Basic earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2007 is computed using 1,072,347 weighted average shares outstanding. Earnings per share for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 is computed using 1,072,849 weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the treasury stock method by adjusting the number of shares outstanding by the shares purchased. The weighted average shares outstanding for the diluted earnings per share calculations are 1,214,762 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 1,213,610 for the nine months ended March 31, 2008.

This fiscal year Eagle has paid three dividends of $0.24 per share on August 24, 2007, November 16, 2007, and February 8, 2008. A dividend of $0.24 per share was declared on April 17, 2008, payable May 9, 2008 to stockholders of record on April 25, 2008.

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. (Dollar amounts in thousands)

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. SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 clarifies the definition of exchange price as the price between market participants in an orderly transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability in the market in which the reporting entity would transact for the asset or liability, that is, the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The changes to current practice resulting from the application of this statement relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this new accounting principle will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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.

The Bank's mortgage lending focus could cause performance to be affected as housing markets in southwest Montana advance or decline.  Thus far the difficulties in other markets with regard to housing have not been felt as acutely in the Bank's markets. Currently, Montana’s single family residential foreclosure rates are much lower than the national average.

Recently, 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 competition and more costly wholesale funding will likely be needed to supplement deposit growth.

The quarter began with the Federal Reserve Bank’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) lowering the fed funds target rate by 125 basis points in January. The FOMC continued to reduce the fed funds target rate during the quarter with another rate reduction of 75 basis points in March. As a result, the short end of the yield curve has fallen, thus bringing some steepness back into the yield curve particularly after the two year point of the curve. With this change, along with the rate reductions seen in the prior quarter as well, net interest income increased during the quarter and for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008. Management expects this trend to continue over the next quarter, as rates on deposits and other funding sources will be priced off the lower, shorter end of the yield curve.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Overview - continued

To take advantage of the historically high spreads seen recently in the financial and credit markets, management implemented a “leverage strategy” at the end of the quarter. This strategy put in place approximately $16 million in investments composed of collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) and mortgage backed securities (“MBSs”) funded by FHLB borrowings. Management expects this to further increase the net interest income over the next fiscal year and anticipates the strategy to unwind approximately in five years as principal payments are received and borrowings are paid down. The implementation did slightly weaken the bank’s capital, however, the capital position of the Bank is still well over the amounts considered to be “adequately capitalized” by regulation.

Financial Condition

Comparisons of results in this section are between the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007.

Total assets increased by $23.61 million, or 9.65%, to $268.30 million at March 31, 2008, from $244.69 million at June 30, 2007. Total liabilities increased by $21.90 million to $242.50 million at March 31, 2008, from $220.60 million at June 30, 2007. Total equity increased $1.71 million to $25.79 million at March 31, 2008 from $24.09 million at June 30, 2007.

Loans receivable increased $6.56 million, or 4.15%, to $164.70 million at March 31, 2008 from $158.14 million at June 30, 2007. Commercial real estate and land loans showed the largest increase of $3.43 million in the nine month period (see Note 3 to the financial statements on page 10 for more details). Total loan originations were $86.10 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008, with single family mortgages accounting for $49.80 million of the total. Construction loan originations (including those for commercial real estate and land development loans) totaled $15.71 million. Home equity and commercial real estate and land loan originations totaled $11.67 million and $3.60 million, respectively, for the same period. Consumer loan originations totaled $5.38 million. Loans held for sale increased to $1.49 million at March 31, 2008 from $1.18 million at June 30, 2007. Investment securities available-for-sale (AFS) increased $10.61 million, or 16.38%, to $75.39 million at March 31, 2008 from $64.77 million at June 30, 2007. The investment category with the largest increase was collateralized mortgage obligations, which increased $11.59 million.

Deposits decreased $507,000, or 0.28%, to $179.14 million at March 31, 2008 from $179.65 million at June 30, 2007. Money market accountshad the largest decrease. Noninterest checking also decreased. Interest-bearing checking, passbook savings, and certificate of deposits all increased. Advances and other borrowings increased $26.00 million, to $56.00 million from $30.00 million.

Total equity increased as a result of earnings for the nine months of $1.22 million and a decrease in other comprehensive loss of $1.01 million (due to a decrease in net unrealized loss on securities available-for-sale), offset by purchases of treasury stock and the payment of three quarterly $0.24 per share regular cash dividends.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ending March 31, 2008 and 2007

Net Income. Eagle’s net income was $538,000 and $453,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, and 2007, respectively. The increase of $85,000, or 18.76%, was due to increases in noninterest income of $75,000 and net interest income of $107,000, offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $101,000. Eagle’s tax provision was $4,000 lower in the current quarter. Basic earnings per share were $0.50 for the current period, compared to $0.42 for the previous year’s period.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $107,000 for the current quarter. Total interest and dividend income increased $214,000, which was partially offset by the increase in interest expense of $107,000.

Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income was $3.47 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, compared to $3.26 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, representing an increase of $214,000, or 6.56%. Interest and fees on loans increased to $2.75 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008 from $2.51 million for the same period ended March 31, 2007. This increase of $241,000, or 9.61%, was due primarily to the increase in the average balances on loans. Average balances for loans receivable, net, increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 to $166.52 million, compared to $150.83 million for the previous year. This represents an increase of $15.69 million, or 10.40%. The average interest rate on loans decreased by 4 basis points, from 6.65% to 6.61%.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ending March 31, 2008 and 2007 - continued

Interest and dividends on investment securities available-for-sale (AFS) decreased to $692,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 from $726,000 for the same quarter last year. Average balances on investments decreased to $61.05 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, compared to $67.47 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The average interest rate earned on investments increased to 4.59% from 4.37%, or 22 basis points.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased to $1.64 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, from $1.53 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, an increase of $107,000, or 6.98%, as interest paid on both borrowings and deposits increased. Interest on deposits increased to $1.10 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. This increase of $24,000, or 2.24%, was due to increases in average rates paid, as average balances increased slightly. The average rate paid on deposits increased 7 basis points from the quarter ended March 31, 2007 to the quarter ended March 31, 2008. Certificates of deposit had increases in average rates paid, while rates on passbook savings and checking accounts were unchanged and rates on money market accounts decreased. A significant increase in the average balance of borrowings, resulted in an increase in interest paid on borrowings to $543,000 in the current quarter compared to $460,000 in the previous year’s quarter. The average rate on borrowings decreased from 5.12% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 to 4.79% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

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 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 March 31, 2007 or the quarter ended March 31, 2008. This is a reflection of the continued strong asset quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio. Total classified assets decreased from $391,000 at June 30, 2007 to $302,000 at March 31, 2008. The Bank currently has no foreclosed real estate.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income increased to $619,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, from $544,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, an increase of $75,000 or 13.79%. This was primarily due to increases in demand deposit service charges of $77,000, net gain on sale of available-for-sale securities of $77,000, and $26,000 in other income. These were partially offset by net losses on securities accounted for under SFAS 159 of $118,000. This loss of $118,000 is due to a loss in market value on investments in certain preferred stock, issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 159 Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which the company implemented July 1, 2007, a company elects fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis and subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in earnings when incurred. For the three month period ending March 31, 2008, the market value of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac preferred stock, owned by Eagle, decreased $118,000. The other categories of noninterest income registered small changes.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased by $101,000, or 6.08%, to $1.76 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, from $1.66 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. This increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits of $55,000 and consulting expense of $19,000, and amortization of mortgage servicing rights of $17,000. The increase in salaries and benefits was due to normal raises and other inflationary items such as health insurance premiums. The increase in consulting expenses was due to the use of some marketing and product development consulting firms. The increase in the amortization of mortgage servicing rights was due to a higher rate of loan prepayments from the prior quarter. Other expense categories showed minor changes.

Income Tax Expense. Eagle’s income tax expense was $155,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, compared to $159,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 was 22.37% and was 25.98% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007

Net Income. Eagle’s net income was $1.22 million and $1.34 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The decrease of $115,000, or 8.61%, was due to an increase in noninterest expense of $279,000 and a decrease in noninterest income of $201,000, partially offset by an increase in net interest income of $309,000. Eagle’s tax provision was $56,000 lower in the current nine month period. Basic earnings per share were $1.14 in each nine month period.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 - continued

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased to $5.32 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 from $5.01 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2007. This increase of $309,000 was the result of an increase in interest income of $1.02 million, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $711,000.

Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income was $10.38 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $9.37 million for the same period ended March 31, 2007, an increase of $1.01 million, or 10.78%. Interest and fees on loans increased to $8.17 million for 2008 from $7.20 million for 2007. This increase of $971,000 million, or 13.49%, was due primarily to an increase in the average balances for loans receivable, net, for the nine months ended March 31, 2008. Average balances for loans receivable, net, for this period were $164.45 million, compared to $147.68 million for the previous year’s period. This is an increase of $16.77 million, or 11.36%. The average interest rate earned on loans receivable increased by 12 basis points, to 6.62%. Interest and dividends on securities available-for-sale (AFS) increased to $2.12 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 from $2.08 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2007. Interest on securities held-to-maturity (HTM) decreased to $26,000 from $33,000. Average balances on investment securities decreased to $63.40 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $66.65 million for the same period ended March 31, 2007. The average interest rate earned on investments increased 28 basis points, to 4.51% from 4.23%.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased to $5.06 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 from $4.34 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2007, an increase of $711,000 million, or 16.37%. Interest on deposits increased to $3.45 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 from $3.05 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2007. This increase of $404,000, or 13.25%, was the result of an increase in average rates paid on deposit accounts accompanied by a small increase in average balances in deposit accounts. Average rates paid on deposits increased 31 basis points from 2007 to 2008. Checking accounts and certificates of deposit had increases in average rates paid, while money market accounts and passbook savings rates decreased. Average balances in interest-bearing deposits increased to $163.97 million for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 compared to $162.53 million for the same period in the previous year. Interest paid on borrowings increased to $1.60 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 from $1.30 million for the same period ended March 31, 2007. The increase was due to increases in the average balances of borrowings from $33.28 million in 2007 to $43.79 million in 2008. The average rate paid on borrowings decreased 28 basis points from 2007 to 2008.

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 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 of the nine month periods ended March 31, 2008 or March 31, 2007. This is a reflection of the continued strong asset quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio. Total classified assets decreased to $302,000 at March 31, 2008 from $391,000 atJune 30, 2007. The Bank currently has no foreclosed real estate.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income decreased to $1.47 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008, from $1.67 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of $201,000, or 12.01%. This was due to increases in net gain on sale of loans, demand deposit service charges, net gain on sale of available-for-sale securities, and other noninterest income, offset by net loss of $549,000 on securities accounted for under SFAS 159. This is due to a loss in market value on investments in certain preferred stock, issued by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The Company implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 159 Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, on July 1, 2007 which requires the recognition of losses for investments whose value has been impaired as described above. Net gain on sale of loans was higher due to selling a higher percentage of mortgage originations. The increase in demand deposit service charges was due to more overdraft fees as a result of implementing a new overdraft program during the period. Net gain on sale of available-for-sale securities resulted from more sales activity during the nine month period compared to the prior year’s period. The increase in this activity was a result of management slightly adjusting the investment portfolio.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased by $279,000, or 5.65%, to $5.22 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2008, from $4.94 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2007. This increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits of $257,000 and consulting expense of $16,000. The increase in salaries and benefits was attributable to normal raises and other inflationary items such as health insurance premiums. The increase in consulting expenses was caused by the retention of marketing and product development consulting firms. The increase in postage of $15,000 along with inflationary cost of postage was partly attributable to increased mailings for privacy notifications. Other categories of noninterest expense showed both modest increases and decreases.

Income Tax Expense. Eagle’s income tax expense was $356,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $412,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2007. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2008 was 22.57% and was 23.57% for the nine months ended March 31, 2007.

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 9.08% and 15.05% for the months ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007, 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 December 31, 2007 (the most recent report available), the Bank’s measure of sensitivity to interest rate movements, as measured by the OTS, improved from the previous quarter. The Bank’s capital ratio as measured by the OTS decreased slightly during the same period. The Bank is well within the guidelines set forth by the Board of Directors for interest rate risk sensitivity.

As of March 31, 2008, the Bank’s regulatory capital was in excess of all applicable regulatory requirements. At March 31, 2008, the Bank’s tangible, core, and risk-based capital ratios amounted to 9.70%, 9.70%, and 14.46%, respectively, compared to regulatory requirements of 1.5%, 3.0%, and 8.0%, respectively. See the following table (amounts in thousands):

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.
