NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND JUNE 30, 2003

(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)


(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include
all the information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of
financial condition, results of operation and cash flows in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
However, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments which,
in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation, have been
included. Significant accounting policies have not changed since June 30, 2003.
The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2003 are not
necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire
fiscal year. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes
thereto included in Laurel Capital Group, Inc.'s (the "Company") 2003 Annual
Report to Stockholders. All amounts presented in the Notes to Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in thousands except share and
per share data.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per
share:



Three Months Ended
September 30,
2003 2002
-----------------------------

Basic earnings per share:
Net income $470 $702
Weighted average shares outstanding 1,883,871 1,882,328
Earnings per share $0.25 $0.37

Diluted earnings per share:
Net income $470 $702
Weighted average shares outstanding 1,883,871 1,882,328
Dilutive effect of employee
Stock options 102,002 108,671
---------- ----------

Diluted weighted shares outstanding 1,985,873 1,990,999
Earnings per share $0.24 $0.35



Options to purchase 242,865 and 260,138 shares of common stock were outstanding
at September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The dilutive effect of these
options was included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because
the option exercise price for these options was less than the average market
price of the common shares.

SECURITIES

The Company accounts for investments in debt and equity securities in accordance
with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Statement No. 115
("SFAS 115"). SFAS 115 requires that investments be classified as either: (1)
Securities Held to Maturity- reported at amortized cost, (2) Trading Securities-
reported at fair value, or (3) Securities Available for Sale- reported at fair
value. Unrealized gains and losses for trading securities are reported in
earnings while unrealized gains and losses for securities available for sale are
reported as other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The Company reports Comprehensive Income in accordance with SFAS No. 130 which
establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses) in a full set of general
purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that are
required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with
the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that an
enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a
financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance of other
comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in
capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. For the
three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, the Company's total
comprehensive income was $176 and $979, respectively. Total comprehensive income
is comprised of net income of $470 and $702, respectively, and other
comprehensive (loss) income of $(294) and $277, net of tax, respectively. Other
comprehensive income consists of unrealized gains and losses on investment
securities and mortgage-backed securities available for sale, net of tax.

LOANS RECEIVABLE

Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances net of the allowance
for loan losses, net deferred loan fees and discounts. The Company accounts for
impaired loans in accordance with SFAS 114, "Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan" and SFAS 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures", an amendment of SFAS 114. These
statements address the accounting by creditors for impairment of certain loans.
They apply to all creditors and to all loans, uncollateralized as well as
collateralized, except for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans
that are collectively evaluated for impairment. Laurel Savings Bank ("the Bank")
considers all one-to-four family residential mortgage loans and all consumer
loans (as presented in Note 4) to be smaller-balance homogeneous loans. Loans
within the scope of these statements are considered impaired when, based on
current information and events, it is probable that all principal and interest
will not be collected in accordance with the contractual terms of the loans.
Management determines the impairment of loans based on knowledge of the
borrower's ability to repay the loan according to the contractual agreement, the
borrower's repayment history and the fair value of collateral for certain
collateral dependent loans. Pursuant to SFAS 114 paragraph 8, management does
not consider an



6


insignificant delay or insignificant shortfall to impair a loan. Management has
determined that a delay less than 90 days will be considered an insignificant
delay and that an amount less than $5,000 will be considered an insignificant
shortfall. The Bank does not apply SFAS 114 using major risk characteristics for
groups of loans, but on a loan by loan basis. All loans are charged off when
management determines that principal and interest are not collectible.

The recognition of interest income on all loans is discontinued when, in
management's opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become
due or when the loan becomes 90 days past due, whichever occurs first. All
unpaid accrued interest on such loans is reserved. Such interest ultimately
collected is credited to income in the period of recovery or applied to reduce
principal if there is sufficient doubt about the collectability of principal.
Consumer loans more than 120 days or 180 days delinquent (depending on the
nature of the loan) are generally required to be written off.

Any excess of the Bank's recorded investment in the loans over the measured
value of the loans in accordance with FAS 114 is provided for in the allowance
for loan losses. The Bank reviews its loans for impairment on a quarterly basis.

Loans receivable classified as held for sale are recorded in the financial
statements in the aggregate at the lower of cost or market.

(2) CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The Company is subject to asserted and unasserted potential claims encountered
in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management and legal
counsel, the resolution of these claims is not expected to have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity or results of
operations.

(5) GUARANTEES

The Company issues standby letters of credit in the normal course of business.
Letters of credit are issued for a one-year period. The Company would be
required to perform under the standby letters of credit when drawn upon by the
guaranteed, in the case of nonperformance by the Company's customer. The maximum
potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under
these guarantees is $1.1 million of which 100% is fully collateralized.
Currently, the Company has not recognized a liability for the outstanding
obligations, as the amount of the liability is insignificant. There are no
recourse provisions that would enable the Company to recover any amounts from
third parties.

(6) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

SFAS 123 allows companies to expense an estimated fair value of stock options or
to continue to measure compensation expense for stock option plans using the
intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25
("APB No. 25"). Entities that elect to continue to measure compensation expense
based on APB No. 25 must provide pro forma disclosures of net income and
earnings per share as if the fair value method of accounting had been applied.
The Company has elected to continue to measure compensation cost using the
intrinsic value method prescribed by APB No. 25. Had the Company used the fair
value method, net income and earnings per share would have been as follows (In
thousands, except per share data):

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND 2002


GENERAL. Laurel Capital Group, Inc.'s (the "Company") only significant asset is
the stock it owns of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Laurel Savings Bank (the
"Bank"). The Company's net income for the three months ended September 30, 2003
was $470,000 compared to $702,000 for the same period in the prior year. The
decrease of $232,000 or 33.05% was primarily the result of a $94,000 decrease in
net interest income, and a $465,000 increase in total operating expense
partially offset by a $209,000 increase in total other income and a $118,000
decrease in income taxes. These and other significant fluctuations are discussed
below.

NET INTEREST INCOME. The Company's operating results depend substantially on the
Bank's net interest income, which is determined by the average interest rate
spread between the Bank's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities and the relative amounts of such assets and liabilities. Net
interest income decreased by $94,000 or 5.06% during the three months ended
September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period of the prior year. The
decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average interest rate spread
from 2.27% for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 to 2.16% for the quarter
ended September 30, 2003. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in
the average balance of net earning assets of $33.6 million or 12.37%.

Interest income on loans receivable and loans held for sale decreased by
$444,000 or 14.19% during the three months ended September 30, 2003 as compared
to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to a
decrease in the average yield on loans receivable from 7.07% to 6.31% for the
three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2003, respectively. Additionally, the
average outstanding balance of loans receivable decreased $6.6 million or 3.70%
compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in the average
outstanding balance of loans receivable was due to a $13.9 million or 9.80%
decrease in the average outstanding balance of mortgage loans, partially offset
by a $7.3 million or 19.82% increase in the average outstanding balance of
consumer and other loans. The decrease in the average outstanding balance of
loans receivable was primarily the result of continued loan repayments in excess
of loan originations. The decrease in the average yield was primarily due to the
generally lower interest rate environment.

Interest on mortgage-backed securities held to maturity and mortgage-backed
securities available for sale increased by $6,000 or 4.48% during the quarter
ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the September 30, 2002 quarter. This
increase was primarily due to a $2.7 million or 28.28% increase in the average
outstanding balance of mortgage-backed securities from September 30, 2002 to
September 30, 2003. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in the
average yield on mortgage-backed securities from 5.68% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2002 to 4.63% for the quarter ended September 30, 2003. The
increase in the average outstanding balance was primarily due to mortgage-backed
securities obtained as a result of the acquisition of SFSB Holding Company. At
September 30, 2003, the Bank's portfolio of mortgage-backed securities available
for sale had net unrealized gains of $97,000. This portfolio consists of fixed
and adjustable rate securities with an average yield of 5.49% at September 30,
2003. Rising interest rates would decrease the unrealized gains in this


13


portfolio if the fixed rate securities were not sold. The mortgage-backed
securities held to maturity portfolio consists of one adjustable-rate
collateralized mortgage obligation (CMO) with a yield of 1.85% at September 30,
2003. At September 30, 2003, the Bank's portfolio of mortgage-backed securities
held to maturity had an amortized cost and fair market value of $25,000 and
$26,000, respectively. In periods of rising interest rates, unrealized losses
could occur due to the timing difference of when the securities re-price. See
Note 3 of "Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements."

Interest income on investment securities held to maturity and investment
securities available for sale decreased during the three months ended September
30, 2003. The decrease of $44,000 or 7.57% from the comparable period in 2002
was primarily due to a decrease in the average yield on investment securities
from 4.27% for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 to 3.31% for the quarter
ended September 30, 2003, reflecting the lower interest rate environment that
continued throughout the period. This decrease was partially offset by a $10.3
million or 19.16% increase in the average outstanding balance for the quarter
ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal
year. The increase in the average outstanding balance was primarily due to
investment securities obtained as a result of the acquisition of SFSB Holding
Company. At September 30, 2003, the Bank's portfolio of investment securities
available for sale and investment securities held to maturity had net unrealized
gains of $754,000 and $145,000, respectively. See Note 3 of "Notes to Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements."

Interest income on interest-earning deposits decreased during the three months
ended September 30, 2003 by $13,000 or 11.02% from the comparable period in
2002. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average yield earned
on such deposits from 1.54% for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 to 0.80%
for the quarter ended September 30, 2003. This decrease was, to a large extent,
offset by an increase of $21.7 million or 71.75% in the average outstanding
balance of interest-earning deposits for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as
compared to the September 30, 2002 quarter. The increase in the average balance
was primarily due to excess liquidity resulting from increased deposits from
September 30, 2002 to September 30, 2003 and loan and security repayments.

Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits decreased by $412,000 or 23.15%
for the quarter ended September 30, 2003, compared to the same period in 2002.
The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average interest rate paid
on savings deposits from 3.33% for the three months ended September 30, 2002 to
2.19% for the three months ended September 30, 2003, reflecting the lower
interest rate environment in the 2003 period. This decrease was partially offset
by a $35.0 million or 16.46% increase in the average outstanding balance of such
deposits during the three months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the
same period of the prior year. The increase in the average outstanding balance
was primarily due to the deposits obtained as a result of the acquisition of
SFSB Holding Company.

Interest expense on borrowings increased $11,000 or 3.43% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2003 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2002 primarily
due to a $3.0 million increase in the average outstanding balance of FHLB
advances. Partially offsetting the increase in interest expense resulting from
the higher average balance was a decrease in the average


14


rate paid on such advances from 5.81% at September 30, 2002 to 5.27% at
September 30, 2003.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The Bank provided $3,000 to its allowance for loan
losses for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
Such provisions were the result of an analysis of the allowance for loan losses
in connection with a review of the Bank's loan portfolio.

At September 30, 2003, the Bank's allowance for loan losses amounted to $2.0
million or 1.27% of the total loan portfolio. At September 30, 2002 the Bank's
allowance for loan losses amounted to $1.8 million or 1.01% of the total loan
portfolio.

A review of the loan portfolio is conducted at least quarterly by management to
determine that the allowance for loan losses is appropriate to absorb estimated
loan losses. In determining the appropriate level of the allowance for loan
losses, consideration is given to general economic conditions, diversification
of loan portfolios, historic loss experience, identified credit problems,
delinquency levels and adequacy of collateral. In consideration of the above,
management has assessed the risks in the loan portfolio and has determined that
no significant changes have occurred during the three months ended September 30,
2003. Thus, the level of the allowance for loan losses is substantially
unchanged from June 30, 2003. Although management believes that the current
allowance for loan losses is appropriate, future additions to the reserve may be
necessary due to changes in economic conditions and other factors. In addition,
as an integral part of their periodic examination, certain regulatory agencies
review the adequacy of the Bank's allowance for loan losses and may direct the
Bank to make additions to the allowance based on their judgment. No such
additions were required to be made during the Company's most recent examination.

OTHER INCOME. Total other income increased by $209,000 or 99.05% to $420,000 for
the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002.
This was the result of an increase in service charge income of $141,000, as well
as a $71,000 increase in other operating income and a $1,000 increase in the
gain on the sale of loans held for sale, partially offset by a $4,000 decrease
in the gain on the sale of investments and mortgage-backed securities available
for sale. The increase in service charge income was largely attributable to
activity related to the accounts obtained through the acquisition of SFSB
Holding Company. The increase in other operating income was primarily the result
of income earned on amounts deposited with various insurance companies.

OPERATING EXPENSES. Total operating expenses increased by $465,000 or 44.50%
during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same quarter in
2002. This increase was primarily due to a $222,000 increase in other operating
expenses, a $160,000 increase in compensation and benefits expense, a $45,000
increase in premises and occupancy expense and $41,000 increase in data
processing expense. These increases were slightly offset by a $4,000 decrease in
net loss on real estate owned. The increase in other operating expenses was
largely attributable to amortization of the core deposit intangible of $102,000
related to the acquisition of SFSB Holding Company. The increase in compensation
and benefits was primarily the result of increased staffing resulting from the
acquisition of SFSB



15

Holding Company and the hiring of new employees during the quarter.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expense decreased by $118,000 for the quarter
ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2002
primarily as a result of lower pre-tax income. Additionally, the effective tax
rate decreased slightly from 31.45% for the 2002 quarter to 30.27% for the 2003
quarter.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Total assets decreased by $15.5 million or 4.79% from June 30, 2003 to September
30, 2003. The largest decrease was a $23.2 million decrease in loans receivable,
net. Additionally, there was a $3.1 million decrease in mortgage-backed
securities available for sale and a $2.9 million decrease in investment
securities available for sale. These decreases were partially offset by a $10.3
million increase in interest-earning deposits with other institutions, a $3.0
million increase in investment securities held to maturity and a $529,000
increase in cash. The largest components of change in liabilities were a $14.3
million decrease in savings deposits and a $1.7 million decrease in advance
deposits by borrowers for taxes and insurance. These decreases were slightly
offset by an increase in accrued interest payable on savings deposits.

Under regulations adopted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"),
the Bank is required to maintain Tier I (Core) capital equal to at least 4% of
the Bank's adjusted total assets, and Tier II (Supplementary) risk-based capital
equal to at least 8% of the risk-weighted assets. At September 30, 2003, the
Bank exceeded all of these requirements, with Tier I and Tier II ratios of 7.22%
and 16.08%, respectively.

The following table sets forth certain information concerning the Bank's
regulatory capital at September 30, 2003.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

The financial statements and related data presented herein have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the
measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical
dollars without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money
over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all
of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature.
As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial
institution's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation.
Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same
magnitude as the prices of goods and services as measured by the consumer price
index.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Certain critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and
estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The
Company's single most critical accounting policy relates to the Company's
allowance for loan loss, which reflects the estimated losses resulting from the
inability of the Company's borrowers to make required loan payments. If the
financial condition of the Company's borrowers were to deteriorate, resulting in
an impairment of their ability to make payments, the Company's estimates would
be updated, and additional provisions for loan losses may be required. Further
discussion of the estimates used in determining the allowance for loan loss is
contained in the discussion on "Provision for Loan Losses" on page 15 herein.

ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

There are no new standards issued and not yet effective that will have a
material impact on the Company.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For a discussion of the Company's asset and liability management policies as
well as the potential impact of interest rate changes upon the market value of
the Bank's portfolio equity, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the 2003 Annual Report to
Stockholders. There has been no material change in the Company's asset and
liability position or market value of portfolio equity since June 30, 2003.

CONROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer
