          NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements of Advance Financial Bancorp (the
"Company"), includes its wholly-owned subsidiary, Advance Financial Savings
Bank (the "Bank"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Advance Financial Service
Corporation of West Virginia.  All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do
not necessarily include all information that would be included in audited
financial statements.  The information furnished reflects all adjustments
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the
results of operations.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. 
The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1998.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 1997 and related notes which
are included on the Form 10-KSB (file no. 0-21885).

NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."  This statement
redefines the standards for computing earnings per share (EPS) previously
found in Accounting Principles Board opinion No. 15, Earnings Per Share. 
Statement 128 establishes new standards for computing and presenting EPS and
requires dual presentation of "basic" and "diluted" EPS on the face of income
statement for all entities with complex capital structures.  Under Statement
128, basic EPS is to be computed based upon income available to common
shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
the period.  Diluted EPS is to reflect the potential dilution exercised or
converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that
then shared in the earnings of the Company.  Statement 128 also requires the
restatement of all prior-period EPS data presented.  The Company currently
maintains a simple capital structure, thus there are no dilutive effects on
earnings per share.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND JUNE 30, 1997
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total assets increased by approximately $3,469,000 to $108,032,000 at December
31, 1997 from $104,563,000 at June 30, 1997.  Interest-bearing deposits with
other institutions decreased $2,064,000 to $3,825,000 at December 31, 1997
from $5,888,000 at June 30, 1997. This decrease was used primarily to
supplement the growing loan demand within the bank's market area.

Investment securities decreased $3,355,000 or 42.5% from $7,899,000 at June
30, 1997 to $4,545,000 at December 31, 1997.  This decrease in the U.S.
Government securities held to maturity classification was the result of
approximately $3.6 million in securities being called during the six month
period.  Management replaced only $1 million of these type investment 
securities with similar instruments with maturities ranging from three to six
years and used the remaining proceeds to satisfy loan demand.

Net loan receivables increased $8,282,000 or 9.6% from $86,068,000 at June 30,
1997 to $94,350,000 at December 31, 1997.  There were increases in residential
mortgages of $4,428,000, non-residential mortgages of $2,140,000 and $986,000
in participation loans. Such increases primarily reflected the economic health
of the Bank's market area and the competitive pricing of the Bank's loan
product.  The funding of the loan growth was mainly provided by the means
discussed above, specifically the usage of interest-bearing deposits with
other institutions and the maturity of investment securities. To a lesser
extent, increased borrowings with the Federal Home Loan Bank of $1,982,000
also contributed to this funding.

Net office properties and equipment increased 14.5% or $297,000 from
$$2,056,000 at June 30, 1997 to $2,353,000 at December 31, 1997.  This is
directly related to preparation for the new branch opening in Wintersville,
Ohio.

Deposits increased slightly by $1,158,000 to $81,227,000 at December 31, 1997
from $80,069,000 at June 30, 1997. This increase primarily represents deposits
accumulated via a new money market product for balances greater than $10,000
offered at a preferential rate which has grown to $6,459,000. Customer
preference to this new product is exhibited by a decline in savings accounts
which has offset the growth of this new product.

Equity capital increased by $318,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1997, as a result of net income of $420,000 and recognition of shares in the
Employee Stock Ownership Plan amounting to $72,000.  Cash dividends paid of
approximately $161,000 reduced the impact of these other events. Future
dividend policies will be determined by the Board of Directors in light of the
earnings and financial condition of the Company, including applicable
governmental regulations and policies.

COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
------------------------------------------------------------------
DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996
---------------------------

Net interest income increased $441,000 or 28.1%, to $2,009,000 for the six
months ended December 31, 1997 compared to $1,568,000 for the six months ended
December 30, 1996. The increase in interest income resulted primarily from an
increase in earnings on loans of $459,000 or 13.9% and investment securities
of $71,000 or 47.3%. These increases, which were due to an increase in the
average principal balances of $9,472,000 for loans and $1,890,000 for
investment securities were funded by proceeds from the sale of common stock in
December 1996 and advances from FHLB.  The yield on investments increased from
6.7% for the six months ended December 31, 1996 to 7.1% for the same period
ended December 31, 1997.  This increase was the result of a combination of a
slight increase in rates coupled with the maturing of $3.6 million of lower
yielding U.S. Government obligations. 

Interest expense increased $95,000 or 4.7% from $2,021,000 for the six months
ended December 31, 1996 to $2,116,000 for the same period ended 1997.  The
increase was primarily due to the average volume of interest-bearing
liabilities of $6,252,000 due to the marketing of a new money market deposit
product amounting to $6,460,000 coupled of with an increase in the average
balance of advances from the FHLB of $1,501,000.  This was offset by a decline
in the average balance of savings deposits of $1,968,000, as customers
preferred the advantages of the new deposit product, as well as a decline the
cost of funds from 4.7% for the six months ended December 31, 1996 to 4.6% for
the same period ended December 31, 1997.  

Based upon management's continuing evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance
for loan losses which encompasses the overall risk characteristics of the
various portfolio segments, past experience with losses, the impact of
economic conditions on borrowers, and other relevant factors, the provision
for loan losses increased by $29,000 for the six months ended December 31,
1997 compared to the same period ended 1996.  See "Risk Elements".

Noninterest income which is comprised principally of service charges on
deposit accounts increased $41,000 or 24.1% to $213,000 as of December 31,
1997 from $172,000 as of December 31, 1996.  Service charges on deposit
accounts increased from $114,000 as of December 31, 1996 to $125,000 as of 
December 31, 1997 driven by an increase in volume.  In addition, during the
second half of 1996, the Bank  began a new program to sell fixed rate mortgage 
loans which resulted in an increase on gains on the sale of loans of $30,000.

Noninterest expense decreased $114,000 or 7.0% to $1,509,000 as of 
December 31, 1997 from $1,624,000 as of December 31, 1996.  This decrease is
largely attributed to a one time charge of $470,000 in federal insurance
premiums in the first quarter of 1996.  On September 30, 1996, the President
signed into law legislation which included the  recapitalization of the
Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") of the  Federal Deposit  Insurance
Corporation by a one time charge to SAIF-insured  institutions of 65.7 basis
points per one hundred dollars of insurable deposits.  A reduced level of
insurance premiums is anticipated in future periods as a result of this one-
time charge.

Compensation and benefits increased $173,000 or 36.8%, due to the hiring of
new employees to further diversify the Bank's operations to meet continually
changing customer demands, as well as an increase of $75,000 attributable to
Employee Stock Ownership Plan.  Professional fees increased by $68,000 to
$115,000 as of December 31, 1997 compared to $47,000 for December 31, 1996 due
to an increase in services for compliance with regulatory requirements and
employee benefit plans.  Occupancy and equipment increased $55,000 from
$126,000 as of December 31, 1996 to $181,000 as of December 31, 1997 due
primarily to an increase in depreciation expense for equipment.  Other
noninterest expense increased by $87,000 due to the addition of franchise
taxes for the six months ended December 31, 1997 coupled with general overall
increases in all expenses.

A great deal of information has been disseminated about the global computer
crash that may occur in the year 2000.  Many computer programs that can only
distinguish the final two digits of the year entered ( common programming
practice in earlier years) are expected to read entries for the year 2000 as
the year 1900 and compute payment, interest, or delinquency based on the wrong
date or are expected to unable the compute payment, interest, or delinquency. 
Rapid and accurate data processing is essential to our operations.  Data
processing is also essential to most other financial institutions and many
other companies.

All of our material data processing that could be affected by this problem is
provided by a third party service bureau.  Our service bureaus has advised us
that it expects to resolve this potential problem before the year 2000. 
However, if this potential problem is not resolved before the year 2000, we
would likely experience significant data processing delays, mistakes, or
failures.  The delays, mistakes, or failures could have a significant adverse
impact on our financial condition and our results of operations.

Income tax expense increased $203,000 to $247,000 for the six months ended
December 31, 1997 compared to $44,000 for the same period ended
December 31, 1996 due to the higher level of pre-tax income.

COMPARISON OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
------------------------------------------------------------------
DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996
---------------------------

Net interest income increased $237,000 or 29.5%, over 1996.  This increase is
due to an increase in average interest earning assets over interest bearing
liabilities of $6,249,000 due to an increase in loan demand within the Bank's
market area.   Furthermore, the interest rate spread increased from 3.2% as of
December 31, 1996 to 3.6% as of December 31, 1997 which resulted primarily
from an increase in rates on loans coupled with a decline in rates on interest
bearing demand deposits.   

Interest expense increased slightly as a result of average interest bearing 
demand deposits increasing while being offset by a $1,695,000 decline in average
savings deposits and a 17 basis point in the cost of funds.  These fluctuations
were primarily due to the marketing of a new deposit product and the competitive
interest rate environment within the Bank's market area.

Provision for loan losses increased $16,000 to $30,694 for the three months
ended December 31, 1997 compared to $14,000 for the same period ended December
31, 1996.  This increase is derived from management's continual monitoring of
the quality of its loan portfolio and its determination of the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses.

Noninterest income increased $29,000 to $118,000 for the six months ended
December 31, 1997 from $89,000 for the same period ended December 31, 1997. 
This increase is primarily due to gains on sale of fixed rate mortgage loans
of $17,000 and an increase in volume of service charges on deposit accounts of
$11,000.  

Noninterest expense increased $233,000 or 41.3% to $797,000 for the six months
ended December 31, 1997 compared to $564,000 for the same period ended
December 31, 1996.  There were increases of $96,000 to compensation and
employee benefits $29,000 to professional fees and $94,000 to other
noninterest expense for those same reasons as discussed previously.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------

The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and prepayment
of loans, maturities of investment securities, and funds provided from
operations.  While scheduled loan repayments are a relatively predictable
source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by
general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.  In addition,
the Savings Bank invests excess funds in overnight deposits which provide
liquidity to meet lending requirements. 

The Bank has other sources of liquidity if a need for additional funds arises. 
Additional sources of funds include a flex line of credit and a RepoPlus line
of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Pittsburgh amounting to
$4.8 million and $10 million, respectively.  In addition, as of December 31,
1997, the Bank had outstanding advances from the FHLB of $9,730,000. 

As of December 31, 1997, the Company has commitments to fund loans of
approximately $2,152,000 as a direct result of the economic health of the
Bank's market area and the competitive pricing of the Bank's loan products.

Management monitors both the Company's and the Bank's total risk-based, Tier I
risk-based and Tier I leverage capital ratios in order to assess compliance
with regulatory guidelines.  At December 31, 1997, both the Company and the
Bank exceeded the minimum risk-based and leverage  capital ratios
requirements.  The Company's and Bank's total risk-based, Tier I risk-based
and Tier I leverage ratios are 23.6%, 23.2%, 15.5%, and 17.9%, 17.5%, and
11.7% respectively at December 31, 1997.

RISK ELEMENT
------------

The table below presents information concerning nonperforming assets including
nonaccrual loans, renegotiated loans, loans 90 days or more past due, other
real estate loans, and repossessed assets.  A loan is classified as nonaccrual
when, in the opinion of management, there are serious doubts about
collectibility of interest and principal.  At the time the accrual of interest
is discontinued, future income is recognized only when cash is received. 
Renegotiated loans are those loans which terms have been renegotiated to
provide a reduction or deferral of principal or interest as a result of the
deterioration of the borrower.

                                                      December 31,  June 30,

At December 31, 1997 and 1996, no real estate or other assets were held as
foreclosed or repossessed property.   

Management monitors impaired loans on a continual basis.  As of December 31,
1997, impaired loans had no material effect on the company's financial
position or results of operations.

During the six month period ended December 31, 1997, loans increased
$8,282,000 and nonperforming loans increased $580,000 while the allowance for
loan losses decreased $39,000 for the same period.  The percentage of
allowance for loan losses to loans outstanding declined slightly to .3% as of
December 31, 1997 compared to .4% as of December 31, 1996. Nonperforming loans
are primarily made up of one to four family residential mortgages.  The
collateral requirements on such loans reduce the risk of potential losses to
an acceptable level in management's opinion.

Management believes the level of the allowance for loan losses at December 31,
1997 is sufficient; however, there can be no assurance that the current
allowance for loan losses will be adequate to absorb all future loan
losses.  The relationship between the allowance for loan losses and
outstanding loans is a function of the credit quality and known risk
attributed to the loan portfolio.  The on-going loan review program and credit
approval process is used to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses.
