NOTE 7. MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS
The Bank allocates its total cost in mortgage loans between mortgage servicing rights and loans, based upon their relative fair values, when loans are subsequently sold or securitized, with the servicing rights retained. Fair values are generally obtained from an independent third party. Impairment of mortgage servicing rights is measured based upon the characteristics of the individual loans, including note rate, term, underlying collateral, current market conditions, and estimates of net servicing income. If the carrying value of the mortgage servicing rights exceeds the estimated fair market value, a valuation allowance is established for any decline, which is viewed to be temporary. Charges to the valuation allowance are charged against or credited to mortgage servicing income. Periodic independent valuations of the mortgage servicing rights are performed. As a result of the most recent valuation, no temporary decline in the fair value was determined to have occurred, and no valuation allowance has been established. The following schedules show the activity in the mortgage servicing rights and the valuation allowance.

NOTE 8. RECENTLY ISSUED PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48).” The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions must be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold must be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold must be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. FIN 48 also provides guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties. The new interpretation was effective for the Bank January 1, 2007. The implementation of the provisions of the new interpretation did not have a significant impact on the Bank’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Bank files income tax returns in the U. S. federal jurisdiction and is no longer subject to U. S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2004.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 was effective for the Bank on July 1, 2007 and did not have a significant impact on the Bank’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective of the new pronouncement is to improve financial reporting by providing companies 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. SFAS No. 159 is effective for the Bank July 1, 2007. See Note 2 for information on the impact of the adoption of this statement.

Overview
The Company’s primary activity is its ownership of its wholly owned subsidiary, American Federal Savings Bank (the “Bank”). The Bank is a federally chartered savings bank, engaging in typical banking activities: acquiring deposits from local markets and investing in loans and investment securities. The Bank’s primary component of earnings is its net interest margin (also called spread or margin), the difference between interest income and interest expense. The net interest margin is managed by management (through the pricing of its products and by the types of products offered and kept in portfolio), and is affected by moves in interest rates. Noninterest income in the form of fee income and gain on sale of loans adds to the Bank’s income.
The Bank has a strong mortgage lending focus, with the majority of its loans in single-family residential mortgages. This has led to successfully marketing home equity loans to its customers, as well as a wide range of shorter term consumer loans for various personal needs (automobiles, recreational vehicles, etc.). In recent years the Bank has focused on adding commercial loans to its portfolio, both real estate and non-real estate. The purpose of this diversification is to mitigate the Bank’s dependence on the mortgage market, as well as to improve its ability to manage its spread. The Bank’s management recognizes the need for sources of fee income to complement its margin, and the Bank now maintains a significant loan serviced portfolio, which provides a steady source of fee income. The gain on sale of loans also provides significant fee income in periods of high mortgage loan origination volumes. Fee income is also supplemented with fees generated from the Bank’s deposit accounts. The Bank has a high percentage of non-maturity deposits, such as checking accounts and savings accounts, which allows management flexibility in managing its spread. Non-maturity deposits do not automatically reprice as interest rates rise, as do certificates of deposit.
For the past three years, management’s focus has been on improving the Bank’s core earnings. Core earnings can be described as income before taxes, with the exclusion of gain on sale of loans and adjustments to the market value of the Bank’s loan serviced portfolio. Management believes that the Bank will need to continue to focus on increasing net interest margin, other areas of fee income, and control operating expenses to achieve earnings growth going forward. Management’s strategy of growing the bank’s loan portfolio and deposit base is expected to help achieve these goals: loans typically earn higher rates of return than investments; a larger deposit base will yield higher fee income; increasing the asset base will reduce the relative impact of fixed operating costs. The biggest challenge to the strategy is funding the growth of the Bank’s balance sheet in an efficient manner. Deposit growth will be difficult to maintain due to significant competition. Wholesale funding (which is usually more expensive than funding from retail deposits) will likely be needed to supplement it.
The level and movement of interest rates impacts the Bank’s earnings as well. The Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) lowered the federal funds target rate in September 2007 by 50 basis points. As a result short-term interest rates decreased resulting in a slightly upward sloping yield curve. If this continues, the Bank’s funding costs are likely to decrease and provide for a larger net interest margin as its deposits are typically priced relative to short-term rates, while the majority of its loan products are priced relative to long-term rates. The Bank has continued to reinvest investment proceeds in the loan portfolio, because as noted earlier, loans typically earn higher rates of return than investments. Additionally, many of the Bank’s investments which mature in the coming year are at low (below current market) interest rates, affording an opportunity to reinvest the proceeds at the current higher rates and increasing interest income in the coming quarters.

Financial Condition
Comparisons in this section are for the three month period ended September 30, 2007.
Total assets increased by $3.37 million, or 1.4%, to $248.06 million at September 30, 2007, from $244.69 million at June 30, 2007. Total liabilities increased by $2.56 million to $223.16 million at September 30, 2007, from $220.60 million at June 30, 2007. Total equity increased $807,000 to $24.90 million at September 30, 2007 from $24.09 million at June 30, 2007.
Loans receivable increased $3.80 million, or 2.40%, to $161.94 million at September 30, 2007 from $158.14 million at June 30, 2006. Single-family mortgage loans were the loan category with the largest increase, $2.90 million, while real estate construction loans decreased $2.60 million. Most other loan categories showed some increase. Total loan originations were $31.05 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007, with single family mortgages accounting for $20.48 million of the total. Home equity and construction loan originations totaled $5.05 million and $2.41 million, respectively, for the same period. Commercial real estate and land loan originations totaled $2.88 million. Loans held-for-sale increased to $1.55 million at September 30, 2007 from $1.18 million at June 30, 2007.
Deposits grew $1.83 million, or 1.0%, to $181.48 million at September 30, 2007 from $179.65 million at June 30, 2007. Growth in certificates of deposit and non-interest checking, and passbook savings accounts contributed to the increase in deposits. Interest checking and money market accounts declined. As stated above in the Overview section, deposit growth is expected to continue to be difficult to achieve due to the significant competition among financial institutions in our markets. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank and other borrowings increased $4.0 million, or 13.3%, to $34.0 million from $30.0 million.
The growth in total equity was the result of earnings for the three months of $464,000 and a decrease in other comprehensive loss of $556,000 (mainly due to a decrease in net unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale). These were partially offset by the payment of a $0.24 per share regular cash dividend and stock repurchases.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006
Net Income. Eagle’s net income was $464,000 and $422,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, respectively. The increase of $42,000, or 9.95%, was due to increases in non-interest income of $47,000 and net interest income of $55,000, offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $52,000. Eagle’s tax provision was $8,000 higher in the current quarter. Basic earnings per share were $0.43 for the current period, compared to $0.39 for the previous year’s period.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased slightly to $1.709 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 from $1.654 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. This increase of $55,000 was the result of an increase in interest and dividend income of $414,000, partially offset by the increase interest expense of $359,000.
Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income was $3.408 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, compared to $2.994 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, representing an increase of $414,000, or 13.83%. Interest and fees on loans increased to $2.668 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from $2.311 million for the same period ended September 30, 2006. This increase of $357,000, or 15.45%, was due primarily to the increase in the average balances of loans receivable for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. Average balances for loans receivable, net, for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 were $162.68 million, compared to $144.36 million for the previous year. This represents an increase of $18.32 million, or 12.69%. The average interest rate earned on loans receivable increased by 16 basis points, from 6.40% at September 30, 2006 to 6.56% at September 30, 2007. Interest and dividends on investment securities available-for-sale (AFS) increased to $722,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 from $660,000 for the same quarter last year. Average balances on investments decreased to $64.78 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, compared to $65.44 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The average interest rate earned on investments increased to 4.53% from 4.10%. Interest on securities held to maturity (HTM) decreased from $11,000 to $9,000 due to lower balances.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 (Continued)
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased to $1.699 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, from $1.340 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, an increase of $359,000, or 26.79%. Interest on deposits increased to $1.185 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, from $934,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. This increase of $251,000, or 26.87%, was the result of an increase in average rates paid on deposit accounts from 2.32% at September 30, 2006 to 2.86% at September 30, 2007. Certificates of deposit and money market accounts showed increases in average rates paid while rates on passbook savings and checking accounts had changed slightly. Average balances in interest-bearing deposit accounts increased slightly to $165.47 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, compared to $161.48 million for the same quarter in the previous year. The significant increase in the average balance of FHLB and other borrowings resulted in an increase in interest paid on borrowings to $439,000 in the current quarter compared to $331,000 in the previous year’s quarter. The average rate paid on borrowings decreased from 5.27% last year to 5.09% this year. The average rate paid on all liabilities increased 51 basis points from the quarter ended September 30, 2006 to the quarter ended September 30, 2007.
Provision for Loan Losses. Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate by Eagle’s subsidiary, American Federal Savings Bank (the Bank), to provide for probable loan losses based on prior loss experience, volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, available peer group information, and past due loans in portfolio. The Bank’s policies require the review of assets on a quarterly basis. The Bank classifies loans as well as other assets if warranted. While the Bank believes it uses the best information available to make a determination with respect to the allowance for loan losses, it recognizes that future adjustments may be necessary. No provision was made for loan losses for either the quarter ended September 30, 2007 or the quarter ended September 30, 2006. This is a reflection of the continued strong asset quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio, as non-performing loan ratios continue to be below peer averages. Total classified assets declined slightly from $391,000 at June 30, 2007 to $210,000 at September 30, 2007 and total less than 0.15% of the total loan portfolio. At quarter end, the Bank had no other real estate owned.
Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income increased to $584,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, from $537,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, an increase of $47,000. This was the result of an increase in net gain on sale of loans and deposit service charges offset by an adjustment of $41,000 to the valuation of the Company’s preferred stock which is now being accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No.159 Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Beginning with its new fiscal year, July 1, 2007 the Company elected to account for its preferred stock under SFAS No. 159, which allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. Subsequent changes in fair value of these assets are recognized in earning when incurred. On July 1, 2007 a charge to retained earnings for $104,028 was recorded in accordance with the implementation of SFAS No. 159 to record the unrealized loss (net of taxes) on preferred stock at that date. Income from sale of loans increased to $199,000 from $119,000 due to higher mortgage loan originations. Demand deposit service charges increased to $166,000 from $135,000 due to increased overdraft fees. Other noninterest income decreased to $127,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 from $145,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. This was primarily due to a $13,000 decline in value of the $15 million notional amount ($32 thousand contract amount) interest rate cap originally purchased in February 2007.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased by $52,000 or 3.22% to $1.668 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, from $1.616 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits of $108,000, offset by a decrease in advertising expense of $30,000, and occupancy expense of $7,000. Advertising expense was lower due to increased promotion of checking products that occurred during the quarter ending September 30, 2006. The slowdown in mortgage loan prepayments led to a decrease in the amortization of mortgage servicing fees of $10,000. Other expense categories showed minor changes.
Income Tax Expense. Eagle’s income tax expense was $161,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, compared to $153,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was 25.76% and was 26.61% for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.

Liquidity, Interest Rate Sensitivity and Capital Resources
The company’s subsidiary, American Federal Savings Bank (the Bank), is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) regulations. The OTS has eliminated the statutory requirement based upon a percentage of deposits and short-term borrowings. The OTS states that the liquidity requirement is retained for safety and soundness purposes, and that appropriate levels of liquidity will depend upon the types of activities in which the company engages. For internal reporting purposes, the Bank uses the previous regulatory definitions of liquidity. The Bank’s average liquidity ratio was 8.83% and 17.34% for the months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively.
The Bank’s primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investments, funds provided from operations, and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. Scheduled repayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturities of investment securities are generally predictable. However, other sources of funds, such as deposit flows and loan prepayments, can be greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank uses liquidity resources principally to fund existing and future loan commitments. It also uses them to fund maturing certificates of deposit, demand deposit withdrawals and to invest in other loans and investments, maintain liquidity, and meet operating expenses.
Liquidity may be adversely affected by unexpected deposit outflows, higher interest rates paid by competitors, and similar matters. Management monitors projected liquidity needs and determines the level desirable, based in part on commitments to make loans and management’s assessment of the bank’s ability to generate funds.
At June 30, 2007 (the most recent report available), the Bank’s measure of sensitivity to interest rate movements, as measured by the OTS, worsened from the previous quarter. The Bank’s capital ratio as measured by the OTS decreased from the previous quarter. The Bank’s strong capital position mitigates its interest rate risk exposure. The Bank is well within the guidelines set forth by the Board of Directors for interest rate risk sensitivity.
As of September 30, 2007, the Bank’s regulatory capital was in excess of all applicable regulatory requirements. At September 30, 2007, the Bank’s tangible, core, and risk-based capital ratios amounted to 10.35%, 10.35, and 14.63%, respectively, compared to regulatory requirements of 1.5%, 3.0%, and 8.0%, respectively.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
Our financial statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time and due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than do the general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
There are a number of accounting estimates performed by the Company in preparing its financial statements. Some of the estimates are developed internally, while others are obtained from independent third parties. Examples of estimates using external sources are the fair market value of investment securities, fair value of mortgage servicing rights, deferred compensation, and appraised value of foreclosed properties. It is management's assertion that the external sources have access to resources, methodologies, and markets that provide adequate assurances that no material impact would occur due to changes in assumptions. The following accounting estimates are performed internally:
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL) - Management applies its knowledge of current local economic and real estate market conditions, historical experience, loan portfolio composition, and the assessment of delinquent borrowers' situations, to determine the adequacy of its ALLL reserve. These factors are reviewed by the Bank's federal banking regulator and the Company's external auditors on a regular basis. The current level of the ALLL reserve is deemed to be more than adequate given the above factors, with no material impact expected due to a difference in the assumptions.
Deferred Loan Fees - Management applies time study and statistical analysis to determine loan origination costs to be capitalized under FAS 91. The analysis is reviewed by the Company's external auditors for reasonableness. No material impact is expected if different assumptions are used, as many of our loans have a short duration.
Deferred Tax Assets - Management expects to realize the deferred tax assets due to the continued profitability of the Company.
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments - Management uses an internal model to determine fair value for its loan portfolio and certificates of deposit. The assumptions entail spreads over the Treasury yield curve at appropriate maturity benchmarks. Assumptions incorporating different spreads would naturally deliver varying results; however, due to the short-term nature of the loan portfolio and certificates of deposit, changes in the results would be mitigated. Currently, the fair value is only presented as footnote information, and changes due to new assumptions would not, in management's opinion, affect the reader's opinion of the Company's financial condition.
Economic Life of Fixed Assets - Management determines the useful life of its buildings, furniture, and equipment for depreciation purposes. These estimates are reviewed by the Company's external auditors for reasonableness. No material impact is expected if different assumptions were to be used.
