Forward-Looking Statement

Discussions in this report that are not statements of historical fact (including statements that include terms such as “will,” “may,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” intend,” “plan” and similar terms) are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Any forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance and actual future results could differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, without limitation, risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the FFD’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, operational, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond a company’s control, and many of which, with respect to future business decisions and actions (including acquisitions and divestitures), are subject to change. Examples of uncertainties and contingencies include, among other important factors, general and local economic and business conditions; recession or other economic downturns, expectations of and actual timing and amount of interest rate movements, including the slope of the yield curve (which can have a significant impact on a financial institution); market and monetary fluctuations; inflation or deflation; customer and investor responses to these conditions; the financial condition of borrowers and other counterparties; competition within and outside the financial services industry ; recent and future legislative and regulatory developments; demand for FFD’s products; new products and services in the industries in which FFD operates; critical accounting estimates; prepayment risks; fluctuation of collateral values; changes in customer profiles; changes in regulators; and changes in law and regulatory actions or rulemaking.

Other factors not currently anticipated may also materially and adversely affect FFD’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position. While FFD believes that the forward-looking statements in this report are reasonable, the reader should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. In addition, these statements speak only as of the date made and FFD does not undertake, and expressly disclaims, any obligation to update or alter any statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law.

General

FFD Financial Corporation (“FFD”), an Ohio corporation formed in 1996, is a savings and loan holding company which owns all of the outstanding common shares of First Federal Community Bank, a federal savings bank (“First Federal”).

First Federal has conducted business in Tuscarawas County, Ohio since it was incorporated in 1898 as an Ohio savings and loan association under the name “Dover Building & Loan Company.” First Federal obtained a federal savings and loan charter in 1937 under the name “First Federal Savings & Loan Association.” In 1983, First Federal changed to a federal savings bank charter under the name “First Federal Savings Bank of Dover,” and in August 2001, First Federal adopted its present name. First Federal’s primary market area is Tuscarawas, Holmes and some adjoining counties in Ohio. First Federal presently conducts business from its main office in Dover, Ohio, and branches in Dover, New Philadelphia, Sugarcreek and Berlin, Ohio. Additionally, First Federal provides access to its products and services via the Internet atwww.onlinefirstfed.com.

FFD is subject to regulation and examination by the Office of Thrift Supervision of the United States Department of the Treasury (the “OTS”) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). First Federal is subject to supervision and regulation by the OTS and by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). First Federal’s deposits are FDIC insured up to applicable limits.

First Federal’s business involves attracting deposits from individual and business customers and using these deposits to originate loans to individuals and businesses in its primary market area. First Federal provides deposit products, including checking, savings, money market and individual retirement accounts as well as certificates of deposit, and originates residential and home equity loans, construction loans, nonresidential real estate loans, business loans and

1

consumer loans. Loan funds are obtained primarily from deposits and loan repayments. First Federal obtains advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Cincinnati when other sources of funds are inadequate to fund loan demand and to help manage liquidity and interest rate risk. First Federal also invests in U.S. Government agency obligations, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, mortgage-backed securities and other investments permitted by applicable law.

First Federal’s primary source of income is interest on loans, mortgage-backed securities and investments. First Federal’s principal expense is interest paid on deposit accounts and borrowings. Operating results are dependent to a significant degree on First Federal’s net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on loans, mortgage-backed securities and other investments and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. First Federal’s interest income and interest expense are significantly affected by general and local economic conditions and by the policies of various regulatory authorities.

Lending Activities

General. First Federal’s principal lending activity is the origination of real estate loans and commercial loans in its primary market area. Real estate loans are typically secured by one- to four-family residential properties and nonresidential real estate. To a lesser extent, First Federal originates loans secured by multifamily properties containing five units or more, construction loans, and various types of consumer loans.

One- to Four-Family Residential Real Estate Loans. First Federal makes permanent loans secured by first mortgages on owner occupied and non owner occupied existing one- to four-family residences primarily located in its market area. First Federal also originates home equity loans secured by mortgages on one- to four-family residential real estate. The aggregate amount of First Federal’s one- to four-family residential real estate loans was $68.2 million, or 37.3% of total loans, at June 30, 2010.

First Federal offers adjustable-rate mortgage loans (“ARMs”) for terms up to 30 years. The interest rate adjustment periods on ARMs are one year, three years or five years. Most of First Federal’s ARMs adjust after one-year. The rates on ARMs are tied to the average monthly mortgage contract rate for previously occupied homes published by the Federal Housing Finance Board. The maximum allowable adjustment at each adjustment date is 2%. A limited number of First Federal’s ARMs have a maximum adjustment of 6% over the term of the loan.

ARMs decrease First Federal’s interest rate risk but involve other risks, primarily credit risk. As interest rates rise, the payment by the borrower increases to the extent permitted by the terms of the loan, thereby increasing the potential for default. At the same time, the marketability of the underlying property may be adversely affected by higher interest rates. First Federal believes that these risks have not had a material adverse effect to date.

First Federal originates fixed-rate loans with terms of up to 30 years, although the majority of First Federal’s fixed-rate loans are sold in the secondary market, usually with servicing retained.

To a lesser extent, First Federal makes loans for the construction of residential real estate. These loans are typically structured as permanent loans with adjustable or fixed rates of interest and terms from 15 to 30 years. Construction loans are made to owner-occupants for the construction of single-family homes by a general contractor and to developers for the construction of single-family homes.

3

Construction loans generally involve greater underwriting and default risks than loans secured by mortgages on existing properties. First Federal advances loan funds upon the security of the project under construction, which is more difficult to value before construction is complete. Because of the uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs, if a default on a construction loan occurs and foreclosure follows, First Federal must take control of the project and attempt either to arrange for the completion of construction or dispose of the unfinished project. At June 30, 2010, First Federal had $559,000 of undisbursed construction loans for one- to four-family real estate, had no construction loans in default and had not taken control of any construction projects.

Regulations limit the amount that First Federal may lend in relationship to the appraised value of the real estate securing the loan, as determined by an appraisal at the time of loan origination. Lending policies of First Federal limit the maximum loan amount as it relates to the value of the property (“Loan-to-Value Ratio” or “LTVs”). The maximum LTV without private mortgage insurance is 80% of the lower of appraised value or purchase price. However, First Federal makes loans in excess of 80% LTV on owner occupied single family, duplex and three- to four-family properties with private mortgage insurance. First Federal also has ARMs for owner occupied properties with LTVs up to 89% and an affordable housing loan program under which it originates a small number of ARMs with LTVs of up to 95%, each without private mortgage insurance. For non-owner occupied one- to two-family and three- to four-family properties, fixed rate loans with LTVs of 90% and 75%, respectively, are available with private mortgage insurance. For non-owner occupied properties with a maximum LTV of 85%, ARMs are available without private mortgage insurance.

Included in one- to four-family loans are lines of credit secured by a mortgage on the borrower’s principal residence. Typically, home equity lines of credit, when added to any prior indebtedness secured by the real estate, do not exceed 89% of the estimated value of the real estate. For borrowers with high credit ratings, First Federal originates a small number of home equity lines of credit up to 95% of the real estate’s value. First Federal’s home equity loans have terms of up to 15 years. Premier lines of credit are extended to certain limited high net worth borrowers in amounts which may exceed the estimated value of the underlying real estate. The interest rates charged by First Federal on home equity loans adjust monthly and are tied to the base rate on corporate loans, posted by at least 75% of the nation’s 30 largest banks, as reported inThe Wall Street Journal. At June 30, 2010, First Federal’s one- to four-family residen tial real estate loan portfolio included $15.9 million in home equity loans.

Multifamily Residential Real Estate Loans. First Federal originates loans secured by multifamily properties containing five or more units. The majority of these loans are made with adjustable interest rates, a maximum LTV of 85% and terms of up to 20 years.

Multifamily lending is generally considered to involve a higher degree of risk because the loan amounts are larger and the borrower typically depends upon income generated by the project to cover operating expenses and debt service. The profitability of a project can be affected by economic conditions, government policies and other factors beyond the control of the borrower. First Federal attempts to reduce the risk associated with multifamily lending by evaluating the borrower’s creditworthiness and the projected income from the project and by obtaining personal guarantees on loans made to business entities. At June 30, 2010, loans secured by multifamily properties totaled approximately $8.3 million, or 4.5% of total loans.

Nonresidential Real Estate and Land Loans. First Federal makes loans secured by nonresidential real estate such as retail stores, office buildings and other commercial properties, with terms of up to 20 years and a maximum LTV of 85%. First Federal also makes loans secured by improved and unimproved lots for the construction of single-family residences. Unimproved land and lot loans have terms of up to five years and a maximum LTV of 65%. Improved lot loans have terms of up to five years and a maximum LTV of 80%.

Nonresidential real estate lending is generally considered to involve a higher degree of risk than residential lending due to the relatively larger loan amounts and the effects of general economic conditions on the successful operation of income-producing properties. If, for example, leases are not obtained or renewed, the cash flow on the property may be reduced and the borrower’s ability to repay may be impaired. First Federal attempts to reduce such risk by evaluating the borrower’s credit history and past performance, the location of the real estate, the quality of the management constructing and operating the property, the debt service ratio, the quality and characteristics of the income stream generated by the property, personal guarantees and appraisals supporting the property’s valuation.

First Federal also originates loans for the construction of nonresidential real estate. These loans are typically structured as permanent loans with adjustable or fixed rates of interest and terms up to 20 years and generally involve greater underwriting and default risks than do loans secured by mortgages on existing properties. Because of the uncertainties inherent in estimating construction costs, in the event a default on a construction loan occurs and foreclosure follows, First Federal must take control of the project and attempt either to arrange for completion of construction or dispose of the unfinished project. At June 30, 2010, First Federal had $1.5 million in undisbursed construction loans for nonresidential real estate, did not have any such construction loans in default and had not taken control of any such projects.

At June 30, 2010, First Federal had a total of $80.1 million, or 43.8% of total loans, invested in nonresidential real estate and land loans. Federal regulations limit the amount of nonresidential mortgage and land loans which First Federal may make to 400% of its capital. At June 30, 2010, nonresidential mortgage and land loans totaled 372% of First Federal’s capital.

Commercial Loans. First Federal makes commercial loans to businesses in its primary market area which are secured by inventory, equipment, accounts receivable, machinery, personal guarantees or other assets of the borrower. The LTVs for commercial loans depend upon the nature of the underlying collateral, but generally do not exceed 85%. Commercial loans generally have fixed or adjustable interest rates with terms up to seven years.

Commercial loans generally entail significantly greater risk than real estate lending. The repayment of commercial loans is typically dependent on the income stream and successful operation of a business, which can be affected by general economic conditions.

At June 30, 2010, First Federal had approximately $20.2 million, or 11.1% of total loans, invested in commercial loans. OTS regulations limit the amount of First Federal’s commercial loans to 20% of First Federal’s total assets, provided that amounts in excess of 10% may only be used for small business loans. At June 30, 2010, First Federal complied with these limits.

Consumer Loans. First Federal makes various types of consumer loans, including unsecured loans and loans secured by savings accounts, motor vehicles and boats. Consumer loans are made at fixed or adjustable rates of interest. Unsecured loans are made with terms of up to two years. Motor vehicle loans are made with terms of up to five and a half years. Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than residential mortgage loans. The risk of default on consumer loans increases during periods of recession, high unemployment and other adverse economic conditions, and often the underlying collateral, such as a vehicle, declines in value over time.

At June 30, 2010, First Federal had approximately $6.0 million, or 3.3% of its total loans, invested in consumer loans.

Loan Solicitation and Processing. Loan originations are developed from a number of sources, including continuing business with depositors and borrowers, newspaper, television, and radio advertisements, solicitations by First Federal’s lending staff, automobile and boat dealers, word of mouth and walk-in customers.

Loan applications for residential and nonresidential real estate loans are taken by First Federal’s loan personnel. First Federal typically obtains, as applicable, verification of income, personal and/or entity credit reports, tax returns, financial statements, and other documentation concerning the borrower’s and/or guarantor’s creditworthiness. An appraisal or valuation of the fair market value of the real estate securing the loan is prepared by a staff appraiser or a fee appraiser approved by the Board of Directors. For construction loans, the appraiser also evaluates the building plans, construction specifications and estimates of construction costs, and First Federal evaluates the feasibility of the proposed construction project and the experience and record of the builder. Upon the completion of the appraisal or valuation and the receipt of information on the borrower’s credit history, the loan application is reviewed in accordance with First Federal’s underwriting guidelines.

Under First Federal’s current loan guidelines, if a residential or nonresidential real estate loan application is approved, First Federal usually obtains title insurance on the real estate which will secure the mortgage loan. In the past, First Federal used an attorney’s opinion for single-family loans. First Federal requires borrowers to carry satisfactory fire and casualty insurance and, if applicable, flood insurance, and to name First Federal as an insured mortgagee.

5

Loan applications for commercial loans are taken by one of First Federal’s commercial loan officers. First Federal typically obtains information from the business entity and any guarantors that includes, as applicable, personal and/or entity credit reports, tax returns, financial statements, and other documentation concerning creditworthiness. An appraisal or a valuation of the fair market value of the collateral securing the loan is typically obtained. This can take the form of officer inspection, book value, aging schedules, or borrowing base reports. Occasionally appraisals are prepared by a staff appraiser or First Federal receives an opinion by an industry field expert. Upon the completion of the appraisal or valuation and the receipt of information on the credit history of the borrower, the loan application is reviewed in accordance with First Federal’s underwriting guidelines.

Loan applications for consumer loans are taken by First Federal’s loan personnel, with the exception of some auto and boat loan applications taken by the dealers and provided to First Federal. Underwriting guidelines require that a credit report, verification of income and other documents concerning the borrower’s creditworthiness must be obtained. Additionally, an appraisal or valuation of the fair market value of the collateral securing the loan is typically obtained. Consumer loans are underwritten on the basis of the borrower’s credit history, an analysis of the borrower’s income and expenses, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan and the value of the collateral, if any.

Loan Originations, Purchases and Sales. Currently, First Federal originates both adjustable-rate and fixed-rate loans for its portfolio. First Federal sells a majority of its fixed-rate one- to four-family residential real estate loans to Freddie Mac, but retains the right to service the loans sold in exchange for a fee. During the year ended June 30, 2010, First Federal sold approximately $17.3 million in loans to Freddie Mac and sold approximately $1.0 million in loan participations to other financial institutions.

OTS regulations limit the aggregate amount that a savings association may lend to any one borrower to 15% of the association’s total capital for risk-based capital purposes, plus any loan loss reserves not already included in total capital (the “Lending Limit Capital”). A savings association may loan to one borrower an additional amount not to exceed 10% of the association’s Lending Limit Capital if the additional amount is fully secured by certain forms of “readily marketable collateral.” Real estate is not considered “readily marketable collateral.” The regulations require that loans to certain related or affiliated borrowers be aggregated when applying this limit. In addition, the OTS may permit exceptions to the lending limit on a case-by-case basis under certain circumstances.

Based on the 15% limit, First Federal was able to lend approximately $3.0 million to one borrower at June 30, 2010. The largest amount First Federal had outstanding to one borrower at June 30, 2010, was $2.4 million.

Loan Origination and Other Fees. First Federal receives loan origination fees and other fee income from its lending activities, including late payment charges, application fees and fees for other miscellaneous services. Loan origination fees and other fees are a volatile source of income, varying with the volume of lending, loan repayments and general economic conditions. All nonrefundable loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to yield over the life of the related loan.

Delinquent Loans, Nonperforming Assets and Classified Assets. First Federal strives to maintain a high level of asset quality through sound underwriting and efficient collection practices. To discourage late payments, First Federal charges a late fee of 5% of the monthly payment after 15 days for fixed-rate and most ARMs and after 30 days for some older ARMs. When a loan is 15 days or more delinquent, the borrower is sent a delinquency notice. When a loan is 60 days delinquent, First Federal usually contacts the borrower by telephone. When a loan becomes 90 days delinquent, it is generally referred to an attorney for foreclosure or collection. First Federal decides whether and when to initiate foreclosure or collection proceedings on such factors as the amount of the outstanding loan in relation to the original indebtedness, the extent of the delinquency and the borrower’s ability and willingness to cooperate in curing the delinquency. Additional measures m ay be taken to accelerate the collection process for commercial or consumer loans.

If a foreclosure or repossession occurs, the real estate or other collateral is sold at public sale and may be purchased by First Federal. Real estate acquired by First Federal as a result of foreclosure proceedings is classified as real estate owned (“REO”) until it is sold. When First Federal acquires a property, or any other collateral, it is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less estimated selling costs. First Federal records a loss provision if the collateral’s fair value substantially declines below the value determined at the recording date. In determining the lower of cost or fair value at acquisition, costs relating to development and improvement are capitalized. Costs relating to holding real estate acquired through foreclosure, net of rental income, are charged against earnings as incurred. First Federal held no REO property on June 30, 2010.

Nonperforming assets include nonaccruing loans, real estate acquired by foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, and repossessed assets. First Federal stops accruing interest on, and places on nonaccrual status, all real estate and other loans that are delinquent 90 days or more or when management determines that the collection of past due interest is unlikely. Further, interest accrual may stop before a loan is 90 days delinquent if, in management’s opinion, the collateral value is not adequate to cover the outstanding principal and interest.

OTS regulations require that each thrift institution classify its own assets on a regular basis. Problem assets are classified as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss.” “Substandard” assets have one or more defined weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. “Doubtful” assets have the same weaknesses as “substandard” assets, with the additional characteristics that (i) the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable and (ii) there is a high possibility of loss. An asset classified as “loss” is considered uncollectible and of such little value that its continuance as an asset of the institution is not warranted. If an asset, or portion thereof, is classified as loss, the association must either establish a specific allowanc e for losses for the entire portion of the asset classified as loss or charge-off such amount. OTS regulations also contain a “special mention” category, consisting of assets which do not currently expose an institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification but which possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management’s close attention. At June 30, 2010, First Federal had $2.7 million in special mention assets.

The aggregate amounts of First Federal’s classified assets at the dates indicated were as follows:

	At June 30,
	2010	2009	2008
	(In thousands)
Classified assets:
Substandard	$3,486	$1,232	$1,514
Doubtful	-	81	324
Total	$3,486	$1,313	$1,838

Federal examiners are authorized to classify an association’s assets. If the association does not agree with an examiner’s classification of an asset, it may appeal the determination to the OTS Regional Director. First Federal had no disagreements with the examiners regarding the classification of assets at the time of its last examination.

Allowance for Loan Losses. First Federal maintains an allowance for loan losses based upon a number of relevant factors, including growth and changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, trends in the level of delinquent and problem loans, loan charge-offs, current and anticipated economic conditions in First Federal’s primary lending area, past loss experience and probable losses arising from specific problem assets.

The two largest components of First Federal’s loan portfolio consist of nonresidential and land and one- to four-family residential real estate loans. Substantially all of these loans are secured by property in First Federal’s primary lending area, consisting of Tuscarawas, Holmes and some adjoining counties in Ohio, which has a fairly stable economy. First Federal’s underwriting standards and credit culture contributed to its relatively low net charge-off rate to total loans of .14% for the year ended June 30, 2010. Substantially all of First Federal’s other real estate loans, consisting of multifamily loans, are secured by properties in First Federal’s primary lending area. First Federal has not experienced any significant charge-offs from the multifamily real estate loan category in recent years. Consumer loans are a small portion of First Federal’s total loans and did not result in any significant charge-offs.

Large loans are reviewed periodically to identify potential problems at an early date. While the Bank believes that it uses the best information available to determine the allowance for loan losses, unforeseen market conditions could result in material adjustments, and net earnings could be significantly adversely affected, if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in determining the allowance.

Because the loan loss allowance is based on estimates, it is monitored quarterly and adjusted as necessary.

Investment Activities

First Federal is permitted to invest in certain commercial paper, corporate debt securities rated in one of the four highest rating categories by one or more nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, and other investments permitted by federal regulations.

First Federal maintains a $273,000 portfolio of mortgage-backed securities in the form of Freddie Mac, Ginnie Mae and Fannie Mae participation certificates. Mortgage-backed securities generally entitle First Federal to receive a portion of the cash flows from an identified pool of mortgages. Freddie Mac, Ginnie Mae and Fannie Mae securities are guaranteed by the issuing agency as to principal and interest.

Deposits and Borrowings

Deposits. Deposits have traditionally been First Federal’s primary source of funds for use in lending and other investment activities. Deposits are attracted principally from within First Federal’s primary market area by offering a broad selection of deposit instruments, including negotiable order of withdrawal (“NOW”) accounts, passbook savings accounts, health savings accounts, individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”) and certificates of deposit (“CDs”). Interest rates paid, maturity terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties for the various types of accounts are established periodically by First Federal’s management based on liquidity requirements, growth goals and competition. First Federal does not use brokers to attract deposits. First Federal’s lending activities have also contributed to deposit growth due to its focus on developing relationships with commercial borrowers.

At June 30, 2010, First Federal’s CDs totaled $96.3 million, or 56.2% of total deposits. Of this amount, approximately $61.0 million mature within one year. Based on past experience and First Federal’s prevailing pricing strategies, management believes that a substantial percentage of these CDs will renew with First Federal at maturity. If there is a significant deviation from historical experience, First Federal can utilize borrowings from the FHLB as an alternative to this source of funds, although the cost of such borrowings might be greater.

The following table shows the dollar amount of deposits in the various types of accounts offered by First Federal at the dates indicated:

Borrowings.First Federal’s primary alternative source of funds is FHLB advances. First Federal is a member of the FHLB of Cincinnati and must maintain an investment in the capital stock of that FHLB in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of First Federal’s residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts and similar obligations at the beginning of each year, and (ii) 5% of its outstanding advances from the FHLB. First Federal complied with this requirement at June 30, 2010, with an investment in stock of the FHLB of Cincinnati of $2.4 million.

FHLB advances are secured by collateral in one or more of the following categories: (i) fully-disbursed, whole first mortgage loans on improved residential property or securities representing a whole interest in such loans; (ii) securities issued, insured, or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or an agency thereof; (iii) deposits in any FHLB; or (iv) other real estate related collateral acceptable to the FHLB, if such collateral has a readily ascertainable value and the FHLB can perfect its security interest in the collateral. At June 30, 2010, First Federal had $13.7 million of outstanding FHLB advances.

FFD entered into a Commercial Loan Agreement on February 25, 2010, with The Home Loan Savings Bank permitting borrowings by FFD up to an aggregate principal amount of $2.0 million. At June 30, 2010, FFD had $630,000 in borrowings outstanding under this line of credit.

Competition

First Federal competes for deposits with other savings associations, commercial banks, credit unions, brokerage firms and with the issuers of commercial paper and other securities, such as shares in money market mutual funds. The primary factors in competing for deposits are interest rates, convenience and availability of funds and related penalties. In making loans, First Federal competes with other savings associations, commercial banks, consumer finance companies, credit unions, leasing companies, mortgage companies and other lenders. First Federal competes for loan originations primarily through the interest rates and loan fees offered and through the efficiency and quality of services provided. Competition is affected by, among other things, the general availability of lendable funds, general and local economic conditions, current interest rate levels and other factors which are not readily predictable.

Subsidiaries

First Federal owns all of the outstanding shares of Dover Service Corporation (“DSC”). DSC was originally incorporated for the primary purpose of holding shares in First Federal’s data processing provider, Intrieve, Incorporated (“Intrieve”). In April 2005, Intrieve was acquired by Harland Financial Solutions, Inc. DSC’s only asset is approximately $379,000 in proceeds it received for its Intrieve shares, which are held in a savings account at First Federal. The net book value of First Federal’s investment in DSC at June 30, 2010, was approximately $15,000.

Personnel

At June 30, 2010, First Federal had 52 full-time equivalent employees. First Federal believes that relations with its employees are good. First Federal offers health, disability, life insurance and retirement benefits. None of First Federal’s employees is represented by a collective bargaining unit.

REGULATION

General

As a savings and loan holding company, FFD is subject to regulation, examination and oversight by the OTS and submits periodic reports to the OTS concerning its activities and financial condition. As an Ohio corporation, FFD is subject to provisions of the Ohio Revised Code applicable to corporations. FFD is also subject to regulation by the SEC.

First Federal is a federal savings association and is subject to examination and regulatory oversight by the OTS extending to all aspects of its operations. Because its deposits are FDIC insured, First Federal is also subject to examination and regulation by the FDIC. First Federal is also subject to certain requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board (the “FRB”). First Federal must file periodic reports with the OTS concerning its activities and financial condition. Examinations are conducted periodically by the OTS and the FDIC to determine whether First Federal is in compliance with various regulatory requirements and is operating in a safe and sound manner. The federal regulations and supervision to which FFD and First Federal are subject are intended for the protection of depositors, and not for the purpose of protecting shareholders.

14

Recently Enacted Regulatory Reform

On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Return and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank”). Dodd-Frank imposes new restrictions and an expanded framework of regulatory oversight for financial institutions, including depository institutions. In addition, the Dodd-Frank changes the jurisdictions of existing bank regulatory agencies, and in particular transfers the regulation of federal savings associations from the OTS to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”), effective one year from the effective date of the legislation, with a potential extension up to six months. Savings and loan holding companies will be regulated by the FRB. Dodd-Frank also establishes an independent federal consumer protection bureau within the FRB. The following discussion summarizes significant aspects of the new law that may affect FFD and First Federal:

•

The OTS will be merged into the OCC and the authority of the remaining bank regulatory agencies will be restructured.;

•

A new independent consumer financial protection bureau will be established within the FRB, empowered to exercise broad regulatory, supervisory and enforcement authority with respect to both new and existing consumer financial protection laws;

•

New capital regulations for thrift holding companies will be adopted and any new trust preferred securities will no longer count toward Tier 1 capital;

•

The current prohibition on the payment of interest on demand deposits will be repealed, effective July 21, 2011;

•

The standard maximum amount of deposit insurance per customer is permanently increased to $250,000 and non-interest bearing transaction accounts will have unlimited deposit insurance through December 31, 2012;

•

The deposit insurance assessment base calculation will be expanded to equal a depository institution’s total assets minus the sum of its average tangible equity during the assessment period; and

•

New corporate governance requirements applicable generally to all public companies in all industries will require new compensation practices, including, but not limited to, requiring companies to “claw back” incentive compensation under certain circumstances, to provide shareholders the opportunity to cast a non-binding vote on executive compensation , to consider the independence of compensation advisors and new executive compensation disclosure requirements.

Many provisions of Dodd-Frank will not be implemented immediately and will require interpretation and rule making by federal regulators. FFD and First Federal are closely monitoring all relevant sections of Dodd- Frank to ensure continued compliance with laws and regulations. While the ultimate effect of Dodd- Frank on FFD and First Federal cannot yet be determined, the law is likely to result in increased compliance costs and fees paid to regulators, along with possible restrictions on FFD’s and First Federal’s operations.

Office of Thrift Supervision Regulations

General. The OTS is responsible for the regulation and supervision of all federally-chartered savings associations and all other FDIC insured savings associations (see the above section on Recently Enacted Regulatory Reform). The OTS regulates the operation of savings associations, regularly examines such associations and imposes assessments on savings associations based on their asset size to cover the costs of general supervision and examination. The OTS also may initiate enforcement actions against savings associations and certain persons affiliated with them for violations of laws or regulations or for engaging in unsafe or unsound practices. In certain circumstances, the OTS may appoint a conservator or receiver for a savings association.

Savings associations are subject to various consumer protection and fair lending laws. These laws govern, among other things, truth-in-lending and truth-in-savings disclosures, equal credit opportunity, fair credit reporting and community reinvestment. Community reinvestment regulations evaluate how well and to what extent an association lends and invests in its designated service area, with particular emphasis on low- to moderate-income communities and borrowers in those areas. Failure to abide by federal laws and regulations governing community reinvestment could limit the ability of an association to open a new branch or engage in a merger.

15

Regulatory Capital Requirements. OTS regulations require First Federal to meet certain minimum capital requirements. All savings associations must have tangible capital of 1.5% of adjusted total assets, core capital of 4% of adjusted total assets (except for associations with the highest examination rating and acceptable levels of risk) and risk-based capital equal to 8% of risk-weighted assets. At June 30, 2010, First Federal exceeded these requirements with tangible capital of 8.9%, core capital of 8.9% and total risk-based capital of 12.0%.

The OTS has adopted regulations governing prompt corrective action to address capital deficient and otherwise troubled savings associations. At each successively lower defined capital category, an association is subject to more restrictive operations and limits, and the OTS has less flexibility in determining how to resolve the institution’s problems. If an institution becomes critically undercapitalized, it will be subject to conservatorship or receivership.

Limitations on Capital Distributions. Federal law prohibits a savings association from making a capital distribution if, after the distribution, the association would be undercapitalized. Capital distributions include payments of cash dividends, stock repurchases and certain other acquisitions by an association of its shares and payments to stockholders of another association in an acquisition of such other association.

A subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company must file a notice or an application with the OTS before it can pay a dividend. An application must be filed if (i) the proposed distribution would cause the savings association’s total distributions for the calendar year to exceed its net income for that year to date plus its retained net income for the preceding two years; (ii) the savings association will not be at least adequately capitalized following the capital distribution; or (iii) the proposed distribution would violate a prohibition contained in any applicable statute, regulation or agreement between the savings association and the OTS or the FDIC, or violate a condition imposed on the savings association in an OTS-approved application or notice. If a savings association subsidiary of a holding company is not required to file an application, it must file a dividend notice with the OTS.

Qualified Thrift Lender Test. If a savings association fails to meet one of the two tests to be a qualified thrift lender (“QTL”), the association and its holding company become subject to certain operating and regulatory restrictions. The first test requires a savings association to maintain a specified level of investments in assets that are designated as qualifying thrift investments (“QTIs”). Generally, QTIs are assets related to domestic residential real estate and manufactured housing and include credit card, student and small business loans and certain securities. The second test permits a savings association to qualify as a QTL if at least 60% of such institution’s assets consist of specified types of property, including cash, loans secured by residential real estate or deposits, educational loans and certain governmental obligations. The OTS may grant exceptions to the QTL tests under certain circumstances. At June 30, 2010 , First Federal was a QTL.

Transactions with Insiders and Affiliates. Loans to executive officers, directors and principal shareholders and their related interests must conform to the lending limit, and the total of such loans cannot exceed the association’s Lending Limit Capital. Most loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders must be approved in advance by a majority of the “disinterested” directors of the association, with any “interested” director not participating. All loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders must be made on terms substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions with the general public or as offered to all employees in a company-wide benefit program. Loans to executive officers are subject to additional restrictions. First Federal complied with these restrictions at June 30, 2010.

All transactions between savings associations and their affiliates must comply with Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and the FRB’s Regulation W. An affiliate of a savings association is any company or entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the savings association. FFD is an affiliate of First Federal. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B and Regulation W (i) limit the extent to which a savings association or its subsidiaries may engage in “covered transactions” with any one affiliate up to an amount equal to 10% of the institution’s capital stock and surplus, (ii) limit the aggregate of all covered transactions with all affiliates up to an amount equal to 20% of capital stock and surplus, and (iii) require that all such transactions be on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the association, as those provided in transactions with a non-affiliate. The term “covered transaction ” includes making loans and extending credit, purchasing assets, accepting securities issued by an affiliate as collateral, issuing a guarantee and other similar types of transactions. In addition, a savings association may not make any loan or other extension of credit to an affiliate unless the affiliate is engaged only in activities permissible for a bank holding company and may not purchase or invest in securities of any affiliate except shares of a subsidiary. First Federal complied with these requirements and restrictions at June 30, 2010.

16

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation

First Federal’s deposit accounts are insured by the FDIC up to applicable limits. The FDIC has examination authority over all insured depository institutions, including First Federal, and has authority to initiate enforcement actions if the FDIC does not believe the OTS has taken appropriate action related to First Federal to safeguard the safety and soundness and the deposit insurance fund.

The FDIC is required to maintain designated levels of reserves and may increase assessment rates to restore the ratio of reserves to insured deposits to its target level, and may decrease such rates if such target level has been met. These reserves are established and replenished through premiums paid by FDIC insured institutions. The current system provides for quarterly payments, the amounts of which are determined by the risk the institution poses to the deposit insurance fund. The risk level is determined based on the institution’s capital level and the FDIC’s level of supervisory concern about the institution. In December 2009, the FDIC required institutions to prepay their estimated premiums for the following 13 quarters. The FDIC may also impose special assessments on insured institutions, has done so in the recent past and may do so in the future.

Dodd-Frank permanently increased deposit insurance on most accounts to $250,000. The FDIC previously implemented two temporary programs to provide deposit insurance for the full amount of most noninterest bearing transaction deposit accounts through the end of 2010. Insured institutions had the opportunity to opt-out of this additional coverage; First Federal did not do so and paid an additional insurance charge of 10 basis points (on an annual basis) on all deposit amounts in excess of $250,000. Effective December 31, 2010 and continuing through December 31, 2012, Dodd- Frank provides for unlimited insurance coverage on noninterest bearing transaction accounts at all insured institutions. There will be no additional premiums specifically related to this coverage, and institutions will not have the ability to opt-out.

If the FDIC determines that an institution has engaged or is engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, order or any condition imposed by an agreement with the FDIC, the FDIC may permanently terminate insurance on the institution, and may suspend it during hearings regarding the potential termination. If FDIC insurance is terminated, accounts at the institution at the time of the termination, less subsequent withdrawals, will continue to be insured for a period of six months to two years, as determined by the FDIC. Management is aware of no existing circumstances which would result in termination of First Federal’s deposit insurance.

FRB Reserve Requirements

FRB regulations currently require that savings associations maintain average daily reserves of 3% of net transaction accounts up to $55.2 million (subject to an exemption of up to $10.7 million), and of 10% of net transaction accounts in excess of $55.2 million. At June 30, 2010, First Federal complied with its reserve requirements.

Holding Company Regulation

FFD is a registered savings and loan holding company. FFD generally has no restrictions on its activities, although this broad latitude may be restricted by the OTS if it determines that an activity constitutes a serious risk to the financial safety, soundness or stability of First Federal or if First Federal fails to qualify as a QTL. The OTS may impose restrictions it deems necessary to address any such risk, including limiting (i) payment of dividends by the savings association, (ii) transactions between the savings association and its affiliates, and (iii) any activities of the savings association that might create a serious risk that the liabilities of the holding company and its affiliates may be imposed on the savings association.

Federal law generally prohibits a savings and loan holding company from controlling any other savings association or savings and loan holding company, or from acquiring or retaining more than 5% of the voting shares of a savings association or holding company which is not a subsidiary, without prior OTS approval. Under certain circumstances, a holding company is permitted to acquire, with OTS approval, up to 15% of the previously unissued voting shares of an undercapitalized savings association for cash without such savings association being deemed to be controlled by the holding company.

Ohio Corporation Law

Merger Moratorium Statute. Chapter 1704 of the Ohio Revised Code regulates certain takeover bids affecting public corporations with significant ties to Ohio. The statute prohibits, with some exceptions, mergers, combinations and certain other sales, distributions, dividends, or other transactions between an Ohio corporation and any person who has the right to exercise, alone or with others, 10% or more of the voting power of such corporation (an “Interested Shareholder”) for three years following the date on which such person first becomes an Interested Shareholder. Such a transaction is permitted only if, prior to the time the person first becomes an Interested Shareholder, the board of directors has approved the purchase of shares that resulted in such person first becoming an Interested Shareholder.

After the initial three-year moratorium, such a transaction may not occur unless (i) one of the specified exceptions applies (ii) the holders of two-thirds of the voting shares, and a majority of the voting shares not beneficially owned by the Interested Shareholders, approve the transaction at a meeting called for such purpose; or (iii) the transaction meets certain statutory criteria designed to ensure that the issuing public corporation’s remaining shareholders receive fair consideration for their shares.

Control Share Acquisition Statute. Section 1701.831 of the Ohio Revised Code (the “Control Share Acquisition Statute”) requires that, with certain exceptions, acquisitions of shares which would result in the acquiring shareholder owning 20%, 33 1/3%, or 50% of the outstanding shares of an Ohio corporation (a “Control Share Acquisition”) must be approved in advance by (i) the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation represented at a meeting at which a quorum is present, and (ii) a majority of the portion of the outstanding voting shares represented at the meeting, excluding the voting shares owned by the acquiring shareholder, by certain other persons who acquire or transfer voting shares after public announcement of the acquisition or by certain officers of the corporation or directors of the corporation who are employees of the corporation.

Federal Regulation of Acquisitions of Control of FFD and First Federal

Federal law generally requires regulatory approval of acquisitions at specified levels. Under applicable federal law and regulations, no person, directly or indirectly, or acting in concert with others, may acquire control of First Federal or FFD without 60 days’ prior notice to the OTS. “Control” is generally defined as having more than 25% ownership or voting power; however, ownership or voting power of more than 10% may be deemed “control” if certain factors exist. If the acquisition of control is by a company, the acquiror must obtain OTS approval of the acquisition. In addition, OTS approval must be obtained for any merger involving FFD or First Federal.

Federal Taxation

FFD and First Federal are each subject to the federal tax laws and regulations which apply to corporations generally. In addition to the regular income tax, FFD and First Federal may be subject to the alternative minimum tax which is imposed at a minimum tax rate of 20% on “alternative minimum taxable income” (which is the sum of a corporation’s regular taxable income, with certain adjustments, and tax preference items), less any available exemption. In addition, 75% of the amount by which a corporation’s “adjusted current earnings” exceeds its alternative minimum taxable income computed without regard to preference items and prior to reduction by net operating losses, is included in alternative minimum taxable income. Net operating losses can offset no more than 90% of alternative minimum taxable income. The alternative minimum tax is imposed to the extent it exceeds the corporation’s regular income tax. Payments of alternative minim um tax may be used as credits against regular tax liabilities in future years.

Certain thrift institutions, such as First Federal, are allowed deductions for bad debts under methods more favorable than those granted to other taxpayers. Qualified thrift institutions may compute deductions for bad debts using either the specific charge-off method of Section 166 of the Code or the experience method of Section 593 of the Code. The experience method is also available to small banks. Under the experience method, a thrift institution is generally allowed a deduction for an addition to its bad debt reserve equal to the greater of (i) an amount based on its actual average experience for losses in the current and five preceding taxable years, or (ii) an amount necessary to restore the reserve to its balance as of the close of the base year. Thrift institutions that are treated as small banks are allowed to utilize the experience method applicable to such institutions, while thrift institutions that are treated as large banks are required to use only the sp ecific charge off method.

18

A thrift institution required to change its method of computing reserves for bad debt will treat such change as a change in the method of accounting, initiated by the taxpayer and having been made with the consent of the Secretary of the Treasury. Section 481(a) of the Code requires certain amounts to be recaptured with respect to such change. Generally, the amounts to be recaptured will be determined solely with respect to the “applicable excess reserves” of the taxpayer. The amount of the applicable excess reserves will be taken into account ratably over a six-taxable year period, commencing with the first taxable year beginning after 1995, subject to the residential loan requirement described below. In the case of a thrift institution that is treated as a large bank, the amount of the institution’s applicable excess reserves generally is the excess of (i) the balances of its reserve for losses on qualifying real property loans (generally loans secured by improved real estate) and its reserve for losses on nonqualifying loans (all other types of loans) as of the close of its last taxable year beginning before January 1, 1996, over (ii) the balances of such reserves as of the close of its last taxable year beginning before January 1, 1988 (i.e., the “pre-1988 reserves”). In the case of a thrift institution that is treated as a small bank, like First Federal, the amount of the institution’s applicable excess reserves generally is the excess of (i) the balances of its reserve for losses on qualifying real property loans and its reserve for losses on nonqualifying loans as of the close of its last taxable year beginning before January 1, 1996, over (ii) the greater of the balance of (a) its pre-1988 reserves or (b) what the thrift’s reserves would have been at the close of its last year beginning before January 1, 1996, had the thrift always used the experience method.

The balance of the pre-1988 reserves is subject to the provisions of Section 593(e), which require recapture in the case of certain excessive distributions to shareholders. The pre-1988 reserves may not be utilized for payment of cash dividends or other distributions to a shareholder (including distributions in dissolution or liquidation) or for any other purpose (except to absorb bad debt losses). Distribution of a cash dividend by a thrift institution to a shareholder is treated as made: first, out of the institution’s post-1951 accumulated earnings and profits; second, out of the pre-1988 reserves; third, out of supplemental reserves for losses on loans; and fourth, out of such other accounts as may be proper. To the extent a distribution by First Federal to FFD is deemed paid out of its pre-1988 reserves or supplemental reserves under these rules, the pre-1988 reserves or supplemental reserves would be reduced and First Federal’s gross income for tax purp oses would be increased by the amount which, when reduced by the income tax, if any, attributable to the inclusion of such amount in its gross income, equals the amount deemed paid out of the pre-1988 reserves or supplemental reserves. As of June 30, 2010, First Federal’s pre-1988 reserves totaled approximately $1.65 million. See Notes 1 and 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

First Federal’s tax returns have been audited or closed without audit through 2005. In the opinion of management, any examination of open returns would not result in a deficiency which could have a material adverse effect on First Federal’s financial condition.

Ohio Taxation

FFD is subject to the Ohio corporation franchise tax, which, as applied to FFD, is a tax measured by both net earnings and net worth. The rate of tax is the greater of (i) 5.1% on the first $50,000 of computed Ohio taxable income and 8.5% of computed Ohio taxable income in excess of $50,000 or (ii) 0.4% of taxable net worth. However, FFD may elect to be a “qualifying holding company” and as such be exempt from the net worth tax. A corporation franchise tax based solely on net earnings would still apply. To be exempt, FFD must satisfy all of the requirements of the applicable statute. FFD made such an election for fiscal 2010.

First Federal is a “financial institution” for Ohio tax purposes. As such, it is subject to the Ohio corporate franchise tax on “financial institutions,” which is imposed at a rate of 1.3% of the taxable book net worth plus certain reserve adjustments and exemptions. As a “financial institution,” First Federal is not subject to any tax based upon net income or net profits imposed by the State of Ohio.

Ohio imposes a commercial activity tax on gross receipts in excess of $150,000; however, gross receipts of financial institutions and their holding companies are exempt from this tax.

FFD has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all officers, directors and employees that complies with SEC and NASDAQ requirements. A copy of FFD’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics may be obtained without charge upon written request to FFD’s Secretary at 321 North Wooster Avenue, Dover, Ohio 44622.

Item 11.

Item 12.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

The information contained in the Proxy Statement under the captions“OWNERSHIP OF FFD SHARES” is incorporated herein by reference.

FFD currently maintains the FFD Financial Corporation 1996 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “1996 Plan”) and the FFD Financial Corporation 2002 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Directors Plan”). For additional information regarding the 1996 Plan and the Directors Plan, see Note 10 to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Annual Report.

22

The following table shows for the 1996 Plan and the Directors Plan the (a) number of common shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, (b) the weighted average exercise price of those stock options, and (c) the number of common shares remaining for future issuance at June 30, 2010, excluding shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options. The 1996 Plan has been previously approved by the shareholders; the Directors Plan has not.

	(a)	(b)	(c)
Plan Category	Number of securities to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options	Weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options	Number of securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans (excluding securities reflected in column (a))
Equity compensation plans approved by security holders (the 1996 Plan) (1)	10,625	$12.78	--
Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders (the Directors Plan) (2)	8,945	$10.10	3,305
Total	19,570	$11.56	3,305

(1)

On October 8, 2006, the 1996 Plan expired as to new awards and, as a result, no shares remain available for future awards under such plan.

(2)

The Board adopted the Directors Plan because certain restrictions then contained in the 1996 Plan prevented any future option grants to directors under the 1996 Plan. Because a grant of options to a new director was not possible under the 1996 Plan, the Board adopted the Directors Plan in order to award options to Leonard L. Gundy upon his election as a director at the 2002 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. There were 12,250 options authorized for issuance under the Directors Plan, of which 8,945 are presently outstanding. As of September 23, 2010, no options granted under the Directors Plan have been exercised. Because of the small number of options available under the Directors Plan, shareholder approval of the plan was not required under NASDAQ rules applicable at the time.Options granted under the Directors Plan are non-qualified stock options and the option exercise price of each option granted under the Directors Plan must be at least 100 % of the “fair market value” (as defined in the Directors Plan) of FFD’s common shares on the date of the grant.

Item 13.
