Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. Announces Second Quarter Earnings Up 11.9%

and Third Quarter Dividend

Shippensburg, PA (July 24, 2008) – Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: ORRF) is pleased to announce the net operating results for the second quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Second quarter 2008 earnings of $3,603,000 grew by $383,000 over the same period last year, representing an increase of 11.9%. Primary earnings per share were $.56 for second quarter 2008 compared to $.50 per share for second quarter 2007. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $6,853,000, a 12.7% increase over the $6,083,000 earned during the first half of 2007. Primary earnings per share grew 12.6% from $0.95 during the first six months of 2007 to $1.07 in 2008.

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2008 was $8,164,000, up 10.9% from the $7,360,000 realized during the same quarter in 2007. Year-to-date net interest income for 2008 increased to $16,081,000 from $14,520,000, a 10.8% increase over the first half of 2007. For the first six months of 2008, the net interest margin compressed 8 basis points to 3.94%, while the net interest spread increased slightly to 3.56%, versus 3.51% a year ago. The increase in net interest income and spread was achieved despite a 3.25% drop in the prime lending rate over the last 12 months. Balance sheet growth of 13.4% over last year contributed to these solid results. Additionally, growth in non-interest income kept pace with increases in non-interest expense, resulting in an excellent year-to-date efficiency ratio of 55.4%.

Commenting on the second quarter results, Kenneth R. Shoemaker, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “During this period of extreme stress in the financial services industry, we are delighted to report these stellar results. As the numbers demonstrate, our relentless focus on relationship banking is clearly working. For the third year in a row, Orrstown was ranked the best performing publicly traded bank in Pennsylvania in our asset category, and one of the strongest in the country. We look forward to growing our franchise in the months ahead.”

The Board of Directors approved the third quarter cash dividend of $.22 per share payable to shareholders of record on August 9, 2008. This represents an increase of 4.8% over the dividend of $.21 declared during the third quarter of 2007. The dividend will be paid on August 22, 2008. Through three quarters, Orrstown’s cash dividend has increased 6.6% from $.61 per share to $.65 per share.
