NOTE A - Basis of Presentation

The financial information includes the accounts of the Juniata Valley Financial
Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Juniata Valley Bank.  All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered
necessary for fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1999.  For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in Juniata Valley Financial Corp. annual report on
Form 10-k for the year ended December 31, 1998.

NOTE B - Accounting Standards

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", in June 1998.  Statement
No. 133 was amended by Statement No. 137 which deferred the effective date of
Statement No. 133.  The Corporation is required to adopt the Statement no later
than January 1, 2001.  The adoption of the Statement is not expected to have a
significant impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the
Corporation.

NOTE C - Year 2000

The Corporation has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer systems to
identify the systems that could be affected by the year 2000 issue and is
developing an implementation plan to resolve any issues.  The year 2000 problem
is the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than
four to define the applicable year.  Any of the Corporation's programs that
have time-sensitive software could recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900
rather than the year 2000.  This could result in a major system failure.
Financial institutions are in a unique situation in that time-deposits and
loans, for a number of years have had maturity dates in to the future well
beyond the year 2000.

The year 2000 issue is discussed weekly by senior management and monthly at
Board of Director meetings.  The Chairman and C.E.O. has been named as the
person responsible for the year 2000 issue.  Currently the Corporation has
completed the testing phase of year

<PAGE>

2000 and to date there have been no problems encountered that any remediation
is necessary.

The Corporation uses two major software vendors for data processing.  Letters
of certification have been obtained assuring that they were year 2000 compliant
in 1998 and testing commenced in the fall of 1998.  The vendors are still on
target with these dates.  The Federal Financial Institutions Examination
Council have conducted special examinations to make sure that the software
vendors are doing everything necessary to be in compliance with the year 2000
guidelines.  The results of these examinations have been released to the
Corporation for review.
Because of the data processing being outsourced, the cost of the year 2000
compliance will be shared with the two data processing vendors.  Because of the
Bank's merger in July, 1998, it is very difficult to separate equipment costs
for the merger and the cost of what was necessary for the year 2000.  To date
approximately $55,000 has been expended that can be attributed to year 2000.
This does not include personnel cost for the ongoing testing.  Approximately
$70,000 to $80,000 may be needed for future remediation costs.  Management does
not feel this cost will materially impact the results of operations of the
Corporation in 1999.

Another important area is the Corporation's PC network.  Testing has been
performed on all PC's and the software to ensure that they are year 2000
compliant.  The PC and software was tested by a third party to make
recommendations for upgrading or replacing.  This process was completed in June
of 1998 and all additional purchases of equipment and software are validated
for year 2000 so that reinfection will not occur.

The Corporation has many customers and through the use of questionnaires the
larger loan customers are being assessed for their potential year 2000 risk.
No individual customer could materially impact the financial position of the
Corporation, however the credit risk could be increased if these customers are
not addressing their year 2000 problems.  As a result, problem loans and losses
could increase in the following years of operation for the Corporation.  Due to
uncertainties involved, it is not possible to quantify potential losses due to
year 2000 at this time.

A contingency plan to provide financial services to customers will be provided
to the Corporation through the software vendors currently used.  A switch to
other systems could be accomplished with little to no impact to customers.
Management believes they would continue to operate in the year 2000, manually
if necessary, until the new systems would be in place.  The manual operation
would be accomplished through hiring of temporary staff until normal operations
could resume.  The hiring of additional staff would impact the financial


<PAGE>

results but cannot be quantified at this time.  The cost of switching to the
new system also cannot be quantified at this time.

Management believes that adequate resources are available to fund and address
the year 2000 issue.  Management also believes that the costs associated with
bringing the Corporation into compliance will not have a material impact on the
Corporation's financial results.  However, with all remediation, testing and
contingency plans there is no guarantee that these steps will fully expose all
failures and problems.  In addition, the Corporation relies on various third
party providers, such as telecommunications and utility companies, where
alternative sources or arrangements are limited or unavailable.  While the
Corporation continues to address year 2000 issues, potential uncertainties
remain.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Forward Looking Statements:

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains safe harbor
provisions regarding forward-looking statements.  When used in this discussion,
the words "believes," "anticipates," "contemplates," "expects," and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause
actual results to differ materially from those projected.  Those risks and
uncertainties include changes in interest rates, risks associated with the
effect of opening a new branch, the ability to control costs and expenses, and
general economic conditions.  The Corporation undertakes no obligation to
publicly release the results of any revisions to those forward-looking
statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Financial Condition:

Total assets of Juniata Valley Financial Corp. totalled $333,861,000 as of
September 30, 1999, a decrease of $9,996,000 or 2.91% from December 31, 1998.
The cash provided by operating activities of $3,228,000 was used to fund loan
growth of $6,509,000.  Loan growth was also funded by the overall decline in
cash and cash equivalents of $10,141,000.  Securities proceeds exceeded
purchases by $6,520,000 which provided cash and updating premise and equipment
used $420,000 of cash.  The Bank experienced a decline in deposits of
$8,627,000.  Along with an $.88 per share dividend and the $2,558,000 to buy
treasury stock the Bank used $12,960,000 in financing activities.

There are no material loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss,
doubtful, substandard or special mention which management expects to
significantly impact future operating results, liquidity or capital resources.
Additionally, management is not aware of any information which would give
serious doubt as to the ability of its borrowers to substantially comply with
their loan repayment terms.  The Corporation's problem loans (i.e., 90 days
past due and restructured loans) were not material for all periods presented.

Management is not aware of any current recommendations of the regulatory
authorities which, if implemented, would have a
material effect on the Corporation's liquidity, capital resources or
operations.

Results of operations:

Interest income decreased $334,000 or 5.33% for the quarter ended September 30,
1999 and $799,000 for nine months. The decline came from the $353,000 less in
interest income on loans receivable.  Interest income on taxable securities
declined by $910,000 but interest income on tax free securities increased by
$696,000.  The decline in other interest income was due to less money in
federal funds sold.  Interest expense decreased $273,000 or 8.86% for the
quarter and $565,000 or 6.21% for nine months.  Interest income and expense for
the first nine months ended September
30, 1999, versus 1998, are reflective of a decrease of both interest earning
assets and interest bearing liabilities and overall lower rates offered and
paid in 1999 versus 1998.  This resulted in a decrease in net interest income
of $234,000 or 2.43% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
Other income has decreased $167,000 or 38.84% for the quarter in 1999 over 1998
and $73,000 or 7.93% for nine months.  Gains on sales of securities that
occurred during the third quarter of 1998 of $208,000, account for this
decrease because there were no sales of securities in 1999.  Trust department
income has increased $40,000, customer service fees have increased $44,000 and
other income has increased $55,000.  The increase in trust department income is
a result of the settlement of five estates in 1999.  The increase in customer
service fees is a result of higher transaction volume as opposed to an increase
in fees.  The other category increase can be attributed to an increase in
mutual fund commissions of $39,000 and a $26,000 increase in fees earned on
debit card resulting from higher transaction volume.

Other expenses increased $62,000 or 1.04% for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 and decreased $285,000 or 12.48% for the quarter.  During the third
quarter of 1998, the Corporation recognized the $345,000 of merger expenses
that did not occur in 1999.  The $254,000 increase in salary and wages for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, compared to 1998, can be attributed to
annual merit increases and promotions of employees.  The $47,000 increase in
employee benefits is primarily due to a keyman pension plan in place for 10
years that required additional funding as employees age.  The $300,000 increase
in equipment costs is due to increased equipment needs and maintenance after
the merger between Lewistown Trust and the Corporation was consummated.

All of these factors combined have contributed to a decrease in net income of
$227,000 or 6.85% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

<PAGE>


Liquidity:

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that sufficient funding is
available, at a reasonable cost, to meet the ongoing operational cash needs of
the Corporation and to take advantage of income producing opportunities as they
arise.  While the desired level of liquidity will vary depending upon a variety
of factors, it is the primary goal of the Corporation to maintain a high level
of liquidity in all economic environments.

Principal sources of asset liquidity are provided by securities maturing in one
year or less, other short-term investments such as Federal Funds sold and cash
and due from banks.  Liability liquidity, which is more difficult to measure,
can be met by attracting deposits and maintaining the core deposit base.
Although the Bank has experienced an outflow of deposits with a decline of over
eight million dollars, Management does not believe this will continue and it
will not be a factor in meeting liquidity needs.  The Corporation joined the
Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh in August of 1993 for the purpose of
providing short-term liquidity when other sources are unable to fill these
needs.

In view of the primary and secondary sources previously mentioned, Management
believes that the Corporation's liquidity is capable of providing the funds
needed to meet loan demand.

Interest rate sensitivity:

Interest rate sensitivity management is the responsibility of the
Asset/Liability Management Committee.  This process involves the development
and implementation of strategies to maximize net interest margin, while
minimizing the earnings risk associated with changing interest rates.  The
traditional gap analysis identifies the maturity and repricing terms of all
assets and liabilities.

As of September 30, 1999, the Corporation had a six-month negative gap of
$16,344,000.  Generally a liability sensitive position indicates that more
liabilities than assets are expected to re-price within the time period and
that falling interest rates could positively affect net interest income while
rising interest rates could negatively affect net interest income.  However,
the traditional analysis does not accurately reflect the Bank's interest rate
sensitivity since the rates on core deposits generally do not change as quickly
as market rates.  Historically net interest income has, in fact, not been
subject to the degree of sensitivity indicated by the traditional analysis at
The Juniata Valley Bank.

Risk Weighted Assets Ratio:

                                                Actual           Required

At September 30, 1999, the Corporation exceeds the regulatory requirements
to be considered a "well capitalized" financial institution.
