STATISTICAL INFORMATION
The statistical information required in this Part I Item I is incorporated by reference to the information appearing in the Corporations Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2007 in the sections captioned Selected Financial Data, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) and Financial Statements and related notes.
|
Financial Information About Segments |
The financial information concerning the Corporations business segments is incorporated by reference to the MD&A of the Corporations Annual Report to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2007 and Note 23 Segment Information to the financial statements accompanying such Annual Report.
COMPETITION
The Corporation and its subsidiaries, including the Bank, compete for deposits, loans and Wealth Management services in Delaware, Montgomery, Chester and Philadelphia Counties in southeastern Pennsylvania. The Corporation has a significant presence in the affluent Philadelphia suburbs known as the Main Line. The Corporation has eight full-service branches and seven Life Care Community offices.
The markets in which the Corporation competes are highly competitive. The Corporations direct competition in attracting deposits, loans and wealth management services come from commercial banks, investment management companies, savings and loan associations, and trust companies. The Corporation also competes with credit unions, on-line banking enterprises, consumer finance companies, mortgage companies, insurance companies, stock brokerage companies, investment advisory companies and other entities providing one or more of the services and products offered by the Corporation.
The Corporation is able to compete with the other firms because of its consistent level of customer service, excellent reputation, professional expertise, full product line, competitive rates and fees.
As mentioned in the MD&A, the earning asset growth exceeded the growth of lower cost NOW, savings and money market accounts, and non-interest bearing demand deposits. Accordingly, funding for asset growth came from higher cost retail certificates of deposit and other wholesale funding sources.
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
The Corporation and its subsidiaries, including the Bank, are subject to extensive regulation under both federal and state law. To the extent that the following information describes statutory provisions and regulations, which apply to the Corporation and its subsidiaries, it is qualified in its entirety by reference to those statutory provisions and regulations.
|
Bank Holding Company Regulation |
The Corporation, as a bank holding company, is regulated under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the Act). The Act limits the business of bank holding companies to banking, managing or controlling banks, performing certain servicing activities for subsidiaries and engaging in such other activities as the Federal Reserve Board may determine to be closely related to banking. The Corporation and its non-bank subsidiaries are subject to the supervision of the Federal Reserve Board and the Corporation is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board an annual report and such additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may require pursuant to the Act and the regulations which implement the Act. The Federal Reserve Board also conducts inspections of the Corporation and each of its non-banking subsidiaries.
The Act requires each bank holding company to obtain prior approval by the Federal Reserve Board before it may acquire (i) direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company, including another bank holding company or a bank, unless it already owns a majority of such voting shares, or (ii) all, or substantially all, of the assets of any company.
The Act also prohibits a bank holding company from engaging in, or from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company engaged in non-banking activities unless the Federal Reserve Board, by order or regulation, has found such activities to be so closely related to banking or to managing or controlling banks as to be appropriate. The Federal Reserve Board has by regulation determined that certain activities are so closely related to banking or to managing or controlling banks, so as to permit bank holding companies, such as the Corporation, and its subsidiaries formed for such purposes, to engage in such activities, subject to obtaining the Federal Reserve Boards approval in certain cases.
3
Under the Act, a bank holding company and its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension or provision of credit, lease or sale of property or furnishing any service to a customer on the condition that the customer provide additional credit or service to the bank, to its bank holding company or any other subsidiaries of its bank holding company or on the condition that the customer refrain from obtaining credit or service from a competitor of its bank holding company. Further, the Bank, as a subsidiary bank of a bank holding company, such as the Corporation, is subject to certain restrictions on any extensions of credit it provides to the Corporation or any of its non-bank subsidiaries, investments in the stock or securities thereof, and on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral for loans to any borrower.
In addition, the Federal Reserve Board may issue cease and desist orders against bank holding companies and non-bank subsidiaries to stop actions believed to present a serious threat to a subsidiary bank. The Federal Reserve Board also regulates certain debt obligations and changes in control of bank holding companies.
Under Federal Reserve Board policy, a bank holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to each of its subsidiary banks and to commit resources, including capital funds during periods of financial stress, to support each such bank. Consistent with its source of strength policy for subsidiary banks, the Federal Reserve Board has stated that, as a matter of prudent banking, a bank holding company generally should not maintain a rate of cash dividends unless its net income available to common shareholders has been sufficient to fund fully the dividends, and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears to be consistent with the companys capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.
Federal law also grants to federal banking agencies the power to issue cease and desist orders when a depository institution or a bank holding company or an officer or director thereof is engaged in or is about to engage in unsafe and unsound practices. The Federal Reserve Board may require a bank holding company, such as the Corporation, to discontinue certain of its activities or activities of its other subsidiaries, other than the Bank, or divest itself of such subsidiaries if such activities cause serious risk to the Bank and are inconsistent with the Bank Holding Company Act or other applicable federal banking laws.
|
Federal Reserve Board and Pennsylvania Department of Banking Regulations |
The Corporations Pennsylvania state chartered bank, The Bryn Mawr Trust Company, is regulated and supervised by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking (the Department of Banking) and subject to regulation by The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC. The Department of Banking and the Federal Reserve Board regularly examine the Banks reserves, loans, investments, management practices and other aspects of its operations and the Bank must furnish periodic reports to these agencies. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System.
The Banks operations are subject to certain requirements and restrictions under federal and state laws, including requirements to maintain reserves against deposits, limitations on the interest rates that may be paid on certain types of deposits, restrictions on the types and amounts of loans that may be granted and the interest that may be charged thereon, limitations on the types of investments that may be made and the types of services which may be offered. Various consumer laws and regulations also affect the operations of the Bank. These regulations and laws are intended primarily for the protection of the Banks depositors and customers rather than holders of the Corporations stock.
The regulations of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking restrict the amount of dividends that can be paid to the Corporation by the Bank. Payment of dividends is restricted to the amount of the Banks retained earnings which was $84.6 million as of December 31, 2007. However, the amount of dividends paid by the Bank cannot reduce capital levels below levels that would cause the Bank to be less than adequately capitalized. The payment of dividends by the Bank to the Corporation is the source on which the Corporation currently depends to pay dividends to its shareholders.
As a bank incorporated under and subject to Pennsylvania banking laws and insured by the FDIC, the Bank must obtain the prior approval of the Department of Banking and the Federal Reserve Board before establishing a new branch banking office. Depending on the type of bank or financial institution, a merger of banks located in Pennsylvania is subject to the prior approval of one or more of the following: the Department of Banking, the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. An approval of a merger by the appropriate bank regulatory agency would depend upon several factors, including whether the merged institution is a federally insured state bank, a member of the Federal Reserve System, or a national bank. Additionally, any new branch expansion or merger must comply with branching restrictions provided by state law. The Pennsylvania Banking Code permits Pennsylvania banks to establish branches anywhere in the state.

|
Deposit Insurance Assessment |
The deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC up to the limits set forth under applicable law and are subject to deposit insurance premium assessments. The FDIC imposes a risk based deposit premium assessment system, which was amended pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (the Act). Under this system, the amount of FDIC assessments paid by an individual insured depository institution, such as the Bank, is based on the level of risk incurred in its activities. The FDIC places a depository institution in one of four risk categories determined by reference to its capital levels and supervisory ratings. In addition, in the case of those institutions in the lowest risk category, the FDIC further determines its assessment rates based on certain specified financial ratios. Effective January 1, 2007, assessments can range from $0.05 per $100 of deposits in the lowest risk category to $0.43 per $100 of deposits for banks in the highest risk category. The assessment rate schedule can change from time to time, at the discretion of the FDIC, subject to certain limits. The Act provides for a one time premium assessment credit for eligible insured depository institutions. The Bank has been granted a one time credit of approximately $409,000 for use against future FDIC insurance premiums. The Bank used approximately $365 thousand of the credit against the 2007 premium assessments and has $45 thousand remaining to use towards 2008 assessments.
|
Government Monetary Policies |
The monetary and fiscal policies of the Federal Reserve Board and the other regulatory agencies have had, and will probably continue to have, an important impact on the operating results of the Bank through their power to implement national monetary policy in order to, among other things, curb inflation or combat a recession. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board may have a major effect upon the levels of the Banks loans, investments and deposits through the Federal Reserve Boards open market operations in United States government securities, through its regulation of, among other things, the discount rate on borrowing of depository institutions, and the reserve requirements against depository institution deposits. It is not possible to predict the nature and impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.
The earnings of the Bank and, therefore, of the Corporation are affected by domestic economic conditions, particularly those conditions in the trade area as well as the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies.
|
Safety and Soundness |
The Federal Reserve Board also has authority to prohibit a bank holding company from engaging in any activity or transaction deemed by the Federal Reserve Board to be an unsafe or unsound practice. The payment of dividends could, depending upon the financial condition of the Bank or Corporation, be such an unsafe or unsound practice and the regulatory agencies have indicated their view that it generally would be an unsafe and unsound practice to pay dividends except out of current operating earnings. The ability of the Bank to pay dividends in the future is presently and could be further influenced, among other things, by applicable capital guidelines discussed below or by bank regulatory and supervisory policies. The ability of the Bank to make funds available to the Corporation is also subject to restrictions imposed by federal law. The amount of other payments by the Bank to the Corporation is subject to review by regulatory authorities having appropriate authority over the Bank or Corporation and to certain legal limitations.
|
Risk Based Capital Guidelines |
The Federal Reserve Board has promulgated certain Risk Based Capital Guidelines. Under the guidelines, various types of Corporation assets are assigned risk categories and weighted based on their relative risk. In addition, certain off balance sheet items are translated into balance sheet equivalents and also weighted according to their potential risk. The sum of both of these asset categories, referred to as Total Risk Weighted Assets, is then compared to the Corporations total capital, providing a Tier I Capital Ratio, under the guidelines. A Tier II capital ratio is also computed for the Corporation, adding an allowable portion of the loan loss reserve to capital. Both the Tier I and Tier II ratios of the Corporation are in excess of those minimum capital ratios required. The focus of the guidelines is to measure the Corporations capital risk. The guidelines do not explicitly take into account other risks, such as interest rate changes or liquidity.
The Corporation adopted SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit, Pension and other Post Retirement Plans (FAS 158), in the fourth quarter of 2006. As a result of its adoption, the Corporation recorded additional pension liabilities of $6.5 million, deferred taxes of $2.3 million and a reduction of accumulative other comprehensive income (capital) of $4.2 million effective December 31, 2006. Federal Reserve Bank regulatory guidance states that the effects of the initial adoption and subsequent application of FAS 158 are excluded from regulatory capital calculations.
5
The Bank in its normal business originates off-balance sheet items, such as outstanding loan commitments and standby letters of credit. The Bank makes loan commitments to borrowers to assure the borrower of financing by the Bank for a specified period of time and/or at a specified interest rate. The obligation to the Bank, pursuant to an unfunded loan commitment, is limited by the terms of the commitment letter and other loan documentation issued by the Bank to each borrower. The Bank carefully reviews outstanding loan commitments on a periodic basis. A standby letter of credit is an instrument issued by the Bank, which represents a contingent obligation to make payments with respect to a specific transaction of a customer. The Bank carefully evaluates the creditworthiness of each of its letter of credit customers. The Corporation carefully monitors its risks as measured by the Risk Capital Guidelines and seeks to adhere to the Risk Capital Guidelines.
|
Gramm-Leach Bliley Act |
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB Act) repealed provisions of the Glass-Steagall Act, which prohibited commercial banks and securities firms from affiliating with each other and engaging in each others businesses. Thus, many of the barriers prohibiting affiliations between commercial banks and securities firms have been eliminated.
The GLB Act amended the Glass-Steagall Act to allow new financial holding companies (FHC) to offer banking, insurance, securities and other financial products to consumers. Specifically, the GLB Act amends section 4 of the Act in order to provide for a framework for the engagement in new financial activities. Bank holding companies may elect to become a financial holding company if all its subsidiary depository institutions are well-capitalized and well-managed. If these requirements are met, a bank holding company may file a certification to that effect with the Federal Reserve Board and declare that it elects to become a FHC. After the certification and declaration is filed, the FHC may engage either de novo or through an acquisition in any activity that has been determined by the Federal Reserve Board to be financial in nature or incidental to such financial activity. Bank holding companies may engage in financial activities without prior notice to the Federal Reserve Board if those activities qualify under the new list in section 4(k) of the Act. However, notice must be given to the Federal Reserve Board, within 30 days after the FHC has commenced one or more of the financial activities. The Corporation has not become an FHC.
Under the GLB Act, a bank subject to various requirements is permitted to engage through financial subsidiaries in certain financial activities permissible for affiliates of FHCs. However, to be able to engage in such activities a bank must continue to be well-capitalized and well-managed and receive at least a satisfactory rating in its most recent Community Reinvestment Act examination.
|
Community Reinvestment Act |
The Community Reinvestment Act requires banks to help serve the credit needs of their communities, including providing credit to low and moderate income individuals and areas. Should the Bank fail to serve adequately the communities it serves, potential penalties may include regulatory denials to expand branches, relocate, add subsidiaries and affiliates, expand into new financial activities and merge with or purchase other financial institutions.
|
Privacy of Consumer Financial Information |
The GLB Act also contains a provision designed to protect the privacy of each consumers financial information in a financial institution. Pursuant to the requirements of the GLB Act, the financial institution regulators have promulgated final regulations intended to better protect the privacy of a consumers financial information maintained in financial institutions. The regulations are designed to prevent financial institutions, such as the Bank, from disclosing a consumers nonpublic personal information to third parties that are not affiliated with the financial institution.
However, financial institutions can share a customers personal information or information about business and corporations with their affiliated companies. The regulations also provide that financial institutions can disclose nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties for marketing purposes but the financial institution must provide a description of its privacy policies to the consumers and give the consumers an opportunity to opt-out of such disclosure and, thus, prevent disclosure by the financial institution of the consumers nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties.
These privacy regulations will affect how consumers information is transmitted through diversified financial companies and conveyed to outside vendors. The Bank does not believe the privacy regulations will have a material adverse impact on its operations in the near term.

|
Consumer Protection Rules Sale of Insurance Products |
In addition, as mandated by the GLB Act, the regulators have published consumer protection rules which apply to the retail sales practices, solicitation, advertising or offers of insurance products, including annuities, by depository institutions such as banks and their subsidiaries.
The rules provide that before the sale of insurance or annuity products can be completed, disclosures must be made that state (i) such insurance products are not deposits or other obligations of or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other agency of the United States, the Bank or its affiliates; and (ii) in the case of an insurance product that involves an investment risk, including an annuity, that there is an investment risk involved with the product, including a possible loss of value.
The rules also provide that the Bank may not condition an extension of credit on the consumers purchase of an insurance product or annuity from the Bank or its affiliates or on the consumers agreement not to obtain or a prohibition on the consumer obtaining an insurance product or annuity from an unaffiliated entity.
The rules also require formal acknowledgement from the consumer that such disclosures have been received. In addition, to the extent practical, the Bank must keep insurance and annuity sales activities physically separate from the areas where retail banking transactions are routinely accepted from the general public.
|
Sarbanes-Oxley Act |
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) addresses, among other matters, increased disclosures; audit committees; certification of financial statements by the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer; forfeiture of bonuses and profits made by directors and senior officers in the twelve (12) month period covered by restated financial statements; a prohibition on insider trading during pension blackout periods; disclosure of off-balance sheet transactions; a prohibition applicable to companies, other than federally insured financial institutions, on personal loans to their directors and officers; expedited filing of reports concerning stock transactions by a companys directors and executive officers; the formation of a public accounting oversight board; auditor independence; and increased criminal penalties for violation of certain securities laws.
KPMG LLP (KPMG), the Corporations Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, has issued an attestation report that managements assessment that the Corporation maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Also in their opinion, KPMG stated that the Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the COSO framework.
The rules and regulations which implement the Sarbanes-Oxley Act had a significant economic impact on the compliance cost of the Corporation. It is not possible to assess the future impact on the Corporation or the Bank of any of the foregoing regulations and proposed regulations.

Patriot Act of 2001 |
The Patriot Act of 2001, which was enacted in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks, includes provisions designed to combat international money laundering and advance the U.S. governments war against terrorism. The Patriot Act and the regulations which implement it contain many obligations which must be satisfied by financial institutions, including the Bank. Those regulations impose obligations on financial institutions, such as the Bank, to maintain appropriate policies, procedures and controls to detect, prevent and report money laundering and terrorist financing and to verify the identity of their customers. The failure of a financial institution to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could have serious legal and reputational consequences for the financial institution.

Government Policies and Future Legislation |
As the enactment of the GLB Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act confirm, from time to time various laws are passed in the United States Congress as well as the Pennsylvania legislature and by various bank regulatory authorities which would alter the powers of, and place restrictions on, different types of banks and financial organizations. It is impossible to predict whether any potential legislation or regulations will be adopted and the impact, if any, of such adoption on the business of the Corporation or its subsidiaries, especially the Bank.

ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
Investment in the Corporations common shares involves risk. The market price of the Corporations common shares may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors including those that follow. The following list contains certain risks that may be unique to the Corporation and to the banking industry. The following list of risks should not be viewed as an all inclusive list or in any particular order.
|
Future loan and lease losses may exceed the Corporations allowance for loan and lease losses |
The Corporation is subject to credit risk, which is the risk of losing principal or interest due to borrowers failure to repay loans in accordance with their terms. A downturn in the economy or the real estate market in the Corporations market area or a rapid change in interest rates could have a negative effect on collateral values and borrowers ability to repay. This deterioration in economic conditions could result in losses to the Corporation in excess of loan and lease loss allowances. To the extent loans are not paid timely by borrowers, the loans and leases are placed on non-accrual, thereby reducing interest income. To the extent loan and lease charge-offs exceed the Corporations projections, increased amounts allocated to the provision for loan losses would reduce income.
|
Rapidly changing interest rate environment could reduce the Corporations net interest margin, net interest income, fee income and net income |
Interest and fees on loans and securities, net of interest paid on deposits and borrowings, are a large part of the Corporations net income. Interest rates are key drivers of the Corporations net interest margin and subject to many factors beyond the control of Management. As interest rates change, net interest income is affected. Rapidly changing interest rates in the future could result in interest expense increasing faster than interest income because of mismatches in financial instrument maturities and/or competitive pressures. Further, substantially higher interest rates generally reduce loan demand and may result in slower loan growth particularly in real estate related loans, which have been a significant portion of the Corporations revenue growth over the past two years. Decreases or increases in interest rates could have a negative effect on the spreads between the interest rates earned on assets and the rates of interest paid on liabilities, and therefore decrease net interest income. Also, changes in interest rates might also impact the values of equity and debt securities under management and administration by the Wealth Management Division which may have a negative impact on fee income. See the section captioned Net Interest Income in the MD&A of the Corporations Annual Report to Shareholders for additional details regarding interest rate risk.
|
A General Economic Slowdown Could Impact Wealth Management Division Revenues |
A general economic slowdown might decrease the value of Wealth Management Division assets under management and administration resulting in lower fee income. Such an economic downturn might also result in Wealth Management Division clients seeking alternative investment opportunities with other providers, resulting in lower fee income to the Corporation.
|
Slower than anticipated growth in new branches and from lower than expected new business could result in reduced net income |
The Corporation has opened three new branches since 2003. Risks associated with this include slower than anticipated growth in new branch locations and lower than expected loan, deposit and other income from these new branches. New branches require a significant investment of both financial and personnel resources. Lower than expected loan, deposit and other revenue growth in new branches could result in additional expenses, lower revenue and might divert resources from current core operations, ultimately reducing net income .
|
The financial services industry is very competitive |
The Corporation faces competition in attracting and retaining deposits, making loans, and providing other financial services such as trust and investment management services throughout the Corporations market area. The Corporations competitors include other community banks, larger banking institutions, trust companies and a wide range of other financial institutions such as credit unions, government-sponsored enterprises, on-line banking enterprises, mutual fund companies, insurance companies and other non-bank businesses. Many of these competitors have substantially greater resources than the Corporation. This is especially evident in regards to advertising and public relations spending. For a more complete discussion of our competitive environment, see BusinessCompetition in Item 1 above. If the Corporation is unable to compete effectively, the Corporation will lose market share and income from deposits, loans, and other products may be reduced.
8
|
Decreased residential mortgage origination, volume and pricing decisions of competitors |
The Corporation originates, sells and services residential mortgage loans. Changes in interest rates and pricing decisions by our loan competitors affect demand for the Corporations residential mortgage loan products, the revenue realized on the sale of loans and revenues received from servicing such loans for others, ultimately reducing the Corporations net income. A new regulation may be introduced to the residential mortgage origination market due to issues resulting from the 2007 sub-prime mortgage crisis. This new regulation may increase costs and make it more difficult to operate a residential mortgage origination business.
|
New leasing business may result in additional risks not previously experienced by the Corporation |
The Corporations new leasing business which began operations in September 2006 consists of leasing various types of equipment to businesses in amounts ranging from $10 thousand to $150 thousand throughout the United States. In addition to anticipated credit losses higher than our traditional lending business, the Corporation will be operating in a geographic area well beyond our Philadelphia market area. Additional risks may include additional state regulatory burdens including multi-state tax issues such as state income taxes, personal property taxes and sales and use taxes.
|
Lack of growth in other deposits and increased reliance on wholesale funding may impact earning asset growth |
Other deposits are defined as total deposits less wholesale deposits. Historically other deposits have experienced modest growth each year as evidenced by the compound annual growth rate of 13.9% over the ten year period ending December 31, 2005. Since that time, other deposit growth has been very slow due to a number of factors which include intense competition as discussed earlier in this report under the heading Competition, a more educated consumer, an abundance of information from the Internet, more electronic banking options, wider acceptance of debt and credit transactions, and reduced customer loyalty. If growth of other deposits remains slow, the Corporation intends to fund earning asset growth with higher cost wholesale sources. However, after it evaluates the capacity and cost of continuing to fund asset growth with wholesale sources, the Corporation may decide to reduce or eliminate future asset growth. Such a decision could impact profitability.
|
Additional risk factors also include the following all of which may reduce revenues and / or increase expenses and/or pull Managements attention away from core banking operations which may ultimately reduce the Corporations net income |
|
Inability to hire or retain key professionals, management and staff |
|
Changes in securities analysts estimates of financial performance |
|
Volatility of stock market prices and volumes |
|
Rumors or erroneous information |
|
Changes in market values of similar companies |
|
New developments in the banking industry |
|
Variations in quarterly or annual operating results |
|
New litigation or changes in existing litigation |
|
Regulatory actions |
|
Changes in accounting policies or procedures as may be required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other regulatory agencies |
ITEM 1B. | UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS |
None.
ITEM 2. | PROPERTIES |
The Corporation maintains its headquarters and largest branch location in a three-story, stone-front office building consisting of 37,000 net useable square feet located at the corner of Lancaster and Bryn Mawr Avenues in Bryn Mawr, PA. The building has been the Corporations headquarters since its founding in 1889. In 1988, additional space was added to the main office building to facilitate drive-in banking and expanded office space. The Corporation and its subsidiaries own these buildings.
9
In addition, as part of the Bryn Mawr (Main Office) office complex, the Corporation occupies three buildings across the street from the Main Office. These buildings house accounting, other administrative functions and the Corporations Wealth Division. The surplus space in these buildings is sublet to several tenants on short term leases. The Corporation leases two of these buildings and owns the third building.
The Corporations operations center and Wayne branch office are located in a three story building owned by the Corporation and located in Wayne, PA, approximately 6 miles from the Main Office complex.
Additionally, the Corporation and its subsidiaries own or lease eight branch office facilities and seven Life Care Community offices. The Corporation owns five of its branch locations and has long term ground leases on its most recently established branches. All of the life care community office locations are leased under various terms ranging from month to month up to five years.
The Corporation sold the Wynnewood, PA branch office in January 2007, which sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of $1.333 million.
Total monthly minimum cash lease payments for office, branch office (including ground leases) and life care community locations amounts to $64 thousand per month.

ARTICLE IV
GENERAL PROVISIONS
4.1 Participants Rights Unsecured . The right of any Participant or Beneficiary claiming through such Participant to receive payments under the provisions of the SERP shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Participating Employer by whom the Participant was last employed preceding the time the payments begin.

If a Participating Employer chooses to establish such a fund, or purchase such an annuity contract or make any other agreement to provide for such payments, that fund, contract or arrangement shall remain part of such Participating Employers general assets and no person claiming payments under the SERP shall have any right, title or interest in or to any such fund, contract or arrangement.
- 3 -
4.2 Claims Procedures .
4.2.1 A Participant or, in the event of the Participants death, the Participants Beneficiary, may file a written claim for payment hereunder with the Administrator. In the event of a denial of any payment due to or requested by the Participant or Beneficiary (the claimant), the Admnistrator will give the claimant written notification containing specific reasons for the denial. The written notification will contain specific reference to the pertinent provisions of this SERP on which the denial of the claim is based. In addition, it will contain a description of any other material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect a claim, and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary. The notification will provide further appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the claimant wishes to submit the claim for review. This written notification will be given to a claimant within ninety (90) days after receipt of the claim by the Administrator unless special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim.
4.2.2 In the event of a denial of a claim for benefits, the claimant or a duly authorized representative will be permitted to review pertinent documents and to submit issues and comments in writing to the Administrator. In addition, the claimant or a duly authorized representative may make a written request for a full and fair review of the claim and its denial by the Administrator; provided, however, that such written request is received by the Administrator (or its delegate) within sixty (60) days after receipt by the claimant of written notification of the denial. The sixty (60) day requirement may be waived by the Company in appropriate cases.
4.2.3 A decision on review of a claim for benefits will be rendered by the Administrator within sixty (60) days after the receipt of the request. Under special circumstances, an extension (up to an additional 60 days) can be granted for processing the decision. This extension must be provided in writing to the claimant prior to the expiration of the initial sixty day period. In no event will the decision be rendered more than one-hundred twenty (120) days after the initial request for review. Any decision by the Administrator will be furnished to the claimant in writing and will set forth the specific reasons for the decision and the specific provisions on which the decision is based.
4.3 Employment Rights . The establishment of the SERP shall not be construed as conferring any rights upon any Employee for a continuation of employment, nor shall it be construed as limiting in any way the right of a Participating Employer to discharge any Employee.
4.4 Assignability . Except for naming a Beneficiary under the Pension Plan to receive amounts that may become payable hereunder upon the Participants death, no right to receive payments hereunder shall be transferable or assignable by a Participant. Any other attempted assignment or alienation of payments hereunder shall be void and of no force or effect.
4.5 Administration . Except as otherwise provided herein, the SERP shall be administered by the Administrator, who shall have the authority to adopt rules and regulations for carrying out the SERP, and who shall interpret, construe and implement the provisions of the SERP.
- 4 -
4.6 Amendment and Termination . The SERP may at any time or from time to time be amended, modified, or terminated by the Board of Directors. Each Participating Employer shall have the right to terminate the SERP as to its Employees. No amendment, modification, or termination shall, without the consent of a Participant, adversely affect the Participants rights hereunder that accrued up to such amendment, modification or termination.
4.7 Controlling Law . The SERP shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania except as such laws are superseded by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.
4.8 Number and Gender . Words used in the masculine shall be read and construed in the feminine where applicable. Wherever required, the singular of any word shall include the plural, and the plural shall include the singular.

1. Acknowledgments . Employee acknowledges that during the course of his employment, he may receive, develop, otherwise acquire, have access to or become acquainted with trade secrets or other confidential information relating to the business of Employer and Affiliates.

2. Non-Disclosure . Except in connection with the performance of Employees duties in the course of his employment, Employee agrees that Employee will not, either directly or indirectly, for competitive or other purposes, disclose, cause to be disclosed, use or cause to be used, any Confidential Information of Employer or Affiliates or their clients, either during Employees employment or at any time thereafter. In the event of termination of employment, Employee shall immediately deliver to Employer, all keys, computers, data compilations and other written records or electronic compilations, or property of or relating to Employer, Affiliates or their business or clients.
3. Non-Interference . During the period of Employees employment and for a period of one (1) years following the termination of employment, whether voluntary or involuntary, for any reason whatsoever, Employee shall not induce any employee to leave the employ of Employer or Affiliates or induce any client or business referral source to sever its relationship with Employer or Affiliates.

DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS
Despite one of the most challenging banking environments in decades, Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation and our principal subsidiary, The Bryn Mawr Trust Company, had yet another excellent year in 2007. Our diluted earnings-per-share increased 8.2% over the previous year and our Return-on-Equity of 15.8% and Return-on-Assets of 1.59% put us among the top performing financial institutions in the nation.
Investing for the future, the Corporation undertook six major initiatives during the last part of 2006 and during 2007. These initiatives were all dilutive to earnings in 2007, but should all be accretive to earnings in 2008. Let me re-cap these enterprises and summarize their progress this past year.
Our new equipment leasing company, BMT Leasing, has been a resounding success. The company was profitable well ahead of schedule and, as of the date of this letter, lease balances are in excess of $50 million. We are looking for this unit to be a major contributor to earnings in 2008.
Our West Chester Loan Production Office was the result of hiring two highly-seasoned lenders from another bank. We are pleased with our results thus far and look forward to the opening of our regional banking office, to include a commercial loan department and trust office, in West Chester later this year.
The new Ardmore Branch opened up in January 2007 and has performed ahead of our most optimistic projections. Our strategy of building large, full-service, and well-located banking offices has worked well for the Corporation.
In May of 2007, we formed a separate Private Banking Group to handle our most affluent clients. This unit combines our deposit, credit, and wealth services and has been adding new clients much faster than anticipated.
During the entire past year, we spent a great deal of energy, time, and money re-tooling our Wealth Division. Matt Waschull was brought in from Wilmington Trust, where he was one of their top executives, to head up this Division. Our financial planning abilities were greatly enhanced through the addition of a very senior planner hired from Vanguard. In addition, we introduced a new Separately-Managed-Account investment product with a strategic partner, Federated Investors. Our goal for the Wealth Division is to grow our assets under management and administration in this business line to $5 billion, from the current $2.2 billion, within five years.
This past spring we hired five experienced mortgage professionals, who formed BMT Mortgage Group, to serve the Chester County and state of Delaware regions. This

2007 ANNUAL REPORT
Despite what most predict will be another tough year for the banking industry, Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation is poised for another successful year. We appreciate the encouragement and loyalty that you, as shareholders, have given us. I can assure you that both management and the directors are working hard to earn your support.
Ted Peters Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
complements our other two existing mortgage companies BMT Mortgage Company and BMT Mortgage Services which handle different markets.
While we are excited about these new enterprises, the Corporation is not standing still. We have three major initiatives planned for 2008.
As mentioned earlier, we will be building a large regional banking office in West Chester. This will solidify our presence in Chester County and will be the anchor of future expansion in that area. Our anticipated opening is in the fourth quarter of this year.
Our Separately-Managed-Account program will continue to evolve in 2008 with the addition of multiple investment styles. We will work with Federated Investors on this project, as well as other outside investment managers. A more robust investment selection should make this program even more attractive to potential clients.
We are applying for trust powers in the State of Delaware and anticipate opening an office in Wilmington later this summer. Delawares trust statutes allow the Bank to offer various trust servicessuch as directed trusts and generation skipping trusts which are not as attractive when offered in Pennsylvania.
Despite what most predict will be another tough year for the banking industry, Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation is poised for another successful year. We appreciate the encouragement and loyalty that you, as shareholders, have given us. I can assure you that both management and the directors are working hard to earn your support.
As always, please contact me directly at 610-581-4800 or tpeters@bmtc.com if I can help you in any way.

With our experienced management team, supported by a dedicated board of directors, we have created an environment where creativity is encouraged, performance is rewarded, and shareholders, clients and employees benefit.
INVESTING IN PRODUCTS, SERVICES AND FACILITIES
Extensive interior and exterior renovations were begun at our Wayne Branch in the fourth quarter and this project is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2008. When renovations are completed, this branch will be a more attractive and inviting environment for our clients. Benefits of this project include improved vehicle traffic flow, additional parking and an overall improvement in our ability to serve our clients more efficiently and effectively. We had hoped to open our new West Chester branch in 2007; however, we encountered some unexpected delays. We are moving forward with this facility and anticipate opening late in 2008. Expansion of our branch network is an important strategy and we believe our entry into the West Chester market will provide us access to a large group of potential customers who are in our target demographic market. Our Ardmore Branch, which opened in January 2007, is off to a great start with deposit balances growing well ahead of projections. We are very encouraged with these results and we have high expectations for this branchs continued growth.
To improve communications with our clients and prospects we have revised our brochures and other point-of-sale materials. The new collateral materials present information about our products and services in a fresh and easy to read format.
One of our goals is to provide customers with the highest quality products and services to meet their financial services needs. We delivered three new products to our customers in 2007 including a non-proprietary separately managed investment account (SMA), e-Z Banking, and e-Z Escrow.

The introduction of the SMA strategy marked the achievement of our objective to offer this investment option to our clients in 2007. We partnered with Federated Investors, Inc., a prominent investment management firm headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA to deliver this highly valued investment strategy to our wealth clients and prospects. The new SMA strategy was reviewed and approved by our Investment Policy Committee to ensure that clients receive the same quality and asset allocation philosophy inherent in our proprietary solutions. We plan to add other outside managers to our wealth management platform in 2008. To introduce the new SMA strategy, we held a seminar in September, 2007, which was well attended by clients, prospects and referral sources.
Two new business products were added to our product line with the introduction of e-Z Banking and e-Z Escrow. These automated services will allow our business customers to save time and money and operate more efficiently and effectively. Customers can scan and deposit checks into their Bryn Mawr Trust checking account, from their office, with e-Z Banking. It is a safe, secure and convenient way to make deposits, simplify record keeping and improve cash flow.
Any business that handles or administers escrow deposits will benefit from our e-Z Escrow product. We track all client escrow deposits and provide comprehensive monthly statements, eliminating the need for manually tracking and reporting escrow activity.
GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY
At Bryn Mawr Trust we believe it is important to be an active and contributing member of the communities we serve. We support our communities through volunteerism as well as through financial contributions and sponsorships. Last year we contributed generously to a wide variety of educational, cultural and civic organizations that make such a positive impact on the lives of so many members of our community. Through our participation in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvanias Educational Improvement Tax Credits Program we were able to support scholarship programs at 36 local schools and educational foundations.
WEALTH MANAGEMENT DIVISION CONTINUES TO BUILD MOMENTUM
Financial industry experts, customers and competitors recognize Bryn Mawr Trust as a premier wealth management firm in the Philadelphia area. Our professionals are sought out for their opinions, comments and advice on a variety of wealth management topics. We received a record number of requests from the media during 2007 and our professionals were seen on CNBC, CN8 Money Matters and Bloomberg TV, heard on KYW Radio 1060 and quoted in a variety of publications including: Bloomberg News , Private Asset Management , Smart Money , Associated Press , Investment News , USA Today , Main Line Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer .

Ellen Jordan, CFP (Certified Financial Planner) joined the Wealth Management Division in June, 2007. She has more than 20 years experience in the financial services industry and will work with our clients to prepare comprehensive financial plans.
We expect to expand our market into the state of Delaware with a limited purpose trust company (LPTC) during 2008. Our projected opening in Wilmington, subject to regulatory approval, is scheduled for this coming July. The LPTC will empower the organization to serve as a corporate fiduciary under Delaware statutes, which are more favorable for individuals and families. This initiative will open up a national market for our product offerings. Detailed planning for this initiative was started during 2007.
TWO NEW GROUPS FORMED
In early May we announced the formation of The Private Banking Group at Bryn Mawr Trust. Their mission is to ensure that all of the many resources throughout the Company are dedicated to the comprehensive financial stewardship of affluent individuals and families. Walter Smedley, III, CFP, ChFC, was appointed as the Managing Director of this new division. He is supported by a particularly skilled and knowledgeable team who average over 25 years of experience in all areas of financial services.
The BMT Mortgage Group was formed to augment the Corporations existing mortgage operations. This group of experienced mortgage industry professionals focuses their efforts on developing the Chester County, PA and state of Delaware mortgage markets.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Our excellent reputation is one of our most valuable assets. We have worked very hard to earn your trust, and several years ago adopted comprehensive corporate governance policies and practices. Our goal is to promote the highest standards and ethical conduct for our directors and employees in the management of Bryn Mawr Trust. Francis J. Leto, Lead Director of the Board, and Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, works closely with our executive management team to keep the corporation up-to-date on corporate governance and compliance issues.
One of our goals is to provide customers with the highest quality products and services to meet their financial services needs.

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
B RIEF H ISTORY OF THE C ORPORATION
The Bryn Mawr Trust Company (the Bank) received its Pennsylvania banking charter in 1889 and is a member of the Federal Reserve System. In 1986, Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation (the Corporation) was formed and on January 2, 1987, the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The Bank and Corporation are headquartered in Bryn Mawr, PA, a western suburb of Philadelphia, PA. The Corporation and its subsidiaries offer a full range of personal and business banking services, consumer and commercial loans, equipment leasing, mortgages, insurance and wealth management services, including investment management, trust and estate administration, retirement planning, custody services, and tax planning and preparation from eight full-service branches and seven limited-hour retirement community offices throughout Montgomery, Delaware and Chester counties. The Corporation trades on the NASDAQ Global Market (NASDAQ) under the symbol BMTC.
The goal of the Corporation is to become the preeminent community bank and wealth management organization in the Philadelphia area.
The Corporation operates in a highly competitive market area that includes local, national and regional banks as competitors along with savings banks, credit unions, insurance companies, trust companies, registered investment advisors and mutual fund families. The Corporation and its subsidiaries are regulated by many regulatory agencies including the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), NASDAQ, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Federal Reserve and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking.
R ESULTS OF O PERATIONS
The following is Managements discussion and analysis of the significant changes in the results of operations, capital resources and liquidity presented in its accompanying consolidated financial statements for the Corporation. The Corporations consolidated financial condition and results of operations consist almost entirely of the Banks financial condition and results of operations. Current performance does not guarantee, and may not be indicative of similar performance in the future.
C RITICAL A CCOUNTING P OLICIES , J UDGMENTS AND E STIMATES
The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation and its subsidiaries conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to the financial services industry (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles GAAP). All inter-company transactions are eliminated in consolidation and certain reclassifications are made when necessary to conform the previous years financial statements to the current years presentation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the balance sheets and revenues and expenditures for the periods presented. Therefore, actual results could differ from these estimates.
The allowance for loan and lease losses involves a higher degree of judgment and complexity than other significant accounting policies. The allowance for loan and lease losses is calculated with the objective of maintaining a reserve level believed by Management to be sufficient to absorb estimated probable credit losses. Managements determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the loan and lease portfolio and other relevant factors. However, this evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including, among others, expected default probabilities, expected loan commitment usage, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans and leases, value of collateral, estimated losses on consumer loans and residential mortgages and general amounts for historical loss experience. The process also considers economic conditions, international events, and inherent risks in the loan and lease portfolio. All of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. To the extent actual outcomes differ from Management estimates, additional provisions for loan and lease losses may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods. See the section of this document titled Asset Quality and Analysis of Credit Risk for additional information.
Other significant accounting policies are presented in Note 1 in the accompanying financial statements. The Corporations Summary of Significant Accounting Policies has not substantively changed any aspect of its overall approach in the application of the foregoing policies.
E XECUTIVE O VERVIEW
2007 Compared to 2006
The Corporation reported 2007 diluted earnings per share of $1.58, an increase of $0.12 per share or 8.2% compared to $1.46 per share in 2006. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $13.6 million, an increase of 7.0% or $884 thousand, compared to $12.7 million last year.
2
The primary factor contributing to the increase in earnings for the year was a $0.10 per share or $866 thousand after-tax gain on the sale of real estate that previously served as the Banks Wynnewood branch location. Excluding the real estate gain, year to date 2007 diluted earnings per share of $1.48 were up $.02 or 1.4% from the same period last year and net income of $12.7 million was flat compared to the prior period. Return on average equity (ROE) and return on average assets (ROA) for the year ended December 31, 2007 were 15.87% (14.86% excluding the real estate gain) and 1.59% (1.49% excluding the real estate gain), respectively. ROE was 15.71% and ROA was 1.72% for the same period last year.
Anticipating a one-time gain on the sale of real estate during the first quarter of 2007, the Corporation invested in many new business initiatives in the latter part of 2006 continuing through 2007. These initiatives included the formation of an equipment leasing company, the start-up of a loan production office in West Chester, the opening of a new branch in Ardmore, Pennsylvania, the roll-out of the Private Banking Group, the formation of BMT Mortgage Group to augment the Corporations existing mortgage operations, and the retooling of the Wealth Division through investments in additional personnel, product offerings and service enhancements.
During the third quarter of 2007, an experienced financial planner was hired to enhance the Wealth Divisions overall financial planning services and a new separately-managed investment account (SMA) product was launched. The Corporation is also developing plans to establish a limited purpose trust company (LPTC) in the State of Delaware in 2008, subject to regulatory approval, to serve as a corporate fiduciary under Delaware statutes, which are more favorable for individuals and families. These new initiatives contributed to the $3.5 million or 11.3% increase in non-interest expenses in 2007 compared to 2006.
The Corporation increased portfolio loans and leases in 2007 by 17.9% or $121.6 million compared with year-end 2006 balances by expanding banking relationships with local businesses, not-for-profit entities, quality builders and high credit quality individuals. Additional opportunities exist also in our residential lending unit with desirable borrowers as competitors have partially, and in some cases entirely, withdrawn from the market. This growth in loan and lease volume was able to offset several prime rate decreases and higher funding costs, to increase the Corporations tax equivalent net interest income by $921 thousand or 2.7% for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the same period last year.
Credit quality on the overall loan and lease portfolio remains strong as total non-performing loans and leases represent 25 basis points or $2.0 million of portfolio loans and leases at December 31, 2007. This compares with 12 basis points or $823 thousand at December 31, 2006.
The provision for loan and lease losses for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $891 thousand and $832 thousand, respectively. At December 31, 2007, the allowance for loan and lease losses (allowance) of $8.1 million represents 1.01% of portfolio loans and leases compared with 1.19% at December 31, 2006. For additional information, see the section titled Asset Quality and Analysis of Credit Risk in this document.
Funding from wholesale sources, which includes wholesale deposits and wholesale borrowings, at December 31, 2007 of approximately $174.8 million was $139.8 million higher than the $35.0 million at December 31, 2006. The increase in 2007 was primarily used to fund portfolio loan and lease growth of approximately $122.0 million. During 2007, deposits continued to shift from lower yielding savings and NOW accounts into higher yielding money market accounts, but at a much slower pace than the corporation experienced in 2006. The use of wholesale funding at average rates of 5.30% was the primary reason that the Corporations net interest margin declined from 4.90% in 2006 to 4.37% in 2007.
Deposit balances at December 31, 2007 and 2006 reflect approximately $70.0 million and $35.0 million, respectively, in demand deposit balances that represent short term in-flows from customer year-end activity. These short term deposit in-flows pushed the Corporations total assets over the $1.0 billion level at December 31, 2007.
For the year ended December 31, 2007, non-interest income excluding the $1.3 million (pre-tax) real estate gain on the Wynnewood property, was $20.4 million, an increase of $2.1 million or 11.4% over the $18.4 million in 2006. The primary factor for this increase was year-to-date Wealth Management revenue of $13.5 million which was $1.1 million or 8.7% higher than 2006.
Wealth Management revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 include $580 thousand and $403 thousand, respectively, of fees that will no longer be earned relating to one institutional client that was acquired by another financial institution in a business combination on November 16, 2007. Wealth assets under Management and Administration relating to this client were approximately $412.4 million at December 31, 2006 and zero at December 31, 2007.
For the year ended December 31, 2007, non-interest expense was $35.0 million, an increase of $3.5 million or 11.3% over the $31.4 million in the same period last year. Personnel and related support costs associated with the new business initiatives were the largest contributor to this increase in non-interest expenses.
3
2006 Compared to 2005
Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation reported net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 of $12.7 million, an increase of 12.0% or $1.4 million, compared to $11.4 million in 2005. Diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2006, were $1.46, an increase of $0.15 or 11.5%, compared with $1.31 in 2005. ROE and ROA for 2006 were 15.71% and 1.72%, respectively. ROE was 15.50% and ROA was 1.66% for 2005.
The major factor contributing to the increase in earnings for 2006 compared to 2005 was a $2.1 million or 6.6% increase in the Corporations tax equivalent net interest income to $33.7 million from $31.6 million in 2005. This increase was principally loan volume driven, despite a decrease in the tax equivalent net interest margin of 15 basis points to 4.90% in 2006 from 5.05% in 2005. Also contributing to the increase in earnings was a nominal decrease in overall non-interest expense of $150 thousand as total non-interest expenses were $31.4 million. Additionally, fees for Wealth Management services increased 7.7% or $883 thousand to $12.4 million in 2006 versus $11.5 million in 2005, partially offsetting declines in residential mortgage-related revenues.
Asset quality was strong as non-performing assets represented 0.10% of total assets at December 31, 2006. While the allowance increased to $8.1 million at December 31, 2006 from $7.4 million at December 31, 2005, the allowance as a percentage of portfolio loans decreased to 1.19% from 1.24% over the same time period. The decrease in the allowance as a percentage of portfolio loans is attributed to strong loan growth in the second and third quarters of 2006 and continued strength in asset quality. Net loan charge-offs were $112 thousand and $287 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Portfolio loans increased $86.1 million or 14.5% to $681.3 million at December 31, 2006 from $595.2 million at December 31, 2005, reflecting a significant increase in commercial mortgage and construction loan closings in 2006. Also contributing to the growth was the formation of BMT Leasing Inc., which added $7.0 million in balances in 2006. The Corporation opened its business loan production office in downtown West Chester, Pennsylvania in 2006 to help further this growth.
The Corporations interest bearing liabilities at December 31, 2006 include approximately $65.0 million in wholesale certificates and short-term borrowings, compared with $5.0 million at December 31, 2005. Deposit balances at December 31, 2006 and 2005 reflect approximately $35.0 million and $25.0 million, respectively, in demand deposit balances that represent short term in-flows from customer year-end activity. Total deposits, including the short term in-flows were $714.5 million and $636.2 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This represents a year over year increase in total deposits of $78.2 million or 12.3%.
During 2006, the Corporation observed a shift in the mix of its other deposits (total deposits less wholesale deposits) as some lower cost interest bearing checking, money market accounts and savings accounts moved into higher yielding certificates of deposit. This shift in the other deposit mix was a national trend as many financial institutions had similar experiences. The utilization of market rate wholesale funding, the shift in deposit mix and the increase in interest rates resulted in overall funding costs rising faster than the yield on interest earning assets.
NON-GAAP M EASURES
Non-GAAP Measures: A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a companys performance, financial position, or cash flows that either exclude or include amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we report certain key financial measurements without the impact of a material real estate transaction.
Our management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Corporations performance. These non-GAAP measures consist of adjusting net income, non-interest income, diluted earnings per share, ROE, and ROA determined in accordance with GAAP to exclude the effects of the real estate gain in the first quarter of 2007 (i.e. year to date).
Management believes that the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information essential to the proper understanding of the operating results of the Corporations core business. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and are not substitutes for, or superior to, GAAP results. The non-GAAP measures are provided to enhance investors overall understanding of our current financial performance. These non-GAAP measures have been reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the accompanying schedule.

C OMPONENTS OF N ET I NCOME
Net income is affected by five major elements: Net Interest Income , or the difference between interest income and loan fees earned on loans and investments and interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds; Provision For Loan and Lease Losses , or the amount added to the allowance for loan and lease losses to provide for estimated inherent losses on loans and leases; Non-Interest Income which is made up primarily of certain fees, wealth revenue, residential mortgage activities and gains and losses from the sale of securities and other assets; Non-Interest Expense , which consists primarily of salaries, employee benefits and other operating expenses; and Income Taxes . Each of these major elements will be reviewed in more detail in the following discussion.

Net Interest Income 2007 Compared to 2006
Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis for the year ended December 31, 2007 of $34.6 million was 2.7% higher than $33.7 million in 2006. This increase was substantially volume driven as average loan growth of $104.4 million or 16.4% offset was able to offset several prime rate decreases and the impact of funding with higher cost wholesale funds.
Average interest bearing liabilities increased by $107.0 million or 21.6% to $602.2 million during 2007 compared to $495.2 million during 2006. Wholesale deposits and short term borrowings were the primary factors contributing to the increase in average interest bearing liabilities. The change in average other deposit balances in 2007 was a nominal $1.3 million decrease.
Despite the increase in tax equivalent net interest income, the tax equivalent net interest margin on interest earning assets decreased by 53 basis points from 4.90% during 2006 to 4.37% during 2007.
Net Interest Income 2006 Compared to 2005
Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis amounted to $33.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $2.1 million or 6.6% from the $31.6 million of net interest income earned in 2005. Approximately 82% of the increase in tax equivalent net interest income in 2006 was volume related. During 2006, short term interest rates increased early in the year but stabilized in June 2006. Since the Corporation was asset sensitive, it benefited from rising short term interest rates early in 2006, partially offset by the increasing cost of funding as the deposit market environment became increasingly challenging. To satisfy loan demand, the Corporation utilized more costly time and wholesale deposits together with outside borrowings to a greater extent previously.
Average interest earning assets increased $60.9 million or 9.7% to $686.4 million during 2006 compared to $625.5 million during 2005. The largest portion of this
6
increase in average interest earning assets was attributable to loan growth as average loans increased by $53.9 million or 9.3% to $636.3 million during 2006 compared to 2005. Time deposits, wholesale deposits and short term borrowings were the largest factors contributing to the increase in average interest bearing liabilities.
The tax equivalent net interest margin on interest earning assets decreased 15 basis points from 5.05% during 2005 to 4.90% during 2006.
Net Interest Margin
The Corporations tax equivalent net interest margin decreased 54 basis points to 4.11% in the fourth quarter of 2007 from 4.65% in the same period last year. The tax equivalent net interest margin and related components for the past five linked quarters are shown in the table below.
The Corporation anticipates continued pressure on its tax equivalent net interest margin in 2008 as primary funding for incremental loan and lease growth is expected to come from higher cost wholesale funding as growth in other deposit balances is not expected to be significant. The Corporations tax equivalent net interest margin was 4.37% in 2007 compared with 4.90% in 2006 and 5.05% in 2005. These results reflect the increased cost of interest bearing liabilities more than offsetting the increased yield on earning assets. However, approximately $140.0 million of the $175.0 million in wholesale funding at December 31, 2007 will mature or re-price in 2008, which will give the Corporation an opportunity to lower funding costs based on current rates.

Interest Rate Sensitivity
The Corporation actively manages its interest rate sensitivity position. The objectives of interest rate risk management are to control exposure of net interest income to risks associated with interest rate movements and to achieve sustainable growth in net interest income. Managements Asset Liability Committee (ALCO), using policies and procedures approved by the Corporations Board of Directors, is responsible for managing the interest rate sensitivity position. The Corporation manages interest rate sensitivity by changing the mix, pricing and re-pricing characteristics of its assets and liabilities, through the management of its investment portfolio, its offering of loan and selected deposit terms and through wholesale funding and selective use of interest rate floors. Wholesale funding consists of several sources including borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLB), certificates of deposit from institutional brokers, Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) and Pennsylvania Local Government Investment Trust (PLGIT). The Corporation is also evaluating additional wholesale funding sources. The ALCO continues to evaluate various strategies including interest rate swaps and floors to mitigate the impact of future changes in interest rates on its net interest income.
The Corporation uses several tools to manage its interest rate risk including interest rate sensitivity analysis (aka GAP Analysis), market value of portfolio equity analysis, interest rate simulations under various rate scenarios and tax equivalent net interest margin reports. The results of these reports are compared to limits established by the Corporations ALCO Policies and appropriate adjustments are made if the results are outside of established limits.
The following table demonstrates the annualized result of an interest rate simulation and the estimated effect that a parallel interest rate shift in the yield curve and subjective adjustments in deposit pricing might have on the Corporations projected net interest income over the next 12 months.
This simulation assumes that there is no growth in the balance sheet over the next twelve
months. The changes to net interest income shown below are in compliance with the Corporations policy guidelines. Actual results may differ significantly from the interest rate simulation due to numerous factors including assumptions, the

The interest rate simulation above indicates that the Corporations balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 is slightly asset sensitive, meaning that an increase in interest rates should increase net interest income and a decline in interest rates will cause a decline in net interest income over the next 12 months when compared to projected net income under a flat or stable rate scenario.
7
The Corporations sensitivity to changes in interest rates as measured by the Corporations interest rate simulation model decreased from last year (3.41% increase for +200 basis points and 3.60% decrease for -200 basis points). The decrease is a result of direction from its ALCO to add fixed rate commercial loans, residential mortgages and mortgage-backed securities to the asset mix, combined with increased customer preference for fixed rate financing.
Separately, the Corporation purchased a $25.0 million notional, prime rate based, three-year interest rate floor in April 2006 for a total cost of $155 thousand to mitigate the impact on earnings of anticipated declining rates over the next three years. The income related to the interest rate floor of $155 thousand in 2007 and a net expense of $29 thousand in 2006 were included as components of other income and other expense. This position was closed out in January 2008 as rates declined and the value of the contract increased. The Corporation recorded non-interest income of approximately $260 thousand on the close out of this contract in January 2008.
GAP Report
The interest sensitivity or GAP report identifies interest rate risk by showing repricing gaps in the banks balance sheet. All assets and liabilities are reflected based on behavioral sensitivity, which is usually the earliest of either: repricing, maturity, contractual amortization, prepayments or likely call dates. Non-maturity deposits such as NOW, Savings and money market accounts are spread over various time periods based on the expected sensitivity of these rates considering liquidity and investment preferences for the bank. Non-rate sensitive assets and liabilities are spread over time periods to reflect how the Corporation views the maturity of these funds.

P ROVISION FOR L OAN AND L EASE L OSSES
General Discussion of the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The Corporation uses the allowance method of accounting for credit losses. The balance in the allowance for loan and lease losses (allowance) is determined based on Managements review and evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio in relation to past loss experience, the size and composition of the portfolio, current economic events and conditions, and other pertinent factors, including Managements assumptions as to future delinquencies, recoveries and losses.
Increases to the allowance are implemented through a corresponding provision (expense) in the Corporations statement of income. Loans and leases deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance. Recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to the allowance.
While Management considers the allowance to be adequate based on information currently available, future additions to the allowance may be necessary due to changes in economic conditions or Managements assumptions as to future delinquencies, recoveries and losses and Managements intent with regard to the disposition of loans. In addition, the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Corporations allowance.
The Corporations allowance is the accumulation of four components that are calculated based on various independent methodologies. All components of the allowance are estimations. Management discusses these estimates earlier in this document under the heading of Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates. The four components are as follows:
|
Specific Loan Evaluation Component Includes the specific evaluation of larger classified loans |
|
Historical Charge-Off Component Applies a five year historical charge-off rate to pools of non-classified loans |
|
Additional Factors Component The loan portfolio is broken down into multiple homogenous subclassifications upon which multiple factors (such as delinquency trends, economic conditions, loan terms, and regulatory environment) are evaluated resulting in an allowance amount for each of the subclassifications. The sum of these amounts equals the Additional Factors Component. |
|
Unallocated Component This amount represents a reserve against all loans for factors not included in the components above. |
Asset Quality and Analysis of Credit Risk
Credit quality on the overall loan and lease portfolio remains strong as total non-performing loans and leases of $2.0 million represents 25 basis points of portfolio loans and leases at December 31, 2007. This compares with 12 basis points or $823 thousand at December 31, 2006 and 11 basis points and $415 thousand at December 31, 2005. December 31, 2007 non-performing loan balances include an accruing $1.3 million loan, which is well secured by a local residential property, is now on a current status.
The provision for loan and lease losses for the year ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 were $891 thousand, $832 thousand and $762 thousand, respectively. At December 31, 2007, the allowance for loan and lease losses of $8.1 million represents 1.01% of portfolio loans and leases compared with 1.19% at December 31, 2006 and 1.24% at December 31, 2005. The decline in the allowance as a percentage of portfolio loans and leases from the end of 2005 to the end of 2007 reflects the Corporations low charge-off history over the two year time period and the continued economic strength of the Corporations Delaware Valley, Pennsylvania market area.
Additionally, the allowance for loan and lease losses in 2007 was affected by continued loan growth, the maturing of the lease portfolio and related charge-offs, continuing changes to the mix of assets, and periodic refinements along with changes to estimates of loss in certain asset classes. In the aggregate, these changes resulted in a more volatile quarterly provision for loan and lease losses in 2007. Specifically, the changes in loss estimates for residential mortgages and home equity lines of credit, resulted in a lower provision for loan and lease losses in 2007 than would have resulted under the previous loss estimates of approximately $1.2 million. Correspondingly, the allowance for loan and lease losses at December 31, 2007 is approximately $1.2 million lower than it would have been under the previous loss estimates. The Corporation believes that its revised estimates better reflect the loss inherent in the loan and lease portfolio.
|
Portfolio Loans and Leases excluding Leases The Corporations $757.8 million loan portfolio (total portfolio loans and leases excluding leases) is based in the Corporations traditional market areas of Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties (Pennsylvania) and the greater Philadelphia area which have not experienced the hyper real estate price appreciation and subsequent decline that many areas around the country are experiencing. The Corporation has observed a slow-down in new construction in the local area and some home value reductions, but has not seen any impact on the Corporations loan quality ratios relative to the loan portfolio. |

|
Concentrations The Corporation has a material portion of its loans (excluding leases) in real estate related loans. As of December 31, 2007, loans secured by real estate are $638.0 million or 84% of the total loan portfolio of $757.8 million, which includes $530.0 of real estate loans. Loans secured by real estate include approximately $108.0 million of commercial and industrial loans. |
A predominant percentage of the Corporations real estate exposure, both commercial and residential, is in the Corporations primary trade area which includes portions of Delaware, Chester, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Management is aware of this concentration and mitigates this risk to the extent possible in many ways, including the underwriting and assessment of the borrowers capacity to repay and equity in the underlying real estate collateral.
|
Construction Residential site development construction loans declined from $46.5 million at December 31, 2006 to $45.4 million at December 31, 2007. Commercial construction projects were $15.1 million at December 31, 2006 and were reduced to $11.0 million at December 31, 2007. Consumer construction loans at December 31, 2006 were $13.3 million and $10.5 million at December 31, 2007. This decrease is attributable to the completion of existing construction projects and a lower level of new projects by the Corporations construction clients. |
|
Non Traditional Loan Products The Corporations portfolio of loans and leases as reflected on the balance sheet include $56.8 million of first lien mortgage positions on one to four family residential loans that are interest only loans. |
At December 31, 2007 the total first lien interest only residential loans of $56.8 million included $47.6 million of adjustable rate loans that convert to principal and interest payments between five and ten years after inception and $9.2 million of fixed rate loans that continue as interest only loans until reaching maturity. At December 31, 2007 the balance sheet also includes $7.4 million one to four family residential loans secured by junior lien positions that are interest only loans. These fixed rate loans will remain as interest only loans until maturity.
|
Leasing The Corporations $45.1 million leasing portfolio is national in scope and consists of over 2,500 equipment financing leases to customers in all 50 states with initial lease terms of 24 to 60 months and yields significantly higher than other loans in the Corporations loan and lease portfolio. Approximately 70% of the Corporations leases are in 12 states with California being the largest at approximately 15%. |
The Corporation has established an allocation of the overall reserve for leases as shown in the table on page 13 of $789 thousand which equates to 1.75% of lease balances. Additionally, the Corporation charges-off leases that are 120 days past due. Net lease charge-offs in 2007 of $535 thousand (or 1.96% of average leases) reflect the maturation of the lease portfolio and the inherent riskier nature of the leasing business compared to the Corporations other loans. The Corporation anticipates charge-offs in the leasing portfolio to average between 1.25% to 1.75% of average lease balances in 2008.

2007 Compared to 2006
For the year ended December 31, 2007, non-interest income excluding the $1.3 million (pre-tax)real estate gain on the Wynnewood property, was $20.4 million, an increase of $2.1 million or 11.4% over the $18.4 million in 2006. The primary factor for this increase was year-to-date Wealth Management revenue of $13.5 million which was $1.1 million or 8.7% higher than 2006. The increase in Wealth Management fee revenue is partially due to market appreciation, increased brokerage fee revenue, a fall 2007 minimum fee increase and increased assets and related revenue from an institutional client. The balance of the increase in non-interest income was due primarily to income from bank owned life insurance (BOLI) acquired in May 2007, stronger mortgage loan sale revenue and a gain on the sale of other real estate owned.
Wealth Management revenues for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 include $580 thousand, $403 thousand and $221 thousand, respectively, of fees that will no longer be earned relating to one institutional client that was acquired by another financial institution in a business combination on November 16, 2007. Wealth assets under Management and Administration relating to this client at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006 were approximately $296.2 million and $412.4 million, respectively, and zero at December 31, 2007.
2006 Compared to 2005
Non-interest income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 increased $56 thousand or 0.3% to $18.4 million when compared to 2005. Wealth Management services fee income increased $883 thousand or 7.7% to $12.4 million in 2006 from $11.5 million in 2005, while other non-interest income categories in the aggregate declined $827 thousand over the same time period, primarily due to lower residential mortgage related revenue.
Wealth Management revenue increased in 2006 when compared to 2005 due to strong results from the investment management, retirement services and estate administration components, along with increased assets and related revenue from an institutional client. Increased investment management fees are the result of conversion of certain lower fee custody accounts to higher fee investment management accounts.

2007 Compared to 2006
For the year ended December 31, 2007, non-interest expense was $35.0 million, an increase of $3.5 million or 11.3% over the $31.4 million in the same period in 2006. Personnel and related support costs associated with the new business initiatives, advertising costs, and professional and consulting fees were the primary contributors to this increase in non-interest expenses. Non-interest expenses in 2007 include approximately $350 thousand in personnel, professional and other costs that are not ongoing commitments.
2006 Compared to 2005
Non-interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 decreased $150 thousand to $31.4 million when compared to 2005. This decrease is primarily due to reductions in incentive compensation, mortgage servicing right amortization and professional fees, partially offset by increased occupancy costs, employee benefit costs, leasing company startup costs and loan production office staffing additions.
I NCOME T AXES
Income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2007 were $6.6 million compared to $6.7 million in 2006 and $5.9 million in 2005. The effective tax rate was 32.58% in 2007, 34.47% in 2006 and 34.31% in 2005. The decrease in the effective tax rate in 2007 was due to an increase in tax free income and other smaller items. The tax rates for 2006 and 2005 were relatively unchanged.
B ALANCE S HEET A NALYSIS
Asset Changes
Total assets increased $175.3 million or 21.2% from $826.8 million as of December 31, 2006 to $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2007. The growth in total portfolio loans and leases of $121.6 million and an increase of $33.2 in cash and cash equivalents are the major factors for the increase.
The increase in loan volume during 2007 was concentrated in commercial and industrial loans which increased $38.6 million or 22%, and commercial mortgages which increased $26.1 million or 13.2%, as loan demand remained strong. Leases increased $38.1 million from $7.0 million at December 31, 2006 to $45.1 million December 31, 2007 as 2007 was the first full year of operations for the BMT Leasing.
The growth of $33.2 million in cash and cash equivalents is due to a $35.0 million increase in short term inflows of customer deposits at year end 2007 compared with year end 2006. Total cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2007 was $95.2 million or 53.5% higher than the $62.0 million at December 31, 2006.
Liability Changes
Total liabilities increased $167.0 million or 22.4% from $714.5 million as of December 31, 2006 to $911.8 million as of December 31, 2007. The increase in liabilities is primarily due to a $139.8 million increase in wholesale funding and year end customer deposit activity. Funding from wholesale
12
sources at December 31, 2007 included approximately $129.8 million in wholesale certificates of deposit and $45.0 million in Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings ($174.8 million in total). This compares with approximately $20.0 million and $15.0 million in wholesale certificates and FHLB borrowings, respectively, at December 31, 2006 ($35.0 million in total). The increase in total wholesale funding of $139.8 million in 2007 was primarily used to fund portfolio loan and lease growth of approximately $122.0 million. Average other deposits (total deposits less wholesale certificates of deposit) for 2007 increased 0.1% or $800 thousand to $616.1 million compared with $615.4 million for 2006 due to the difficult deposit gathering environment. The Corporation has unused FHLB borrowing capacity of $263.0 million at December 31, 2007.
Deposit balances at December 31, 2007 and 2006 reflect approximately $70.0 million and $35.0 million, respectively, in demand deposit balances that represent short term in-flows from customer year-end activity. These short term deposit in-flows temporarily pushed the Corporations total assets over the $1.0 billion level at December 31, 2007.
During 2007, deposits continued to shift from lower yielding savings and NOW accounts into higher yielding money market accounts, but at a much slower pace than the Corporation experienced in 2006.
Other deposits defined as total deposits less wholesale deposits have historically experienced modest
growth each year as evidenced by the compound annual growth rate of 13.9% over the ten year period ending December 31, 2005. Since that time, other deposit growth has been very slow due to a number of factors which include the intense
competition, a more educated consumer, an abundance of information from the Internet, more electronic banking options, wider acceptance of debt and credit transactions, and reduced customer loyalty. If growth of other deposits remains slow, the
Corporation intends to fund earning asset growth with higher cost wholesale sources. However, after it evaluates the capacity and cost of continuing to fund asset growth with wholesale sources, the Corporation may decide to reduce or eliminate

The Mortgage Banking Segment pre-tax segment profit (PTSP) of $555 thousand in 2007 was 30.0% or $233 thousand lower than 2006. This decrease is due to $473 thousand or 30% increase in costs, partially offset by $242 thousand or 10.8% increase in revenues. The increase in costs is due to the July 2007 addition of mortgage origination capacity in the form of the BMT Mortgage Group, which consisted of five mortgage professionals.
Mortgage originations in 2007 of $127.6 million were flat with last year and down 34.0% from 2005. However, the value of mortgages sold (servicing retained and servicing released) in 2007 of $88.8 million was 31.2% higher than those sold in 2006. Accordingly, the gain on sale of loans in 2007 of $1.3 million was 31.0 % higher than the gain on sale of loans in 2006 (as the gain per loan sold of 141 basis points was unchanged from 2006). Origination activity and total mortgages sold in 2005 were significantly higher than 2006 and 2007, as 2005 was the last year of the refinance boom that ran from 2002 through 2005.
Management expects mortgage originations in 2008 to be higher than 2007 due to the reduction in interest rates in January and February 2008, the opportunity for consumers to lock in lower fixed rate mortgages, and the additional capacity of BMT Mortgage Group.
Loans serviced for others have declined during the
past few years from $417.6 million to $382.1 million to 357.4 million at the end of 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. This decline is primarily the result of mortgage repayments exceeding mortgage loans sold servicing retained.

The Wealth Management Segment reported a 2007 PTSP of $6.7 million, an 11.4% or a $683 thousand increase over 2006. The increase in PTSP is primarily due to a $1.1 million or 8.7% increase in Wealth Management revenue, partially offset by a $397 thousand or 6.0% increase in expenses, primarily personnel related. The increase in Wealth revenue is attributable to market appreciation, increased assets under management and revenue from an institutional client, increased brokerage revenue and a fall 2007 minimum fee increase.
14
In 2006, the Wealth Management Segment reported a 15.8% or $817 thousand increase in PTSP over 2005. This increase was due to a 7.7% or $883 thousand increase in Wealth Management revenue while costs rose only 1.0% or $63 thousand. The increase in Wealth Management fee revenue in 2006 compared to 2005 is related to strong results from the investment management, retirement services and estate administration components, along with increased assets under management and related revenue from an institutional client. Increased investment management fees are the result of conversion of certain lower custody accounts to higher fee investment management accounts. Wealth Management personnel costs in 2006 were only 4.5% or $162 thousand higher than 2005 in part due to the departure of the Wealth Management executive in September 2006, which position was not filled until February 2007.
Wealth Management fee revenue in 2007, 2006 and 2005 includes $580 thousand, $403 thousand and $221 thousand, respectively, of fees that will no longer be earned relating to one institutional client that was acquired by another financial institution in a business combination on November 16, 2007.
Banking Segment Activity
Banking segment data as presented in Note 23 in the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements indicates a PTSP of $13.6 million in 2007, $13.0 million in 2006 and $11.4 million in 2005. See Components of Net Income earlier in this documentation for a discussion of the Banking segment.
C APITAL
Consolidated shareholders equity of the Corporation was $90.4 million or 9.02% of total assets as of December 31, 2007 compared to $82.1 million or 9.93% of total assets as of December 31, 2006. The decline of 91 basis points is primarily the result of asset growth. It should be noted that 32 basis points of the 91 basis point decrease can be attributed to the change in year end short-term customer deposit inflows of approximately $35.0 million ($70.0 million in 2007 compared to $35.0 million in 2006). The Corporations and Banks regulatory capital ratios and the minimum capital requirements to be considered Well Capitalized by banking regulators are displayed in Note 20 of the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Both the Corporation and the Bank exceed the required capital levels to be considered Well Capitalized by their respective regulators at the end of each period presented.
Neither the Corporation nor the Bank are under any agreement with regulatory authorities, nor is Management aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities which, if such recommendations were implemented, would have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations of the Corporation.
The Corporations Capital Policy states that 50% of capital generated from net earnings will be retained with balance going towards the dividend (historically 33% of net earnings) and the repurchase of the Corporations common stock. During 2007 and 2006, the Corporation repurchased $2.4 million and $3.4 million in common stock representing 101,403 and 150,000 shares at an average cost of $23.85 and $22.71, respectively.
The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158 Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Plans (FAS 158) on December 31, 2006. As a result of its adoption, the Corporation recorded additional pension liabilities of approximately $6.5 million, deferred taxes of approximately $2.3 and a reduction of accumulated other comprehensive income (shareholders equity) of approximately $4.2 million effective December 31, 2006.
See Note 1-U in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
L IQUIDITY
The Corporation manages its liquidity position on a daily basis as part of the daily settlement function and monthly as part of the asset liability management process. The Corporations primary liquidity is maintained by managing its deposits along with the utilization of purchased federal funds, borrowings from the FHLB and utilization of other wholesale funding sources. Secondary sources of liquidity include the sale of investment securities and certain loans in the secondary market.
Other wholesale funding sources include certificates of deposit from brokers, generally available in blocks of $1.0 million or more, CDARS and PLGIT. The Corporation is also evaluating additional wholesale funding sources.
Borrowing availability with the FHLB was approximately $263.0 million, excluding $45.0 million of advances outstanding, as of December 31, 2007. Overnight Fed Funds lines consist of lines from 8 banks totaling $90.0 million. Quarterly, ALCO reviews the Corporations liquidity needs and reports its findings to the Risk Management Committee of the Board of Directors.
The Corporations investment portfolio of $48.4 million at December 31, 2007 is approximately 4.8% of total assets. The Corporation intends to grow the investment portfolio, funded with a mix of wholesale funds from various sources, up to $100 million or 10% of total assets by the end of 2008. This action will serve to increase liquidity and provide the Corporation the opportunity to utilize the securities to borrow additional funds through the FHLB or through repurchase agreements.
15
The Corporation continually evaluates the capacity and the cost of continuing to fund earning asset growth with wholesale deposits. The Corporation believes that it has sufficient capacity to fund expected 2008 earning asset growth with wholesale sources.

The Corporation becomes party to financial instruments 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 create off-balance sheet risk.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to a customer for a third party. Such standby letters of credit are issued to support private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is similar to that involved in granting loan facilities to customers.
Estimated fair values of the Corporations off-balance sheet
instruments are based on fees and rates currently charged to enter into similar loan agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties credit standing. Collateral requirements for off-balance sheet
items are generally based upon the same standards and policies as booked loans. Since fees and rates charged for off-balance sheet items are at market levels when set, there is no material difference between the stated amount and the estimated fair

O THER I NFORMATION
Branch Offices
In January of 2007, the Corporation opened a new branch in a prime location in Ardmore, PA. Customers accounts were transferred to the Ardmore branch from the Wynnewood branch as the Wynnewood, PA branch was closed. The Wynnewood branch real estate was sold during the first quarter of 2007. The opening of the Corporations planned West Chester, PA regional office location has been delayed due to difficulties experienced by the developer and is not expected to happen until late in 2008.
Regulatory Matters and Pending Legislation
Management is not aware of any other current specific recommendations by regulatory authorities or proposed legislation which, if implemented, would have a material adverse effect upon the liquidity, capital resources, or results of operations, however the general cost of compliance with numerous and multiple federal and state laws and regulations does have, and in the future may have, an impact on the Corporations results of operations.
In February 2006, Congress passed the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (FDIRA-2005). This legislation will (i) merge the Bank Insurance Fund and the Savings Association Insurance Fund into one fund;
(ii) increase insurance coverage for retirement accounts to $250,000; (iii) adjust the maximum deposit insurance for inflation after March 31, 2010; and (iv) give the FDIC greater flexibility in setting insurance assessments. As part of the FDIRA-2005, the Corporations primary operating subsidiary, the Bank, has been granted a one-time credit of approximately $409 thousand for utilization against future FDIC insurance premiums. The FDIC announced that 2007 assessments will range from 5 to 7 basis points for well capitalized institutions with composite regulatory examination ratings of one or two. The Corporation utilized approximately $365 thousand of these credits in 2007 against 2007 premium assessments and has approximately $45 thousand in credits remaining at December 31, 2007 to be utilized in 2008.
16
Effects of Inflation
Inflation has some impact on the Corporations operating costs. Unlike many industrial companies, however, substantially all of the Corporations assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Corporations performance than the general level of inflation. Over short periods of time, interest rates may not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as prices of goods and services.
Effect of Government Monetary Policies
The earnings of the Corporation are and will be affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. An important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate the money supply and interest rates. Among the instruments used to implement those objectives are open market operations in United States government securities and changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments, and deposits, and their use may also affect rates charged on loans or paid for deposits.
The Corporation is a member of the Federal Reserve System and, therefore, the policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve Board have a significant effect on its deposits, loans and investment growth, as well as the rate of interest earned and paid, and are expected to affect the Corporations operations in the future. The effect of such policies and regulations upon the future business and earnings of the Corporation cannot be predicted.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation:
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation and subsidiaries (the Corporation) as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Corporations management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting . Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Corporations internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of the Corporation as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows, changes in shareholders equity, and comprehensive income, for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, and our report dated March 10, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. S UMMARY OF S IGNIFICANT A CCOUNTING P OLICIES
A. Nature of Business
The Bryn Mawr Trust Company (the Bank) received its Pennsylvania banking charter in 1889 and is a member of the Federal Reserve System. In 1986, Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation (the Corporation) was formed and on January 2, 1987, the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The Bank and Corporation are headquartered in Bryn Mawr, PA, a western suburb of Philadelphia, PA. The Corporation and its subsidiaries provide wealth management, community banking, residential mortgage lending, insurance and business banking services to its customers through eight full service branches and seven retirement community offices throughout Montgomery, Delaware and Chester counties. The Corporation trades on the NASDAQ Global Market (NASD) under the symbol BMTC.
The Corporation operates in a highly competitive market area that includes local, national and regional banks as competitors along with savings banks, credit unions, insurance companies, trust companies, registered investment advisors and mutual fund families. The Corporation and its subsidiaries are regulated by many regulatory agencies including the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), NASD, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Federal Reserve and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking.
B. Basis of Presentation
The accounting policies of the Corporation conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and predominate practice within the banking industry. Statements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board are noted in these statements by the abbreviation FAS.
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Corporations consolidated financial condition and results of operations consist almost entirely of the Banks financial condition and results of operations. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
In preparing the Financial Statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheets, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
C. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, and interest-bearing deposits with other banks with original maturities of three months or less. Cash balances required to meet regulatory reserve requirements of the Federal Reserve Board amounted to $2.0 million and $2.1 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
D. Investment Securities
Investment securities which are held for indefinite periods of time, which management intends to use as part of its asset/liability strategy, or which may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risk, increases in capital requirements, or other similar factors, are classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value. Net unrealized gains and losses for such securities, net of tax, are required to be recognized as a separate component of shareholders equity and excluded from determination of net income. Gains or losses on disposition are based on the net proceeds and cost of the securities sold, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, using the specific identification method.
E. Loans Held for Sale
Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income.
F. Portfolio Loans and Leases
The Corporation grants construction, commercial, residential mortgage and consumer loans to customers primarily in Southeastern Pennsylvania and small ticket equipment leasing to customers nationwide. Although the Corporation has a diversified loan and lease portfolio, its debtors ability to honor their contracts is substantially dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions of the region.
Loans and leases that the Corporation has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off, generally are reported at their outstanding principal balance adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan and lease losses and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans and leases. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.
Loan and lease origination fees and loan and lease origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related yield using the interest method.
26
The accrual of interest on loans and leases is generally discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. Loans and leases are placed on non-accrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. All interest accrued, but not collected for loans that are placed on non-accrual status or charged-off is reversed against interest income. All interest accrued, but not collected on leases that are placed on non-accrual status is not reversed against interest until the lease is charged-off at 120 days. The interest received on these non-accrual loans and leases is applied to reduce the carrying value of loans and leases or, if principal is considered fully collectible, recognized as interest income until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans and leases are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
G. Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance for loan and lease losses (allowance) is established through a provision for loan and lease losses (provision) charged as an expense. Loans and leases are charged against the allowance when Management believes that the principal is uncollectible. The allowance is maintained at a level that Management believes is sufficient to absorb estimated probable credit losses.
Managements determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the loan and lease portfolio and other relevant factors. However, this evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires significant estimates by Management. Consideration is given to a variety of factors in establishing these estimates including specific terms and conditions of loans and leases, underwriting standards, delinquency statistics, industry concentration, overall exposure to a single customer, adequacy of collateral, the dependence on collateral, and results of internal loan review, including borrowers perceived financial and management strengths, the amounts and timing of the present value of future cash flows, and access to additional funds.
The evaluation process also considers the impact of competition, current and expected economic conditions, national and international events, the regulatory and legislative environment and inherent risks in the loan and lease portfolio. All of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. To the extent actual outcomes differ from Management estimates, an additional provision for loan losses may be required that might adversely affect the Corporations results of operations in future periods. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance. Such agencies may require the Corporation to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.
During 2007, the Corporation made refinements along with changes to estimates of loss in certain asset classes. These changes in estimates resulted in a lower pre-tax provision for loan and lease losses in 2007 than would have resulted under the previous loss estimates of approximately $1.2 million which equates to $0.09 per diluted share (after tax).
H. Impaired Loans and Leases
A loan or lease is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Managements assessment of impairment is applied to the factors considered in determining impairment. Factors include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans and leases that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired.
Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrowers prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.
Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, the loans obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Residential, consumer and home equity loans are not specifically evaluated for impairment.
I. Other Real Estate Owned
Other real estate owned (OREO) consists of assets that the Corporation has acquired through foreclosure, by accepting a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by taking possession of assets that were used as loan collateral. The Corporation reports OREO as a component of Other Assets on the balance sheet at the lower of cost or estimated fair value less cost to sell, adjusted periodically based on current appraisals.
J. Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and rent are recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the expected lease term or the estimated useful lives, whichever is shorter.
K. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Corporation has two defined benefit pension plans and one postretirement benefit plan as discussed in Note 11 Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans. Net pension expense consists of service cost, interest cost, return on plan
27
assets, amortization of prior service cost, amortization of transition obligations and amortization of net actuarial gains and losses. The Corporation accrues pension costs as incurred.
The Corporation adopted FAS No. 158 Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Plans and Other Post Retirement Plans (FAS 158) on December 31, 2006. As a result of this adoption, the Corporation recorded an additional pension liability resulting in a reduction of accumulated other comprehensive income in 2006.
See Note 24 - Subsequent Event Pension and 401(K) Plans.
L. BOLI
The Bank purchased $15.0 million of BOLI during the second quarter of 2007. The Bank is the owner and beneficiary of the contracts and will use the proceeds from the BOLI contract to help offset the costs of broad based employer benefit expenses.
BOLI is recorded at its cash surrender value on the balance sheet. Income from BOLI is tax exempt and included as a component of other non-interest income.
M. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
The Corporation adopted FAS No. 123R Share Based Payments Amendment of FASB No. 123 and APB No. 25 (FAS 123R) effective January 1, 2006. FAS 123R establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, stock based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense over the vesting period. The Corporation previously applied Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations and provided the required pro forma disclosures of FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (FAS 123).
Generally, the approach in FAS 123R to stock-based payment accounting is similar to FAS 123. However, FAS 123R requires all share-based payments, including grants of stock options, be recognized as compensation cost in the statement of income at their fair value. The fair value of stock option grants is determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The assumptions necessary for the calculation of the fair value are expected life of options, annual volatility of stock price, risk free interest rate and annual dividend yield. Pro forma disclosure for periods beginning after December 15, 2005 is not an alternative under FAS 123R.
The Corporation elected to adopt FAS 123R using the modified prospective application method in which compensation cost is recognized beginning with the effective date (a) based upon the requirements of FAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after the effective date, and (b) based on the requirements of FAS 123 for all awards granted prior to the effective date of FAS 123R that remain unvested on the effective date.
Stock-based compensation expense for 2007 and 2006 and proforma expense for 2005 are shown in the table below:

See Note 13, Stock Option Plan, and Note 14, Earnings Per Share, in these Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding equity based compensation and earnings per share, respectively.
N. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during this period. Diluted earnings per common share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if stock options were exercised and converted into common stock. Proceeds assumed to have been received on such exercise are assumed to be used to purchase shares of the Corporations common stock at the average market price during the period, as required by the treasury stock method of accounting. The effects of stock options are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods in which the effect would be antidilutive. All weighted average shares, actual shares and per share information in the financial statements have been adjusted retroactively for the effect of stock dividends and splits.
O. Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
28
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
P. Revenue Recognition
With the exception of non-accrual loans and leases, the Corporation recognizes all sources of income on the accrual basis. Additional information relating to wealth management fee revenue recognition follows:
The Corporation earns wealth management fee revenue from a variety of sources including fees from trust administration and other related fiduciary services, custody, investment management and advisory services, employee benefit account and IRA administration, estate settlement, tax service fees, shareholder service fees and brokerage. The Corporation also earned fees in 2005, 2006 and 2007 for providing investment advisory services to the clients of another financial institution. For many of our revenue sources, amounts are not received in the same accounting period in which they are earned. However, each source of Wealth Management fees is recorded on the accrual method of accounting.
The most significant portion of the Corporations Wealth Management fees is derived from trust administration and other related services, custody, investment management and advisory services, and employee benefit account and IRA administration. These fees are generally billed in arrears, based on the market value of assets at the end of the previous billing period. A smaller number of customers are billed in a similar manner, but on a quarterly or annual basis.
The balance of the Corporations Wealth Management income includes: shareholder service fees, which are received monthly and quarterly in arrears, but accrued monthly based on the estimated market value of the Corporations position in the applicable mutual fund; (2) estate settlement fees and tax service fees, which are recorded when the related service is performed; and (3) brokerage fees on non-depository investment products, which are received one month in arrears based on settled transactions but are accrued in the month when the settlement occurs. Investment advisory fees from the other financial institution relates to a revenue source that ceased in 2007 when the unrelated entity was acquired by another financial institution.
Included in other assets on the statement of condition is a wealth management fee receivable that reflects the impact of fees earned but not yet collected. This receivable is reviewed quarterly for collectibility.
Q. Mortgage Servicing
The Corporation performs various servicing functions on loans owned by others. A fee, usually based on a percentage of the outstanding principal balance of the loan, is received for these services. Gain on sale of loans is based on the specific identification method.
Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) are recognized as separate assets when rights are retained through the sale of financial assets. Capitalized servicing rights are reported in other assets and are amortized into non-interest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets.
Servicing assets are evaluated quarterly for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights by predominant characteristics, such as interest rate and terms. Fair value is determined based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Impairment is recognized on the income statement to the extent the fair value is less than the capitalized amount for the stratum. A valuation allowance is utilized to record temporary impairment in MSRs. Temporary impairment is defined as impairment that is not deemed permanent. Permanent impairment is recorded as a reduction of the MSR and is not reversed.
R. Statement of Cash Flows
The Corporations statement of cash flows details operating, investing and financing activities during the reported periods.
S. Interest Rate Floor
The Corporation accounts for derivatives under FASB Statement No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments on Hedging Activities, as amended. The Corporation records interest rate floors, which are not used as hedging instruments, at fair value on the balance sheet as part of other assets. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate floor are recorded in current earnings as other operating income or other operating expense, depending on whether the net change in value for the applicable period was a gain or loss.
T. Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
U. New Accounting Pronouncements
Standards Adopted:
FAS 155
In February 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 155 Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (FAS 155). Among other things, this Statement permits fair value remeasurement for certain hybrid financial instruments and requires that entities evaluate whether beneficial interests contain embedded derivatives or are derivatives in their entirety.
29
This Statement became effective January 1, 2007 and did not have a material impact on the Corporations consolidated financial statements.
FAS 156
In March 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets (FAS 156). FAS 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset. FAS 156 also requires fair value measurement of a servicing asset or liability upon initial recognition and permits different methods to subsequently measure each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement additionally permits under certain circumstances a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights, without calling into question the treatment of other available-for-sale securities under FAS 115.
This Statement became effective January 1, 2007 and did not have a material impact on the Corporations consolidated financial statements.
Standards Not Yet Adopted:
FAS 157
In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157 Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair-value measurements. The Statement applies only to fair-value measurements that are already required or permitted by other accounting standards.
FAS 157 is effective for fair-value measures already required or permitted by other standards for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Corporation did not early adopt FAS 157 and has determined this Statement will not have a material impact on the Corporations consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
FAS 159
In February 2007 the FASB issued FAS No. 159 The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (FAS 159). FAS 159 permits entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions.
FAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Corporation did not early adopt FAS 159, and has determined this Statement will not have a material impact on the Corporations consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
FAS 160
In December 2007 the FASB issued FAS No. 160 Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements Including an Amendment of ARB No. 51 (FAS 160). FAS 160 improves the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the denconsolidation of a subsidiary.
FAS 160 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The Corporation has not yet determined whether this statement will have a material impact on the Corporations consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
FAS No. 141 (revised)
In December 2007, FASB issued FAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations. FAS No. 141 (revised) retains the fundamental requirement of FAS 141 that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. However, FAS No. 141 (revised) does not make significant changes to the accounting for a business combination achieved in stages, the treatment of contingent consideration, transaction and restructuring costs, and other aspects of business combination accounting. FAS No. 141 (revised) will be effective with the fiscal year that begins on January 1, 2009, and will change the Corporations accounting treatment for business combinations on a prospective basis.
SAB No. 109
In November 2007, the SEC issued SAB No. 109, Written Loan Commitments Recorded at Fair Value Through Earnings. SAB No. 109 supersedes SAB No. 105, Loan Commitments Accounted for as Derivative Instruments, and expresses the view that expected net future cash flows related to the servicing of loans should be included in the fair value measurement of all written loan commitments that are accounted for a fair value through earnings. SAB No. 109 retains the views in SAB No. 105 that internally developed intangible assets (such as client relationship intangible assets) should not be included in the fair value measurement of derivative loan commitments. SAB No. 109 became effective on January 1, 2008 and did not have a material effect on the Corporations consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
SAB No. 110
In December 2007, the SEC issued SAB No. 110, and extended, under certain circumstances, the availability of a simplified method for estimating the expected term of plain vanilla share options in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (revised). Since the Corporation does not use the simplified method to estimate the expected term of share options, the adoption of SAB No. 110 did not effect the Corporations consolidated financial statements.
30
V. Adjustment Related to Prior Financial Statements
In January 2008, the Corporation identified that there was an immaterial under-accrual of payroll related liabilities in each of its prior quarterly and year end statements of condition. These financial statements reflect the correction of this immaterial error as follows: Other assets at December 31, 2006 and 2005 were reported as $12.9 million and $15.1 million, respectively, and were adjusted to $13.1 million and $15.2 million, respectively; Other liabilities at December 31, 2006 and 2005 were reported as $10.4 million and $11.3 million, respectively, and were adjusted to $10.9 million and $11.8 million, respectively; Retained earnings at December 31, 2006 and 2005 were reported as $92.1 million and $82.9 million, respectively, and were adjusted to $91.8 million and $82.6 million, respectively. Shareholders equity at December 31, 2006 and 2005 were reported as $82.4 million and $77.5 million, respectively, and were adjusted to $82.1 million and $77.2 million, respectively. The error had no impact on earnings in 2006 or 2005. The Statement of changes in shareholders equity shows a decrease of $291 thousand in retained earnings as of December 31, 2004 relating to the correction of this immaterial error.
In 2006, the Corporation determined that two prior misstatements were material under the guidance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No.108 (SAB 108) and were recorded in the 2006 Consolidated Financial Statements. Consistent with the adoption in 2006 of SAB 108 and its transition provisions, the Statement of Changes in Shareholders Equity reflects a cumulative effect adjustment of an increase in retained earnings of $408 thousand effective January 1, 2006 related to these errors.

The Corporation has concluded that the unrealized losses presented in the table above are temporary in nature as they are primarily related to market interest rates and are not related to the underlying credit quality of the issuers. None of the investments are believed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. The Corporation has the ability and intent to hold the securities until maturity to recover the entire value. At December 31, 2007 securities having a book value of $16.0 million were pledged as collateral for public funds, trust deposits, and other purposes.

For the periods ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) is $3,881,000, $4,289,000 and $4,843,000, respectively. The fair value of the MSRs for these periods was determined using a third-party valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds and discount rates. Mortgage loan prepayment speed is the annual rate at which borrowers are forecasted to repay their mortgage loan principle and is based on historical experience. The discount rate is used to determine the present value of future net servicing income another key assumption in the model-is the required rate of return the market would expect for an asset with similar risk. Both assumptions can, and generally will, change quarterly valuations as market conditions and interest rates change.
These assumptions and sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. As the figures indicate, changes in fair value based on a 10% variation in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumptions to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the MSRs is calculated without changing any other assumption. In realty, changes in one factor may result in changes in another, which could magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

The Corporation has unused FHLB borrowing capacity of $263.0 million at December 31, 2007. In connection with its FHLB borrowings, the Corporation is required to hold stock in the FHLB. This amount was $2.8 million at December 31, 2007 and is included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. The carrying amount of the FHLB stock approximates its fair value.
9. D ISCLOSURE ABOUT F AIR V ALUE OF F INANCIAL I NSTRUMENTS
FAS No. 107 Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments (FAS 107) requires disclosure of the fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate such value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other market value techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. FAS 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Corporation.
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 that value:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values.
Investment Securities
Estimated fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market price, where available.
Loans and Leases
For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and which have no significant change in credit risk, estimated fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values of certain mortgage loans and consumer loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. The estimated fair value of nonperforming loans is based on discounted estimated cash flows as determined by the internal
34
loan review of the Bank or the appraised market value of the underlying collateral, as determined by independent third party appraisers.
Other Assets
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and other investments approximates fair value.
Deposits
The estimated fair values disclosed for noninterest-bearing demand deposits, NOW accounts, and Market Rate accounts are, by definition, equal to the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of expected monthly maturities on the certificate of deposit. FAS 107 defines the fair value of demand deposits as the amount payable on demand and prohibits adjusting estimated fair value from any value derived from retaining those deposits for an expected future period of time.
Borrowed Funds
The fair value of borrowed funds is established using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on mid-term and long term borrowings.
Other Liabilities
The carrying amounts of accrued interest payable, accrued taxes payable and other accrued payables approximate fair value.
Off-Balance Sheet Instruments
Estimated fair values of the Corporations off-balance sheet instruments (standby letters of credit and loan commitments) are based on fees and rates currently charged to enter into similar loan agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties credit standing. Since fees and rates charged for off-balance sheet items are at market levels when set, there is no material difference between the stated amount and estimated fair values of off-balance sheet instruments.

10. 401(K) P LAN
The Corporation has a qualified defined contribution plan for all eligible employees under which the Corporation contributes $1.00 for each $1.00 that an employee contributes up to a maximum of 3.0% of the employees base salary. The Corporations expenses for the 401(K) Plan were $410 thousand, $362 thousand and $339 thousand in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
See Note 24 Subsequent Event Pension and 401(K) Plans.
11. P ENSION AND P OSTRETIREMENT B ENEFIT P LANS
The Corporation has two defined benefit pension plans, the qualified defined benefit plan (QDBP) which covers all employees over age 20 1/2 who meet certain service requirements and the non-qualified defined benefit pension plan (SERP) which is restricted to certain officers of the Corporation. The Corporation also has a postretirement benefit plan (PRBP) that covers certain retired employees and a group of current employees. The PRBP was closed to new participants in 1994.
The Corporation adopted FAS 158 on December 31, 2006. As a result of its adoption, the Corporation recorded additional pension liabilities of $6.5 million; deferred taxes of $2.3 million and a reduction of accumulated other comprehensive income (shareholders equity) of $4.2 million at that date.
Federal Reserve Bank guidance states that the effects of the initial adoption and subsequent application of FAS 158 are excluded from regulatory capital calculations. See Note 20 Regulatory Capital Requirements for more information.

The expected rate of return on plan assets in the QDBP was selected by Management after consultation with the Corporations actuary, and is based in part on long term historical rates of return and various actuarial assumptions. The discount rate was also selected by Management after consultation with the Corporations actuary, and is based in part upon the current yield of a basket of long term investment grade securities.
The investment strategy of the QDBP is to maintain the investment ranges listed above. The target
ranges are to be periodically reviewed based on the prevailing market conditions. Any modification to the current investment strategy must be ratified by the Executive Committee of the Corporations Board of Directors. The QDBP will retain

Other Pension and Post Retirement Benefit Information
In 2005, the Corporation capped the maximum payment under the PRBP at 120% of the 2005 benefit. The cost is at or near the cap in 2008. The long term impact of the cap will be to make the cost trend rate assumed for 2008 immaterial.
In 2007, the Corporation amended the PRBP to allow for settlement of obligations to certain current and retired employees. Certain retired participant obligations were settled in 2007 and current employee obligations will be settled in 2008.
Expected Contribution to be Paid in the Next Fiscal Year
Based on the status of the Corporations QDBP at December 31, 2007 no minimum funding requirement is anticipated for 2008. The 2008 expected contribution for the SERP is $137 thousand.

The Corporation adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48) on January 1, 2007. As required by FIN 48, which clarifies FAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, the Corporation recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the Corporation would more likely than not sustain the position following an examination. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with the relevant tax authority. At the adoption date, the Corporation applied these criteria to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open. There were no adjustments to retained earnings for unrecognized tax benefits as a result of the implementation of FIN 48.
The Corporation is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and in multiple state jurisdictions. The Corporation is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by tax authorities for the years before 2004. The Corporations 2005 tax year is currently under audit by the Internal Revenue Service.
The Corporations policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense.
No interest or penalties were accrued in 2007.
13. S TOCK O PTION P LAN :
The Corporation permits the issuance of stock options, dividend equivalents, performance awards, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and/or restricted stock units to employees and directors of the Corporation under several plans. The terms and conditions of awards under the plans are determined by the Corporations Compensation Committee.
On April 25, 2007 the Shareholders approved the Corporations 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) under which a total of 428,996 shares of the Corporations common stock were made available for award grants under the LTIP. In 2007, 128,500 of these grants were issued as non-qualified stock options were issued under the LTIP and vest over a five year period from the date of grant. In addition, 4,000 non-qualified stock options were issued during 2007 under the prior plan and vest over a three year period from the date of grant. 10,189 shares remain available for future distribution under the prior stock option plan. The exercise
38
price for stock options issued under the LTIP is the closing price for the stock on the day preceding the date of the grant. The price for options issued under the prior plan is set at the last sale price for the stock on the day preceding the date of the grant. The Corporations practice is to issue option related shares from authorized but unissued shares or treasury.

Weighted average fair value of options granted |
$ | 4.90 - $6.82 | $ | 6.45 | $ | 4.41 |
Expected dividend yield is determined based on the companys annual dividend amount as a percentage of the average stock price at the time of the grant. Expected volatility of the Corporations stock is determined based on the historic volatility of the companys stock price. The risk free interest rate is determined based on a yield curve of the U.S. Treasury rates ranging from one month to ten years and a period commensurate with the expected life of the option.

18. F INANCIAL I NSTRUMENTS WITH O FF -B ALANCE S HEET R ISK AND C ONCENTRATION OF C REDIT R ISK
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. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Corporation has in particular classes of financial instruments.
The Corporations exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet financial instruments.
41
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the agreement. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, and the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Total commitments to extend credit at December 31, 2007 were $323.0 million. The Corporation evaluates each customers 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 managements credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral varies but may include accounts receivable, marketable securities, inventory, property, plant and equipment, residential real estate, and income-producing commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to a customer for a third party. Such standby letters of credits are issued to support private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is similar to that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The collateral varies, but may include accounts receivable, marketable securities, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and residential real estate for those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary. The Corporations obligation under standby letters of credit as of December 31, 2007 amounted to $10.5 million. There were no outstanding bankers acceptances as of December 31, 2007.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Corporation has a material portion of its loans in real estate related loans. A predominant percentage of the Corporations real estate exposure, both commercial and residential, is in the Corporations primary trade area which includes portions of Delaware, Chester, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Management is aware of this concentration and mitigates this risk to the extent possible in many ways, including the underwriting and assessment of borrowers capacity to repay. See Note 3 Loans and Leases for additional information.
At December 31, 2007 the total first lien interest only residential loans of $56.8 million included $47.6 million of adjustable rate loans that convert to principal and interest payments between five and ten years after inception and $9.2 million of fixed rate loans that continue as interest only loans until reaching maturity. At December 31, 2007 the balance sheet also includes $7.4 million one to four family residential loans secured by junior lien positions that are interest only loans. These fixed rate loans will remain as interest only loans until maturity.
As of December 31, 2007, the Corporation had no loans sold with recourse outstanding.
19. D IVIDEND R ESTRICTIONS
The Bank is subject to the Pennsylvania Banking Code of 1965 (the Code), as amended, and is restricted in the amount of dividends that can be paid to its shareholder, the Corporation. The Code restricts the payment of dividends by the Bank to the amount of its retained earnings which was $82.3 million as of December 31, 2007. However, the amount of dividends paid by the Bank cannot reduce capital levels below levels that would cause the Bank to be less than adequately capitalized as detailed in Note 20 Regulatory Capital Requirements.
20. R EGULATORY C APITAL R EQUIREMENTS
Both the Corporation and the Bank are 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 taken, could have a direct material effect on the Corporations and the Banks financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Corporation and the Bank 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 classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.
As set forth in the following table, quantitative measures have been established to ensure capital adequacy ratios required of both the Corporation and Bank. Both the Corporations and the Banks Tier II capital ratios are calculated by adding back a portion of the loan loss reserve to the Tier I capital. Management believes, as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, that the Corporation and the Bank have met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. Federal banking regulators have defined specific capital categories, and categories range from a best of well capitalized to a worst of critically under capitalized. Both the Corporation and the Bank are classified as well capitalized as of December 31, 2007 and 2006.
See Note 11 Pension and Post Retirement Benefit Plans for certain information relating to a reduction in capital and related regulatory capital impact.

23. S EGMENT I NFORMATION
FAS No. 131 Segment Reporting (FAS 131) identifies operating segments as components of an enterprise which are evaluated regularly by the Corporations Chief Executive Officer in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Corporation has applied the aggregation criterion set forth in FAS 131 to the results of its operations.
The Corporations Banking segment consists of commercial and retail banking. The Banking segment is evaluated as a single strategic unit which generates revenues from a variety of products and services. The Banking segment generates interest income from its lending (including leases) and investing activities and is dependent on the gathering of lower cost deposits from its branch network or borrowed funds from other sources for funding its loans, resulting in the generation of net interest income. The Banking segment also derives revenues from other sources including service charges on deposit accounts; cash sweep fees, overdraft fees, BOLI income and interchange revenue associated with its Visa Check Card offering.
The Wealth Management segment has responsibility for the following activities within the Corporation, including trust administration, other related fiduciary services, custody, investment management and advisory services, employee benefits and IRA administration, estate settlement, tax services and brokerage.
Wealth Management revenues include for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, $580 thousand, $403 thousand and $221 thousand, respectively, of fees that will no longer be earned relating to one institutional client that was acquired by another financial institution in a business combination on November 16, 2007. Wealth assets under Management and Administration at December 31, 2006 and 2005 relating to this client were approximately $296.2 million and $412.4 million, respectively, and zero at December 31, 2007.
The Mortgage Banking segment includes the origination of residential mortgage loans and the sale and servicing of such loans to the secondary mortgage market. This segment also includes the Corporations title insurance and joint mortgage origination activity with a real estate brokerage organization.
The All Other segment includes activities and expenses that do not fit into the other three segments including general corporate activities such as shareholder relations costs, NASDAQ fees and the annual meeting of shareholders. This segment also includes revenues and expenses from the Corporations insurance agency activities and interest income from notes receivable which ceased in 2006
The accounting policies of the Corporation are applied by segment in the following tables. The segments are presented on a pre-tax basis which is the way management evaluates business results.
The Banking, Wealth Management and Mortgage Banking segments consolidate and roll-up through the Bank.
