ITEM 1     Business


GENERAL


PENSECO FINANCIAL SERVICES CORPORATION,  (the "Company"), which is headquartered
in Scranton,  Pennsylvania, was formed under the general corporation laws of the
State of Pennsylvania in 1997 and is registered as a financial  holding company.
The  Company  became  a  holding  company  upon  the  acquisition  of all of the
outstanding  shares of Penn  Security  Bank and Trust  Company (the  "Bank"),  a
state-chartered   bank,  on  December  31,  1997.  The  Company  is  subject  to
supervision  by the  Federal  Reserve  Board.  The  Bank,  as a  state-chartered
financial institution, is subject to supervision,  regulation and examination by
the Federal Deposit  Insurance  Corporation and the  Pennsylvania  Department of
Banking.

     The Company's  principal  banking office is located at 150 North Washington
Avenue, Scranton, Pennsylvania,  containing trust, investor services, marketing,
audit,  credit card,  human  resources,  executive,  data processing and central
bookkeeping offices. There are eight additional offices.

     Through its banking subsidiary,  the Company generates interest income from
its outstanding loans receivable and its investment  portfolio.  Other income is
generated  primarily  from  merchant  transaction  fees,  trust fees and service
charges on deposit  accounts.  The Company's  primary costs are interest paid on
deposits and  borrowings  and general  operating  expenses.  The Bank provides a
variety of commercial and retail banking  services to business and  professional
customers,  as well as retail  customers,  on a personalized  basis.  The Bank's
primary lending  products are real estate,  commercial and consumer  loans.  The
Bank also offers ATM access,  credit cards,  active investment  accounts,  trust
department services and other various lending,  depository and related financial
services.  The Bank's  primary  deposit  products are savings and demand deposit
accounts and  certificates  of deposit.  The Company also offers  collateralized
repurchase  agreements,  that have a one day maturity, as an alternative deposit
option for its customers.

     The Bank has a third party  marketing  agreement  with  National  Financial
Services (formerly Fiserv Investor Services, Inc.) that allows the bank to offer
a full range of securities,  brokerage and annuity sales to its  customers.  The
Investor  Services  division  is located in the  headquarters  building  and the
services are offered throughout the entire branch system.

     The Company is not dependent  upon a single  customer,  or a few customers,
the loss of one or more of which  would  have a material  adverse  effect on its
operations.  The operations and earnings of the  Corporation  are not materially
affected by seasonal changes or by Federal, state or local environmental laws or
regulations.

FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

This Form 10-K contains forward-looking informational statements, in addition to
the  historical  financial  information  required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  There are certain  risks and  uncertainties  associated  with these
forward-looking statements which could cause actual results to differ materially
from those  stated  herein.  Such risks are  discussed  in the section  entitled
"Management  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations".  These forward-looking  statements reflect management's analysis as
of this point in time.  Readers  should  review the other  documents the Company
periodically files with the Securities and Exchange  Commission in order to keep
apprised of any material changes.


ITEM 1A  Risk Factors


                          RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Credit Risk

Changes in the credit quality of our loan portfolio may impact the level of our
allowance for loan losses.

We make various judgments about the  collectibility of our loans,  including the
creditworthiness  of our  borrowers  and the value of the real  estate and other
assets  serving as collateral for our loans.  In  determining  the amount of the
allowance for loan losses, we review our loans and our loan loss and delinquency
experience, and we evaluate economic conditions. If our judgments are incorrect,
our  allowance  for loan losses may not be  sufficient  to cover future  losses,
which will result in additions to our allowance through increased provisions for
loan losses. In addition,  bank regulators periodically review our allowance for
loan  losses and may  require us to increase  our  provision  for loan losses or
recognize further loan charge-offs.  Increased  provisions for loan losses would
increase our expenses and reduce our profits.





     Nonetheless,  to the  best of  management's  knowledge,  there  are also no
particular  risk  elements in the local  economy that put a group or category of
loans  at  increased  risk.  Also the  Company  is not  dependent  upon a single
customer,  or a few  customers,  the loss of one or more of which  would  have a
material  adverse effect on its  operations.  The operations and earnings of the
Corporation are also not materially affected by seasonal changes.


Market Risk

Changes in interest  rates could affect our  investment  values and net interest
income.

At  December  31,  2005,  the  Company  owned  approximately  $147.9  million of
marketable  securities  available for sale. These securities are carried at fair
value on the  consolidated  balance sheet.  Unrealized  gains or losses on these
securities,  that is, the  difference  between the fair value and the  amortized
cost of these securities,  is reflected in stockholders' equity, net of deferred
taxes.  As of December 31, 2005,  the Company's  available  for sale  marketable
securities  portfolio had a net unrealized gain, net of taxes, of $363. The fair
value of the Company's  available for sale  marketable  securities is subject to
interest  rate  change,  which  would not affect  recorded  earnings,  but would
increase or decrease comprehensive income and stockholders' equity.

     The principal  component of the Company's  earnings is net interest income,
which is the  difference  between  interest and fees earned on  interest-earning
assets and interest paid on deposits and other borrowings.  The most significant
impact on net interest income between periods is derived from the interaction of
changes in the volume of and rates earned or paid on interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing  liabilities.  The  volume  of  earning  dollars  in loans  and
investments,  compared to the volume of interest-bearing liabilities represented
by deposits and  borrowings,  combined with the spread,  produces the changes in
net interest income between periods.

     The Company  continually  monitors the  relationship  of its interest  rate
sensitive assets and liabilities through its Asset/Liability Committee.


Strong competition within our market could affect our profits and growth.

The Bank operates in a competitive environment in which it must share its market
with many local  independent banks as well as several banks which are affiliates
or  branches  of very large  regional  holding  companies.  The Bank  encounters
competition from diversified financial institutions,  ranging in size from small
banks to the nationwide banks operating in its region. The competition  includes
commercial banks,  savings and loan associations,  credit unions,  other lending
institutions and mortgage originators.

     The principal  competitive  factors among the Company's  competitors can be
grouped into two  categories:  pricing and services.  In the  Company's  primary
service area, interest rates on deposits, especially time deposits, and interest
rates  and fees  charged  to  customers  on loans are very  competitive.  From a
service perspective, the Bank competes in areas such as convenience of location,
types of services, service costs and banking hours.


Compliance

We operate in a highly regulated environment and may be affected by changes in
laws and regulations.


The Company is registered as a financial  holding company under the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956,  as amended,  and, as such, is subject to  supervision  and
regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("FRB").  The
Company is required to file quarterly reports of its operations with the FRB.

     As a  financial  holding  company,  the Company is  permitted  to engage in
banking-related  activities as authorized by the Federal Reserve Board, directly
or through  subsidiaries or by acquiring  companies already  established in such
activities subject to the FRB regulations relating to those activities.


     Our  banking  subsidiary,  Penn  Security  Bank  and  Trust  Company,  as a
Pennsylvania  state-chartered financial institution,  is subject to supervision,
regulation and examination by the  Commonwealth  of  Pennsylvania  Department of
Banking and by the Federal Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  (the "FDIC"),  which
insures the Bank's deposits to the maximum extent permitted by law.


Operational Risk

The Company needs to continually  attract and retain qualified personnel for its
operations.





High quality customer service,  as well as efficient and profitable  operations,
are  dependent  on  the  Company's  ability  to  attract  and  retain  qualified
individuals for key positions within the organization.  As of December 31, 2005,
the Company employed 189 full-time  equivalent  employees.  The employees of the
Company are not represented by any collective  bargaining  group.  Management of
the Company considers relations with its employees to be good.


Our operations could be affected if we do not have access to modern and reliable
technology.

The  Company  operates in a  highly-automated  environment,  wherein  almost all
transactions are processed by computer  software to produce  results.  To remain
competitive,  the Company  must  continually  evaluate  the adequacy of its data
processing  capabilities and make revisions as needed.  At the present time, the
Company is upgrading its computer  technology at a total cost of $1.5 million of
which $.7 million is included in fixed  assets at December  31, 2005 but not yet
placed  into  service.  The project is  expected  to be  completed  in the first
quarter of 2006.

     The Company regularly tests its ability to restore data capabilities in the
event of a natural  disaster,  sustained  power  failure or other  inability  to
utilize its primary systems.


Liquidity Risk

Increased  needs for  disbursement of funds on loans and deposits can affect our
liquidity.

The objective of liquidity  management is to maintain a balance  between sources
and uses of funds in such a way that  the cash  requirements  of  customers  for
loans and deposit withdrawals are met in the most economical manner.  Management
monitors its liquidity position  continuously in relation to trends of loans and
deposits for  short-term  as well as long-term  requirements.  Liquid assets are
monitored  on a daily  basis to  assure  maximum  utilization.  Management  also
manages its liquidity  requirements  by maintaining an adequate level of readily
marketable assets and access to short-term funding sources.  Management does not
foresee any adverse trends in liquidity.


Our future pension plan costs and contributions could be unfavorably impacted by
the factors that are used in the actuarial calculations.

     Our costs of providing  non-contributory  defined benefit pension plans are
dependent upon a number of factors,  such as the rates of return on plan assets,
discount rates, the level of interest rates used to measure the required minimum
funding levels of the plans,  future  government  regulation and our required or
voluntary  contributions  made to the plans. While the Company complies with the
minimum funding  requirements under the Employee  Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974,  our  pension  plan  obligations  exceeded  the value of plan assets by
approximately  $1.0 million as of December 31, 2005. An additional  contribution
of this  amount was made to the  Pension  Plan in 2006 to resolve  the  unfunded
liability.  Without  sustained  growth in the pension  investments  over time to
increase  the value of our plan  assets  and  depending  upon the other  factors
impacting our costs as listed above, we could be required to fund our plans with
higher  amounts  of cash  than  are  anticipated  by our  actuaries.  Such  cash
increased  funding  obligations could have a material impact on our liquidity by
reducing our cash flows.

ITEM 7   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
           of Operations

The  information  called for by this item is filed at Exhibit 13 to this  report
and is incorporated in its entirety by reference under this Item 7.


ITEM 7A  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The  information  called for by this item is filed at Exhibit 13 to this  report
and is incorporated in its entirety by reference under this Item 7A.


ITEM 8   Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

The  information  called for by this item is filed at Exhibit 13 to this  report
and is incorporated in its entirety by reference under this Item 8.


ITEM 9   Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and
           Financial Disclosure

There  were no  changes  in or  disagreements  with  accountants  on  matters of
accounting principles or practices or financial statement disclosures in 2005.


ITEM 9A  Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the  participation  of our management,  including
our Chief Executive  Officer and  Controller,  we conducted an evaluation of our
disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and our Controller  concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures  were  effective  as of the end of the period  covered by this annual
report.  Management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting
is  included  under the  heading  "Report on  Internal  Control  Over  Financial
Reporting" at Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The attestation  report
of the registered  public  accounting firm is included under the heading "Report
of the Independent  Registered  Public Accounting Firm" at Item 8 of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

     The Company continually  assesses the adequacy of its internal control over
financial  reporting  and enhances its controls in response to internal  control
assessments, and internal and external audit and regulatory recommendations.  No
change in internal  control over  financial  reporting  during the quarter ended
December  31, 2004 or through  the date of this Annual  Report on Form 10-K have
materially  affected,  or  are  reasonably  likely  to  materially  affect,  the
Company's internal control over financial reporting.

     Because  of its  inherent  limitations,  internal  control  over  financial
reporting  may not prevent or detect  misstatements.  Also,  projections  of any
evaluation  of  effectiveness  to future  periods  are  subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions,  or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


ITEM 9B  Other Information

There are no items required to be reported.


                                    PART III


ITEM 10  Directors and Executive Officers of the Registrant

Code of Ethics

The Company has had for many years a Code of Ethics  applicable to all employees
including  the Company's  principal  Executive  Officer and principal  Financial
Officer  (Controller).  The purpose of the Code is to promote honest and ethical
conduct,  full and fair  disclosures of financial  information,  compliance with
laws and regulations and accountability for actions.


     A copy  of  the  Code  of  Ethics  may  be  obtained,  without  charge,  by
contacting:

       Patrick Scanlon, Controller, Penseco Financial Services Corporation
              150 North Washington Avenue, Scranton, PA 18503-1848
                                 1-800-327-0394





                        AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT


The  Sarbanes-Oxley  Act of 2002 requires the Company to disclose whether or not
its Audit Committee has, as one of its members,  an "Audit  Committee  Financial
Expert", as that term is defined by the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC).

     The Board of Directors has  determined  that the Audit  Committee  does not
have an  "audit  committee  financial  expert"  as that term is  defined  in the
Securities and Exchange  Commission's rules and regulations.  However, the Board
believes that each of the members of the Audit Committee has  demonstrated  that
he is capable of analyzing and evaluating the Company's financial statements and
understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.  Because
the Board believes that the current members of the Audit Committee are qualified
to carry out all of the  duties  and  responsibilities  of the  Company's  Audit
Committee,  the Board  does not  believe  that it is  necessary  at this time to
actively search for an outside person to serve on the Board who would qualify as
an audit committee financial expert.
