NOTE 3 — RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004),Share-Based Payment(“FAS No. 123R”). FAS No. 123R revised FAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. FAS No. 123R will require compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statement (with limited exceptions). The amount of compensation cost will be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Compensation cost will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award.

In April, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted a new rule that amends the compliance dates for FAS No. 123R. The Statement requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements and that this cost be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. FAS No. 123R covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. The Company will adopt FAS No. 123R on January 1, 2006 and is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s results of operations.

In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB No. 107”),Share-Based Payment, providing guidance on option valuation methods, the accounting for income tax effects of share-based payment arrangements upon adoption of FAS No. 123R, and the disclosures in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations subsequent to the adoption. The Company will provide SAB No. 107 required

disclosures upon adoption of FAS No. 123R on January 1, 2006 and does not expect the impact of the adoption of the standard to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

In December 2004, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 153 (“FAS No 153”),Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets — An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29,Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. FAS No. 153 amends APB Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of FAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Early application is permitted and companies must apply the standard prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In June 2005, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 154 (“FAS No 154”),Accounting Changes and Errors Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FAS No. 3. The Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. FAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impractical. APB Opinion No. 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principles be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. FAS No.154 improves the financial reporting because its requirements enhance the consistency of financial reporting between periods. The provisions of FAS No. 154 are effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of CSB Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary at September 30, 2005, compared to December 31, 2004, and the consolidated results of operations for the nine-month and quarterly periods ending September 30, 2005 compared to the same periods in 2004. The purpose of this discussion is to provide the reader with a more thorough understanding of the consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim consolidated financial statements and related footnotes.

FORWARD — LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. When used herein, the terms “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “believes,” and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or its management are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results, performance or achievements may materially differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause or contribute to such material differences include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, interest rate environment, competitive conditions in the financial services industry, changes in law, governmental policies and regulations, and rapidly changing technology affecting financial services.

The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets were $319.4 million at September 30, 2005, compared to $317.3 million at December 31, 2004, representing an increase of $2.1 million or .7%. Cash and cash equivalents increased $4.5 million or 28.7%, during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2005, due to a $.6 million decrease in cash and due from banks and a $5.1 million increase in Federal funds sold. Securities decreased $4.2 million or 5.7% during the first nine months of 2005 primarily as a result of the sale of $5.1 million of securities during the first quarter of 2005. Net loans increased $.6 million or .3% while deposits increased $7.8 million or 3.1% and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings decreased $5.6 million (29.7%), during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005.

10.

CSB BANCORP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net loans increased $.6 million, or .3% during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005. This increase was due to a combination of increased loan demand and production within the Company’s market area. The allowance for loan losses amounted to $2,444,000, or 1.12% of total loans at September 30, 2005, compared to $2,575,000 or 1.18% of total loans at December 31, 2004. The decrease in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans is largely due to the charge-off and transfer of two large problem credits in 2005. During the second quarter of 2005, property securing two commercial loans was obtained through foreclosure resulting in net loan charge-offs of $410,000 and a transfer of $625,000 to Other Real Estate owned. The components of the change in the allowance for loan losses during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 included a provision of $283,000 and net loan charge-offs of $414,000. Loans past due more than 90 days and still accruing interest and loans placed on nonaccrual status aggregated $783,000, or .36% of total loans at September 30, 2005, compared to $1,671,000 or 0.8% of total loans at December 31, 2004.

The ratio of net loans to deposits was 84.5% at September 30, 2005, compared to 86.9% at December 31, 2004. The decrease in this ratio is due to deposit growth exceeding loan growth during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

The Company had net unrealized losses of $433,000 within its securities portfolio at September 30, 2005 compared to net unrealized gains of $167,000 at June 30, 2005 and net unrealized gains of $589,000 at December 31, 2004. Management has considered industry analyst reports, sector credit reports and the volatility within the bond market in concluding that the gross unrealized losses of $788,000 within the portfolio as of September 30, 2005 were primarily the result of customary and expected fluctuations in the bond market. As a result, all security impairments as of September 30, 2005 are considered temporary.

The decrease in Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings resulted from the repayment of a $5 million maturing advance. Other liquidity sources, consisting of securities sold under repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased, decreased a combined $.7 million.

Total shareholders’ equity amounted to $36.4 million or 11.4% of total assets, at September 30, 2005, compared to $36.2 million, or 11.4% of total assets, at December 31, 2004. The increase in shareholders’ equity during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was due to net income of $1,970,000, partially offset by dividends declared of $1,111,000 and a decrease in unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities, net of tax, of $674,000. The Company and its subsidiary met all regulatory capital requirements at September 30, 2005.

Three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004

For the quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company recorded net income of $689,000, or $.26 per share, as compared to net income of $747,000 or $.28 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2004. The decrease in net income for the quarter of $58,000 was principally due to a decrease of $559,000 from gain on the sale of securities, a $36,000 increase in non-interest expenses, a $59,000 increase in federal income tax provision, offset by a $402,000 increase in net interest income and decrease of $179,000 to the provision for loan losses.

Interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 was $4,472,000 representing a $728,000 increase or 19.5%, compared to the same period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to an increase in loan interest rates. Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 was $1,258,000, an increase of $297,000, or 31.0%, from the same period in 2004. The increase in interest expense occurred due to an increase in the average rate paid on all interest-bearing liabilities.

The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 was $71,000, compared to a $250,000 provision for the same quarter in 2004. The provision for loan losses is determined based on management’s calculation of the allowance for loan losses, which includes provisions for classified loans, as well as for the remainder of the portfolio based on historical data, including past charge-offs, and current economic trends.

Non-interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 was $538,000, a decrease of $544,000, or 50.3%, compared to the same quarter in 2004. This decrease was primarily due to the Company recognizing $559,000 in gain on sale of securities during the third quarter 2004 as compared to no gain recognized during 2005. These decreases were offset by an increase in trust and brokerage income of $65,000.

Non-interest expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 increased $36,000, or 1.3%, compared to the third quarter of 2004. This increase was due primarily to the increase of $46,000 in salary and employee benefits with an overall increase in full-time equivalents and medical benefit expense.

Nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004

Net income for the nine months ending September 30, 2005, was $1,970,000 or $.74 per share, as compared to $1,875,000 or $.71 per share during the same period in 2004. Return on average assets and return on average equity were .84% and 7.24%, respectively, for the nine-month period of 2005 compared to .80% and 7.17%, respectively, for 2004.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net interest income was $9,171,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of $887,000 or 10.7% from the same period last year. Total non-interest expenses increased $296,000 or 3.8%, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004, while non-interest income decreased $281,000, or 13.0%, primarily as a result of decreased gains on the sale of securities of $338,000. The provision for loan losses decreased $140,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, as compared to same period in 2004.

Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, was $12,665,000, an increase of $1,481,000 or 13.2% from the same period in 2004. Interest income on loans increased $1,590,000 or 17.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to an increase of 82 basis points on average loan rates coupled with an overall increase in average gross loan balances of $5.5 million. Interest income on securities decreased $147,000, or 6.7%, as average investment balances declined $3.9 million and were used to fund loan growth.

Interest expense increased $594,000, or 20.5%, to $3,494,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Interest expense on deposits increased $547,000 or 22.6%, from the same period of last year, while interest expense on other borrowings increased $47,000 or 9.7%. The increase in deposit interest expense was caused by the higher rates on all interest bearing deposit accounts, due to a rising interest rate environment. The net interest margin improved by 21 basis points for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, to 4.28% from 4.07% for the same period in 2004.

The provision for loan losses was $283,000 during the first nine months of 2005, compared to $423,000 in the same nine-month period in 2004. The provision for loan losses is determined based on management’s calculation of the allowance for loan losses, which includes provisions for classified loans, as well as for the remainder of the portfolio based on historical data, including past charge-offs, and current economic trends.

Non-interest income decreased $281,000, or 13.1%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004. The decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to a decrease of $338,000 on sale of securities in 2005, partially offset by a $51,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts. Non-interest expenses increased $296,000, or 3.8%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. Salaries and employee benefits increased $249,000 or 6.3% as a result of increased staffing, and increased employee medical benefit costs. Professional and director fees decreased $67,000 or 11.9%, primarily as a result of discontinuing the use of several third-party consultants. Other expense increased $79,000 during the first nine months of 2005, partially as a

result of two robberies at a branch office and the resulting increase security costs following those robberies. The bank has also recognized increased costs of the Trust Department expansion in Wooster, Ohio.

The provision for income taxes was $771,000 (effective rate of 28.1%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $416,000 (effective rate of 18.2%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The increase in the effective tax rate resulted from a decrease in tax-exempt interest income as a portion of total income before income taxes.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity refers to the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash to fund current loan demand, meet deposit withdrawals, pay operating expenses and meet other obligations. The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, which totaled $20.1 million at September 30, 2005 an increase of $4.5 million from $15.6 million at December 31, 2004. Net income, securities available-for-sale, and loan repayments also serve as sources of liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents and securities maturing within one year represent 10.1% of total assets as of September 30, 2005 compared to 7.9% of total assets at year-end 2004. Other sources of liquidity include, but are not limited to, purchase of federal funds, advances from the FHLB, adjustments of interest rates to attract deposits, and borrowing at the Federal Reserve discount window. Management believes that its sources of liquidity are adequate to meet the needs of the Company.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements (as such term is defined in applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules) that are reasonable likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

During the first nine months of 2005, the Company’s contractual obligations have not changed materially from those discussed in the Company’s Annual Report of Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
