          (All numbers except shares and per share data in thousands)

1.          SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

            Basis  of   Presentation--The   accompanying   interim  consolidated
financial  statements of  WebFinancial  Corporation  and its  subsidiaries  (the
"Company")  are  unaudited  and  have  been  prepared  in  conformity  with  the
requirements of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities  Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"),  particularly  Rule 10-01 thereof,  which
governs the presentation of interim financial statements.  Accordingly,  they do
not  include  all  of the  information  and  footnotes  required  by  accounting
principles  generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying
interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's  significant  accounting  policies  as  set  forth  in  Note  1 to the
consolidated  financial  statements in the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001 (the "2001 10-K").  The consolidated
Statement of Financial  Condition  at December 31, 2001 was  extracted  from the
Company's audited consolidated  financial statements contained in the 2001 10-K,
and does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally
accepted  in the United  States of America  for  annual  consolidated  financial
statements.

            In the opinion of management,  all adjustments  (comprised of normal
recurring accruals) necessary for the fair presentation of the interim financial
statements  have been made.  Operating  results for the quarter  ended March 31,
2002 are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2002.

3.          GOODWILL

            As of January 1, 2002,  the Company  adopted  Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" (SFAS
142). SFAS 142 changes the accounting for goodwill from an  amortization  method
to an impairment-only approach. Thus, effective January 1, 2002, the Company has
ceased  amortization of goodwill,  including  goodwill recorded in past business
combinations. The Company does not have any intangible assets with indeterminate
lives other than goodwill.

            In connection with the transitional goodwill impairment  evaluation,
SFAS 142 requires the Company to perform an  assessment  of whether  there is an
indication  that goodwill is impaired as of January 1, 2002. To accomplish  this
the Company must identify its reporting  units and determine the carrying  value
of each  reporting unit by assigning the assets and  liabilities,  including the
existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of the date
of adoption.  The Company will then have until June 30, 2002,  to determine  the
fair  value  of each  reporting  unit and  compare  it to the  reporting  unit's
carrying  amount.  To the extent a reporting  unit's carrying amount exceeds its
fair value,  an  indication  exists that the  reporting  unit's  goodwill may be
impaired  and the  Company  must  perform  the second  step of the  transitional
impairment test.

            In the second step,  the Company must compare the implied fair value
of the reporting unit's goodwill,  determined by allocating the reporting unit's
fair value to all of its assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities in
a manner similar to a purchase price allocation, to its carrying amount, both of
which would be  measured as of January 1, 2002.  This second step is required to
be  completed  as soon as possible,  but no later than  December  31, 2002.  Any
transitional  impairment  loss will be  recognized  as a cumulative  effect of a
change in accounting principle in the Company's statement of operations.

            The following  table  reconciles  the Company's net earnings for the
three  months  ended  March  31,  2002 and 2001  adjusted  to  exclude  goodwill
amortization pursuant to SFAS 142 to amounts previously reported:

Item 2.     Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and
            Results of Operations

                The following  discussion should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto presented
elsewhere herein.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
March 31, 2002 Compared to December 31, 2001

                Total assets  increased by  $5,070,000  during the quarter ended
March 31, 2002. In January 2002,  WebBank began  factoring  commercial  accounts
receivable.  The  balance  of  factored  accounts  receivable  at  March  31 was
$1,904,000.  Other changes in total assets involved  increases at WebBank in the
commercial  lease portfolio of $394,000 and in federal funds sold of $2,773,000.
The change in the Company's  total assets was funded with a $5,061,000  increase
in certificates  of deposit at WebBank.  Nonaccrual  loans at WebBank  decreased
from $2,027,000 at December 31, 2001 to $1,570,000 at March 31, 2002,  mainly as
the result of the successful restructuring of a large commercial loan.

CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2001

                The net loss for the quarter  ended March 31, 2002 was  $276,000
or $(.06) per share  compared  to a net loss of $399,000 or $(.09) per share for
the same period in 2001. The Company's  earnings for the quarter ended March 31,
2002 were not  impacted  significantly  by  WebBank's  new  commercial  accounts
receivable factoring program.

                Net interest income after provision for loan losses increased by
$563,000  between the two periods  primarily  due to a decrease in the provision
for loan losses of $532,000.  During  2001,  WebBank  aggressively  reserved for
losses on a number  of loans in its  commercial  loan  portfolio.  WebBank  also
discontinued  its  commercial  loan  origination  program  and  took  aggressive
measures to resolve any problem loans remaining in the portfolio.  These actions
resulted in the period to period reduction of the loan loss provision.

                Noninterest   income  decreased  by  $390,000  between  the  two
periods. Discontinuance of the commercial loan origination program at WebBank in
2001  resulted  in a decrease in gain on sale of loans of  $219,000.  Fee income
declined by $54,000 because  WebBank's payday lending and structured  settlement
programs  were  discontinued  in 2001.  The  unfavorable  impact of this loss of
business was partially offset by new student loan and medical  treatment lending
programs. Miscellaneous income declined by $117,000 in large part because of the
discontinuance of one of two servicing  relationships in WebBank's private label
credit card program in early 2001.

                Noninterest   expense  increased  by  $37,000  between  the  two
periods.  The salary,  wages,  and  benefits  expense  reduction  of $59,000 was
attributable  to staff  reductions  made in October of 2001.  This  decrease  in
staffing  expense was offset by a $130,000  increase in  professional  and legal
fees due to a combination of new program  development  costs and aggressive loan
collection efforts in 2002.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

                The  Company's  liquidity  generally  comes from either cash and
cash  equivalents  or borrowings by WebBank.  At March 31, 2002 and December 31,
2001, the Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $7,120,000 and $5,095,000,
respectively.  Funding for WebBank is obtained  primarily from  certificates  of
deposit obtained through brokers and from a $235,000 secured line of credit with
a local correspondent bank.  Management believes that the Company's current cash
and cash  equivalent  balances,  expected  operating  cash  flows,  and  WebBank
borrowing  sources are adequate to meet its liquidity needs through at least the
next 12 months.

                The Company continues to actively seek acquisition transactions.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to acquire an additional
business,  or that such  business  will be  profitable.  In order to  finance an
acquisition,  the Company may be  required  to incur or assume  indebtedness  or
issue securities.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

                The  following  important  factors,  among  others,  could cause
actual  results to differ  materially  from those  indicated by  forward-looking
statements made in this Quarterly Report of Form 10-Q and presented elsewhere by
management.  All forward-looking  statements included in this document are based
on  information  available  to the Company on the date  hereof,  and the Company
assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. A number of
uncertainties  exist that could affect the Company's future  operating  results,
including, without limitation,  general economic conditions, changes in interest
rates, the Company's ability to attract  deposits,  and the Company's ability to
control costs.  Because of these and other factors,  past financial  performance
should not be  considered an  indication  of future  performance.  The Company's
future quarterly operating results may vary significantly.  Investors should not
use historical  trends to anticipate future results and should be aware that the
trading price of the Company's Common Stock may be subject to wide  fluctuations
in response to  quarterly  variations  in operating  results and other  factors,
including those discussed above.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

            The Company maintains an investment  portfolio and participates with
other lenders in commercial loan programs.  Both of these activities are subject
to specific  policies  that are  focused on  preserving  principal,  maintaining
proper liquidity to meet operating needs, and maximizing yields.

            The  Company's  operations  may be  subject  to a variety  of market
risks,  the most  material  of which is the  risk of  changing  interest  rates.
Generally,  interest  rate  risk  is the  volatility  in  financial  performance
attributable  to changes in market  interest  rates,  which may result in either
fluctuation  of net  interest  income or  changes to the  economic  value of the
equity of the Company.  The following  discusses certain factors that may affect
the  Company's  financial  results and  operations  and should be  considered in
evaluating the Company.

            Interest Rates.  The Company's  earnings may be impacted by changing
interest  rates.  Changes in interest rates impact the level of loans,  deposits
and  investments,  the credit profile of existing  loans,  the rates received on
loans and securities and the rates paid on deposits and borrowings.  The Company
attempts to minimize  interest  rate risk through  various  means  including the
matching  of  interest  rate  volatility  of assets  and  liabilities.  However,
significant  fluctuations  in interest  rates may have an adverse  effect on the
Company's financial condition and results of operations.

            Market  Risk.  The fair  value of the  Company's  loans and  deposit
accounts  at March 31,  2002  approximated  their book  value.  Market  risk was
estimated as the potential decrease (increase) in future earnings and cash flows
resulting from a hypothetical 10% increase (decrease) in the Company's estimated
weighted  average lending rate at March 31, 2002.  Although most of the interest
on the Company's loans are indexed to a market rate,  there would be no material
effect on the future  earnings or cash flows related to the Company's total debt
for such a hypothetical change.

            Government  Regulation and Monetary Policy.  The banking industry is
subject to extensive federal and state  supervision and regulation.  Significant
new laws or changes in existing  laws, or repeals of existing laws may cause the
Company's  results  to differ  materially.  Further,  federal  monetary  policy,
particularly as implemented  through the Federal  Reserve System,  significantly
affects  credit  conditions  for the  Company  and a  material  change  in these
conditions  could  have a material  adverse  impact on the  Company's  financial
condition and results of operations.

            Competition.  The banking and financial  services  businesses in the
Company's lines of business are highly competitive. The increasingly competitive
environment  is a result of changes in  regulation,  changes in  technology  and
product  delivery  systems,  and the accelerating  pace of  consolidation  among
financial  service  providers.   The  results  of  the  Company  may  differ  if
circumstances affecting the nature or level of competition change.

            Credit Quality.  A source of risk arises from the  possibility  that
losses will be sustained because  borrowers,  guarantors and related parties may
fail to perform in  accordance  with the terms of their  loans.  The Company has
adopted  underwriting  and credit  monitoring  procedures  and credit  policies,
including the establishment and review of the allowance for credit losses,  that
management  believes are  appropriate  to minimize  this risk by  assessing  the
likelihood of  nonperformance,  tracking loan  performance and  diversifying the
Company's  credit  portfolio.  These policies and procedures,  however,  may not
prevent  unexpected  losses  that could have a  material  adverse  effect on the
Company's results.

            Non-banking  Activities.  The Company may expand its operations into
new  non-banking  activities  in 2002.  Although the Company has  experience  in
providing  bank-related  services,  this  expertise  may  not  assist  us in our
expansion into non-banking  activities.  As a result, we may be exposed to risks
associated with, among other things,  (1) a lack of market and product knowledge
or awareness of other industry  related  matters and (2) an inability to attract
and retain qualified employees with experience in these non-banking activities.

                                       12



            Proposed  Legislation.  From time to time,  various types of federal
and state  legislation  have  been  proposed  that  could  result in  additional
regulation  of,  and  modifications  of  restrictions  on, the  business  of the
Company.  It  cannot  be  predicted  whether  any  legislation  currently  being
considered will be adopted or how such legislation or any other legislation that
might be enacted in the future would affect the business of the Company.
