FULTON FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-1 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 1995
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending December 31, 1995.
NOTE B - NET INCOME PER SHARE
Net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding.
NOTE C - STOCK DIVIDEND
The Board of Directors declared a 10% stock dividend on April 17, 1995 payable
June 9, 1995 to shareholders of record as of May 15, 1995. All share and per-
share information has been restated to reflect the effect of this stock
dividend. This stock dividend has been reflected in the accompanying
consolidated balance as of June 30, 1995.
NOTE D - ADOPTION OF SFAS NO. 114
Allowance for Loan Losses
-------------------------
The Corporation has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114,
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" effective January 1, 1995.
Under the new standard, the 1995 allowance for credit losses related to loans
that are identified for evaluation in accordance with Statement 114 is based on
discounted cash flows using the loan's initial effective interest rate or the
fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. Prior to
1995, the allowance for credit losses related to these loans was based on
undiscounted cash flows or the fair value of the collateral for collateral
dependent loans.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by
management to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio. Management's
determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the risk
characteristics of the portfolio, past loan loss experience, local economic
conditions, and such other relevant factors. The allowance is increased by
provisions for loan losses charged against income. The allowance is based on
-6-
management's estimates, and actual losses may vary from the current estimates.
These estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments become necessary,
they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known.
At June 30, 1995, the recorded investment in loans that are considered to be
impaired under Statement 114 was $16.2 million (of which $12.7 million were on a
nonaccrual basis). Included in this amount is $16.1 million of impaired loans
for which the related allowance for credit losses is $3.1 million and $153,000
of impaired loans that as a result of write-downs do not have an allowance for
credit losses. The average recorded investment in impaired loans during the
quarter ended June 30, 1995 was approximately $17.0 million.
Interest Income Recognition
---------------------------
The Corporation applies all payments received on impaired loans to principal
until such time as the principal is paid off, after which time any additional
payments received are recognized as interest income. For the quarter ended June
30, 1995, the Corporation recognized such interest income using the cash basis
of income recognition of approximately $223,210.
Other Real Estate Owned and In-Substance Foreclosures
-----------------------------------------------------
Assets acquired in settlement of mortgage loan indebtedness are recorded as
other real estate owned and are included in other assets at the lower of the
estimated net realizable value of the asset or the carrying amount of the loan.
Loans identified as in-substance foreclosures are also included in other assets
at their estimated net realizable value.
In accordance with Statement 114, a loan is classified as in-substance
foreclosure when the Company has taken possession of the collateral regardless
of whether formal foreclosure proceedings take place. Loans previously
classified as in-substance foreclosure but for which the Company had not taken
possession of the collateral have been reclassified to loans. This
reclassification did not impact the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.
Costs to maintain the assets and subsequent gains and losses attributable to
their disposal are included in other income or other expenses.
NOTE E - MERGERS
Management anticipates that the pending merger with Delaware Bankshares Corp.
will be effective in the third quarter of 1995. The effect of the merger, which
will be accounted for as a pooling of interests, will be to increase total
assets by approximately $100 million.

FULTON FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL CONDITION
-------------------
At June 30, 1995, total assets were $3,133,397,000, reflecting an increase of
$50,824,000 or 1.6% from December 31, 1994.
Loans increased by $18,975,000 or .9% as loans originated exceeded scheduled
maturities and sales of mortgage loans. Investment securities decreased
$9,301,000 or 1.4%, reflecting the maturities of held to maturity securities,
maturities and sales of available for sale securities, offset somewhat by the
increase in the market value of available for sale securities.
A portion of the funds generated from the decrease in investment securities were
invested in Federal funds sold, which reflected an increase of $23,000,000.
On the liability side of the balance sheet, total deposits at June 30, 1995
showed an increase of $87,096,000 or 3.5% from year-end 1994 totals. These
funds, along with a portion of the funds generated from the decrease in
securities, were used to reduce Federal funds purchased and securities sold
under agreements to repurchase, which decreased $82,806,000 or 43.2%.
Recently, the Corporation has used Federal funds purchased and securities sold
under agreements to repurchase to fund asset growth, as deposit growth has
lagged loan growth. Although the first and second quarters of 1995 have seen a
reversal of this trend, the Corporation continues to focus on increasing deposit
levels and minimizing the use of more short-term volatile funding sources.
Capital Resources
-----------------
The capital resources of the Corporation as represented by the two major
components of regulatory capital, shareholders' equity and allowance for loan
losses continued to grow during 1995, increasing 5.4% and .8%, respectively,
during the six months ended June 30, 1995.
Current capital guidelines attempt to measure the adequacy of a bank holding
company's capital by taking into consideration the differences in risk
associated with holding various types of assets as well as exposure to off-
balance sheet commitments. The guidelines call for a minimum Tier I risk-based
capital percentage of 4.0% and a minimum total risk-based capital of 8.0%. Tier
I capital includes common shareholders' equity, non-cumulative preferred stock,
a percentage of cumulative preferred stock, and minority interests less goodwill
and non-qualified intangible assets. Total capital includes all Tier I capital
components plus
-8-
total cumulative preferred stock, hybrid debt-capital securities, qualified
subordinated debt and the allowance for loan losses.
The Corporation is also subject to "leverage capital" requirements, which
compares capital (using the definition of Tier I capital) to total balance sheet
assets and is intended to supplement the risk-based capital ratios in measuring
capital adequacy. The minimum acceptable leverage capital ratio is 3% for
institutions which are highly-rated in terms of safety and soundness and which
are not experiencing or anticipating any significant growth. Other institutions
are expected to maintain capital levels at least one or two percent above the
minimum.
As of June 30, 1995, the Corporation's capital ratios exceed all of the minimum
ratios as set forth above.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Fulton Financial Corporation's net income increased by $1,487,000, or 15.7%, to
$10,956,000 during the second quarter of 1995 compared to the same quarter in
1994. This increase was attributable primarily to an increase in net interest
income which was partially offset by an increase in other expenses.
Net Interest Income
-------------------
Net interest income increased by $2,274,000 or 7.6%. The following table
presents the components of this increase:
Three Months Ended June 30 Change
-------------------------- ------------
1995 1994 $ %
---- ---- - -
(Dollars in Thousands)
Interest income $56,312 $46,670 $9,642 20.7

------- ------- ------ ----
Net interest income $32,095 $29,821 $2,274 7.6
======= ======= ====== ====
As summarized in the following table, the 20.7% increase in interest income
reflects the effect of the growth in average interest-earning assets and the
increase in the yield on these assets. The 43.7% increase in interest expense
reflects the effect of the growth in interest-bearing liabilities and the
increase in the cost of these funds.

Three Months Ended June 30 %
1995 1994 Change
---------------------------------
(Dollars in Thousands)
Average interest-earning assets $2,819,214 $2,583,043 9.1%
Yield on earning assets 8.18% 7.42% 10.2%
Average interest-bearing
liabilities $2,335,108 $2,145,169 8.8%
Cost of interest-bearing
liabilities 4.15% 3.15% 31.7%
The increase in both average interest-earning assets and average interest-
bearing liabilities is primarily due to the acquisition of Central Pennsylvania
Financial Corp. (CPFC), which was effective October 1, 1994 and was accounted
for as a purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities. CPFC had
approximately $260 million in assets as of the acquisition date.
The increase in yield and cost of funds from 1994 to 1995 reflects the impact of
the increasing interest rates experienced during 1994 and 1995. The
Corporation's average prime rate increased over 30%, from 6.89% for the second
quarter of 1994 to 9.00% for the second quarter of 1995. The Corporation has
experienced a greater increase in its cost of funds than in its yields,
primarily as a result of continuing competition from both bank and nonbank
providers.
Management monitors the interest sensitivity position of the Corporation
continually to ensure proper adherence to its established policy regarding
interest rate risk. The following table shows the interest sensitivity gaps for
four different time intervals based on scheduled amortization, maturity, and
repricing opportunities as of June 30, 1995.
Daily 0-90 91-180 181-365
Adjustable Days Days Days
------------------------------------------
GAP 1.16 1.07 1.01 1.28
CUMULATIVE GAP 1.16 1.13 1.11 1.15
The Corporation's policy provides for the cumulative six month gap to be
maintained between .85 and 1.15.
Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
---------------------------------------
The provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 1995 was $503,000
compared to $501,000 for the similar period of 1994 and is reflective of the
continuing low levels of nonperforming loans and related charge-offs. The 1.60%
ratio representing the loan loss allowance in relation to gross loans less
unearned income as of June 30, 1995 is consistent with that ratio of 1.61% at
December
-10-
31, 1994 and is considered prudent by management in light of the current
economic conditions and the quality of the loan portfolio.
The following table summarizes the Corporation's nonperforming assets. Note
that amounts which would have been presented as in-substance foreclosures as of
December 31, 1994 are included in nonaccrual loans as of June 30, 1995.

During the second quarter of 1995, other income increased by $266,000, or 4.0%,
when compared to the same period of 1994. This increase reflects the increases
in service charges on deposit accounts of $77,000 or 3.4%, other service charges
and fees of $130,000 or 8.3%, and the gain on sale of mortgage loans of $49,000,
or 17.2%.
The increase in other service charges and fees reflects a significant increase
in mortgage servicing fees as a result of the servicing portfolio acquired from
CPFC in the fourth quarter of 1994.
Other Expenses
--------------
For the second quarter of 1995, total other expenses were $24,147,000, an
increase of $816,000, or 3.5%, over the similar period in 1994. The categories
contributing to this increase were salaries and employee benefits, increasing
$473,000, or 4.0%, net occupancy expense, increasing $176,000, or 10.2%, and
special services, increasing $232,000 or 18.47%. These increases are primarily
due to the operating expenses related to the branches which were acquired from
CPFC on October 1, 1994. Also contributing to the increase in other expenses is
approximately $266,000 of goodwill amortization as a result of the acquisition.

Income Taxes
------------
Income tax expense increased $235,000, to $3,416,000, for the quarter ended June
30, 1995. This increase is directly attributable to the increase in pretax
income. The effective tax rate was 23.8% in 1995 compared to 25.2% in 1994.
Six Months 1995 versus Six Months 1994
--------------------------------------
Fulton Financial Corporation's net income increased by $2,735,000, or 14.3%, to
$21,846,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1995 compared to the six months
ended June 30, 1994. This increase was attributable primarily to an increase in
net interest income which was partially offset by an increase in other expenses
and a decrease in other income.
Net Interest Income
-------------------
Net interest income increased by $5,995,000 or 10.3%. The following table
presents the components of this increase:
Six Months Ended June 30 Change
------------------------- ------------
1995 1994 $ %
---- ---- - -
(Dollars in Thousands)
Interest income $111,433 $91,005 $20,428 22.4
Interest expense 47,431 32,998 14,433 43.7
-------- ------- ------- ----
Net interest income $ 64,002 $58,007 $ 5,995 10.3
======== ======= ======= ====
As summarized in the following table, the 22.4% increase in interest income
reflects the effect of the growth in average interest-earning assets and the
increase in the yield on these assets. The 43.7% increase in interest expense
reflects the effect of the growth in interest-bearing liabilities and the
increase in the cost of these funds.
-12-
Six Months Ended June 30 %
1995 1994 Change
-----------------------------------
(Dollars in Thousands)
Average interest-earning assets $2,815,538 $2,552,703 10.3%
Yield on earning assets 8.13% 7.34% 10.8%
Average interest-bearing
liabilities $2,343,732 $2,123,264 10.4%
Cost of interest-bearing
liabilities 4.07% 3.13% 30.0%
The increase in both average interest-earning assets and average interest-
bearing liabilities is primarily due to the acquisition of Central Pennsylvania
Financial Corp. (CPFC), which was effective October 1, 1994 and was accounted
for as a purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities. CPFC had
approximately $260 million in assets as of the acquisition date.
The increase in yield and cost of funds from 1994 to 1995 reflects the impact of
the increasing interest rates experienced during 1994 and 1995. The
Corporation's average prime rate increased over 38%, from 6.45% for the six
months ended June 30, 1994 to 8.91% for the six months ended June 30, 1995. The
Corporation has experienced a greater increase in its cost of funds than in its
yields, primarily as a result of continuing competition from both bank and
nonbank providers.
Provision for Loan Losses
-------------------------
The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 1995 was
$1,033,000 compared to $1,010,000 for the similar period of 1994 and is
reflective of the continuing low levels of nonperforming loans and related
charge-offs.
Other Income
------------
Other income decreased by $265,000, or 1.9%, for the six months ended June 30,
1995 compared to the same period of 1994. This decrease reflects the decrease
in investment securities gains of $663,000 or 39.4% and gain on sale of mortgage
loans of $265,000, or 28.5%, offset by increases in trust department income of
$109,000 or 3.0%, service charges on deposit accounts of $170,000 or 3.9% and
other service charges and fees of $384,000 or 12.9%.
The increase in other service charges and fees reflects a significant increase
in mortgage servicing fees as a result of the servicing portfolio acquired from
CPFC in the fourth of 1994. The decrease in investment securities gains is a
result of management's policy of realizing such gains only when deemed prudent
to do so, based upon the current and expected fair market values of the
individual securities within the equity portfolio.
-13-
The decrease in gain on sale of mortgage loans reflects the impact of the higher
interest rates in effect during the second quarter of 1995 as compared to the
second quarter of 1994, when the Corporation was benefitting from continuing
significant refinancing activity.
Other Expenses
--------------
For the six months ended June 30, 1995, total other expenses were $47,692,000,
an increase of $2,398,000, or 5.3%, over the similar period in 1994. The
categories contributing to this increase were salaries and employee benefits,
increasing $1,094,000, or 4.7%, net occupancy expense, increasing $1,360,000 or
38.4%; and other service charges and fees, increasing $384,000 or 12.9% These
increases were primarily due to the operating expenses related to the branches
which were acquired from CPFC on October 1, 1994. Also contributing to the
increase in other expenses is approximately $266,000 of goodwill amortization as
a result of the acquisition.
Income Taxes
------------
Income tax expense increased $573,000, to $6,773,000, for the six months ended
June 30, 1995. This increase was directly attributable to the increase in pretax
income. The effective tax rate was 23.7% in 1995 compared to 24.5% in 1994.
