Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



To Participants and Administrators
of the DNB First 401(k) Retirement Plan

 
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the DNB First 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits 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 the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 
Our audit of the Plan's financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005, and in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Form 11-K

Notes to Financial Statements
 
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
 
The following description of the Plan provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
 
General. The Plan is a defined contribution plan, which covers employees of DNB First (the “Company”.) Those employees eligible to participate in the Plan become eligible for the Plan immediately when employment begins. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
 
Contributions. Each year, participants may contribute an amount up to 100% of pretax annual compensation. For 2005, 2004 and 2003 this was limited to $14,000, $13,000 and $12,000, respectively, as defined by the IRS. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or defined contribution plans. The Company may, at its discretion, match contributions each year. For 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Company match was $0.25 per dollar up to a maximum of 6% of salary-deferred contributions. The Company’s matching contributions to the plan for 2005, 2004 and 2003 were $81,000, $66,000 and $55,000 respectively. The plan also allows the Company to make additional discretionary contributions and qualified non-elective contributions. Additional discretionary contributions for 2005, 2004 and 2003 were $0, $151,000 and $0, respectively. Qualified non-elective contributions for 2005 were $224,000. There were no qualified non-elective contributions for 2004 and 2003.

Effective July 1, 2005, the Plan was amended to include the option for the participants to invest in Company stock, and to permit the employer matching contribution and qualified non-elective contributions to be made in Company stock. In addition, the Plan was amended to allow for an employer discretionary contribution. The amendment also allowed the Plan to have multiple trust agreements in effect.
 
Vesting. Participants are 100% vested immediately in employee and employer matching contributions and qualified non-elective contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Participants are 100% vested in additional discretionary contributions made by the Company after 3 years of vested service.
 
Participant Accounts. Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions and allocations of (a) the Company's contributions and (b) Plan earnings, and is charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocation of expenses are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined.
 
Participant Loans. The Plan does not allow Participants to borrow from their fund accounts.
 
Plan Termination. Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA.
 
Payment of Benefits. In general, amounts held in the participant’s account are not distributable until the participant terminates employment, reaches age 59-1/2, dies or becomes permanently disabled. At that time, the participant may receive a lump-sum amount equal to the vested value of his or her account. Participants may also withdraw funds in certain situations.
 
As of December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, $331,982, $72,302 and $1,278, respectively, of the Plan's assets were allocated to the accounts of persons who have terminated employment with the employer, but have not been paid.
 
Forfeited Accounts. Effective January 1, 2005, forfeited accounts are used to offset future employer contributions. There was $4,346 in forfeited accounts in 2005. At December 31, 2005, $4,346 of the forfeited accounts were

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
 
available to offset future employer contributions. For 2004 and 2003, forfeited accounts would have been allocated to each person who is an eligible participant on the last day of the Plan year. There were no forfeited accounts in 2004 and 2003.
 
Administrative Expenses. Each participant's account is charged with an allocation of certain administrative expenses. Allocation of expenses are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined.
 
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The financial statements of The DNB First 401(k) Retirement Plan have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
 
USE OF ESTIMATES
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
INVESTMENT VALUATION AND INCOME RECOGNITION
 
The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value, except for its fully benefit responsive investment contract which is valued at contract value. Quoted market prices are used to value investments. Shares of mutual funds and DNB Financial Corporation common stock are valued at quoted prices, which represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at December 31, 2005 and 2004.
 
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
 
PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
 
Benefits are recorded when paid.
 
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
In 2003, JP Morgan Chase was the custodian or trustee for certain funds held as investment vehicles for the Plan. Effective May 24, 2004, Delaware Charter Guarantee & Trust Company, a member of the Principal Financial Group, is the custodian or trustee for certain funds held as investment vehicles for the Plan. Prior to June 30, 2005, the Plan’s investments included five mutual funds managed by Russell Investment Group and one investment contract managed by Principal Financial Group. Effective July 1, 2005, fifteen additional funds were added to the Plan as well as DNB Financial Corporation common stock. DNB Advisors is the Trustee for DNB Financial Corporation’s common stock held as an investment for the Plan. Principal Financial Group is the record-keeper for the Plan. Principal Financial Group and DNB Advisors are a party-in-interest to the Plan.

NOTE 4 - TAX STATUS
 
The Plan is evidenced by a prototype document sponsored by Principal Life Insurance Company. Principal Life Insurance Company has received a determination letter dated September 16, 2003 from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the prototype document complies with Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan is deemed to comply with Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code based on the favorable letter issued to Principal Life Insurance Company.

During 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Plan's investments (including investments bought, sold, as well as held during the year) appreciated in fair value by $228,506, $298,918 and $397,727 respectively. All investments in the Plan are made in mutual funds and investment contracts. The employer contributions are invested as directed by the participant.


NOTE 6 - INVESTMENT CONTRACT WITH INSURANCE COMPANY

The Principal Fixed Income Option 401(a)/401(k) is a general-account backed stable value contract. This group annuity contract has been issued to Principal Trust Company, who serves as custodian. The Principal Fixed Income Option contract guarantees principal and provides a stated rate of return backed by Principal Life Insurance Company. As an insurance contract, this is not an investment but a guarantee backed by the assets in Principal Life Insurance Company’s multi-billion dollar general account.

The contract is included in the financial statements at contract value (which approximates fair value) as reported to The Plan by Principal Life. Contract value represents contributions made under the contract, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals and administrative expenses. Participants may direct transfers in and out of the Principal Fixed Income Option. These transfers are made at book value (i.e. no market value adjustments or surrender charge adjustments). There are no reserves against contract value for credit risk of the contract issuer or otherwise. The stated rate of return will be reset January 1, 2006 and semi-annually thereafter. The average yield and crediting interest rates for the last two years were as follows:

There are no reconciling items per the financial statements to Schedule H of Form 5500.


NOTE 8 - ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

The Company pays certain administrative expenses and consulting expenses of the Plan. All investment and related expenses are paid from the net assets of the Plan. Investment expenses of $25,130, $20,133 and $15,634 were paid to parties-in-interest during 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.


NOTE 9 - PLAN AMENDMENTS

Effective May 24, 2004, the Plan was amended to reflect a change in the name of the Plan from Downingtown National Bank 401(k) to DNB First 401(k) Retirement Plan.

Effective January 1, 2005, the Plan was amended to include certain safe harbor elections under the Internal Revenue Code. The amendment, among other things, includes provisions to include bonuses in the definition of pay, a limit of 6% on elective salary deferrals matched by the Company and the elimination of the employer discretionary match and related vesting service requirement. In addition, employer qualified non-elective contributions will equal three percent of pay. Participants will no longer be required to be an active participant at the end of the Plan year to be included in employer qualified non-elective contributions. Such contributions will be allocated to participants when made.

Effective July 1, 2005, the Plan was amended to include the option for the participants to invest in Company stock, and to permit the employer matching contribution and qualified non-elective contributions to be made in Company stock. In addition, the Plan was amended to allow for an employer discretionary contribution. Employer contributions are participant directed as participants have the ability to transfer the employer contributions to other investment alternatives within the Plan.
