NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE A - Basis of Presentation The financial information includes the accounts of Juniata Valley Financial Corp. (the Corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Juniata Valley Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2005. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Juniata Valley Financial Corp. annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. NOTE B - Recent Accounting Pronouncements In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a new rule that amends the compliance dates for Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS No. 123R). The Statement requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements and that this cost be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. FAS No. 123 (Revised 2004) covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. The Company will adopt FAS No. 123 (Revised 2004) on January 1, 2006 and is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company's results of operations. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 ("SAB No. 107"), "Share-Based Payment," providing guidance on option valuation methods, the accounting for income tax effects of share-based payment arrangements upon adoption of FAS No. 123R, and the disclosures in MD&A subsequent to the adoption. The Company will provide SAB No. 107 required disclosures upon adoption of SFAS No. 123R on January 1, 2006, and is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In December 2004, FASB issued FAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, "Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions," is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. FAS No. 153 amends Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of FAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. In June 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Errors Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FAS No. 3." The Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. FAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impractical. APB Opinion No. 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. FAS No. 154 improves the financial reporting because its requirements enhance the consistency of financial reporting between periods. NOTE C - Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, 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 (loss). 8. The components of other comprehensive income and related tax affects are as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, --------------------------- ------------------------- 2005 2004 2005 2004 ------- ------- ------- ------- (In thousands) Unrealized holding gains (losses) on available for sale securities $ 328 $(1,682) $ (565) $(1,456) Less classification adjustment for gains realized in income -- (134) (99) (268) ------- ------- ------- ------- Net unrealized gains (losses) 328 (1,816) (664) (1,724) Tax benefit (expense) (112) 618 226 586 ------- ------- ------- ------- Net of tax amount $ 216 $(1,198) $ (438) $(1,138) ======= ======= ======= ======= NOTE D - Stock Option Plan The Corporation accounts for the 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 Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to stock-based compensation for three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004: For the Quarter Ended For the Six Months Ended --------------------- ------------------------ June 30, June 30, June 30, June 30, 2005 2004 2005 2004 ------- ------- ------ ------- (In thousands, except per share amount) Net income, as reported $ 945 $ 1,575 $ 2,308 $ 2,930 Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards (8) (9) (15) (17) ------- ------- ------ ------- Pro forma net income $ 937 $ 1,566 $ 2,293 $ 2,913 ======= ======= ======= ======= Basic earnings per share: As reported $ .41 $ .69 $ 1.01 $ 1.28 Pro forma $ .41 $ .69 $ 1.01 $ 1.28 Diluted earnings per share: As reported $ .41 $ .69 $ 1.01 $ 1.28 Pro forma $ .41 $ .69 $ 1.00 $ 1.28 9.

Letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Generally, all letters of credit, when issued have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as those that are involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Corporation, generally, holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments. The Corporation had $735,000 of letters of credit as of June 30, 2005. Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of collateral and the enforcement of guarantees would be sufficient to cover the potential amount of future payment required under the corresponding guarantees. The current amount of the liability as of June 30, 2005, for guarantees under letters of credit issued is not material. NOTE F - Defined Benefit Retirement Plan The Corporation has a defined benefit retirement plan covering substantially all of its employees. The benefits are based on years of service and the employees' compensation. The Corporation's funding policy is to contribute annually the maximum amount that can be deducted for federal income taxes purposes. Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to service to date but also for those expected to be earned in the future. Pension expense included the following components for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.

Item 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Forward Looking Statements: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains safe harbor provisions regarding forward-looking statements. When used in this discussion, the words "believes," "anticipates," "contemplates," "expects," and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Those risks and uncertainties include changes in interest rates, risks associated with the effect of opening a new branch, the ability to control costs and expenses, and general economic conditions. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to those forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Critical Accounting Policies: Disclosure of the Corporation's significant accounting policies is included in the notes to the financial statements of the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. Some of these policies are particularly sensitive, requiring significant judgments, estimates, and assumptions to be made by management, most particularly in connection with determining the provision for loan losses and the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses. General The following discusses the financial condition of the Company as of June 30, 2005, as compared to December 31, 2004, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included herein. Introduction Juniata Valley Financial Corp. is a Pennsylvania corporation organized to become the holding company of The Juniata Valley Bank ("Bank"). The Bank is a state-chartered bank located in Juniata, Pennsylvania. Juniata Valley Financial Corp. and its subsidiary bank derive substantially all of their income from banking and bank-related services, including interest earnings on residential real estate, commercial mortgage, commercial, and consumer financings as well as interest earnings on investment securities and deposit services to its customers through 11 locations in central Pennsylvania. Financial Condition: Total assets increased $9,443,000 or 2.4 percent from December 31, 2004 to June 30, 2005. Cash and cash equivalent decreased $3,224,000 or 21.8 percent as the corporation utilized federal funds sold to fund loan growth during the first six months of 2005. Total securities available for sale at June 30, 2005 decreased $4,104,000 or 5.7 percent from December 31, 2004. Total purchases for the period were $3,094,000, while calls, maturities, and principal repayments totaled $6,438,000. Total securities held to maturity at June 30, 2005 increased $3,402,000 or 75.9 percent from December 31, 2004. Total purchases for the period were $4,400,000, while calls, maturities, and principal repayments totaled $1,000,000. A majority of the calls, maturities, and principal repayments in the available for sale portfolio were reinvested in the held to maturity portfolio in order to take advantage of tax anticipation securities. Loans increased $12,241,000 or 4.4 percent from December 31, 2004 to June 30, 2005. Commercial loans increased $4,402,000 or 4.9 percent, installment loans increased $3,201,000 or 5.1 percent, and mortgages increased $3,768,000 or 2.9 percent. Management attributes the increases in lending balances to continued customer referrals, the economic climate within the market area, and competitive rates. The growth in loans was primarily funded by cash and cash equivalents and deposit growth. There are no material loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or special mention which management expects to significantly impact future operating results, liquidity or capital resources. Additionally, management is not aware of any information which would give serious doubt as to the ability of its borrowers to substantially comply with their loan repayment terms. The Corporation's problem loans (i.e., 90 days past due and restructured loans) were not material for all periods presented. Total deposits increased $8,496,000 or 2.6 percent during the first half of 2005. Management has continued to offer attractive interest rates on deposit accounts resulting in both new customers and additional deposits from existing customers. 11. Short-term borrowings increased $1,500,000 or 100 percent during the first six months of 2005. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased $152,000 or 3.2 percent during the period. The increase in short-term borrowings helped to fund the loan growth seen in the first half of 2005. Stockholders' equity decreased $1,637,000 or 3.3 percent from December 31, 2004 to June 30, 2005. Net income of $2,308,000 was offset by dividend declarations of $3,645,000. The purpose of the cash dividends was to return to stockholders part of their investment as well as increase the return on equity for the Corporation. Securities available for sale declined in market value, representing a decrease of $438,000 during the period. Management is not aware of any current recommendations of the regulatory authorities which, if implemented, would have a material effect on the Corporation's liquidity, capital resources, or operations. COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 The Company had net income of $945,000 for the second quarter of 2005. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2005 totaled $.41, compared with $.69 for the three months ended June 30, 2004, a decrease of 40.6 percent. In dollars, net income decreased $630,000 or 40.0 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. Interest on loans increased $291,000 or 6.2 percent in 2005 as compared to 2004. Volume increases in the loan portfolio were responsible for greater income over the period with the average balance of the portfolio increasing $27,418,000 or 10.5 percent while the average interest rate earned on the portfolio decreased 28 basis points from 7.17 percent to 6.89 percent over the period. The substantial growth in the loan portfolio over the past year continued during the second quarter of 2005. Management attributes the increases in lending balances to continued customer referrals, the economic climate within the market area, and competitive rates. The growth in loans was primarily funded by cash and cash equivalents and deposit growth. Interest earned on taxable investment securities decreased $42,000 or 8.0 percent in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to 2004. Maturities and calls of investments which were purchased while interest rates were higher than current rates were not able to be reinvested at similar rates without increasing the duration of the bonds. Management believes that economic indicators show that we are in a rising interest rate period. Interest expense on deposits increased $316,000 or 20.4 percent in 2005 as compared to 2004. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $3,251,000 or 1.1 percent while the average interest rate paid increased to 2.5 percent in 2005 from 2.1 percent in 2004. With the additional increases in short-term interest rates, management expects the average interest rate to increase, but not in direct proportion to the market increase since deposit interest rates lag market rates in general and time deposit rates reprice at maturity, which may vary from 30 days to 5 years. As a result of the aforementioned changes in interest earned and interest paid, net interest income decreased $140,000, or 3.6 percent in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004. The provision for loan losses decreased $77,000 or 100.0 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. The decrease in the provision 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. Noninterest income decreased $154,000 or 16.7 percent in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004. The Company recognized gains on sales of securities of $134,000 in the second quarter of 2004 which were not repeated in 2005 causing the majority of the decrease. The decrease in security gains resulted from management responding to opportunities available to sell securities in the prior year without impacting the overall effective yield of the investment portfolio. Noninterest expenses increased $574,000 or 21.7 percent in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to 2004. Salaries and wages expense increased $332,000 in the second quarter of 2005 as compared to 2004. The majority of this increase is due to severance that was recorded related to an executive who left the company during the second quarter. The increase in employee benefits is due to rising costs and normal increases. The increase of $52,000 in equipment cost is from increased usage of the Internet banking and telephone banking products and installation of the teller and platform automation systems. Other expenses increased primarily due to additional costs related to compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley section 404. 12. COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004 The Company had net income of $2,308,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2005, totaled $1.01, compared with $1.28 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, a decrease of 21.1 percent. In dollars, net income decreased $622,000 or 21.2 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. Interest on loans increased $567,000 or 6.2 percent in 2005 as compared to 2004 with an increase in the average investment in loans of $26,527,000 or 10.3 percent in 2005. Management attributes the increases in lending balances to continued customer referrals, the economic climate within the market area, and competitive rates. The growth in loans was primarily funded by cash and cash equivalents and deposit growth. The average interest rate earned on these loans declined from 7.1 percent in 2004 to 6.9 percent due to lower offering rates in recent years combined with repricing of the variable portion of the portfolio. With the recent announcement of an increase in the prime rate of interest, we expect to see a gradual increase in interest earned based upon reprices of variable interest rate loans combined with originations at higher rates. Interest earned on taxable investment securities declined $114,000 or 10.5 percent during the first half of 2005 as compared to 2004 due to a combination of a smaller volume of investments due to repayment and maturities and lower interest rates earned. Interest expense relating to deposits increased $366,000 or 11.5 percent in the first half of 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004. This increase in expense is directly related to growth in deposits and higher interest rates paid with the average rate paid in 2005 of 2.4 percent compared to 2.2 percent in 2004. With the additional increases in short term interest rates, management expects the average interest rate to increase, but not in direct proportion to the market increase since deposit interest rates lag market rates in general and time deposit rates reprice at maturity, which may vary from 30 days to 5 years. As a result of the aforementioned changes in interest earned and interest paid, net interest income decreased $81,000, or 1.1 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004. The provision for loan loss decreased by $129,000 or 82.2 percent in the first half of 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004. The decrease in the provision 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. Net charge-offs at June 30, 2005, were $29,000 compared to net charge-offs of $53,000 at June 30, 2004. Noninterest income decreased $122,000 or 7.0 percent in the first half of 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004. The Company recognized gains on sales of securities of $268,000 in the first half of 2004, whereas only $99,000 in gains were recognized in 2005 causing the majority of the decrease. The decrease in security gains resulted from management responding to opportunities available to sell securities in prior year without impacting the overall effective yield of the investment portfolio. Customer service fees increased $79,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004 commensurate with activity in deposits. The decrease in trust department income is a result of a decrease in estate fees in 2005 over 2004. Salaries and employee benefits increased $369,000 or 17.7 percent for the first half of 2005 as compared to 2004. The majority of this increase is due to severance that was recorded related to an executive who left the company during the second quarter. The $50,000 increase in employee benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to 2004, can be attributed to increases in benefit costs overall. Other noninterest expense increased $257,000 or 8.1 percent with higher expenses in a number of areas. The increase of $78,000 in equipment cost is from increased usage of the Internet banking and telephone banking products and installation of the teller and platform automation systems. Other expenses increased primarily due to additional costs related to compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley section 404. Liquidity: The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that sufficient funding is available, at a reasonable cost, to meet the ongoing operational cash needs of the Corporation and to take advantage of income producing opportunities as they arise. While the desired level of liquidity will vary depending upon a variety of factors, it is the primary goal of the Corporation to maintain a high level of liquidity in all economic environments. Principal sources of asset liquidity are provided by securities maturing in one year or less, other short-term investments such as federal funds sold and cash and due from banks. Liability liquidity, which is more difficult to measure, can be met by attracting deposits and maintaining the core deposit base. The Corporation is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh for the purpose of providing short-term liquidity when other sources are unable to fill these needs. 13. The Corporation borrowed $5,000,000 from Federal Home Loan Bank in August of 2004, for a two-year term with a fixed interest rate of 2.86 percent which were used for investment purposes. Funding derived from securities sold under agreements to repurchase began in September of 2004 through new corporate cash management accounts for business customers. This allows the bank an ability to pay interest on corporate checking accounts. In view of the primary and secondary sources previously mentioned, Management believes that the Corporation's liquidity is capable of providing the funds needed to meet loan demand. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements: The Corporation's financial statements do not reflect various off-balance sheet arrangements that are made in the normal course of business, which may involve some liquidity risk, credit risk, and interest rate risk. These commitments consist mainly of loans approved but not yet funded, unused lines of credit, and letters of credit made under the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments. 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. Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the financial performance obligation of a customer to a third party. Unused commitments at June 30, 2005, were $39,454,000. 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 to the Corporation. Management believes that any amounts actually drawn upon can be funded in the normal course of operations. The Corporation has no investment in or financial relationship with any unconsolidated entities that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on liquidity or the availability of capital resources. Interest Rate Sensitivity: Interest rate sensitivity management is the responsibility of the Asset/Liability Management Committee. This process involves the development and implementation of strategies to maximize net interest margin, while minimizing the earnings risk associated with changing interest rates. The traditional gap analysis identifies the maturity and re-pricing terms of all assets and liabilities. Generally a liability sensitive position indicates that more liabilities than assets are expected to re-price within the time period and that falling interest rates could positively affect net interest income while rising interest rates could negatively affect net interest income. However, the traditional analysis does not accurately reflect the Corporation's interest rate sensitivity since the rates on core deposits generally do not change as quickly as market rates. Historically net interest income has, in fact, not been subject to the degree of sensitivity indicated by the traditional analysis at The Juniata Valley Bank. Capital Adequacy: The Bank's regulatory capital ratios for the periods presented are as follows: Risk Weighted Assets Ratio: Actual Required ------ -------- June 30, December 31, June 30 December 31, 2005 2004 2005 2004 ------ ------ ---- ---- TIER I 16.34% 17.54% 4.0% 4.0% TIER I & II 17.45% 18.69% 8.0% 8.0% Total Assets Leveraged Ratio: TIER I 10.96% 11.58% 4.0% 4.0% At June 30, 2005, both the Corporation and the Bank exceeded the regulatory requirements to be considered a "well capitalized" financial institution. 14. ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk: From January 1, 2001 to March 31, 2004, the Federal Reserve lowered the federal funds rate 13 times by 500 basis points. Since June 29, 2004, the Federal Reserve raised interest rates by 225 basis points. As of June 30, 2005, little impact has been experienced. Net interest margin for the Corporation was 4.5 percent at June 30, 2004 and decreased to 4.0 percent at June 30, 2005. Currently, the Corporation has approximately 32.00 percent of its deposits in NOW, money market, and savings accounts, which it considers core deposits. These types of interest bearing deposit accounts carry lower rates relative to other types of deposits. Because of this, these accounts have contributed significantly to the net interest margin. The Corporation anticipates future federal fund rates increases; therefore, future rate increases on the core deposit accounts and there will be further compression on net interest margin. The added risk in this interest rate environment is that as the rates on the core deposits are so low, investors could migrate to other types of accounts paying higher rates. The last financial simulation performed by the Bank as of March 31, 2005, showed a possible decline in net interest income of $168,000 in a -100 basis point rate shock over a one-year period. If rates continue to increase, in a +100 basis point shock over a one-year period, the simulation performed shows a possible $7,000 increase to net interest income. This reflected a change in the assumptions that the rates on NOW and savings accounts would remain constant in a -100 or +100 basis point rate shock. The net interest income at risk position remains within the guidelines established by the Bank's asset/liability policy. The Bank continues to monitor and manage its rate sensitivity during these unusual times. No material change has been noted in the Bank's equity value at risk. Please refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2004 for further discussion of this matter. Item 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act. INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING During the second quarter, the Company's management continued to make improvements to resolve an identified material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. The Company lacked sufficient personnel in the Finance Department to review information and to assure that the information is calculated correctly and properly disclosed in the financial statements and related footnotes. It was noted that greater expertise was required in certain complex areas of financial reporting, including the calculation of income taxes, stock options and employee benefit plans. During the quarter, management has retained the services of an independent accounting firm for assistance in the preparation and review of financial information, particularly with respect to non-routine, major, and complex financial transactions. 15.
