BASIS OF PRESENTATION WSFS Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") is the parent of Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (the "Bank"). The consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 include the accounts of the parent company, the Bank and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, WSFS Credit Corporation, 838 Investment Group, Inc., Community Credit Corporation and Star States Development Company. The consolidated statement of condition as of June 30, 1997, the consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 are unaudited and include all adjustments solely of a normal recurring nature which management believes are necessary for a fair presentation. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods' financial statements to conform them to the June 30, 1997 presentation. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the expected results for the full year ending December 31, 1997. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation's 1996 Annual Report. 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share is computed by dividing income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the periods presented. Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of certain outstanding stock options. -6- WSFS FINANCIAL CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL WSFS Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") is a savings and loan holding company headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware. Substantially, all of the Corporation's assets are held by its subsidiary, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (the "Bank" or "WSFS"), the largest thrift institution headquartered in Delaware and among the four largest financial institutions in the state on the basis of total deposits. The Corporation's market area is the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States which is characterized by a diversified manufacturing and service economy. The banking operations of WSFS are presently conducted from 16 retail banking offices located in the Wilmington and Dover, Delaware areas. The Bank provides residential real estate, commercial real estate, commercial and consumer lending services and funds these activities primarily by attracting retail deposits. Deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Additional subsidiaries of the Bank include WSFS Credit Corporation ("WCC"), which is engaged primarily in motor vehicle leasing, and 838 Investment Group, Inc. which markets various insurance and mutual fund products through the Bank's branch system. Community Credit Corporation ("CCC") specializes in consumer loans secured by first and second mortgages. An additional subsidiary, Star States Development Company ("SSDC") is currently inactive with the exception of one remaining parcel of land which is being marketed for sale. In November 1994, the Bank acquired Providential Home Income Plan, Inc. ("Providential"), a San Francisco, California-based reverse mortgage lender. The management and operations of Providential were merged into the Bank in November 1996. FINANCIAL CONDITION, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY Financial Condition Total assets grew $150.9 million during the first six months of 1997 to $1.5 billion. This increase included an $85.9 million increase in loans, a $26.6 million increase in mortgage-backed securities and a $25.3 million increase in investment securities. In addition, short-term investments increased $18.0 million. Loan growth included increases in commercial loans of $36.0 million, leases of $28.3 million, consumer loans of $15.9 million and commercial real-estate loans of $12.7 million. The increase in commercial loans was due primarily to a $35.5 million loan to refinance an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP") note of a company. Approximately 80% of the loan is secured by U.S. treasury securities. The growth in mortgage-backed securities reflects the purchase of $69.8 million in high quality collateralized mortgage obligations in the first quarter of 1997, offset in part by principal repayments. The growth in investment securities included purchases of $20.0 million in U.S. treasury securities and $10.0 million in government agency notes. Total liabilities increased $148.2 million between December 31, 1996 and June 30, 1997. Federal Home Loan Bank advances and securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased $82.6 million and $48.3 million, respectively. These additional borrowings were utilized to fund the previously described asset growth. In addition, deposits increased $10.6 million during the six month period to $755.5 million at June 30, 1997. Interest credited on deposits during the six month period totaled $6.8 million for a net $3.8 million deposit inflow. Capital Resources Stockholders' equity increased $2.7 million between December 31, 1996 and June 30, 1997. This increase reflects net income of $8.2 million for the first six months of 1997 and a $259,000 increase in the net unrealized gains on securities available-for-sale. These increases to stockholders' equity were partially offset by the repurchase of 507,409 shares of treasury stock for $5.8 million. At June 30, 1997, the Corporation held 2,162,609 shares of its treasury stock at a cost of $20.5 million. -7- A table presenting the Bank's consolidated capital position relative to the minimum regulatory requirements as of June 30, 1997 follows (dollars in thousands):
Consolidated Regulatory Bank Capital Requirement Excess ------------------------ -------------------------- ----------------------- Percentage of Percentage of Percentage of Amount Assets Amount Assets Amount Assets ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ Tangible Capital ................... $95,757 6.37% $22,554 1.50% $73,203 4.87% Core Capital ....................... 96,406 6.41 60,169 4.00 36,237 2.41 Tier 1 Capital ..................... 96,406 9.87 39,090 4.00 57,316 5.87 Risk-based Capital ................. 102,154 10.45 78,180 8.00 23,974 2.45
Under Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) capital regulations, savings institutions such as the Bank must maintain "tangible" capital equal to 1.5% of adjusted total assets, "core" capital equal to 4.0% of adjusted total assets and "total" or "risk-based" capital (a combination of core and "supplementary" capital) equal to 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. In addition, OTS regulations impose certain restrictions on savings associations that have a total risk-based capital ratio that is less than 8.0%, a ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of less than 4.0% or a ratio of tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets of less than 4.0% (or 3.0% if the institution is rated Composite 1 under the OTS examination rating system). For purposes of these regulations, tier 1 capital has the same definition as core capital. At June 30, 1997, the Bank is classified as a "well capitalized" institution and is in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements. Management anticipates that the Bank will continue to be classified as well-capitalized. Liquidity The OTS requires institutions, such as the Bank, to maintain a 5.0% minimum liquidity ratio of cash and qualified assets to net withdrawable deposits and borrowings due within one year. At June 30, 1997, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 7.1% compared to 8.0% at December 31, 1996. Additionally, the Corporation is required to maintain a reserve of 100% of the aggregate interest expense for 12 full calendar months on the $29.1 million of senior notes. The interest reserve requirement on the senior notes at June 30, 1997 was approximately $3.2 million. NONPERFORMING ASSETS The table on the following page sets forth the Corporation's nonperforming assets, restructured loans and past due loans at the dates indicated. Past due loans are loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest payments but which remain on accrual status because they are considered well secured and in the process of collection. -8-

(1) Excludes loans held for sale. Nonperforming assets increased $1.2 million between December 31, 1996 and June 30, 1997. This increase included a $6.2 million restructured commercial real estate loan which was transferred to nonperforming assets. This was offset in part by the sale of a $5.1 million asset acquired through foreclosure. Nonperforming investments in real estate declined $511,000 during the first six months of 1997. This decrease resulted from the partial write-down of the Corporation's investment in undeveloped land, intended for single family housing. An analysis of the change in the balance of nonperforming assets is presented as follows:

-9- The timely identification of problem loans is a key element in the Corporation's strategy to manage its loan portfolios. Timely identification enables the Corporation to take appropriate action and, accordingly, minimize losses. An asset review system which was established to monitor the asset quality of the Corporation's loans and investments in real estate portfolios facilitates the identification of problem assets. In general, this system utilizes guidelines established by federal regulation; however, there can be no assurance that the levels or the categories of problem loans and assets established by the Bank are the same as those which would result from a regulatory examination. INTEREST SENSITIVITY The matching of maturities or repricing periods of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities to ensure a favorable interest rate spread and mitigate exposure to fluctuations in interest rates is the Corporation's primary focus for achieving its asset/liability management strategies. Management regularly reviews interest-rate sensitivity of the Corporation and adjusts sensitivity within acceptable tolerance ranges established by management as needed. The excess of interest-earning assets over interest-bearing liabilities that mature within one year (interest-sensitivity gap) decreased from December 31, 1996 by $19.1 million to $33.3 million at June 30, 1997. The decrease was due primarily to the Corporation's continuing effort to effectively manage interest rate risk. Additionally, interest-sensitive assets as a percentage of interest-sensitive liabilities within one year window declined to 104.6% at June 30, 1997 compared to 108.5% at December 31, 1996. Likewise, the one year interest-sensitivity gap as a percentage of total assets decreased to 2.2% from 3.9% at December 31, 1996. COMPARISON FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996 Results of Operations The Corporation reported net income of $4.2 million, or $.33 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $3.3 million, or $.24 per share, for the second quarter of 1996. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was $8.2 million, or $.65 per share, compared to $6.4 million, or $.44 per share, for the same period last year. Net income grew 26% and 30% between comparable three and six month periods while earnings per share grew 38% and 48% during the same periods. Earnings per share were favorably impacted by common stock repurchased during 1996 and 1997. The higher level of earnings for both the three and six month periods reflect an increase in net interest income of $879,000 and $1.9 million. This increase resulted primarily from the growth in interest-earning assets. Noninterest income increased $467,000 and $1.1 million between the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. This rise was primarily attributable to changes in the deposit fee structure in 1997. Noninterest expenses increased $518,000 and $523,000 between the three and six months ending June 30, 1997 and 1996. This increase was due in part to the addition of two new branches in the third quarter of 1996 and an increase in marketing and business development activity. Net Interest Income The tables on the following two pages, dollars expressed in thousands, provides information concerning the balances, yields and rates on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities during the periods indicated. -10-

(4) Includes commercial mortgage loans. (5) Includes securities available-for-sale. -12- Net interest income increased $879,000 between the second quarter of 1997 and 1996 and $1.9 million between the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. This increase resulted from the growth of interest-earning assets which outpaced the growth of interest-bearing liabilities. The interest rate spread and margin decreased between both periods as a result of additional wholesale investment purchases as well as the impact of the ESOP note on pre-tax income. Prevailing economic conditions greatly influence net interest income and the levels of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management anticipates a nominal increase in interest rates during the remainder of 1997. The projected interest rate environment in conjunction with the current asset/liability management strategies are anticipated to favorably impact net interest income. Provision for Loan Losses The following table represents a summary of the changes in the allowance for loan losses during the periods indicated:
Six Months Ended Year Ended June 30, 1997 December 31, 1996 ------------------------ ----------------- (Dollars in Thousands) Beginning balance ............................................ $24,740 $24,167 Transfer from lease residual reserve ......................... 362 Provision for loan losses .................................... 1,199 2,015 Charge-offs: Residential real estate ................................. 66 185 Commercial real estate (1) .............................. 400 416 Commercial............................................... 70 605 Consumer (2) ............................................ 769 880 --------- ----------- Total charge-offs..................................... 1,305 2,086 --------- ---------- Recoveries: Residential real estate ................................. 1 15 Commercial real estate (1) .............................. 2 4 Commercial .............................................. 13 15 Consumer (2) ............................................ 108 248 ---------- ---------- Total recoveries ..................................... 124 282 ---------- ---------- Net charge-offs ...................................... 1,181 1,804 --------- --------- Ending balance ............................................... $24,758 $24,740 ======= ======= Net charge-offs to average gross loans outstanding, net of unearned income (3) .................................. .27% .22% ========== ==========
(1) Includes commercial mortgages and construction loans. (2) Includes lease financings. (3) Ratio for the six months ended June 30, 1997 is annualized. The provision for loan losses increased by $125,000 between the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, and $391,000 between comparable six month periods. These increases were due in part to loan growth and management's continuing review of the loan portfolio. -13- Other Income Noninterest income increased $467,000 and $1.1 million between the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. The majority of this increase resulted from service charges on deposits which grew $316,000 and $746,000 between comparable three and six month periods. This growth reflects the implementation of a new fee structure which began January 1, 1997. Other Expenses Noninterest expenses increased $518,000 and $523,000 between the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. The general growth in noninterest expenses relates to the opening of two new branches and increased marketing and business development. The comparability between of periods of certain expense line items has been affected by the strategic technology alliance entered into on March 1, 1997 between WSFS and ALLTEL (the company that has been managing the Corporation's data processing for eight years). Under this five year agreement, ALLTEL, in addition to providing data processing, will also employ the on-site back office personnel and manage deposit and loan operation functions. As a result, certain costs, most of which would have been previously classified as salaries and personnel related expenses, are now classified as outsourced operations. The cost of outsourced operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 were $647,000 and $862,000, respectively. Consequently, salaries declined $435,000 and $855,000 between the same periods. Other factors contributing to the rise in noninterest expenses include marketing expenses which increased $100,000 between the second quarter 1997 and 1996 and $210,000 between comparable six month periods. In addition, occupancy expenses increased $92,000 and $144,000 between the comparable three and six month periods, respectively. This rise resulted primarily from the opening of two branches in the second half of 1996. Management continues to review existing operations as well as other income opportunities in order to enhance earnings. Accordingly, other income and other expenses may fluctuate during the year. Income Taxes The Corporation and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return and separate state income tax returns. Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109 which requires the recording of deferred income taxes for the tax consequences of "temporary differences". The Corporation recorded a provision for income taxes during the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 of $1.6 million and $3.5 million, respectively, compared to an income tax provision of $1.8 and $3.3 million for the same periods in 1996. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 were 28% and 30%, respectively, compared to 35% and 34% for the same periods in 1996. This reduction in rates reflects the recognition in the financial statement of certain tax benefits which previously had an associated valuation reserve because it was deemed more likely than not that the benefits would not be recognized, and interest income from a loan which is partially excludable from income taxes. The Corporation analyzes its projections of taxable income on an ongoing basis and makes adjustments to its provision for income taxes accordingly. -14- ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS In March 1997 the Financial Accounting Standards board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share" (EPS). This statement, which supersedes APB Opinion No. 15, simplifies the standards for computing EPS and makes them comparable to international standards. SFAS No. 128 replaces the current "primary" and "fully diluted" earnings per share with "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the company. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to fully diluted EPS pursuant to APB Opinion No. 15. SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements issued for the periods ending December 31, 1997. Early application is not permitted and once applied, prior period restatement is required. If this statement would have been in effect for these financial statements, the reported EPS would have been as follows: For the three months For the six months ended June 30, ended June 30, --------------------- ------------------ 1997 1996 1997 1996 ---- ---- ---- ---- Earnings per share: Basic $ .33 $ 24 $.65 $.44 Diluted .33 .24 .65 .44 In June 1997, the FASB adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income". According to the statement, all items of "comprehensive income" are to be reported in a "financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements". Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from nonowner sources. Along with net income, examples of comprehensive income include foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, changes in the market value of a futures contract that qualifies as a hedge of an asset reported at fair value, and minimum pension liability adjustments. Currently, the comprehensive income of the Corporation would consist primarily of net income and unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. This statement becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Additionally, in June 1997 the FASB adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". This statement which supersedes SFAS No. 14, requires public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments on both an annual and interim basis. SFAS No. 131 mandates disclosure of a measure of segment profit/loss, certain revenue and expense items and segment assets. In addition, the statement requires reporting information on the entity's products and services, countries in which the entity earns revenues and holds assets, and major customers. This statement requires changes in disclosures and would not effect the financial condition of the Corporation. This statement becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. -15- Part II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K (a) None.
