Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the nine and three month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine and three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited financial statements have been included.  The results of operations for the nine and three month periods ended December 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

Critical Accounting Policy – The Company’s critical accounting policy relates to the allowance for loan losses.  The Company has established a systematic method of periodically reviewing the credit quality of the loan portfolio in order to establish a sufficient allowance for loan losses.  The allowance for loan losses is based on management’s current judgments about the credit quality of individual loans and segments of the loan portfolio.  The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision, and considers all known internal and external factors that affect loan collectibility as of the reporting date.  Such evaluation, which included a review of all loans on which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable value or the fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, management’s knowledge of inherent risks in the portfolio that are probable and reasonably estimable and other factors that warrant recognition in providing an appropriate loan loss allowance.  Management has discussed the development and selection of this critical accounting policy with the audit committee of the Board of Directors.

Use of Estimates– The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 2: Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include Wayne Savings Bancshares, Inc. and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Wayne Savings Community Bank (“Wayne Savings” or the “Bank”).

Wayne Savings has eleven banking locations in Wayne, Holmes, Ashland, Medina and Stark counties.  All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the nine and three month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006

Note 3: Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, less shares in the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) that are unallocated and not committed to be released.  Diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive effect of all additional potential common shares issuable under the Company’s stock option plan.  The computations are as follows:

	For the nine months ended				For the three months ended
	December 31,				December 31,
	2007		2006		2007		2006
Weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic)		3,061,671		3,209,885		3,027,848		3,239,078
Dilutive effect of assumed exercise of stock options		–		7,315		–		5,010
Weighted-average common shares outstanding (diluted)		3,061,671		3,217,200		3,027,848		3,244,088

None of the outstanding options were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the nine or three month periods ended December 31, 2007 as the average fair value of the shares was less than the option exercise prices.  All of  the outstanding options were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three and nine month periods ended in  December 31, 2006.

Note 4: Stock Option Plan

The Company maintains a 1993 incentive Stock Option Plan that provided for the issuance of 196,390 shares of authorized common stock, as adjusted, with no options outstanding at December 31, 2007.  In fiscal 2004, the Company adopted a new Stock Option Plan that provided for the issuance of 142,857 incentive options and 61,224 non-incentive options with respect to authorized common stock.  As of December 31, 2007, all options under the 2004 Plan have been granted and (excluding forfeited options), are subject to exercise at the discretion of the grantees, and will expire in fiscal 2014 unless otherwise exercised or forfeited.

The Company accounts for the stock plan in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), “Share Based Payment.”  SFAS No. 123(R) requires the recognition of compensation expense related to stock option awards based on the fair value of the option award at the grant date.  Compensation cost is then recognized over the vesting period.  There were no options granted during each of the nine and three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.  There was no compensation expense recognized for the stock option plan during the nine month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, as all options were fully vested prior to these periods.

Note 5: Recent Accounting Developments

In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – an amendment of SFAS No. 140,” to simplify the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. Specifically, SFAS No. 156 amends SFAS No. 140 to require an entity to take the following steps:

● Separately recognize financial assets as servicing assets or servicing liabilities, each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into certain kinds of servicing contracts;

● Initially measure all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities at fair value, if practicable; and

● Separately present servicing assets and liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial condition and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the nine and three month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006

Additionally, SFAS No. 156 permits, but does not require, an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair value measurement method for measuring each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS No. 156 also permits a servicer that uses derivative financial instruments to offset risks on servicing to use fair value measurement when reporting both the derivative financial instrument and related servicing asset or liability.

SFAS No. 156 applies to all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006, or April 1, 2007 as to the Company.  Management adopted SFAS No. 156 effective April 1, 2007, as required, without material effect on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition or results of operations.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.”  The interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  Specifically, FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax provision taken or expected to be taken on a tax return.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on the related derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting for interim periods, disclosure, and transition of uncertain tax positions.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, or April 1, 2007 as to the Company.  Management adopted FIN 48 effective April 1, 2007, as required, without material effect on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position or results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.”  This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  This Statement emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement and should be determined based on assumptions that a market participant would use when pricing an asset or liability.  This Statement clarifies that market participant assumptions should include assumptions about risk as well as the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset.  Additionally, this Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy that provides the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data.  This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, or April 1, 2008 as to the Company, and interim periods within that fiscal year.  The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.”  This Statement allows companies the choice to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions.  This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments.  This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, or April 1, 2008 as to the Company, and interim periods within that fiscal year.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on the financial statements.

Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from March 31, 2007 to December 31, 2007

At December 31, 2007, the Company had total assets of $401.0 million, a decrease  of $4.8 million, or 1.2%, from March 31, 2007 levels.

Liquid assets, consisting of cash, federal funds sold, interest-bearing deposits and investment securities, decreased by $27.2 million, or 37.9%, to $44.7 million at December 31, 2007, due primarily to maturities of investment securities totaling $25.3 million, partially offset by purchases of $6.6 million, and a reduction of federal funds sold by $9.0 million.  The decrease in federal funds sold is directly related to the reduction in deposit balances, as management chose to limit its competition with retail certificate of deposit offerings above alternate cost of funds.

Mortgage-backed securities increased by $14.8 million, or 21.4%, during the nine months ended December 31, 2007.  This increase was primarily due to purchases of $29.6 million and market value increases on available for sale securities of $687,000 during the period, partially offset by $15.5 million in principal repayments.  Purchases were funded by principal repayments on loans and proceeds from maturities of investment securities.

At December 31, 2007, loans receivable increased by $8.3 million, or 3.5%, compared to March 31, 2007, as the Bank originated and retained $37.5 million of loans and received payments of $28.8 million.  The lending division has focused on the origination of shorter-term and adjustable-rate commercial and commercial real estate loans.  The Company believes that investing in shorter-term and adjustable-rate commercial loans positions the Company more favorably from an interest rate risk management perspective, compared to the origination of long term fixed-rate residential mortgages.  The composition of the loan portfolio has changed during the nine months ended December 31, 2007, due to a net increase of $5.2 million in non-residential real estate loans, a decrease in the loans in process of $4.1 million, as the commercial lending department was able to disburse payments to previously committed loans, an increase of $400,000 in commercial loans and an increase of $637,000 in consumer loans.  These increases were offset by a decrease in one- to four-family mortgage loans of $1.8 million as principal repayments exceeded the origination of new loans.

Non-performing loans amounted to $2.0 million and $950,000 at December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2007, respectively.  At December 31, 2007 non-performing loans consisted of residential mortgage loans of $882,000, two commercial real estate loans with a combined balance of $1.0 million and a $91,000 commercial loan.  At March 31, 2007, non-performing loans were comprised of $683,000 in residential loans and a $267,000 commercial real estate loan.  During the quarter ended December 31, 2007, the Company evaluated the three commercial loans and elected to record an additional provision for loan losses based on updated appraisals and evaluation of these loans.  Management is actively engaged with the three borrowers to bring the loans current or liquidate the collateral to protect the Bank’s interests.  The Company generally has not realized significant losses on non-performing loans secured by residential mortgages.  The following table sets forth information regarding our past due, nonaccrual and impaired loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure as of December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2007.

Condition and Results of Operations

Deposits totaled $323.9 million at December 31, 2007, a decrease of $9.6 million, or 2.9%, from $333.5 million at March 31, 2007.  Certificates of deposit decreased by $10.1 million, savings accounts decreased by $7.5 million and NOW accounts decreased by $934,000.  These decreases were partially offset by an increase in money market deposits of $6.7 million and an increase in commercial repurchase agreements of $2.2 million.  The Company continues to experience a shift in depositor preference from low cost liquid deposit accounts to higher cost money market and retail certificate accounts.  Management exercised discipline during the period with regard to the pricing of retail certificates.  In general, management attempts to benchmark retail certificate of deposit pricing to the cost of alternate sources of funds, including Federal Home Loan Bank advances and brokered deposits.  Exceptions are made to defend customer relationships with significant value to the Bank while allowing rate sensitive certificate of deposit shoppers to move to other alternatives.  The local deposit market has been negatively affected by national and online competitors offering higher rates to address liquidity concerns in national markets.

Borrowings totaled $38.5 million at December 31, 2007, an increase of $4.0 million, or 11.6%, as compared with $34.5 million at March 31, 2007.  The Company increased its borrowings to compensate for the loss of  higher cost retail certificates of deposit and low cost passbook savings accounts as discussed above.

Stockholders’ equity increased by $218,000, or 0.6%, during the nine months ended December 31, 2007, due primarily to net income of $1,516,000 and an increase in unrealized gains on available for sale securities of $600,000, which were partially offset by purchases of treasury stock of $854,000 and dividend payments of $1.1 million.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Month Periods Ended December 31, 2007 and 2006

General

Net income totaled $1,516,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of $124,000, or 7.6%, compared to net income of $1,640,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2006.  The decrease in net income was primarily attributable to an increase in the provision for loan losses of $125,000, a decrease in net interest income of $65,000 or 0.8%, and an increase in other operating expenses of $187,000, or 2.5%, partially offset by an increase in other income of $85,000 and a decrease in federal income taxes of $168,000, or 25.4%.

Interest Income

Interest income increased by $625,000, or 3.7%, to $17.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006.  This increase was due to an increase in the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets to 6.15% in the 2007 period from 5.89% for the nine month period ended December 31, 2006.  The average balance of interest-earning assets decreased by $2.2 million to $375.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, from $378.0 million for the comparable period ended December 31, 2006.The yield increase was primarily due to a change in the composition of loans, mainly due to the increase in higher rate nonresidential real estate, commercial, and land loans.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial

Condition and Results of Operations

Interest income on loans increased by $594,000, or 5.0%, for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, due primarily an increase in the average balance of loans outstanding period to period of $7.6 million, or 3.2%, to $244.5 million for the 2007 period, coupled with an increase in the weighted-average yield of 12 basis points to 6.83% for the nine months ended December 31, 2007.

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased by $642,000, or 27.6%, during the nine months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006.  This was primarily due to an increase of $12.1 million, or 19.4%, in the average balance outstanding and a 34 basis point increase in the weighted-average yield to 5.29%.

Interest income on investment securities decreased by $625,000, or 30.0%, during the nine months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, reflecting a decrease in the average balance outstanding of $21.4 million, or 32.1%, to $45.3 million for the 2007 period from $66.7 million during the comparable 2006 period, partially offset by an increase in the weighted-average yield to 4.29% from 4.16% for the nine month period in 2006.

Interest income on interest-bearing deposits increased by $14,000, or 3.9%, for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, due primarily to an increase in the weighted-average yield of 37 basis points, to 4.47% for the 2007 period from 4.10% for the nine months ended December 31, 2006, offset by a decrease in the average balance outstanding of $557,000,  or 4.8%.

Interest Expense

Interest expense totaled $8.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $690,000, or 8.4%, over the nine months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase resulted from a 28 basis point increase in the weighted-average cost of funds to 3.31% for the 2007 period, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of deposits and borrowings outstanding of $2.3 million to $359.5 million for the nine month period ended December 31, 2007.

Interest expense on deposits totaled $7.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $430,000, or 6.0%, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2006, as a result of a 25 basis point increase in the weighted-average cost of deposits to 3.14% for the 2007 period, which was partially offset by a decrease in the average balance outstanding of $7.6 million, or 2.3%, to $324.0 million for the 2007 period.

Interest expense on borrowings totaled $1.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $260,000, or 25.0%, over the 2006 period, primarily due to an increase in the average balance outstanding of $5.3 million, or 17.5%, coupled with an increase in the weighted-average yield of 29 basis points, to 4.87% for the nine months ended December 31, 2007.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income totaled $8.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of $65,000, or 0.8%, compared to the nine month period ended December 31, 2006.  The average interest rate spread decreased to 2.84% for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 from 2.86% for the nine months ended December 31, 2006.  The net interest margin remained at 2.98% for the nine months ended December 31, 2007.  The average interest rate spread decreased mainly due to the cost of deposits increasing at a higher rate than the yield on loans, as maturing certificates of deposit renewed from older, lower rates into higher current rates.  Management has allowed runoff in the retail certificate of deposit portfolio, through a limited response to competitive pricing pressure, to limit the increase in the cost of deposits.

Condition and Results of Operations

Provision for Losses on Loans

Management recorded a $195,000 provision for losses on loans for the nine month period ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $125,000 over the $70,000 recorded for the nine months ended December 31, 2006, primarily due to the increase in non-performing loans as discussed above in the changes in financial condition.  Management evaluated three non-performing commercial loans and elected to charge an additional $140,000 through the provision for loan losses based on updated appraisals and the evaluations of these loans.  The Company generally has not recognized significant losses on non-performing loans secured by residential mortgages. To the best of management’s knowledge, all known and inherent losses that are probable and which can be reasonably estimated have been recorded as of December 31, 2007.

Other Income

Other income, consisting primarily of the cash surrender value of life insurance, trust income, service fees and charges on deposit accounts, increased by $85,000, or 6.6%, for the nine months ended December 31, 2007,  compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase was primarily due to an increase in trust income of $53,000 and a $31,000 gain on disposal of real estate acquired through foreclosure.  The increase in trust income included a $14,000 one-time estate administration fee for the nine months ended December 31, 2007.

General, Administrative and Other Expense

General, administrative and other expense increased $187,000, or 2.5% for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2006.  The two areas of significant increase were occupancy and equipment expense of $45,000 and franchise tax expense of $114,000.

The increase in occupancy and equipment expense was due primarily to an increase in furniture and equipment expense of $25,000, an increase of $20,000 in branch maintenance costs, an increase of $20,000 in ATM expenses and $13,000 of increased travel expense.  These increases were offset by a $39,000 decrease in depreciation expense.

The increase in franchise tax expense was mainly due to the effects of an amendment filed in December 2006 causing a reduction in expense of $97,000 related to prior year tax returns, offset by a reduction in taxes due to the effects of treasury stock repurchases.

Federal Income Taxes

Federal income tax expense was $493,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of $168,000, or 25.4%, compared to the same period in 2006, primarily due to the $292,000, or 12.7%, decrease in pre-tax income.  The difference in the effective tax rate from the 34% statutory rate was mainly due to the  beneficial effects of income from the cash surrender value on life insurance and other tax-exempt obligations.

Comparison of Operating Results for the three Month Periods Ended December 31, 2007 and 2006

General

Net income totaled $446,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of $117,000, or 20.8%, compared to net income of $563,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The decrease in net income was primarily attributable to an increase in the provision for losses on loans of $130,000 and an increase in total general, administrative and other expenses of $188,000 or 8.0%, offset by an increase in net interest income of $72,000, or 2.6%, a decrease in tax expense of $104,000 or 45.4%, and an increase in other  income of $25,000, or 5.8%.

Interest Income

Interest income increased by $147,000, or 2.6%, to $5.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006.  This increase was due to an increase in the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets to 6.14% in the 2007 period from 5.96% for the three month period ended December 31, 2006.  This increase was offset by a $1.6 million decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets outstanding to $379.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, from $380.8 million for the comparable period ended December 31, 2006.The yield increase was primarily due to a change in the composition of loans, mainly due to the increase in higher rate nonresidential real estate and land loans.

Interest income on loans increased by $156,000, or 3.9%, for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, due primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans outstanding period to period of $9.3 million, or 3.9%, to $248.0 million for the 2007 period.  The weighted-average rate on loans remained unchanged from the quarter ending December 31, 2006 to December 31, 2007.

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities increased by $216,000, or 25.5%, during the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006.  This increase was primarily due to an increase of $13.0 million, or 19.6%, in the average balance outstanding and a 25 basis point increase in the weighted-average yield to 5.34%.

Interest income on investment securities decreased by $175,000, or 27.9%, during the three-months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, reflecting a decrease in the average balance outstanding of $19.6 million, or 31.9%, to $41.8 million for the 2007 period from $61.4 million during the comparable 2006 period, partially offset by an increase in the weighted-average yield to 4.32% from 4.08% for the three month period in 2006.

Interest income on interest-bearing deposits decreased by $50,000, or 31.4%, for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, due primarily to a decrease in the weighted-average balance of $4.3 million, or 30.4%, coupled with a decrease in the weighted-average yield of eight basis points, to 4.35% for the 2007 period from 4.43% for the three months ended December 31, 2006.

Interest expense totaled $3.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $75,000, or 2.5%, over the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase resulted from a 10 basis point increase in the weighted-average cost of funds to 3.34% for the 2007 period, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of deposits and borrowings outstanding of $1.9 million to $362.4 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2007.

Interest expense on deposits totaled $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $10,000, or 0.4%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006, as a result of a seven basis point increase in the weighted-average cost of deposits to 3.16% for the 2007 period, which was partially offset by a decrease in the average balance outstanding of $5.8 million, or 1.7%, to $323.9 million for the 2007 period.

Interest expense on borrowings totaled $475,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $65,000, or 15.9%, over the 2006 period, primarily due to an increase in the average balance outstanding of $3.8 million, or 11.1%, coupled with an increase in the weighted-average yield of 20 basis points, to 4.94% for the three months ended December 31, 2007.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income totaled $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $72,000, or 2.6%, compared to the three month period ended December 31, 2006.  The average interest rate spread increased to 2.80% for the three months ended December 31, 2007 from 2.72% for the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The net interest margin increased to 2.95% for the three months ended December 31, 2007 from 2.86% for the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The slight increase in the average interest rate spread was due to a shift in asset composition from lower yielding investment securities and deposits to higher yielding loans and mortgage-backed securities.  This was offset by the increase in the cost of borrowings coupled with the cost of deposits increasing at a higher rate than the yield on loans, as maturing certificates of deposit renewed from older, lower rates into higher current rates.  Management has allowed runoff in the retail certificate of deposit portfolio, through a limited response to competitive pricing pressure, to limit the increase in the cost of deposits.

Provision for Losses on Loans

Management recorded a $140,000 provision for losses on loans for the three month period ended December 31, 2007, an increase of $130,000 compared to the provision for the same period in 2006, primarily due to the increase in non-performing loans as discussed above in the changes in financial condition section.  The Company evaluated three non-performing commercial loans and charged an additional $140,000 through the provision for loan losses based upon updated appraisals and evaluation of these loans.  To the best of management’s knowledge, all known and inherent losses that are probable and which can be reasonably estimated have been recorded as of December 31, 2007.

Other Income

Other income, consisting primarily of the cash surrender value of life insurance, trust income, service fees and charges on deposit accounts, increased by $25,000, or 5.8%, for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase was primarily due to an increase in trust income of $10,000, or 28.6%, mainly due to the growth in the trust department, and an increase of $13,000, or 3.8%, in service fees and charges on deposit accounts.

Condition and Results of Operations

General, Administrative and Other Expense

General, administrative and other expense increased by $188,000, or 8.0%, to $2.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase of $62,000, or 4.6%, in employee compensation expense was mainly due to normal merit increases from year to year combined with management's decision to fill certain vacant positions that existed at December 31, 2006 during 2007 to maintain customer service and internal operations.  The franchise tax expense increase of $118,000 was mainly due to the effects of an amendment filed in December 2006 causing a reduction in expense of $97,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2006.

Federal Income Taxes

Federal income tax expense was $125,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of $104,000, or 45.4%, compared to the same period in 2006, primarily due to the $221,000, or 27.9%, decrease in pretax income.  The difference in the effective tax rate from the 34% statutory rate was mainly due to the  beneficial effects of income from the cash surrender value on life insurance and other tax-exempt obligations.
