BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by Pacific Financial Corporation ("Pacific" or the "Company") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2002. The December 31, 2001 condensed balance sheet is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements. 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. All dollar amounts in tables, except per share information, are stated in thousands. 2.

These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management, and on information currently available to them. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible future results of operations set forth under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "estimates" or similar expressions. Any forward-looking statements in this document are subject to risks relating to, among other things, the following: 1. competitive pressures among depository and other financial institutions which may impede our ability to attract and retain borrowers, depositors and other customers; 2. changes in the interest rate environment resulting in reduced margins; 3. general economic or business conditions, either nationally or in the state or regions in which we do business, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality, including as a result of lower prices in the real estate market, or a reduced demand for credit; 4. legislative or regulatory changes may adversely affect the businesses in which we are engaged; and 5. continued downturns in the securities markets Our management believes the forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, you should not place undue reliance on them. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many of the factors that will determine our future results and share value are beyond our ability to control or predict. We undertake on obligation to update forward-looking statements. NET INCOME. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, Pacific's net income was $2,727,000 compared to $2,888,000 for the same period in 2001, a decrease of $161,000. The most significant factor contributing to the decrease was a significant increase in the provision for credit losses. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2002 was $1,073,000, which compared to $1,046,000 during the same period in 2001. The increase was attributable to increased net interest income, lower loan loss provision and increased non-interest income. -9- NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2002 increased $34,000, or 1.2% compared to the same period in 2001. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 increased $153,000 over the comparable period in 2001. Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2002, decreased $471,000, or 10.7%, compared to the comparable period in 2001, and for the first nine months of 2002 decreased $2,305,000, or 16.4% from the same period in 2001. The lower interest rates earned on loans and securities during the nine month period ending September 30, 2002 was the primary reason for the decline in interest income. In addition, federal funds sold decreased during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 resulting in decreases of $116,000 and $251,000, respectively, in interest income compared to the same periods in 2001. Average total loans outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, and September 30, 2001, were $179,833,000, and $172,600,000, respectively, or an increase of 4.2%. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $493,000, or 32%, compared to the same period in 2001, and decreased $2,458,000, or 45.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 over the comparable period in 2001. Average interest-bearing deposit balances for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001 were $181,987,000 and $180,469,000, respectively, while short term borrowings and federal funds purchased for the periods were $144,000 and $4,098,000, respectively, a decrease of 96.5% over the 2001 period. Average long term borrowings for the periods were $5,130,000 and none, respectively. PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES. The allowance for credit losses reflects management's current estimate of the amount required to absorb losses on existing loans and commitments to extend credit. Loans deemed uncollectible are charged against and reduce the allowance. Periodically, a provision for credit losses is charged to current expense. This provision acts to replenish the allowance for credit losses and to maintain the allowance at a level that management deems adequate. There is no precise method of predicting specific loan losses or amounts that ultimately may be charged off on segments of the loan portfolio. The determination that a loan may become uncollectible, in whole or in part, is a matter of judgment. Similarly, the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses can be determined only on a judgmental basis, after full review, including (a) consideration of economic conditions and the effect on particular industries and specific borrowers; (b) a review of borrowers' financial data, together with industry data, the competitive situation, the borrowers' management capabilities and other factors; (c) a continuing evaluation of the loan portfolio, including monitoring by lending officers and staff credit personnel of all loans which are identified as being of less than acceptable quality; (d) an in-depth appraisal, on a monthly basis, of all loans judged to present a possibility of loss (if, as a result of such monthly appraisals, the loan is judged to be not fully collectible, the carrying value of the loan is reduced to that portion considered collectible); and (e) an evaluation of the underlying collateral for secured lending, including the use of independent appraisals of real estate properties securing loans. A formal analysis of the adequacy of the allowance is conducted monthly and is reviewed by the Board of Directors. Based on this analysis, management considers the allowance for credit losses to be adequate. Periodic provisions for loan losses are made to maintain the allowance for credit losses at an appropriate level. The provisions are based on an analysis of various factors including historical -10- loss experience based on volumes and types of loans, volumes and trends in delinquencies and non-accrual loans, trends in portfolio volume, results of internal and independent external credit reviews, and anticipated economic conditions. During the three months ended September 30, 2002, no provision was provided for possible credit losses, compared to $98,000 provided in the same period in 2001. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002 $954,000 was provided for possible credit losses compared to $298,000 for the comparable period in 2001. The higher provision in 2002 results from increased net charge-offs experienced in 2002. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, net charge-offs were $517,000, compared to net charge-offs of $496,000 during the same period in 2001. The charge-offs for the period ending September 30, 2002 are primarily related to commercial real estate and commercial loan write downs of $388,942. At September 30, 2002, the allowance for credit losses stood at $2,546,000 compared to $2,109,000 at December 31, 2001, and $1,828,000 at September 30, 2001. The ratio of the allowance to total loans outstanding was 1.40%, 1.19% and 1.07%, respectively, at September 30, 2002, December 31, 2001, and September 30, 2001. Management considers the allowance for possible credit losses to be adequate for the periods indicated. NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND FORECLOSED REAL ESTATE OWNED. Non-performing assets totaled $2,651,000 at September 30, 2002. This represents 1.46% of total loans, compared to $2,373,000 or 1.34% at December 31, 2001, and $2,825,000 or 1.65% at September 30, 2001. The primary reason for the increase during the period ended September 30, 2002, was placement of a commercial real estate loan in non-accrual status. Foreclosed real estate decreased $719,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2002, as a result of the sale of a commercial real estate property. Based on current analysis, management believes losses associated with non-accrual loans will be minimal. ANALYSIS OF NON-PERFORMING ASSETS SEPTEMBER 30 DECEMBER 31 SEPTEMBER 30 (in thousands) 2002 2001 2001 Accruing loans past due 90 days or more $ -- $79 $342 Non-accrual loans 2,330 1,254 981 Foreclosed real estate 321 1,040 1,502 ----- ----- ----- TOTAL $2,651 $2,373 $2,825 NON-INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSES. Non-interest income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 increased $38,000 and $533,000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2001. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $76,000 and $225,000 compared to the same three and nine month periods in 2001, due primarily to the new customer overdraft protection program implemented mid 2001. Mortgage loan origination fees decreased $13,000 and $27,000 compared to the same periods in 2001. Gain on sale of foreclosed real estate was -11- $19,000 and $160,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002, compared to none for the same periods in 2001 due to the sale of three foreclosed properties. Other operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2002 decreased $47,000 compared to the same period in 2001 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 increased $175,000 compared to the same period in 2001, primarily due to income from operations on real estate owned and earnings on bank owned life insurance. Non-interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 increased $87,000 and $212,000, respectively, compared to the same period in 2001. For the three-month period in 2002, salaries and benefits increased $108,000, occupancy expense increased $4,000, and other expenses decreased $25,000, compared to the same period in 2001. The increase in salaries and benefits was primarily due to increased staffing levels. Increased maintenance costs were the reason for the increase in occupancy expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, salaries and benefits increased $72,000, occupancy expense increased $18,000 due to maintenance costs, and other expenses increased $122,000 related primarily to operations on real estate owned. INCOME TAXES. The federal income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 was $1,168,000, a decrease of $21,000 compared to the same period in 2001. FINANCIAL CONDITION. Total assets were $270,253,000 at September 30, 2002, an increase of $26,636,000, or 10.9%, over year-end 2001. This is primarily due to deposit growth and an increase in long-term borrowings of $11,000,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Deposit growth typically increases during the third quarter of each year due to the large number of bank customers active in various tourism activities in the Bank's market area. In addition, the Bank attracted additional deposit balances during a deposit campaign during the first part of 2002. The proceeds of the borrowings along with other available short-term liquid assets were used to fund loans and purchase taxable investment securities. The Bank sold its Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock during the third quarter of 2002, in accordance with the FHLB stock redemption plan. Loans were $180,552,000 at September 30, 2002, an increase of $6,057,000, or 3.5%, over year-end 2001. Investment securities totaled $61,747,000 at September 30, 2002, an increase of $25,129,000, or 68.6%, over year-end 2001. Total deposits were $230,570,000 at September 30, 2002, an increase of $15,926,000, or 7.4%, compared to December 31, 2001. LOANS.

The Company has no brokered deposits. It generally has been a net seller of federal funds. When necessary, liquidity can be increased by taking advances available from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY. Total shareholders' equity was $26,518,000 at September 30, 2002, an increase of $3,004,000, or 12.8%, compared to December 31, 2001. The increase was due to net income and an increase in the fair value of securities available for sale. Book value per share increased to $10.64 at September 30, 2002 compared to $9.44 at December 31, 2001. Book value is calculated by dividing total equity capital by total shares outstanding. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Interest rate, credit, and operations risks are the most significant market risks which affect the Company's performance. The Company relies on loan review, prudent loan underwriting standards and an adequate allowance for possible credit losses to mitigate credit risk. An asset/liability management simulation model is used to measure interest rate risk. The model produces regulatory oriented measurements of interest rate risk exposure. The model quantifies interest rate risk through simulating forecasted net interest income over a 12 month time period under various interest rate scenarios, as well as monitoring the change in the present value of equity under the same rate scenarios. The present value of equity is defined as the difference between the market value of assets less current liabilities. By measuring the change in the present value of equity under various rate scenarios, management is able to identify interest rate risk that may not be evident in changes in forecasted net interest income. The Company is currently asset sensitive, meaning that interest earning assets mature or re-price more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities in a given period. Therefore, a significant increase in market rates of interest could improve net interest income. Conversely, a decreasing rate environment may adversely affect net interest income. It should be noted that the simulation model does not take into account future management actions that could be undertaken should actual market rates change during the year. An important point should be kept in mind; the model simulation results are not exact measures of the Company's actual interest rate risk. They are rather only indicators of rate risk exposure, based on assumptions produced in a simplified modeling environment designed to heighten sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The rate risk exposure results of the simulation model typically are greater than the Company's actual rate risk. That is due to the conservative -13- modeling environment, which generally depicts a worst-case situation. Management has assessed the results of the simulation reports as of September 30, 2002, and believes that there has been no material change since December 31, 2001. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information the Company must disclose in its reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis.
