A. Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments,
including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months and
three months ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be experienced for the year ending December 31, 2002
or any other interim period. For further information, refer to the
Consolidated Financial Statements and Footnotes included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include Omega Financial

its wholly owned banking and non-banking subsidiaries.

B. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities:

In the ordinary course of business, Omega and its subsidiaries make
commitments to extend credit to their customers. At September 30, 2002 and

amounted to $13,560,000 and $16,413,000, respectively. These letters of
credit are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
Management does not anticipate any significant losses as a result of these
transactions.

At September 30, 2002, the Corporation had $162,244,000 outstanding in
unused lines of credit commitments extended to its customers. Of this
amount, $38,870,000, or 24.0%, are commitments to consumers for home

E. Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities". This Statement nullifies Emerging
Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for
Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity
(including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The principal
difference between this Statement and Issue No. 94-3 relates to its
requirements for recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an
exit or disposal activity. Statement 146 requires that such a liability be
recognized when the liability is incurred as opposed to the date of an
entity's commitment to an exit plan, as defined in Issue No. 94-3. The
provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities
that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application
encouraged. The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's results of operations or financial
position.

In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 62, Amendment of
FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections (Statement 145). Among
other things, Statement 145 eliminates the requirement under FASB
Statement No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt to
report gains and losses from extinguishments of debt as extraordinary
items in the income statement. Similarly, FASB Statement No. 64,
Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements has been
rescinded. Accordingly, gains or losses from extinguishments of debt for
fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 shall not be reported as
extraordinary items unless the extinguishment qualifies as an
extraordinary item under the provisions of APB Opinion No. 30. Statement
145 also amends Statement 13 to require certain modifications to capital
leases be treated as a sale-leaseback and modifies the accounting for
sub-leases when the original lessee remains a secondary obligor (or
guarantor). The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's results of operations or financial
condition.

In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions. The Statement
provides guidance on the accounting for the acquisition of a



financial institution, which had previously been addressed in FASB
Statement No. 72, Accounting for Certain Acquisitions of Banking or Thrift
Institutions. Statement 72 required that the excess of the fair value of
liabilities assumed over the fair value of tangible and identifiable
intangible assets be recognized as an unidentifiable intangible asset.
That asset was to be amortized over a period no greater than the life of
the long-term interest-bearing assets acquired. Statement 147 states that
this excess, if acquired in a business combination, represents goodwill
that should be accounted for in accordance with FASB Statement No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The balance of previously recognized
unidentifiable intangible assets arising from a business combination
should be reclassified to goodwill as of the date the company initially
adopted Statement 142. Companies that reclassify goodwill in accordance
with the Statement are then required to restate previously issued
financial statements to present the balance sheet and income statement as
if the unidentifiable intangible asset had been reclassified as of the
date the company adopted Statement 142. The provisions of Statement 147
are effective October 1, 2002. The Company's adoption of this Statement
does not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial
position.

addition to the factors discussed in this report, certain risks,
uncertainties and other factors, including without limitation, risks
arising from economic conditions and related uncertainties, changes in
interest rates, federal and state regulation, competition and the adequacy
of the allowance and provision for loan losses, are discussed in this
Report on Form 10-Q, the Corporation's 2001 Annual Report or in Omega's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. Copies of
these reports may be obtained from Omega upon request and without charge

1. Comparison of the Nine and Three Months Ended September 30, 2002 and 2001

Operations Overview

A. Nine months ended September 2002 and 2001

For the first nine months of 2002, income before income taxes increased by
$750,000, or 4.4%, compared to the same period in 2001. Income from credit
activities decreased $220,000, or 0.7%. Non-interest income increased
$1,345,000 or 13.7% while non-interest expense increased $375,000, or
1.4%, compared to the same period in 2001.

The tax provision for the first nine months of 2002 decreased by $49,000,
or 1.2% when compared to the first nine months of 2001. The effective tax
rate for this period fell to 23.5% in 2002 from 24.9% for the
corresponding period in 2001. Net income increased by $799,000, or 6.2%,
in the first nine months of 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001.

B. Three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001

The third quarter's income before income taxes increased $1,105,000, or
20.3%, when compared to the same period in 2001. Non-interest income
increased $868,000, or 27.4%, income from credit activities increased by
$352,000, or 3.2%, and non-interest expense increased by $115,000, or
1.3%, compared to the same period in 2001.

After the income tax provision (which increased by $369,000, or 28.8%
compared to the same period in 2001) was deducted from earnings, net
income was $736,000, or 17.7%, higher than the third quarter of



2001. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2002 was 25.2%, as
compared to the third quarter of 2001 of 23.6%.

compared to 2001's third quarter, while cost of funding decreased by 112
basis points, resulting in an increase in net interest income of $401,000,
or 3.6%.

Following are key net interest margin ratios (annualized):



Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended
September 30 September 30
------------------------ ------------------------
2002 2001 2002 2001
---------- ---------- ---------- ----------

Yield on average earning assets ................................ 6.09% 7.06% 6.17% 7.34%
Cost to fund earning assets .................................... 1.73 2.85 1.90 3.06
Net interest margin ............................................ 4.36 4.21 4.27 4.28
Net interest margin - tax equivalent ........................... 4.66 4.52 4.57 4.57


At September 30, 2002, Omega had $444,921,000 of earning assets scheduled
to reprice over the next twelve months as compared to $472,685,000 in
interest bearing liabilities, resulting in a negative gap of $27,764,000,
or 2.4% of assets. In order to predict net interest income at risk over
the next twelve months based on hypothetical rate movements, a rate shock
simulation was performed on the balance sheet. In the event that interest
rates would decrease immediately by 100 basis points, results of the rate
shock simulation indicate that Omega's net interest income over the next
twelve months would decrease by approximately 3.0%, or $806,000.
Conversely, the results of a rate shock simulation of an immediate 100
basis point increase in interest rates indicates an increase in net
interest income of approximately $835,000, or 1.8% over a twelve-month
period. These simulations assume no volume or mix changes in the balance
sheet. There have been no material changes in reported market risk since
December 31, 2001.

Loan Loss Provision



In the third quarter of 2002, a loan loss provision of $150,000 was
recorded, bringing the year to date provision to $630,000 in 2002. In
2001, $101,000 was recorded as a provision for loan losses for the third
quarter and year to date. The increase in non-performing loans and the
analysis of loans on Omega's watch list was responsible for the increase.

Other Income and Expense

A. Nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001

Other income increased $1,345,000, or 13.7% in the first nine months of
2002 as compared to the same period in 2001. Excluding gains resulting
from sales of investment securities and other assets, normal operating
non-interest income rose by $1,202,000, or 12.6%. During the second
quarter of 2002, a new product was introduced to provide overdraft
coverage services to customers. Use of this product has helped to generate
an increase in fee income of $440,000. Other increases in service fee
income on deposit accounts boosted this category to a total of $498,000,
or 16.2% improvement in 2002 over the same period in 2001. Trust fee
income increased by $292,000, or 11.6% in the first nine months of 2002 as
compared to the first nine months of 2001. Earnings on the cash surrender
value of Bank Owned Life Insurance (BOLI) improved non-interest income by
$358,000 in 2002 when compared to 2001. Additionally, increases in service
fees onloans accounted for $57,000 of the total increase in non-interest
income. Investment security gains in the first nine months of 2002
exceeded those recorded in the first nine months of 2001 by $143,000, or
42.8%.

As a percentage of average assets, annualized other income net of gains
from the sale of securities and other assets was 1.24% for the first nine
months of 2002 as compared to 1.12% for 2001.

Other expenses were $375,000, or 1.4%, higher for the first nine months of
2002 than for the same period in 2001. Salaries and employee benefits were
$40,000, or 0.3% higher in the first nine months of 2002 than in the same
period in 2001. Combined occupancy and equipment expenses increased by
$206,000 compared to the same period in 2001. Data processing fees
increased by $50,000 or 4.2% because of additional new servicing needed.
Other expense increased by $79,000, or 1.1% in the first nine months of
2002 as compared to the same period in 2001, due primarily to costs
associated with setup of the new Omega Insurance Agency subsidiary.

As a percentage of average assets, annualized expenses for the period
ended September 30, 2002 were 3.11% and were 3.13% for the same period in
2001.

B. Three months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001

Other income increased $868,000, or 27.4%, in the third quarter of 2002 as
compared to the same period in 2001. Service fee income increased by
$393,000, or 38.2%, primarily as a result of the new overdraft coverage
product initiated in the second quarter of 2002. Trust fees were $104,000,
or 11.7%, higher in the third quarter of 2002 as compared to the same
period in 2001. Gains on the sale of investment securities, loans and
other assets were $245,000 higher in the third quarter of 2002 than in the
third quarter of 2001. Other non-interest income was $126,000 higher in
2002 than in 2001, primarily resulting from increases in BOLI income.

As a percentage of average assets, annualized other income net of gains on
securities, loans and other assets was 1.31 % for the third quarter of
2002 as compared to 1.11 % for the same period in 2001.

Other expenses increased $115,000, or 1.3%, in the third quarter of 2002
as compared to the same period in 2001. Salaries and employee benefits
increased $31,000, or 0.6%, in 2002 as compared to the same period in
2001. Occupancy and equipment expense in total increased by $182,000, or
17.4%, while data processing expense increased $15,000, or 3.7%, compared
to the same period in 2001. Other non-interest expenses decreased by
$113,000 or 4.7%, compared to the same period in 2001 as a result of lower
claims incurred on credit insurance.

As a percentage of average assets, annualized expenses for the quarter
ended September 30, 2002 were 3.11% and were 3.09% for the same period in
2001.

Federal Income Tax



Income tax expense decreased by $49,000, or 1.2%, in the first nine months
of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. The effective tax rate for
the nine months ended September 30, 2002 was 23.5% compared to the same
period in 2001 when the effective tax rate was 24.9%. This improvement was
due primarily to the 12.9% increase in average outstanding tax-free
investments and loans year to date.

2. Investment Securities

Management of the investment portfolio entails evaluation and realignment
of the size and mix of the portfolio in order to balance various
characteristics of the balance sheet, including asset quality, liquidity,
yield relationships, maturity and tax planning. The following schedule
details characteristics of the investment portfolio as of September 30,
2002 and December 31, 2001.

Total investment securities as a percentage of total assets at September
30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 were 22.9% and 23.1%, respectively.
Securities maturing or repricing in one year or less comprised 31.8% of
the total investment securities of $263,677,000 as of September 30, 2002,
as compared to 32.0% of total investment securities of $267,352,000 as of
December 31, 2001. There was $210,000 in investments in instruments of
foreign countries on September 30, 2002.

3. Loans

Net loans in the first nine months of 2002 increased by $30,680,000, or
4.1% from the balance at December 31, 2001, bringing the total to
$779,810,000 at September 30, 2002. The growth in the loan portfolio is
primarily in the commercial mortgage loan category. Residential mortgage
loans have not changed, while other personal consumer loans have declined
by $20,000,000.

Changes in the allowance for loan losses for the nine months ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001 were as follows (in thousands):

2002 2001
---------- ----------
Balance at January 1 ..................... $ 11,224 $ 11,622

Charge-offs .............................. (478) (522)
Recoveries ............................... 79 278
---------- ----------
Net charge-offs ...................... (399) (244)

Provision for loan losses ................ 630 101
---------- ----------

Balance at September 30 .................. $ 11,455 $ 11,479
========== ==========

Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate, based
upon its analysis of the loans, current economic conditions and certain
risk characteristics of the loan portfolio. This determination is made
through a structured review of impaired loans, non-performing loans and
certain performing loans designated as potential problems. The allowance
for loan losses at September 30, 2002 and 2001 represented 1.45% and
1.47%, respectively, of the total loans outstanding, net of unearned
interest.

Set forth below is an analysis of Omega's non-performing loans as of
September 30, 2002 as compared to December 31, 2001.

Non-performing Loans
(In thousands)



September 30, December 31,
2002 2001
---------- ----------

Non-accrual loans ........................ $ 2,436 $ 2,327
Accruing loans past due 90 days or more .. 1,976 1,209
Restructured loans ....................... 14 32
---------- ----------
Total non-performing loans ............... $ 4,426 $ 3,568
========== ==========

Non-performing loans as percent of allowance 38.6% 31.8%


The increase in non-performing loans from December 31, 2001 to September
30, 2002 is primarily due to an increase in loans delinquent by more than
90 days.

4. Deposits and Other Sources of Funds

Deposits provide the primary source of funding for loans and investment
securities. At September 30, 2002, total deposits decreased by $8,262,000
or 0.9%, as compared to December 31, 2001. As of September 30, 2002,
interest bearing deposits have decreased by $21,781,000, or 2.7% and
non-interest bearing accounts have increased by $13,519,000 or 9.8%, when
compared to September 30 2001.



5. Regulatory Capital Compliance

Bank regulatory authorities in the United States issue risk-based capital
standards. These capital standards relate a banking company's capital to
the risk profile of its assets and provide the basis by which all banking
companies and banks are evaluated in terms of capital adequacy. The
risk-based capital standards require all banks to have Tier 1 capital of
at least 4% and total capital, including Tier 1 capital, of at least 8% of
risk-adjusted assets. Tier 1 capital includes common stockholders' equity
and qualifying perpetual preferred stock together with related surpluses
and retained earnings. Total capital is comprised of Tier 1 capital,
limited life preferred stock, qualifying debt instruments, and the
reserves for possible loan losses. Banking regulators have also issued
leverage ratio requirements. The leverage ratio requirement is measured as
the ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted average assets.

At September 30, 2002, Omega and each of its banking subsidiaries met the
regulatory definition of a "well capitalized" financial institution, i.e.,
a leverage ratio exceeding 5%, Tier 1 capital exceeding 6% and total
capital exceeding 10%.

6. Share Repurchase Program

In January of 2002, the Board approved a new share repurchase program to
begin immediately, authorizing management to buy back an additional 10% of
its common stock. At that time, there were 8,222,010 common shares
outstanding with 822,201 shares eligible to be repurchased. This program
will remain in effect through December 31, 2002, or until the 10% limit is
reached; however, it may be discontinued at any time. As of October 21,
2002, 252,267 shares have been repurchased in conjunction with this
program.



Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Omega is impacted by market risks, and has procedures in place to evaluate
and mitigate these risks. These market risks and Omega's procedures are
described in the Management's Discussion and Analysis section of the 2001
Annual Report to Shareholders. To the knowledge of Omega, there have been
no material changes in the market risks that impact Omega or their
procedures relative to these risks, since December 31, 2001.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their
