PS FINANCIAL, INC.CHICAGO ILLINOISNOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
All of the outstanding options at June 30, 2001 and 2000 relate to options granted in 1997 at an exercise price of $14.00. In January 1998, the Company paid a special dividend which resulted in a change in equity structure. This event allowed the Company to modify the stock option agreements to adjust the exercise price to $11.02, which was an adjustment in direct proportion to the decrease in exercise price as compared to market value as a result of the change in equity structure. The Company's stock awards were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months or six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 because to do so would have been antidilutive.
NOTE 3 - PS FINANCIAL, INC. - PNA HOLDING COMPANY MERGER
On June 13, 2001 PS Financial, Inc. (PS Financial) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Agreement") with PNA Holding Company ("PNA"). Under the terms of the Agreement, PS Financial will be merged into a subsidiary of PNA, all shares of PS Financial will be canceled, and PNA will pay $14.00 per share in cash for each of the 1,255,067 outstanding shares of the PS Financial's common stock. Each option to purchase PS Financial's common stock shall be converted into the right to receive, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between $14.00 and the exercise price of the option.
As a result of the merger, Alliance FSB, a wholly owned subsidiary of PNA, will merge with and into Preferred Savings Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of PS Financial. Upon consummation of the Merger, Preferred Savings Bank will change its name to Alliance, FSB. The aggregate purchase price for the transaction (including cash payments for the cancellation of options) is approximately $18.0 million. The transaction will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Consummation of the merger is subject to approval by PS Financial's shareholders and the receipt of all required regulatory approvals. It is anticipated that the transaction will be completed around September 30, 2001.

PS FINANCIAL, INC.CHICAGO ILLINOISMANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OFFINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000Total assets decreased $8.9 million to $105.2 million at June 30, 2001 from $114.1 million at December 31, 2000, due mainly to decreases in net loans receivable of $3.7 million and securities available-for-sale of $7.4 million, partially offset by an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $2.3 million.
The Company's net loans receivable decreased by $3.7 million to $64.2 million at June 30, 2001 from $67.9 million at December 31, 2000 as principal paydowns were used to repay maturing higher yielding deposits. Securities available-for-sale (including equity and mortgage-backed securities) decreased by $7.4 million to $33.3 million at June 30, 2001 from $40.7 million at December 31, 2000. During the period, $18.9 million in securities were called of which approximately $11.1 million were reinvested in lower yielding short term U. S. Treasury equity funds. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $2.3 million to $3.7 million at June 30, 2001 from $1.3 million at December 31, 2000.
Total liabilities at June 30, 2001 were $89.2 million compared to $98.1 million at December 31, 2000, a decrease of $8.9 million. The decrease was due mainly to a $5.9 million decrease in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank and other borrowings with the intent to increase the net interest spread and margin in the long term. Deposits also decreased by $3.0 million to $57.6 million at June 30, 2001 from $60.6 million at December 31, 2000, as higher paying term deposits were not renewed as interest rates decreased.
Stockholders' equity at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 was $16.0 million. During the period, the purchase of $354,000 of treasury stock and payment of regular dividends totaling $383,000 were partially offset by a $315,000 decrease in the unrealized loss on securities available-for-sale and net income of $433,000.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000.GeneralNet earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2001 were $188,000, a decrease of $64,000, or 25.4%, from net earnings of $252,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a decrease in net interest spread and the net interest margin, a decrease of $9.4 million in the average assets from June 30, 2000 to June 30, 2001, and the prepayment of $5.0 million in FHLB advances resulting in prepayment penalties of $130,000.

PS FINANCIAL, INC.CHICAGO ILLINOISMANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OFFINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Interest IncomeInterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was $1.8 million compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000, a decrease of $396,000, or 18.4%. The decrease in interest income was the result of a decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets due primarily to $18.9 million of securities called in 2001 that were reinvested in lower yielding securities, as well as an $8.3 million decrease in average interest earning assets from June 30, 2000 to June 30, 2001.
Interest ExpenseInterest expense for the three month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 was $1.3 million. Interest bearing liabilities decreased $11.9 million from June 30, 2000 to June 30, 2001, the Company incurred prepayment penalties of $130,000 related to the prepayment of $5.0 million in FHLB advances in 2001. This resulted in a decrease in the net interest margin at June 30, 2001 to 1.74% from 3.03% at June 30, 2000.
Provision for Loan LossesThe Bank's provision for loan losses was zero for the three months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $8,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. At June 30, 2001, the Bank's allowance for loan losses totaled $281,000, or 0.4% of total loans. The amount of the provision and allowance for losses on loans is influenced by current economic conditions, actual loss experience, industry trends and other factors, such as adverse economic conditions, including declining real estate values, in the Bank's market area. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to provide additions to the allowance based upon judgments which differ from those of management. The absence of a loan loss provision for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was indicative of management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, given the trends in historical loss experience of the portfolio and current economic conditions, as well as the fact that the majority of loans are single-family residential loans and the loan-to-values are generally less than 80%. Although management uses the best information available, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions that may be beyond the Bank's control.
Past due loan balances, delinquent greater than 30 days, at June 30, 2001 decreased to $3.4 million compared to $4.1 million at June 30, 2000. Included in the past due loan balances are non-accruing loans at June 30, 2001 which totaled $231,000 compared to $532,000 at June 30, 2000.

PS FINANCIAL, INC.CHICAGO ILLINOISMANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OFFINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Noninterest IncomeNoninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was a $147,000 compared to a loss of $11,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was primarily due to a net $125,000 gain on the sale of securities in 2001, partially offset by a $12,000 decrease in other noninterest income, which included $9,000 from the gain on sale of foreclosed assets in 2000.
Noninterest ExpenseNoninterest expense was $500,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $488,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, an increase of $12,000. The increase was primarily a result of a $17,000 increase in compensation expense and a $16,000 increase in other operating expenses relating to the Company's pending merger discussed in Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, partially offset by a $24,000 decrease in professional fees related to the proxy contest at the 2000 annual meeting.
Income TaxesIncome taxes were a net benefit of $83,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $107,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, a decrease of $190,000, or 177.5%. The decrease was primarily the result of the utilization of capital loss carryforwards not previously recognized, combined with a $254,000 decrease in pretax earnings.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 and June30, 2000.GeneralNet earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were $433,000, a decrease of $205,000, or 32.1%, from net earnings of $638,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a decrease in net interest spread and the net interest margin, a decrease of $9.4 million in average assets from June 30, 2000 to June 30, 2001 and the prepayment of $5.0 million in FHLB advances resulting in prepayment penalties of $130,000, partially offset by a $152,000 net gain on the sale of securities.
Interest IncomeInterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $3.8 million compared to $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, a decrease of $632,000, or 14.3%. The decrease in interest income was the result of a decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets due primarily to $18.9 million of securities called in 2001, that were reinvested in lower yielding securities, as well as an $8.3 million decrease in average interest earning assets from June 30, 2000 to June 30, 2001.

Interest ExpenseInterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $2.6 million compared to $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, an increase of $23,000, or 0.9%. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to the payment of $130,000 in prepayment penalties related to the prepayment of $5.0 million in FHLB advances, which was partially offset by a $8.6 million decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000, as well as a decrease in the Company's cost of funds due to a decrease in short term deposit rates.
Provision for Loan LossesThe Bank's provision for loan losses was zero for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $15,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. At June 30, 2001, the Bank's allowance for loan losses totaled $281,000, or 0.4% of total loans. The amount of the provision and allowance for losses on loans is influenced by current economic conditions, actual loss experience, industry trends and other factors, such as adverse economic conditions, including declining real estate values, in the Bank's market area. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to provide additions to the allowance based upon judgments which differ from those of management. The absence of a loan loss provision for
the six months ended June 30, 2001 was indicative of management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, given the trends in historical loss experience of the portfolio and current economic conditions, as well as the fact that the majority of loans are single-family residential loans and the loan-to-values are generally less than 80%. Although management uses the best information available, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions that may be beyond the Bank's control.
Noninterest IncomeNoninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $197,000 compared to a loss of $32,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was primarily due to a $255,000 gain on the sale of securities in 2001 compared to a $103,000 loss in 2000, partially offset by a $26,000 decrease in other income, including $18,000 from the gain on sale of foreclosed assets in 2000.
Noninterest ExpenseNoninterest expense was $935,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $924,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, an increase of $11,000. The increase was primarily a result of a $23,000 increase in compensation expense and an $11,000 increase in data processing expense, partially offset by a $33,000 decrease in professional fees related to the proxy contest at the 2000 annual meeting.

Income TaxesIncome taxes were $39,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to $256,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, a decrease of $217,000, or 84.8%. The decrease was primarily a result of the utilization of capital loss carryforwards not previously recognized, combined with a $254,000 decrease in pretax earnings.
Asset/Liability ManagementIn an attempt to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates, management monitors the Company's interest rate risk. The Board of Directors meets at least quarterly to review the Company's interest rate risk position and profitability. The Board of Directors also reviews the Company's portfolio, formulates investment strategies and oversees the timing and implementation of transactions to assure attainment of the Company's objectives in the most effective manner. In addition, the Board reviews on a quarterly basis the Company's asset/liability position, including simulations of the effect on the Company's capital of various interest rate scenarios.
In managing its asset/liability mix, PS Financial, depending on the relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and consumer preference, often places more emphasis on managing net interest margin than on better matching the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities in an effort to enhance net interest income. Management believes that the increased net interest income resulting from a mismatch in the maturity of its asset and liability portfolios can, during periods of declining or stable interest rates, provide high enough returns to justify the increased exposure to sudden and unexpected increases in interest rates.
The Company's interest rate risk decreased during the twelve months ended March 31, 2001 (most recent available) due to decreases in the average remaining maturity of the Company's fixed income securities and net loans receivable. Management has taken a number of steps to limit to some extent its interest rate risk. First, the Company focuses its fixed rate loan originations on loans with maturities of 15 years or less. At June 30, 2001, $48.7 million, or 95.9% of the Company's one- to four family residential loan portfolio consisted of fixed rate loans having original terms to maturity of 15 years or less. Second, the Company offers balloon loans of 10 years or less in an attempt to decrease its asset/liability mismatch. Third, the Company has maintained a mortgage-backed securities portfolio with adjustable-rates. At June 30, 2001, adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities totaled $4.3 million which represented 4.2% of interest-earning assets. Finally, the Company has attempted to reinvest the proceeds of most of its borrowings into assets with maturities which are anticipated to be similar to those of its borrowings.

Generally, the investment policy of the Company is to invest funds among various categories of investments and maturities based upon the Company's need for liquidity, to achieve the proper balance between its desire to minimize risk and maximize yield, to provide collateral for borrowings, and to fulfill the Company's asset/liability management policies. Investments generally include interest-bearing deposits in other federally insured financial institutions, FHLB stock, U.S. Government securities and municipal securities and equity securities.
PS Financial's cost of funds responds to changes in interest rates due to the relatively short-term nature of its deposit portfolio. Consequently, the results of operations are heavily influenced by the levels of short-term interest rates. PS Financial offers a range of maturities on its deposit products at competitive rates and monitors the maturities on an ongoing basis.
An approach used by management to quantify interest rate risk is net portfolio value ("NPV") analysis. In essence, this approach calculates the difference between the present value of liabilities, expected cash flows from assets and cash flows from off balance sheet contracts. The following table sets forth, at March 31, 2001, an analysis of the Bank's interest rate risk as measured by the estimated changes in NPV resulting from instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve (+/-300 basis points, measured in 100 basis point increments).

Certain assumptions utilized in assessing interest rate risk were employed in preparing the preceding table. These assumptions relate to interest rates, loan prepayment rates, deposit decay rates, and the market values of certain assets under the various interest rate scenarios. It was also assumed that delinquency rates will not change as a result of changes in interest rates although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. Even if interest rates change in the designated amounts, there can be no assurance that the Bank's assets and liabilities would perform as set forth above. In addition, a change in U.S. Treasury rates in the designated amounts accompanied by a change in the shape of the Treasury yield curve would cause significantly different changes to the NPV than indicated above.
