NOTE 8 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share 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. The weighted
average shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are as follows:

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2003, the Company reported
total comprehensive income of approximately $207, and $1,092, respectively. For
the three and six-month periods of the prior year, the Company reported total
comprehensive income of approximately $4,968 and $5,486, respectively. Items of
other comprehensive income consisted of unrealized gains or (losses), net of

NOTE 10 - DIVIDENDS

On June 18, 2003, the Company declared a dividend of $.09 per share payable July
15, 2003 to stockholders of record on June 30, 2003.

NOTE 11 - RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation --Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 123. SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative
methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement
amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent
disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method
used on reported results. This statement is effective for financial statements
for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has provided the
required interim disclosures below.

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting
for stock options and, accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized
in the financial statements. Had the Company determined compensation expense
based on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS No.
123, the Company's net income and income per share would have been reduced to
the pro forma amounts indicated below:

In April 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The Statement amends and
clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under
Statement 133.

The new guidance amends Statement 133 for decisions made as part of the
Derivatives Implementation Group process that effectively required amendments to
Statement 133, in connection with other FASB projects dealing with financial
instruments and regarding implementation issues raised in relation to the
application of the definition of a derivative, particularly regarding the
meaning of an "underlying" and the characteristics of a derivative that contains
financing components.

The amendments set forth in Statement 149 improve financial reporting by
requiring that contracts with comparable characteristics be accounted for
similarly. In particular, this Statement clarifies under what circumstances a
contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative
as discussed in Statement 133. In addition, it clarifies when a derivative
contains a financing component that warrants special reporting in the statement
of cash flows. Statement 149 amends certain other existing pronouncements. Those
changes will result in more consistent reporting of contracts that are
derivatives in their entirety or that contain embedded derivatives that warrant
separate accounting.

This Statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June
30, 2003, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The
guidance should be applied prospectively. Currently, the Company has no
derivatives that require application of this statement.

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. The statement
improves the accounting for certain financial instruments that under previous
guidance, issuers could account for as equity. The new statement requires that
those instruments be classified as liabilities in statements of financial
position. Most of the guidance in Statement 150 is effective for all financial
instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is
effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15,
2003. The Company has not yet evaluated the impact of the adoption of this
statement.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor's
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. This Interpretation elaborates on the
disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial
statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It
also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a
guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in
issuing the guarantee. This Interpretation also incorporates, without change,
the guidance in FASB Interpretation No. 34, Disclosure of Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others, which is being superseded. The initial recognition and
initial measurement provisions of this Interpretation are applicable on a
prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002,
irrespective of the guarantor's fiscal year-end. The disclosure requirements in
this Interpretation are effective for financial statements of interim or annual
periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company currently has no guarantees
that would be required to be recognized, measured or disclosed under this
Interpretation.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities. The Interpretation clarifies the application of
Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to
certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a
controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the
entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial
support from other parties. The Company has participated in the issue of
preferred trust securities through a trust established for such purpose. The
Company is currently assessing the trust preferred securities structure and the
continued consolidation of the related trust pursuant to FIN 46. Management does
not believe the results of the assessment will result in a material change to
the Company's balance sheet or income statement upon the adoption of FIN 46 in
the third quarter 2003.

NOTE 12 - ACCOUNTING FOR GOODWILL

On October 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions,
which allows financial institutions, meeting certain criteria, to reclassify
their identifiable intangible asset balances to goodwill and retroactively cease
amortization beginning as of January 1, 2002. Accordingly, the Company
retroactively ceased amortization of goodwill beginning January 1, 2002 and
restated earnings for the quarterly periods in the year ended December 31, 2002.
The Company will be required to annually review the asset for impairment.

At January 1, 2003, the Company, utilizing an independent third party
specialist, tested the goodwill for impairment. Based on this analysis, no
impairment existed.

THISTLE GROUP HOLDINGS, CO. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains safe harbor
provisions regarding forward-looking statements. When used in this discussion,
the words "believes", "anticipates", "contemplates", "expects", and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results
to differ materially from those projected. Those risks and uncertainties include
changes in interest rates, risks associated with the effect of opening a new
branch, the ability to control costs and expenses, new legislation and
regulations and general market conditions.

Net income for the quarter decreased by $340,000 or $.07 diluted earnings per
share from the quarter ended March 31, 2003. Set forth below is the Company's
earnings information for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the
quarter ended March 31, 2003. (the "Linked Quarter Highlights")

LINKED QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
(Dollars in Thousands)

QTR QTR INCREASE % INCREASE
6/30/03 3/31/03 (DECREASE) (DECREASE)
-------- -------- ---------- ----------
Interest Income $ 10,262 $ 10,622 $ (360) (3.4%)
Interest Expense 5,581 5,562 19 .3%
Net Interest Income 4,681 5,060 (379) (7.5%)
Provision for loan losses 320 397 (77) (19.4%)
Non-interest Income 1,442 1,139 303 26.6%
Non-interest Expense 4,545 4,078 467 11.4%
Net Income 1,031 1,371 (340) (24.8%)
Cash and cash equivalents 66,262 26,276 39,986 152.2%

Deposits 549,975 505,026 44,949 8.9%
Stockholders' Equity 76,320 77,037 (717) (.9%)


o Net income decreased due to a decrease in net interest income of $379,000
and an increase in non-interest expense of $467,000, partially offset by an
increase in non-interest income of 303,000.

o Net interest income decreased $379,000 primarily as a result of a decrease
in interest income on mortgage-backed securities offset somewhat by an
increase in interest income on loans. The mortgage-backed securities
portfolio experienced rapid repayments during the second quarter. As a
result, the average yield on the portfolio decreased 58 basis points as
funds were reinvested at lower rates.

o Non-interest income for the quarter increased $303,000 due mainly to gains
on the sale of securities.

o Non-interest expense increased $467,000 or 11% quarter over quarter. The
increase was the result of increases in salaries and employee benefits and
other operating expenses. The increase in salaries and employee benefits
was due to an increase in the number of employees and incentive
compensation tied to deposit growth goals. The increase in other operating
expense was due to increased costs including telephone, security, postage,
supplies and information technology-related expenses.

o Cash and cash equivalents increased $40.0 million as a result of the
increase in customer deposits and the proceeds from the sale of certain low
yielding mortgage-backed securities during the quarter. Given the current
market environment, the Company did not feel compelled to immediately
reinvest its liquidity.

o Loans receivable increased $9.4 million or 3% over the prior quarter
despite continued heavy prepayments. Repayments, including prepayments,
were $48.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 versus $36.2 million
for the first quarter of 2003. Origination's totaled $66.4 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 2003 versus $47.4 million for the first quarter of
2003.

o Deposits increased $44.9 million for the quarter. Core deposits (checking,
money market, and passbook) increased $29.8 million and certificates
increased by $15.2 million. Much of the increase was attributable to the
opening of RMB's 14th banking office in Havertown, PA, as well as the
continued focus on increasing low cost commercial and retail deposit
relationships.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2003 from December 31,2003
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total assets were $913.7 million at June 30, 2003, representing an increase of
$56.2 million from the balance of $857.4 million at December 31, 2002. The
Company previously reported assets of $847.2 million in its earnings release
dated July 17, 2003 which did not include the trade date purchase of $66.5
million of mortgage-backed securities and the corresponding payable to brokers
and dealers.

Trading securities decreased $31.9 million, which also resulted in a
corresponding decrease in the payable to brokers and dealers.

Mortgage-backed securities decreased $27.0 million, primarily due to repayments
of $91.7 million and sales of $67.9 million, offset by purchases of $191.5
million.

Loans receivable increased $20.1 million, or 6.7% to $320.0 million at June 30,
2003 from $300.0 million at December 31, 2002. The increase was primarily the
result of $105.9 million in loan originations and loan purchases, offset by
principal repayments of $85.0 million, One-to-four family residential loans
decreased $11.3 million, or 9.0% while commercial real estate and commercial
loans increased $23.7 million, or 19.8% and home equity loans and lines
increased $5.9 million, or 20.7%.

Deposits increased $57.1 million, or 11.6 %, to $550.0 million at June 30, 2003
from $492.9 million at December 31, 2002. Checking accounts increased $25.4
million or 27.7%, money market accounts increased $4.0 million, or 9.1%,
passbook accounts increased $6.1 million, or 4.9% and certificate accounts
increased $21.6 million, or 9.3%.

FHLB advances decreased $34.0 million to $186.9 million at June 30, 2003 from
$220.9 million at December 31, 2002. The decrease was due to the repayment of
overnight borrowings.

Total stockholders' equity decreased $79,000 to $76.3 million at June 30, 2003
from $76.4 million at December 31, 2002, primarily due to a decrease in
accumulated other comprehensive income of $1.3 million, treasury stock purchases
of $634,000 and by dividends paid of $906,000 offset by net income of $2.4
million. Because of interest rate changes, the Company's accumulated other
comprehensive income (loss) may fluctuate for each interim and year-end period.

Comparison of Operations for the Three-Month and Six-Month
Periods Ended June 30, 2003 and 2002
- ------------------------------------------------------------

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 decreased $285,000 or 21.7% from
the quarter ended June 30, 2002. Net income for the six months ended June 30,
2003 decreased $45,000 or 1.8% from the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 decreased $177,000 or
3.6% from the quarter ended June 30, 2002. Net interest income for the six
months ended June 30, 2003 increased $184,000 or 1.9% from the six months ended
June 30, 2002.

Interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 decreased $516,000 or 4.8%
over the quarter ended June 30, 2002, primarily due to a decrease in the average
yield on interest-earning assets of 82 basis points, partially offset by an
increase in the average balance of $72.8 million. Interest expense for the
quarter ended June 30, 2003 decreased $339,000 or 5.7% from the quarter ended
June 30, 2002 due to a decrease in the average cost of funds on interest-bearing
liabilities of 63 basis points, partially offset by an increase in the average
balance of $74.4 million.

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $422,000 or
2.0% from the six months ended June 30, 2002, primarily due to a decrease in the
average yield on interest-earning assets of 80 basis points, partially offset by
an increase in the average balance of $86.8 million. Interest expense for the
six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased $606,000 or 5.2% from the six months
ended June 30, 2002 due to a decrease in the average cost of funds on
interest-bearing liabilities of 66 basis points, partially offset by an increase
in the average balance of $89.4 million.

The provision for loan losses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2003
increased $120,000 and $367,000, respectively, over the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 2002. The Company's allowance for loan losses as a percentage of
loans was .91% at June 30, 2003 versus .70% at June 30, 2002. Loans classified
substandard were $2.9 million at June 30, 2003 versus $464,000 at June 30, 2002.

Non-interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 increased $493,000 over
the quarter ended June 30, 2002 primarily due to gains on the sale of securities
offset by a decrease in trading revenues at TGH Securities, the Company's
wholly-owned subsidiary. The decrease in trading revenues is a direct result of
a reduction in trading activity due to the current interest rate environment.

Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $1.0
million over the six months ended June 30, 2002 primarily due to gains on the
sale of securities.

Non-interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 increased $532,000 or
13.3% over the quarter ended June 30, 2002 due mainly to increases in occupancy
and equipment costs and other operating expenses of $103,000 and $351,000,
respectively. Such costs represent increases in maintenance and depreciation
expense and other operating expenses including telephone, security, postage,
supplies and information technology-related expenses.

Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003 increased $828,000
or 10.6% over the six months ended June 30, 2002 due mainly to increases in
salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment costs, and other
operating expenses of $176,000, $191,000 and $400,000, respectively. The
increase in salaries and employee benefits is due primarily to additional
personnel and normal salary increases offset by a decrease in compensation for
TGH Securities, which is directly related to the decrease in its trading
revenues. The increase in occupancy and equipment costs is due to increases in
maintenance and depreciation expense. The increase in other operating expense is
due to increases in operating expenses including telephone, security, postage,
supplies and information technology-related expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies
- ----------------------------

The following is a summary of those accounting policies that the Company
considers to be critical as they require management's most difficult judgments
as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are
inherently uncertain.

Allowance for Loan Losses- the allowance for loan losses represents management's
estimate of probable losses based on information available as of the date of the
financial statements. The allowance for loan losses is based on management's
evaluation of the collectibility of the loan portfolio, including past loan loss
experience, known and inherent losses, information about specific borrower
situations and estimated collateral values, and economic conditions.

The Company's allowance review procedures consist of the following:

13




- Identifying large balance loans for individual review under Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors
for Impairment of a Loan". In general, these consist of large balance
commercial loans and commercial mortgages (Statement 114 loans).

- Calculating the estimated fair value, using observable market prices,
discounted cash flows or the value of the underlying collateral for
Statement 114 loans which are determined to be impaired as defined by
Statement 114.

- Classifying all non-impaired large balance loans based on credit risk
ratings and allocating an allowance for loan losses based on
appropriate factors, including recent loss history for similar loans.

- Identifying all smaller balance homogeneous loans for evaluation
collectively under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies". In general, these
loans include residential mortgages, consumer loans, installment
loans, smaller balance commercial loans and mortgages and lease
receivables

- Reviewing the results to determine the appropriate balance of the
allowance for loan losses. This review gives additional consideration
to factors such as the mix of loans in the portfolio, the balance of
the allowance relative to total loans and non-performing assets,
trends in the overall risk profile of the portfolio, trends in
delinquencies and non-accrual loans and local and national economic
conditions.

Goodwill - With the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 142
and 147, effective January 1, 2002 the Company ceased amortization of goodwill.
The recorded goodwill is subject to impairment testing to determine whether
write-downs of the recorded balances are necessary. Such testing is based upon a
number of factors, which are based upon assumptions and management judgments.
These factors include among other things, future growth rates, discount rates,
and earnings capitalization rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

On June 30, 2003, the Bank was in compliance with its three regulatory capital
requirements as follows:

Amount Percent
--------- -------
(Dollars in Thousands)

Tangible capital.......................... $55,496 6.9%
Tangible capital requirement.............. 12,123 1.5%

Risk based capital requirement............ 34,527 8.0%
------- ----
Excess over requirement................... $23,897 5.5%
======= ====

The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, and proceeds
from principal and interest payments on loans, mortgage-backed securities and
other investments. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and
mortgage-backed securities are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and
mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic
conditions, competition and the consolidation of the financial institution
industry.

The primary investment activity of the Company is the origination and purchase
of mortgage loans, mortgage-backed securities and other investments. During the
six months ended June 30, 2003, the Company originated $101.8 million of
mortgage loans. The Company also purchases loans and mortgage-backed securities
to reduce liquidity not otherwise required for local loan demand. Purchases of
loans and mortgage-backed securities totaled $129.1 million during the six-month
period ended June 30, 2003. Other investment activities include investment in
U.S. government and federal agency obligations, municipal bonds, debt and equity
investments in financial services firms, FHLB of Pittsburgh stock, commercial
and consumer loans.

The Company's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, which include
investments in highly liquid, short-term investments. The level of these assets
is dependent on the Company's operating, financing and investing activities

14



during any given period. At June 30, 2003, cash and cash equivalents totaled
$66.3 million. The Bank's liquidity ratio was 13.2% at June 30, 2003.

The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available and $66.0
million in commitments to purchase mortgage backed securities to meet its
current commitments. As of June 30, 2003, the Company had $22.7 million in
commitments to fund loans. Certificates of deposit, which were scheduled to
mature in one year or less, as of June 30, 2003 totaled $144.1 million.
Management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with
the Company.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
- ----------------------------------------------------------

Qualitative Analysis. There have been no material changes from the Qualitative
Analysis information regarding market risk disclosed under the heading "Net
Portfolio Value" in the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Quantitative Analysis. Exposure to interest rate risk is actively monitored by
management. The Company's objective is to maintain a consistent level of
profitability within acceptable risk tolerances across a broad range of
potential interest rate environments. The Company uses the OTS Net Portfolio
Value ("NPV") Model to monitor its exposure to interest rate risk, which
calculates changes in net portfolio value. Reports generated from assumptions
provided and modified by management are reviewed by the Asset/Liability
Management Committee and reported to the Board of Directors quarterly. The
Interest Rate Sensitivity of the Net Portfolio Value Report shows the degree to
which balance sheet line items and net portfolio value are potentially affected
by a 100 to 300 basis point (1 basis point equals 1/100th of a percentage point)
upward and downward parallel shift (shock) in the Treasury yield curve.

Since the NPV Model measures exposure to interest rate risk of the Bank to
assure capital adequacy for the protection of the depositors, only the Bank's
financial information is used for the model. However, the Bank is the primary
subsidiary and most significant asset of the Company, therefore the OTS NPV
model provides a reliable basis upon which to perform the quantitative analysis.
The following table presents the Bank's NPV as of June 30, 2003. The NPV was
calculated by the OTS, based on information provided by the Bank.

Controls and Procedures
- -----------------------

a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their
evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")),
the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have
concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or
submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules
and forms.

b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. During the quarter
under report, there was no change in the Company's internal control over
financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
