PART I

The management of ACNB Corporation has made forward-looking statements in this
Annual Report on Form 10-K. These forward-looking statements may be subject to
risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include the information
concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of ACNB Corporation
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Adams County National Bank and Pennbanks
Insurance Company. When words such as "believes", "expects", "anticipates",
"may", "could", "should", "estimates", or similar expressions occur in this
annual report, management is making forward-looking statements.

Shareholders should note that many factors, some of which are discussed
elsewhere in this report, could affect the future financial results of ACNB
Corporation and its subsidiaries, both individually and collectively, and could
cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in this report.
These risk factors include the following:

o Operating, legal and regulatory risks;

o Economic, political and competitive forces impacting our various lines of
business;

o The risk that our analysis of these risks and forces could be incorrect
and/or that the strategies developed to address them could be
unsuccessful;

o The possibility that increased demand or prices for ACNB's financial
services and products may not occur;

o Volatility in interest rates; and/or

o Other risks and uncertainties.

ACNB undertakes no obligation to publicly revise or update these forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this
report. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in other
documents ACNB files periodically with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and any Current Reports on Form 8-K.

ITEM I - BUSINESS

ACNB CORPORATION

ACNB Corporation is a $734.6 million financial holding company headquartered in
Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Through its banking and nonbanking subsidiaries, ACNB
provides a full range of banking and financial services to individuals and
businesses, including commercial and retail banking, trust, accounting and
insurance. ACNB's operations are conducted through its primary operating
subsidiary, Adams County National Bank with nineteen offices in Adams,
Cumberland and York counties.

ACNB's major source of operating funds is dividends that it receives from its
subsidiary bank. ACNB's expenses consist principally of losses from low-income
housing investments. Dividends that ACNB pays to shareholders consist of
dividends declared and paid to ACNB by the subsidiary bank.

ACNB and its subsidiaries are not dependent upon a single customer or a small
number of customers, the loss of which would have a material adverse effect on
the Corporation. ACNB does not depend on foreign sources of funds, nor does it
make foreign loans.

The common stock of ACNB is listed on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board under
the symbol ACNB.

The corporation has four operating segments, Commercial, Consumer, Mortgage
Lending and Investment Securities, as described in Note R of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report. The segment reporting
information in Note R is incorporated by reference into this Item I.

BANKING SUBSIDIARY

ADAMS COUNTY NATIONAL BANK

Adams County National Bank is a full-service commercial bank operating under
charter from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The bank's principal
market area is Adams County, Pennsylvania, which is located in south central
Pennsylvania. Adams County depends on agriculture, industry and tourism to
provide employment for its residents. No single sector dominates the county's
economy. At December 31, 2002, Adams County National Bank had total assets of
$731.7 million, total loans of $375 million and total deposits of $512 million.

The main office of the bank is located at 16 Lincoln Square, Gettysburg,
Pennsylvania. In addition to its main office, the bank has thirteen branches in
Adams County, two branches in York County, and three branches in Cumberland
County. Adams County National Bank's service delivery channels for its customers

3

also include the ATM network, Customer Contact Center, Internet and telephone
banking. The bank is subject to regulation and periodic examination by the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, as provided by law, insures the bank's deposits.

NONBANKING SUBSIDIARY

PENNBANKS INSURANCE CO.

Pennbanks Insurance Co. holds an unrestricted Class "B" Insurer's License under
Cayman Islands Insurance Law. The segregated portfolio is engaged in the
business of reinsuring credit life and credit accident and disability risks.
Total assets of the segregated portfolio as of December 31, 2002, totaled
$686,000.

COMPETITION

The financial services industry in ACNB's market area is highly competitive,
including competition from commercial banks, savings banks, credit unions,
finance companies and nonbank providers of financial services. Several of ACNB's
competitors have legal lending limits that exceed those of ACNB's subsidiary, as
well as funding sources on the capital markets that exceed ACNB's availability.
The increased competition has resulted from a changing legal and regulatory
climate, as well as from the economic climate.

In addition, savings banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, money
market and other mutual funds, mortgage companies, leasing companies, finance
companies, and other financial services companies offer competitive products and
services similar in terms to those offered by ACNB.

Many bank holding companies have elected to become financial holding companies
under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, which gives them a broader range of products
with which the bank must compete. Although the long-range effects of this
development cannot be predicted, most probably it will further narrow the
differences and intensify competition among commercial banks, investment banks,
insurance firms and other financial services companies.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

BANK HOLDING COMPANY REGULATION

ACNB is a financial holding company and is subject to the regulations of the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System under the Bank Holding Company
Act of 1956. Bank holding companies are required to file periodic reports with
and are subject to examination by the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve has
issued regulations under the Bank Holding Company Act that require a financial
holding company to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its
subsidiary bank. As a result, the Federal Reserve may require ACNB to stand
ready to use its resources to provide adequate capital funds to the bank during
periods of financial stress or adversity.

Under the Bank Holding Company Act, the Federal Reserve may require a financial
holding company to end a nonbanking business if the nonbanking business
constitutes a serious risk to the financial soundness and stability of any bank
subsidiary of the financial holding company.

The Bank Holding Company Act prohibits ACNB from acquiring direct or indirect
control of more than 5% of the outstanding voting stock of any bank, or
substantially all of the assets of any bank, or merge with another bank holding
company, without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve. The Bank Holding
Company Act allows interstate bank acquisitions and interstate branching by
acquisition and consolidation in those states that had not elected out by the
required deadline. The Pennsylvania Department of Banking also must approve any
similar consolidation. Pennsylvania law permits Pennsylvania financial holding
companies to control an unlimited number of banks.

In addition, the Bank Holding Company Act restricts ACNB's nonbanking activities
to those that are determined by the Federal Reserve Board to be financial in
nature, incidental to such financial activity, or complementary to a financial
activity. The Bank Holding Company Act does not place territorial restrictions
on the activities of nonbank subsidiaries of financial holding companies.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act requires a bank
holding company to guarantee the compliance of any insured depository
institution subsidiary that may become "undercapitalized", as defined by
regulations, with the terms of any capital restoration plan filed by such
subsidiary with its appropriate federal banking agency, up to specified limits.

RECENT LEGISLATION

USA PATRIOT ACT OF 2001 - In October 2001, the USA Patriot Act of 2001 was
enacted in response to the terrorist attacks in New York, Pennsylvania and
Washington, D.C., which occurred on September 11, 2001. The Patriot Act is
intended to strengthen U.S. law enforcement's and the intelligence communities'
abilities to work cohesively to combat terrorism on a variety of fronts. The
potential impact of the Patriot Act on financial institutions of all kinds is
significant and wide ranging. The Patriot Act contains sweeping anti-money
laundering and financial transparency laws and imposes various regulations,

4

including standards for verifying client identification at account opening, and
rules to promote cooperation among financial institutions, regulators and law
enforcement entities in identifying parties that may be involved in terrorism or
money laundering.

FINANCIAL SERVICES MODERNIZATION LEGISLATION - In November 1999, the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, or the GLB, was enacted. The GLB repeals
provisions of the Glass-Steagall Act which restricted the affiliation of Federal
Reserve member banks with firms "engaged principally" in specified securities
activities, and which restricted officer, director or employee interlocks
between a member bank and any company or person "primarily engaged" in specified
securities activities.

In addition, the GLB also contains provisions that expressly preempt any state
law restricting the establishment of financial affiliations, primarily related
to insurance. The general effect of the law is to establish a comprehensive
framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, insurance companies,
securities firms and other financial service providers by revising and expanding
the Bank Holding Company Act framework to permit a holding company to engage in
a full range of financial activities through a new entity known as a "financial
holding company". "Financial activities" is broadly defined to include not only
banking, insurance and securities activities, but also merchant banking and
additional activities that the Federal Reserve Board, in consultation with the
Secretary of the Treasury, determines to be financial in nature, incidental to
such financial activities or complementary activities that do not pose a
substantial risk to the safety and soundness of depository institutions or the
financial system generally.

The GLB also permits national banks to engage in expanded activities through the
formation of financial subsidiaries. A national bank may have a subsidiary
engaged in any activity authorized for national banks directly or any financial
activity, except for insurance underwriting, insurance investments, real estate
investment or development, or merchant banking, which may only be conducted
through a subsidiary of a financial holding company. Financial activities
include all activities permitted under new sections of the Bank Holding Company
Act or permitted by regulation.

To the extent that the GLB permits banks, securities firms and insurance
companies to affiliate, the financial services industry may experience further
consolidation. The GLB is intended to grant to community banks certain powers as
a matter of right that larger institutions have accumulated on an ad hoc basis
and which unitary savings and loan holding companies already possess.
Nevertheless, the GLB may have the result of increasing the amount of
competition that ACNB faces from larger institutions and other types of
companies offering financial products, many of which may have substantially more
financial resources than ACNB has.

SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002 - On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the SOA. The stated goals of the SOA are to
increase corporate responsibility, to provide for enhanced penalties for
accounting and auditing improprieties at publicly traded companies, and to
protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate
disclosures pursuant to the securities law.

The SOA is the most far-reaching U.S. securities legislation enacted in some
time. The SOA generally applies to all companies, both U.S. and non-U.S., that
file or are required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the
Exchange Act. Given the extensive SEC role in implementing rules relating to
many of the SOA's new requirements, the final scope of these requirements
remains to be determined.

The SOA includes very specific additional disclosure requirements and new
corporate governance rules; requires the SEC and securities exchanges to adopt
extensive additional disclosure, corporate governance and other related rules;
and, mandates further studies of certain issues by the SEC. The SOA represents
significant federal involvement in matters traditionally left to state
regulatory systems, such as the regulation of the accounting profession, and to
state corporate law, such as the relationship between a board of directors and
management and between a board of directors and its committees.

The SOA addresses, among other matters:

o Audit committees for all reporting companies;

o Certification of financial statements by the chief executive officer
and the chief financial officer;

o The forfeiture of bonuses or other incentive-based compensation and
profits from the sale of an issuer's securities by directors and senior
officers in the twelve-month period following initial publication of
any financial statements that later require restatement;

o A prohibition on insider trading during pension plan black out periods;

o Disclosure of off-balance sheet transactions;

o A prohibition on personal loans to directors and officers;

o Expedited filing requirements for Forms 4s;

o Disclosure of a code of ethics and filing a Form 8-K for a change or
waiver of such code;

5

o "Real time" filing of periodic reports;

o Formation of a public accounting oversight board;

o Auditor independence; and,

o Increased criminal penalties for violations of securities laws.

The SOA contains provisions that became effective upon enactment on July 30,
2002 and provisions that will become effective from within 30 days to one year
from enactment. The SEC has been delegated the task of enacting rules to
implement various provisions with respect to, among other matters, disclosure in
periodic filings pursuant to the Exchange Act.

REGULATION W - Transactions between a bank and its "affiliates" are
quantitatively and qualitatively restricted under the Federal Reserve Act. The
Federal Deposit Insurance Act applies Sections 23A and 23B to insured nonmember
banks in the same manner and to the same extent as if they were members of the
Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Board has also recently issued
Regulation W, which codifies prior regulations under Sections 23A and 23B of the
Federal Reserve Act, and interpretative guidance with respect to affiliate
transactions. Regulation W incorporates the exemption from the affiliate
transaction rules, but expands the exemption to cover the purchase of any type
of loan or extension of credit from an affiliate. Affiliates of a bank include,
among other entities, the bank's holding company and companies that are under
common control with the bank. ACNB Corporation is considered to be an affiliate
of Adams County National Bank. In general, subject to certain specified
exemptions, a bank or its subsidiaries are limited in their ability to engage in
"covered transactions" with affiliates:

o To an amount equal to 10% of the bank's capital and surplus, in the
case of covered transactions with any one affiliate; and,

o To an amount equal to 20% of the bank's capital and surplus, in the
case of covered transactions with all affiliates.

In addition, a bank and its subsidiaries may engage in covered transactions and
other specified transactions only on terms and under circumstances that are
substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the bank or its subsidiary,
as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with nonaffiliated
companies. A "covered transaction" includes:

o Loan or extension of credit to an affiliate;

o Purchase of, or an investment in, securities issued by an affiliate;

o Purchase of assets from an affiliate, with some exceptions;

o Acceptance of securities issued by an affiliate as collateral for a
loan or extension of credit to any party; and

o Issuance of a guarantee, acceptance or letter of credit on behalf of an
affiliate.

In addition, under Regulation W:

o A bank and its subsidiaries may not purchase a low-quality asset from
an affiliate;

o Covered transactions and other specified transactions between a bank or
its subsidiaries and an affiliate must be on terms and conditions that
are consistent with safe and sound banking practices; and,

o With some exceptions, each loan or extension of credit by a bank to an
affiliate must be secured by collateral with a market value ranging
from 100% to 130%, depending on the type of collateral, of the amount
of the loan or extension of credit.

Regulation W generally excludes all nonbank and nonsavings association
subsidiaries of banks from treatment as affiliates, except to the extent that
the Federal Reserve Board decides to treat these subsidiaries as affiliates.

Concurrently with the adoption of Regulation W, the Federal Reserve Board has
proposed a regulation that would further limit the amount of loans that could be
purchased by a bank from an affiliate to not more than 100% of the bank's
capital and surplus.

DIVIDENDS

ACNB is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiary bank. ACNB's
revenues, on a parent company only basis, result almost entirely from dividends
paid to the corporation by its subsidiary. Federal and state laws regulate the
payment of dividends by ACNB's subsidiary. See "Regulation of Bank" below.

6

REGULATION OF BANK

The operations of the subsidiary bank are subject to federal and state statutes
applicable to banks chartered under the banking laws of the United States, to
members of the Federal Reserve System, and to banks whose deposits are insured
by the FDIC. The bank's operations are also subject to regulations of the Office
of the Comptroller of the Currency, Federal Reserve, FDIC, and Pennsylvania
Department of Banking.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which has primary supervisory
authority over national banks, regularly examines banks in such areas as
reserves, loans, investments, management practices, and other aspects of
operations. These examinations are designed for the protection of the bank's
depositors rather than ACNB's shareholders. The subsidiary bank must file
quarterly and annual reports to the Federal Financial Institutions Examinations
Council or FFIEC.

The National Bank Act requires the subsidiary national bank to obtain the prior
approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for the payment of
dividends if the total of all dividends declared by the bank in one year would
exceed the bank's net profits, as defined and interpreted by regulation, for the
two preceding years, less any required transfers to surplus. In addition, the
bank may only pay dividends to the extent that the retained net profits,
including the portion transferred to surplus, exceed statutory bad debts, as
defined by regulation. These restrictions have not had, nor are they expected to
have, any impact on the corporation's dividend policy. Under the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation Insurance Act of 1991, any depository institution,
including the bank, is prohibited from paying any dividends, making other
distributions or paying any management fees if, after such payment, it would
fail to satisfy the minimum capital requirement.

A subsidiary bank of a bank holding company is subject to certain restrictions
imposed by the Federal Reserve Act, including:

o Extensions of credit to the bank holding company or its subsidiaries;

o Investments in the stock or other securities of the bank holding
company or its subsidiaries; and,

o Taking such stock or securities as collateral for loans.

The Federal Reserve Act and Federal Reserve regulations also place certain
limitations and reporting requirements on extensions of credit by a bank to the
principal shareholders of its parent holding company, among others, and to
related interests of principal shareholders. In addition, such legislation and
regulations may affect the terms upon which any person becoming a principal
shareholder of a holding company may obtain credit from banks with which the
subsidiary bank maintains a correspondent relationship.

ACNB and its subsidiary bank are affected by the monetary and fiscal policies of
government agencies, including the Federal Reserve and FDIC. Through open market
securities transactions and changes in its discount rate and reserve
requirements, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve exerts considerable
influence over the cost and availability of funds for lending and investment.
The nature of monetary and fiscal policies on future business and earnings of
ACNB cannot be predicted at this time.

OTHER

From time to time, various federal and state legislation is proposed that could
result in additional regulation of, and restrictions on, the business of ACNB
and the subsidiary bank, or otherwise change the business environment.
Management cannot predict whether any of this legislation will have a material
effect on the business of ACNB.

ACCOUNTING POLICY DISCLOSURE

Disclosure of the corporation's significant accounting policies is included in
Note A to the consolidated financial statements. Some of these policies are
particularly sensitive requiring significant judgments, estimates and
assumptions to be made by management. Additional information is contained in
Management's Discussion and Analysis for the most sensitive of these issues,
including the provision and allowance for loan losses which are located in Note
D to the consolidated financial statements.

Management in determining the allowance for loan losses makes significant
estimates. Consideration is given to a variety of factors in establishing this
estimate. In estimating the allowance for loan losses, management considers
current economic conditions, diversification of the loan portfolio, delinquency
statistics, results of internal loan review, financial and managerial strengths
of borrowers, adequacy of collateral, if collateral dependent, or present value
of future cash flows, and other relevant factors.

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION AND FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

INTRODUCTION

The following is management's discussion and analysis of the significant changes
in the results of operations, capital resources and liquidity presented in its
accompanying consolidated financial statements for ACNB Corporation, a financial
holding company. Please read this discussion in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and disclosures included herein. Current
performance does not guarantee, assure or indicate similar performance in the
future.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to historical information, this 2002 Annual Report contains
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain
risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those
projected in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that might cause
such a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the
section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations". We caution readers not to place undue reliance on
these forward-looking statements. They only reflect management's analysis as of
this date. The corporation does not revise or update these forward-looking
statements to reflect events or changed circumstances. Please carefully review
the risk factors described in other documents the corporation files from time to
time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q, filed by the corporation in 2003 and any Current Reports
on Form 8-K filed by the corporation.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies that the Corporation's management deems to be most
important to the portrayal of its financial condition and results of operations,
and that require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgment,
often result in the need to make estimates about the effect of such matters
which are inherently uncertain. The following policy is deemed to be a critical
accounting policy by management:

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Corporation assesses the level of potential loss associated with its loan
portfolio and provides for that exposure through an Allowance for Loan Losses.
The allowance is established through a provision for loan losses charged to
earnings. The allowance is an estimate of the losses inherent in the loan
portfolio as of the end of each reporting period. The Corporation assesses the
adequacy of its allowance on a quarterly basis. The specific methodologies
applied on a consistent basis are discussed in greater detail under the caption
"Allowance for Loan Losses" in a subsequent section of the following
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

ACNB's 2002 net income was $8,904,000, or $1.64 per share, compared to
$8,337,000, or $1.53 per share in 2001, and $8,095,000, or $1.44 per share in
2000.

Returns on average equity were 13.45% in 2002, 13.34% in 2001, and 13.50% in
2000. Returns on average assets were 1.35% in 2002, 1.45% in 2001, and 1.46% in
2000.

NET INTEREST INCOME

The primary source of ACNB's traditional banking revenue is net interest income,
which represents the difference between interest income on earning assets and
interest expense on liabilities used to fund those assets. Earning assets
include loans, securities, and federal funds sold. Interest-bearing funds
include deposits and borrowings.

Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates, volume of interest
bearing assets and liabilities, and the composition of those assets and
liabilities. The "interest rate spread" and "net interest margin" are two common
statistics related to changes in net interest income. The interest rate spread
represents the difference between the yields earned on interest earning assets
and the rates paid for interest bearing liabilities. The net interest margin is
defined as the percentage of net interest income to average earning assets. Due
to demand deposits and stockholders' equity, the net interest margin exceeds the
interest rate spread, as these funding sources are non-interest bearing.

Table 1 presents net interest income, interest rate spread, and net interest
margin for the years ending December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. Table 2 analyzes
the changes in net interest income for the periods broken down by their rate and
volume components.

11

Net interest income in 2002 was $24,341,000, compared to $23,105,000 in 2001 and
$22,908,000 in 2000. ACNB has been able to increase its net interest income over
the last two years primarily through increases in average earning assets.

The interest rate spread and net interest margin have compressed over the last
year. The interest rate spread was 3.47% in 2002, down from 3.60% in 2001 and
3.53% in 2000. The net yield on earning assets experienced similar results,
totaling 3.91% in 2002, down from 4.27% in 2001 and 4.33% in 2000. Several
factors impacted the net interest margin for 2002. First, ACNB was in an asset
sensitive interest rate risk position in 2002, and interest earning assets
repriced more quickly than interest bearing liabilities. Longer-term funding
sources, including certificates of deposit, have to reach their maturity date to
reprice. Second, ACNB had a less profitable interest earning asset mix, as
deposits and borrowings were used to fund securities because loan growth
remained weak. Finally, the market area served by ACNB is highly competitive,
resulting in financial institutions pricing quality credits competitively in
order to increase volume.

Average earning assets were $622,890,000 in 2002, an increase of 15.1% over the
2001 balance of $541,117,000. Average earning assets for 2000 were $529,262,000.
Securities growth was the primary contributor to the increase in average earning
assets during these periods.

Average securities were $253,060,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002,
compared to $162,021,000 in 2001 and $169,796,000 in 2000. Weak loan growth,
coupled with strong growth in transaction accounts, required increased emphasis
on the securities portfolio which resulted in growth of 56.2% in 2002. Because
the bank has traditionally been a mortgage lender and mortgage-backed securities
carry higher interest rates than other agency securities, most of the securities
growth was in mortgage-backed securities. Mortgage backed securities grew from
$101,416,000 at December 31, 2001, to $180,696,000 at December 31, 2002. In
addition, corporate securities increased from $1,957,000 to $63,782,000 during
the same time period. The significant increase of corporate securities was
caused by extremely low U.S. Treasury and agency rates. The rate spread between
corporate and government securities indicated the need for a strong preference
for corporate securities. Many of the securities have a relatively short
duration that should provide sufficient liquidity to assist in the funding of
loan demand during 2003. Overall loan income is down due to lower rates, but
slow loan growth prevented the increase in volume from making up for the
decrease.

Average loans were $367,494,000 in 2002, versus $359,404,000 in 2001 and
$352,666,000 in 2000. The small increase in loans, in part, reflects the strong
competition from other financial institutions and changeover in loan personnel.

Average interest bearing liabilities were $516,897,000 in 2002, up from
$441,112,000 in 2001 and $423,494,000 in 2000. Funding to support loan and
securities growth came from an increase in interest bearing liabilities in 2002
and 2001, with a continued shift in mix from time deposits and borrowed money to
lower-cost demand and savings deposits.

TABLE 1 - COMPARATIVE AVERAGE BALANCE SHEET AND NET INTEREST ANALYSIS

The rate-volume variance analysis set forth in the table below compares changes
in net interest income for the periods indicated by their rate and volume
components. The change in interest income/expense due to both volume and rate
has been factored in proportionally.

TABLE 2 - ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN NET INTEREST INCOME

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses charged against earnings was $370,000 in 2002,
compared to $240,000 in 2001 and $240,000 in 2000. ACNB adjusts the provision
for loan losses periodically as necessary to maintain the allowance at a level
deemed to meet the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio. The $130,000, or
54.0%, increase in the provision for loan losses during 2002, compared to 2001,
reflects increases in net charge-offs and some growth in the loan portfolio.

See further discussion in the asset quality discussion of this annual report.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income was $5,028,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002, a 42.3%
increase over 2001. For the year ended December 31, 2001, non-interest income
totaled $3,533,000, an increase of 26.3% over 2000 totals.

Income from fiduciary activities, which includes both institutional and personal
trust management services and brokerage service fees, grew to $683,000 for the
year ended December 31, 2002, up from $569,000 in 2001 and $623,000 in 2000. At
December 31, 2002, ACNB had total assets under administration of approximately
$59,000,000 compared to $69,000,000 at the end of 2001 and $56,000,000 at the
end of 2000. The 2001 numbers include assets of approximately $11,000,000 in a
non-profit organization bond fund. These funds inflated 2001 totals, but were
paid out by the end of 2002. The increase in income for 2002 came from estate
management and brokerage fees, while the shortfall in 2001 resulted from lower
estate and agency revenue.

Service fees on deposit accounts were $1,913,000 in 2002, a 41.9% increase over
2001's total of $1,348,000. 2001 experienced a similar increase over 2000's
results, which were $989,000. The increase in both 2002 and 2001 is the result
of a new service called Overdraft Privilege. The new service allows checking
account overdrafts, up to a preset dollar amount, with a fee for every check
paid.

Other non-interest income totaled $2,432,000 for the year ended December 31,
2002, an increase of $816,000 or 50.5%, over 2001's amount of $1,616,000. The
2002 increase was spread across the entire spectrum, but several categories
showed notable increases. Gain on sale of other real estate was up $113,000,
earnings on bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) was up $151,000, loan fees were up
$84,000, and the bank gained a $60,000 litigation fee. Non-interest income for
2001 was up 26.3% over $2,797,000 in 2000. Income was enhanced during 2001 by an
increase in BOLI of $320,000, a rise in safe deposit box fees of $40,000, and
the introduction of a new public accounting service resulting in $37,000 in its
first year. BOLI is used to fund various employee benefit plans, and all
employees affected are aware of their insured status.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

The largest component of non-interest expense is salaries and employee benefits,
which increased $1,512,000, or 19.0%, to $9,454,000 in 2002, after increasing by
$351,000, or 4.6%, in 2001. The increase in salaries and employee benefits
during 2002 is attributable to the following factors:

o Normal merit increases to employees;

o The growth that ACNB has experienced, including two branches purchased
or leased in 2001, which were fully operational for the entire year,
and a new branch opened in the third quarter of 2002;

o Increases in administrative personnel expense as the bank's strategic
direction changes to a focus on greater growth; and,

o Increases in employee benefit costs, particularly health and welfare
benefit plans, consistent with the rising health care cost trend noted
nationwide and increased net periodic pension costs due to the
underperformance of investments in the pension plan.

Net occupancy expense was $829,000 in 2002, $701,000 in 2001, and $649,000 in
2000. The 18.3% increase experienced in 2002 was primarily the result of three
new branches, two of which opened in late 2001 and were fully operational for
the entire 2002 year. Another branch was opened in the third quarter of 2002.

Similarly, the 29.7%, or $323,000, increase in furniture and equipment expense
during 2002 versus 2001 was the result of an increase in number of locations, as
well as the increased maintenance costs associated with more sophisticated
delivery channels offered to the bank's customer base.

Professional service expense totaled $452,000 for the year ended December 31,
2002, a 16.3% decrease from 2001 results. This followed a 154.7% increase in
professional service expense experienced in 2001 as compared to 2000. The
increase in professional services can be attributed to the following factors:

o Payments for the rights to and implementation of Overdraft Privilege, a
new service described above. The payments were made in both 2001 and
2002.

14

o Payments made to a computer and operations consulting firm that also
extended over the last two years.

Other non-interest expense totaled $3,967,000 during 2002, versus $3,220,000 in
2001 and $2,900,000 in 2000. Significant expense components in this category
include marketing and advertising, postage, supplies, amortization of core
deposit intangibles, and Pennsylvania Shares Tax. The increase in expense noted
during 2002 and 2001 was the direct result of ACNB's overall growth, which
requires many of these types of expenses to increase as well.

INCOME TAXES

ACNB recognized income taxes of $3,107,000, or 25.9% of pre-tax income, in 2002.
Income tax expense was $3,734,000, or 30.9% of pre-tax income, in 2001 and
$4,158,000, or 33.9% of pre-tax income, in 2000. The variances from the federal
statutory rate of 35% are generally due to tax-exempt income and investments in
low-income housing partnerships (which qualify for federal tax credits).

The decline in the effective tax rate during 2002 is a result of a significant
historical tax credit associated with a just completed low-income housing
project. The downward trend in the effective tax rate from 2000 to 2002 is
consistent with the increase in tax-free investment securities during this
period.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Average earning assets increased in 2002 to $622,890,000 from $541,117,000 in
2001 and $529,262,000 in 2000. ACNB's investment portfolio has increased over
the last three years, as a result of planned growth using borrowed funds. To a
lesser degree, the slow growth in commercial and consumer loans contributed to
the increase in average earning assets. Average funding sources, or interest
bearing liabilities, increased in 2002 to $516,897,000 from $441,112,000 in 2001
and $423,494,000 in 2000.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

ACNB uses investment securities to generate interest and dividend income, to
manage interest rate risk, and to provide liquidity. The growth in the security
portfolio, in part, reflects the trends in loans, deposits, and borrowed funds
during 2002. As deposit and borrowing growth outpaced loan growth during 2002,
excess funding was invested in the securities portfolio. Much of the investment
activity focused on U.S. Government agencies, tax-free municipal, and corporate
securities. These securities provide the appropriate characteristics with
respect to yield and maturity relative to the management of the overall balance
sheet.

At December 31, 2002, the securities balance included a net unrealized gain on
available-for-sale securities of $4,089,000, net of taxes, versus a net
unrealized gain of $774,000, net of taxes at December 31, 2001. The reduction in
interest rates during 2002 versus 2001 led to the appreciation in the fair value
of securities during 2002.

15

TABLE 3 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities at December
31, 2002 and 2001, were as follows:

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities at December 31,
2002, by contractual maturity are shown below. Expected maturities may differ
from contractual maturities because some issuers have the right to call or
prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

16

TABLE 4 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES (YIELDS)

The weighted average yield of tax-exempt obligations has been calculated on a
taxable equivalent basis. The taxable equivalent adjustments are based on an
effective tax rate of 35%. The yield information does not give effect to changes
in fair value that are reflected as a component of stockholders' equity.

At December 31, 2002 and 2001, assets with a carrying value of $92,123,000 and
$77,744,000, respectively, were pledged as required or permitted by law to
secure certain public and trust deposits, repurchase agreements, or for other
purposes.

LOANS

Loans outstanding increased $10,767,000, or 3.0% in 2002, compared to 0.3%
growth experienced in 2001. The growth in loans is consistent with a stable
local economy and lending to support existing customers. The commercial loan
portfolio experienced solid growth during the period, increasing by
approximately $19,000,000. The improved growth experienced in 2002 is the result
of actively marketing commercial loans to local businesses. Additionally, ACNB
has been able to participate with other institutions on larger loans.

The approximately $18,000,000 decrease in real estate mortgage loans is due to
the inability to hold 30-year fixed-rate mortgage loans for the portfolio.
30-year fixed-rate mortgages are not compatible with the bank's asset-liability
operations. Given the low interest rates on newly-originated loans, management
continues to sell a high percentage of mortgage loans in the secondary market
than in the past in order to manage its interest rate risk position.

17

TABLE 5 - LOAN PORTFOLIO

Loans at December 31 are summarized as follows:

TABLE 6 - LOAN MATURITY AND INTEREST SENSITIVITY

The following table outlines the repricing opportunities for all loans
outstanding as of December 31, 2002. Loans with immediately adjustable rates,
such as loans tied to prime rate, are included in the within one year column.
Loans with rates that are adjustable at some time over the life of the loan are
included under the time heading when they become adjustable. All fixed-rate
loans are included under the heading in which they mature.

ASSET QUALITY

ACNB loan portfolios are subject to varying degrees of credit risk. Credit risk
is mitigated through prudent underwriting standards, on-going credit review, and
monitoring and reporting asset quality measures. Additionally, loan portfolio
diversification, limiting exposure to a single industry or borrower, and
requiring collateral also reduces ACNB's credit risk.

ACNB's commercial, consumer and residential mortgage loans are principally to
borrowers in south central Pennsylvania and northern Maryland. As the majority
of ACNB's loans are located in this area, a substantial portion of the debtor's
ability to honor their obligations may be affected by the level of economic
activity in the market area.

The unemployment rate in ACNB's market area remained below the national average
during 2002. Additionally, reasonably low interest rates, a stable local economy
and minimal inflation continued to support favorable economic conditions in the
area.

Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual and restructured loans, accruing loans
past due 90 days or more and other foreclosed assets. ACNB's general policy has
been to cease accruing interest on loans when management determines that a
reasonable doubt exists as to the collectibility to additional interest. When
management places a loan on non-accrual status, it reverses unpaid interest
credited to income in the current year. ACNB recognizes income on these loans
only to the extent that it receives cash payments. ACNB occasionally returns
nonaccrual loans to performing status when the borrower brings the loan current
and performs in accordance with contractual terms for a reasonable period of
time. ACNB categorizes a loan as restructured if it changes the terms of the
loan such as interest rate, repayment schedule or both, to terms that it
otherwise would not have granted originally.

18

TABLE 7 - NONACCRUAL, PAST DUE AND RESTRUCTURED LOANS

The following table presents information concerning the aggregate amount of
nonperforming assets as of December 31:

If interest due on all nonaccrual loans had been accrued at original contract
rates, it is estimated that income before income taxes would have been greater
by $55,000 in 2002, $99,000 in 2001, and $84,000 in 2000.

The corporation does not accrue interest on any loan when principal or interest
is in default for 90 days or more, unless the loan is well secured and in the
process of collection. Consumer loans and residential real estate loans secured
by 1-to-4 family dwellings shall ordinarily not be subject to these guidelines.

When a loan is placed in a nonaccrual status, all previously accrued, but
uncollected, interest is charged against the interest income account.

As of December 31, 2002, total nonperforming loans totaled $2,416,000, an
increase of $576,000 or 31.3% from December 31, 2001. The increase in
nonperforming loans is primarily the result of a large credit that moved into
still accruing, past due 90 days or more status during 2002. The loan is fully
secured by real estate. Although nonperforming loans increased, these levels are
within acceptable limits and are generally secured by real estate which
facilitates collection activity and keeps ultimate losses within reasonable
totals.

Potential problem loans are defined as performing loans that have
characteristics that cause management to have serious doubts as to the ability
of the borrower to perform under present loan repayment terms and which may
result in the reporting of these loans as nonperforming loans in the future.
Total potential problem loans approximated $2.4 million at December 31, 2002.
The majority of these loans are secured by real estate with acceptable
loan-to-value ratios.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

ACNB maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level believed adequate by
management to absorb potential losses in the loan portfolio and is established
through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Quarterly, the
corporation utilizes a defined methodology in determining the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses, which considers specific credit reviews, past loan
loss historical experience, and qualitative factors. This methodology, which has
remained consistent for the past several years, results in an allowance
consisting of two components, "allocated" and "unallocated".

Management assigns internal risk ratings for each significant commercial lending
relationship. Utilizing migration analysis for the previous eight quarters,
management develops a loss factor test, which it then uses to estimate losses
for non-rated and non-classified loans. When management finds loans with
uncertain collectibility of principal and interest, it places those loans on the
"problem list", and evaluates a specific reserve on a quarterly basis in order
to estimate potential losses. Management's analysis considers:

o adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay;

o estimated value of underlying collateral; and,

o prevailing market conditions.

If management determines that a specific reserve allocation is not required, it
assigns the general loss factor to determine the reserve. For homogeneous loan
types, such as consumer and residential mortgage loans, management bases
specific allocations on the average loss ratio for the previous three years for
each specific loan pool. Additionally, management adjusts projected loss ratios
for other factors, including the following:

19

o trends in delinquency levels;

o trends in non-performing and potential problem loans;

o trends in composition, volume and terms of loans;

o effects in changes in lending policies or underwriting procedures;

o experience, ability and depth of management;

o national and local economic conditions;

o concentrations in lending activities; and,

o other factors that management may deem appropriate.

Management determines the unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses
based on the following criteria:

o risk of error in the specific and general reserve allocations;

o other potential exposure in the loan portfolio;

o variances in management's assessment of national and local economic
conditions; and,

o other internal or external factors that management believes appropriate
at that time.

Management believes the above methodology accurately reflects losses inherent in
the portfolio. Management charges actual loan losses to the allowance for loan
losses. Management periodically updates the methodology discussed above, which
reduces the difference between actual losses and estimated losses.

Management bases the provision for loan losses, or lack of provision, on the
overall analysis taking into account the methodology discussed above.

20

TABLE 8 - SUMMARY OF LOAN LOSS EXPERIENCE

The allowance for loan losses increased $114,000 from $3,723,000 at December 31,
2001, to $3,837,000 at December 31, 2002. The allowance represents 1.02% of
loans outstanding at December 31, 2002, versus 1.03% as of the prior year-end.

Net charge-offs were $256,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002, versus
$212,000 in 2001, an increase of 20.7%. A primary reason for the increase in
charge-offs was a charge-off of approximately $160,000 in two loans due to
bankruptcy and deterioration of collateral. Charge-offs for 2003 will most
likely total between $200,000 and $300,000.

As a result of the increased net loan charge-offs and growth in commercial
loans, ACNB increased its provision for loan losses by $130,000 or 54.2%.

21

TABLE 9 - ALLOCATION OF ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allocation of the allowance for loan losses between the various loan
portfolios has changed over the past few years, consistent with the historical
net loss experience in each of the portfolios.

The largest reserve allocation is to the commercial, financial and agricultural
loan portfolio, which represents approximately 68% of the reserve balance. This
is because of specific allocations to the reserve for troubled credits and
continued loan growth in that category.

Nonperforming loans have increased during the year, this was primarily the
result of two large credits. Absent these two credits, the overall credit rating
of the portfolio is basically the same as 2001. This nonhomogeneous loan
portfolio continues to represent the greatest risk exposure to ACNB, as the
credits generally are significantly larger than the remainder of the portfolio
and the related collateral is not as marketable. Additionally, other external
factors such as quality of loan personnel have also been considered in
allocating this reserve balance.

Over the past several years, the allowance for loan losses as a percent of
outstanding loan balance has remained steady at approximately 1.02%. The
unallocated portion of the allowance reflects estimated inherent losses within
the portfolio that have not been detected. The unallocated portion of the
reserve exists due to risk of error in the specific and general reserve
allocations, other potential exposure in the loan portfolio, variances in
management's assessment of national and local economic conditions, and other
internal and external factors that management believes appropriate at the time.
The unallocated portion of the reserve has increased due to variances in
management's assessment of national and local economic conditions as may be
affected by the current political environment and other external factors.

While management believes ACNB's allowance for loan losses is adequate based on
information currently available, future adjustments to the reserve may be
necessary due to changes in economic conditions, and management's assumptions as
to future delinquencies or loss rates.

DEPOSITS

ACNB continues to rely on deposit growth as the primary source of funds for
lending activities. Average deposits increased 15.1% or $61 million in 2002.
This increase is greater than the 4.0% growth achieved in 2001. This growth has
been accomplished through the marketing of a special money market rate account
to compete with money market mutual funds. Additionally, due to consumers'
confidence slipping in the stock and mutual fund markets, deposits have grown as
these consumers migrate towards deposit products, which are generally regarded
as safer, more liquid investments. ACNB will continue to explore new products
for its customers, to attract and retain other funds seeking safe havens.

22

TABLE 10 - TIME DEPOSITS

Time deposits in denominations of $100,000 or more at December 31, 2002 and
2001, are summarized in the following table. The interest expense related to
time certificates of deposit in denominations of $100,000 or more totaled
$1,275,000 in 2002, $1,583,000 in 2001, and $943,000 in 2000.

BORROWINGS

Short-term borrowings are comprised primarily of securities sold under
agreements to repurchase, and overnight borrowings at the Federal Home Loan Bank
in Pittsburgh. As of December 31, 2002, short-term borrowings were $56,445,000,
an increase of $4,944,000, or 9.6%, from the December 31, 2001 balance of
$51,501,000.

Long-term debt consists of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank to fund
ACNB's growth in its securities portfolio. Long-term debt totaled $20,000,000 at
December 31, 2002, versus none outstanding at December 31, 2001. ACNB increased
its reliance on long-term debt during 2002 to match maturities with long-term
tax-free securities at positive spreads. The increase in long-term debt was a
direct result of management's intention to capitalize on the 30 year lows in
interest rates.

CAPITAL

The management of capital in a regulated financial services industry must
properly balance return on equity to stockholders while maintaining sufficient
capital levels and related risk-based capital ratios to satisfy regulatory
requirements. Capital management must also consider growth opportunities that
may exist, and the resulting need for additional capital. ACNB's capital
management strategies have been developed to provide attractive rates of returns
to stockholders, while maintaining its "well-capitalized" position.

The primary source of additional capital to ACNB is earnings retention, which
represents net income less dividends declared. During 2002, ACNB retained
$4,120,000, or 46%, of its net income. Stockholders' equity also increased as a
result of $3,287,000 net of taxes in other comprehensive income, which relates
primarily to unrealized gains on securities available-for-sale.

ACNB is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the
federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can
initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by
regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on ACNB.
Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, ACNB must meet specific capital guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet
items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts
and reclassifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the
regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
requires ACNB to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital
to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, that
ACNB met all minimum capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject and
are categorized as "well-capitalized". There are no conditions or events since
the notification that management believes have changed the subsidiary bank's
category.

23

TABLE 11 - RISKED-BASED CAPITAL

ACNB's capital ratios are as follows:

2002 2001
---- ----
Common stockholders' equity to assets 9.54% 9.95%
Tier 1 leverage ratio 9.00% 10.33%
Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio 15.13% 18.46%
Total risk-based capital ratio 16.03% 19.36%

LIQUIDITY

Effective liquidity management ensures the cash flow requirements of depositors
and borrowers, as well as the operating cash needs of ACNB are met.

ACNB's funds are available from a variety of sources, including assets that are
readily convertible to cash (federal funds sold, short-term investments),
securities portfolio, scheduled repayments of loans receivable, core deposit
base, and the FHLB. As of December 31, 2002, capacity to borrow from the FHLB
totaled approximately $335,000,000 with $40,000,000 being drawn down.

The liquidity of the parent company also represents an important aspect of
liquidity management. The parent company's cash outflows consist principally of
dividends to shareholders and corporate expenses. The main source of funding for
the parent company is the dividends it receives from its banking subsidiary.
Federal and state banking regulations place certain restrictions on dividends
paid to the parent company from the subsidiary banks. The total amount of
dividends that may be paid from the subsidiary bank to ACNB total $1,317,000 at
December 31, 2002.

ACNB manages liquidity by monitoring projected cash inflows and outflows on a
daily basis, and believes it has sufficient funding sources to maintain
sufficient liquidity under varying degrees of business conditions. Management
expects to incur approximately $7,000,000 in capital expenditures during
2003-2004, a significant portion for a proposed operations center.

TABLE 12 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Financial institutions can be exposed to several market risks that may impact
the value or future earnings capacity of an organization. These risks involve
interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk, commodity price risk and
equity market price risk. ACNB's primary market risk is interest rate risk.
Interest rate risk is inherent because as a financial institution, ACNB derives
a significant amount of its operating revenue from "purchasing" funds (customer
deposits and borrowings) at various terms and rates. These funds are then
invested into earning assets (loans, leases, investments, etc.) at various terms
and rates. This risk is further discussed below.

ACNB does not have any exposure to foreign currency exchange risk, commodity
price risk or equity market risk.

INTEREST RATE RISK

Interest rate risk is the exposure to fluctuations in the corporation's future
earnings (earnings at risk) and value (value at risk) resulting from changes in
interest rates. This exposure results from differences between the amounts of
interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities that reprice within a
specified time period as a result of scheduled maturities and repayment and
contractual interest rate changes.

The primary objective of the corporation's asset/liability management process is
to maximize current and future net interest income within acceptable levels of
interest rate risk while satisfying liquidity and capital requirements.
Management recognizes that a certain amount of interest rate risk is inherent,
appropriate, and necessary to ensure the corporation's profitability. Thus the
goal of interest rate risk management is to maintain a balance between risk and
reward such that net interest income is maximized while risk is maintained at a
tolerable level.

Management endeavors to control the exposure to changes in interest rates by
understanding, reviewing and making decisions based on its risk position. The
bank subsidiary asset/liability committee is responsible for these decisions.
The corporation primarily uses the securities portfolios and FHLB advances to
manage its interest rate risk position. Additionally, pricing, promotion and
product development activities are directed in an effort to emphasize the loan
and deposit term or repricing characteristics that best meet current interest
rate risk objectives. At present, there is no use of off-balance sheet
instruments.

The committee operates under management policies defining guidelines and limits
on the level of risk. These policies are approved by the Board of Directors.

The corporation uses simulation analysis to assess earnings at risk and net
present value analysis to assess value at risk. These methods allow management
to regularly monitor both the direction and magnitude of the corporation's
interest rate risk exposure. These modeling techniques involve assumptions and

25

estimates that inherently cannot be measured with complete precision. Key
assumptions in the analyses include maturity and repricing characteristics of
both assets and liabilities, prepayments on amortizing assets, non-maturity
deposit sensitivity and loan deposit pricing. These assumptions

are inherently uncertain due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of rate
changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other
factors. However, the analyses are useful in quantifying risk and provide a
relative gauge of the corporation's interest rate risk position over time.

EARNINGS AT RISK

Simulation analysis evaluates the effect of upward and downward changes in
market interest rates on future net interest income. The analysis involves
changing the interest rates used in determining net interest income over the
next twelve months. The resulting percentage change in net interest income in
various rate scenarios is an indication of the corporation's shorter-term
interest rate risk. The analysis utilizes a "static" balance sheet approach. The
measurement date balance sheet composition (or mix) is maintained over the
simulation time period, with maturing and repayment dollars being rolled back
into like instruments for new terms at current market rates. Additional
assumptions are applied to modify volumes and pricing under the various rate
scenarios. These include prepayment assumptions on mortgage assets, the
sensitivity of non-maturity deposit rates, and other factors deemed significant.

The simulation analysis results are presented in Table 13a. These results as of
December 31, 2002, indicate that the corporation would expect net interest
income to decrease over the next twelve months by 0.4% assuming an immediate
upward shift in market interest rates of 3.00% and to decrease by 8.9% if rates
shifted downward in the same manner. This profile reflects an asset sensitive
short-term rate risk position and exceeds guidelines set by policy.

Net interest income declines with both up and down directions of interest rates
because of a large amount of transaction accounts positioned to change rates
overnight. Since they are theoretically positioned to change rates immediately
they cause a negative change in net interest income regardless of direction of
interest rates. In actual practice, management would change these rates much
more gradually than the model predicts. Since interest rates are at 40-year
lows, an asset sensitive position will enable the corporation to capitalize on
rising rates.

VALUE AT RISK

The net present value analysis provides information on the risk inherent in the
balance sheet that might not be taken into account in the simulation analysis
due to the shorter time horizon used in that analysis. The net present value of
the balance sheet is defined as the discounted present value of expected asset
cash flows minus the discounted present value of the expected liability cash
flows. The analysis involves changing the interest rates used in determining the
expected cash flows and in discounting the cash flows. The resulting percentage
change in net present value in various rate scenarios is an indication of the
longer term repricing risk and options embedded in the balance sheet.

The net present value analysis results are presented in Table 13b. These results
as of December 31, 2002 indicate that the net present value would decrease 4.6%
assuming an immediate upward shift in market interest rates of 3.00% and to
increase 2.0% if rates shifted downward in the same manner. The risk position of
ACNB is within the guidelines set by policy.

The corporation's current strategy is to extend liability maturities and keep
asset maturities relatively short to protect against both greater earnings at
risk and value at risk.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS

ACNB Corporation provides banking and financial services to businesses and
consumers through its wholly-owned banking subsidiary of Adams County National
Bank. The corporation engages in full-service commercial and consumer banking
and trust services through its seventeen locations in Adams, Cumberland and York
counties.

During 2000, the corporation, along with seven other banks, entered into a joint
venture to form Pennbanks Insurance Company, an offshore reinsurance company.
Each participating entity owns an insurance cell through which its premiums and
losses from credit life, health and accident insurance are funded. Each entity
is responsible for the activity in its respective cell. The financial activity
for the insurance cell has been reported in the consolidated financial
statements.

The corporation's primary source of revenue is interest income on loans and
investment securities and fee income on its products and services. Expenses
consist of interest expense on deposits and borrowed funds, provisions for loan
losses, and other operating expenses.

BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and include the accounts of the
corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company
transactions have been eliminated. Financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles require management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures of
contingencies. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis of accounting, except for
trust department income and certain other fees which are recorded primarily on
the cash basis. Recognition of such income on an accrual basis is impractical
and would not materially affect net income.

For comparative purposes, prior years' consolidated financial statements have
been reclassified to conform with report classifications of the current year.

CASH EQUIVALENTS

For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows,
cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and
federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day
periods.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, securities are
required to be classified into one of three categories: held-to-maturity,
available-for-sale, or trading. Investments in securities which the corporation
has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as
held-to-maturity. These securities are accounted for at amortized cost. Other
securities are classified as available-for-sale. The difference between
amortized cost and fair value is an unrealized holding gain or loss included,
net of taxes, as accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity.
Management will reassess the appropriateness of the classifications each
quarter.

Amortization of premium and accretion of discount for investment securities is
computed by the straight-line method to the maturity date. There is not a
material difference between the straight-line method and the interest method.
Gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method. Income
is accrued the month it is earned.

LOANS AND REVENUE RECOGNITION

Loans are stated at their principal amount outstanding, except for mortgages
held for sale which are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or market value.
Interest income on loans is accrued as earned.

LOAN ORIGINATION FEES AND COSTS

Loan origination fees and the related direct origination costs are offset, and
the net amount is deferred and amortized over the life of the loan as an
adjustment to interest income.

ALLOWANCE FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES

The provision for possible loan losses charged to income is based upon
management's evaluation of outstanding loans, the historical loan loss
experience of the subsidiary, and the adequacy of the allowance for possible
loan losses. A significant change in this estimate could result in a material
change to net income.

33

Loans are deemed impaired when it is probable that the corporation will be
unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the loan agreement. The
corporation evaluates collectively for impairment large groups of smaller
balance homogeneous loans. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, all of the
corporation's impaired loans were on non-accrual status for all reported
periods.

PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Land is carried at cost. Bank premises and furniture and equipment are carried
at cost, less accumulated depreciation computed principally by the straight-line
method.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS

Nonperforming assets are comprised of loans for which the accrual of interest
has been discontinued due to a serious weakening of the borrower's financial
condition.

Loans are generally placed on a nonaccrual basis when principal or interest is
past due 90 days or more and when, in the opinion of management, full collection
of principal or interest is unlikely. At the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual
status, the accrual of interest is discontinued. Income on such loans is then
recognized only to the extent of cash received.

The basis in foreclosed real estate is carried at the lower of fair market
value, less costs to sell, or the carrying value of the related loan at the time
of acquisition.

INCOME TAXES

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income
tax rates applicable to the period in which deferred tax assets or liabilities
are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are
enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision
for income taxes.

NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share of common stock is computed on the basis of the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. The corporation
does not have diluted earnings per share.

ADVERTISING COSTS

Costs of advertising are expensed when incurred. Cost of advertising was
$312,000, $260,000 and $215,000, for the years ending December 31, 2002, 2001
and 2000, respectively.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The corporation has elected to reflect the statement of comprehensive income
within the consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity.
Comprehensive income reflects the impact of the change in unrealized gains and
losses on available-for-sale investments, net of tax, and the unfunded pension
liability, net of tax. During the years ended December 2002, 2001 and 2000,
comprehensive income did not require reclassification adjustments since there
were no realized investment gains or losses included in net income.

NOTE B

RESTRICTIONS ON CASH AND DUE FROM BANK ACCOUNTS

The bank is required to maintain average reserve balances with the Federal
Reserve Bank. The average amount of these reserve balances for the years ended
December 31, 2002 and 2001, were approximately $11,613,000 and $9,507,000,
respectively.

34

NOTE C

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of investment securities at December
31, 2002 and 2001 were as follows:

Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because some issuers
have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment
penalties.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities at December 31,
2002, by contractual maturity are shown below.

The following table outlines the repricing opportunities for all loans
outstanding as of December 31, 2002. Loans with immediately adjustable rates,
such as loans tied to prime rate, are included in the within one year column.
Loans with rates that are adjustable at some time over the life of the loan are
included under the time heading when they become adjustable.

All fixed-rate loans are included under the heading in which they mature.

36

Transactions in the valuation portion of the allowance for loan losses for the
past five years at December 31 are shown below:

The amounts of additional provision to the allowance were based on management's
judgment after considering an analysis of larger loans, all loans known to
management to have unusual risk characteristics, nonperforming or problem loans,
historical patterns of charge-offs and recoveries, and actual net charge-offs.
Further consideration was given to current economic and employment conditions
both nationally and in the corporation's local service area. Loans secured by
real estate comprised of 91% of the corporation's total loan portfolio at
December 31, 2002. The majority of loans in both the commercial, financial and
agricultural category and the consumer category are also secured by personal
property, negotiable assets, or business assets. This conservative policy
explains the low ratio of losses to loans experienced by the corporation over
the last five years. This policy did not change during the year ending 2002.
Management anticipates that charge-off amounts will approximate $200,000 to
$300,000 in 2003.

INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE PARTNERSHIPS

ACNB Corporation is a limited partner in three partnerships named Gettysburg
Scattered Sites Associates, Poplar Creek Apartments and Red Lion Opera House II,
whose purpose is to develop, manage and operate Residential low-income
properties. These investments are accounted for under the equity method of
accounting. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the carrying value of these
investments was approximately $2,558,000 and $1,179,000, respectively.

NOTE G

NONPERFORMING ASSETS

The following table presents information concerning the aggregate amount of
nonperforming assets of December 31:

If interest due on all nonaccrual loans had been accrued at original contract
rates, it is estimated that income before taxes would have been greater than
$55,000 in 2002, $99,000 in 2001, and $84,000 in 2000.

38

The corporation does not accrue interest on any loan when principal or interest
are in default for 90 days or more, unless the loan is well secured and in the
process of collection. Consumer loans and residential real estate loans secured
by 1-to-4 family dwellings shall ordinarily not be subject to these guidelines.

When a loan is placed in a nonaccrual status, all previously accrued, but
uncollected, interest is charged against the interest income account. Previously
accrued interest is not charged-off if principal and interest are protected by
sound collateral values.

The Corporation's capacity to borrow from FHLB totaled approximately
$335,000,000 at December 31, 2002, with $40,000,000 outstanding as of that date.

NOTE K

RESTRICTIONS ON SUBSIDIARY DIVIDENDS, LOANS AND ADVANCES

Certain restrictions exist regarding the ability of the bank to transfer funds
to the corporation in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. The
approval of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is required to pay
dividends in excess of earnings retained in the current year plus retained net
profits for the preceding two years. As of December 31, 2002, $1,317,000 of
undistributed earnings of the bank, included in consolidated retained earnings,
was available for distribution to the corporation as dividends without prior
regulatory approval.

Under national banking laws, the bank is also limited as to the amount it may
loan to its affiliates, including the corporation, unless such loans are
collateralized by specific obligations. At December 31, 2002, the maximum amount
available for transfer from the bank to the corporation in the form of loans was
approximately $6,522,000.

RETIREMENT PLANS

The corporation's subsidiary has a non-contributory pension plan. Retirement
benefits are a function of both years of service and compensation. The funding
policy is to contribute annually the amount that is sufficient to meet the
minimum funding requirements set forth in the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act. The total pension expense for the years ended December 31, 2002,
2001 and 2000 was $578,000, $406,000 and $341,000, respectively.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of the changes in the plan benefit
obligations and fair value of plan assets for the two plan years ended December
31, 2002 and 2001, and a statement of the funded status as of December 31, 2002
and 2001.

During 2002, the frozen defined benefit plan of the bank acquired in 1999 was
merged into the existing plan. The following table provides the components of
net periodic benefit costs for the years ending December 31:

The assumptions used in the measurement of the benefit obligations are shown in
the following table:

Plan assets consist of a deposit administration contract, various pooled
separate accounts, annuities, and an investment of 37,560 shares of common stock
with ACNB Corporation at December 31, 2002 and 2001.

The corporation's subsidiary has a 401(k) Salary Deferral Plan, which covers all
eligible employees. The annual expense included in salaries and benefits
amounted to $240,000, $204,000 and $225,000 for 2002, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

The corporation has non-qualified salary agreements with certain senior
management. The future commitments under these arrangements have been funded
through corporate-owned variable rate life insurance policies. At December 31,
2002 and 2001, the present value of the future obligations was $913,000 and
$797,000, respectively. The insurance policies included in other assets had a
total cash value of $3,614,000 and $3,237,000, respectively, at December 31,
2002 and 2001.

COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

The corporation is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk
in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers.
These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit and financial guarantees which involve, to varying degrees,
elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated
statements of condition. The corporation uses the same credit policies in making
commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet
instruments. A summary of significant commitments and contingent liabilities at
December 31, 2002 and 2001, is presented below.

IN THOUSANDS 2002 2001
---- ----
Commitments to extend credit $ 54,495 $ 51,479
Standby letters of credit 5,775 5,121

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses, and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire
without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The corporation evaluates each customer's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if
deemed necessary by the corporation upon extension of credit, is based on
management's credit evaluation of the creditor. The type of collateral may vary;
however, a significant portion of these financial instruments is secured through
real estate.

Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional
commitments issued by the corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer
to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support borrowing
arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is
essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

The corporation has a diversified loan portfolio and grants agribusiness,
commercial and residential loans to customers, substantially all of whom are
local residents in the corporation's primary marketplace.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The corporation is party to litigation and claims arising in the normal course
of business. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes that
the liabilities, if any, arising from such litigation and claims will not be
material to the consolidated financial position.

NOTE O

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The aggregate balance of loans (in excess of $60,000) made to directors and
executive officers in the normal course of business as of December 31, 2002 and
2001, was $1,793,000 and $1,157,000, respectively. The terms of these loans were
substantially the same as those for unrelated parties.

NOTE P

DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair
Value of Financial Instruments", requires all entities to disclose the estimated
fair value of its financial instrument assets and liabilities. For 2002 and
2001, approximately 96% of the corporation's assets and 90% of its liabilities
are considered financial instruments as defined in Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 107. Many of the corporation's financial instruments,
however, lack an available trading market as characterized by a willing buyer
and a willing seller engaging in an exchange transaction. Therefore, significant
estimations and present value calculations were used by the corporation for the
purposes of this disclosure.

43

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the
value.

Financial instruments actively traded in a secondary market have been valued
using quoted available market prices.

Fair values for net loans are estimated for portfolios with similar financial
characteristics. Loans are segregated into commercial, residential real estate,
and consumer. The loan categories are further segmented into fixed and
adjustable types. fair value for adjustable-rate commercial loans is considered
to be the same as the carrying value because these loans were made at the
corporation's prime lending rate, which is the same rate these loans would be
written as of the date of this financial statement. Fixed-rate commercial loans
have been revalued at a rate the corporation would use if the loans were written
as of December 31, 2002 and 2001. Mortgages and consumer loans have been
revalued using discounted cash flows. The mortgages were estimated using market
rates at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and consumer loans were revalued using
rates being charged by the corporation at year-end 2002 and 2001. Fair value for
nonperforming loans is based on current valuations of underlying collateral.

Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, the fair value of
deposits with no stated maturity, such as non-interest bearing demand deposits,
savings, NOW accounts, and money market checking accounts, is equal to the
amount payable on demand as of December 31, 2001. For December 31, 2002, the
asset and liability price tables published by the Office of Thrift Supervisor
were used to value deposits with no stated maturities. The fair value of
certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash
flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for
deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value estimates do not
include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding providing by the
deposit liabilities, compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market.

The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated taking into account
the remaining terms of the agreements and the creditworthiness of the
counterparties. For loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference
between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value
of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements,
or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations
with the counterparties. The contract amount and the estimated fair value for
commitments to extend credit and standby credits are charted.

Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-balance sheet financial
instruments without attempting to estimate the value of future business and the
value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments.
Significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial assets or
liabilities include deferred tax assets and liabilities and property and
equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of
unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on the fair value
estimates.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION RELATING TO OPERATING SEGMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Management of the corporation monitors and evaluates four segments of its
operations, which include commercial, consumer, mortgage lending and investment
securities. The corporation's marketplace is south central Pennsylvania which
encompasses Adams County and areas in contiguous counties of York, Franklin and
Cumberland, as well as sections of northern Maryland.

Commercial lending includes commercial mortgages, real estate development,
accounts receivable financing, and agricultural loans. Consumer lending programs
include home equity loans, automobile and recreational vehicle loans, and
manufactured housing loans. Mortgage lending programs include personal
residential mortgages, residential construction loans, and speculative
construction loans.

Management measures the net interest income of each segment based upon the
earnings and fees for each segment recognized less the charge for the funds
used. The charge for funds used is based on the average cost of funds used by
the respective segment. Other non-interest expense, which includes salaries and
employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expense, and other expenses, is
allocated to each segment and is netted against net interest income after
provision to possible loan losses to arrive at income before income taxes for
each respective segment.

The following tables are for the years ending December 31, 2002 and 2001, by the
four operating segments:

NOTE S

EFFECT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" in July 2001. SFAS No. 141 requires that
all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, shall be accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting. The pooling method of accounting is
prohibited. SFAS No. 142 prescribes accounting for all purchased goodwill and
intangible assets. The statement requires that acquired goodwill is not
amortized, but is tested for impairment at least annually or whenever an
impairment event arises. The Corporation does not have goodwill recorded on its
books; accordingly these provisions have no impact on the Corporation's
financial condition or results of operations.

SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets"
was effective for 2002. This statement requires an entity to recognize an
impairment loss if the carrying value amount of a long-lived asset or asset
group is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. These authoritative guidelines
had no effect on the corporation's financial condition or results of operations.

SFAS No. 147, "Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions - an amendment of
SFAS No. 72 and 144 and Interpretation No. 9 issued in October 2002, provided
guidance on the application of the purchase method of accounting to acquisitions
of financial institutions. In addition, the Statement amends SFAS No. 144 to
include in its scope, long-term customer-relationship intangible assets of
financial institutions. Those assets are subject to the same recoverability and
impairment recognition and measurement provisions provided for SFAS No. 144
effective as of October 2002. The corporation has $417,000 and $673,000 of core
deposit intangibles at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively related to the
acquisition of deposits from another institution in 2001.

In addition, during 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," an amendment to SFAS No.
123 issued in December 2002; SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with
Exit or Disposal Activities" issued in June 2002 and SFAS No. 145, "Rescission
of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64." Based upon the corporation's current
activities, these standards do not impact its accounting and reporting
requirements.

QUARTERLY RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Selected quarterly information for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001,
is as follows:

ITEM 9 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None

PART III

ITEM 10 - DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE REGISTRANT

The information required by this Item, relating to directors, executive
officers, and control persons, is set forth in sections "Principal Beneficial
Owners of the Corporation's Stock", "Information as to Nominees, Directors and
Executive Officers" and "Principal Officers of the Corporation" of the
Registrant's definitive Proxy Statement to be used in connection with the 2003
Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which pages are incorporated herein by
reference.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Compliance. Section 16(a) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Registrant's officers and
directors, and persons who own more than 10 percent of a registered class of the
Registrant's equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in
ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. Officers,
directors and greater than 10 percent shareholders are required by SEC
regulation to furnish the Registrant with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they
file.

Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms received by it or written
representations from certain reporting persons that no Forms 5 were required for
those persons, the Registrant believes that during the period of January 1,
2002, through December 31, 2002, its officers and directors were in compliance
with all filing requirements applicable to them.

ITEM 11 - EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

ITEM 14 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the corporation carried out
an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the
corporation's management, including the corporation's Chief Financial Officer,
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the corporation's disclosure
controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
("Exchange Act") Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the corporation's
Chief Executive Officer along with the corporation's Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the corporation's disclosure controls and procedures are
effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the
corporation (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in
the corporation's periodic Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings.
There have been no significant changes in the corporation's internal controls or
in other factors which could significantly affect these controls subsequent to
the date the corporation carried out its evaluation.

Disclosure controls and procedures are corporation controls and other procedures
that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the
Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the SEC's rules and forms.
