BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance 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. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the periods. The results of operations for the three month period ended December 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2007 or any other period. The consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the First Keystone Financial, Inc. (the "Company") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2006. 2. INVESTMENT SECURITIES The amortized cost and approximate fair value of investment securities available for sale and held to maturity, by contractual maturities, are as follows: December 31, 2006 ------------------------------------------------- Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Approximate Cost Gain Loss Fair Value --------- ---------- ---------- ----------- Available for Sale: U.S. Government and agency bonds: 5 to 10 years $ 2,000 $ -- $ (24) $ 1,976 Municipal obligations: 5 to 10 years 1,010 18 -- 1,028 Over 10 years 8,912 158 (12) 9,058 Corporate bonds: 1 to 5 years 1,000 33 -- 1,033 5 to 10 years 2,000 -- (162) 1,838 Over 10 years 7,869 11 (42) 7,838 Mutual funds 9,341 -- (295) 9,046 Other equity investments 1,040 137 -- 1,177 ------- ---- ----- ------- Total $33,172 $357 $(535) $32,994 ======= ==== ===== ======= Held to Maturity: Municipal obligations: 5 to 10 years $ 3,257 $ 15 $ -- $ 3,272 ======= ==== ===== ======= -5- Provided below is a summary of investment securities available for sale and held to maturity which were in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2006.

Management believes that the estimated fair value of the securities disclosed above is primarily dependent upon the movement in market interest rates particularly given the negligible inherent credit risk associated with these securities. These investment securities are comprised of securities that are rated investment grade by at least one bond credit rating service. Although the fair value will fluctuate as the market interest rates move, management believes that these fair values will recover as the underlying portfolios mature and are reinvested in market rate yielding investments. Mutual funds in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer consist of two funds primarily invested in asset-backed securities and have an aggregate depreciation of 3.2%. Corporate bonds in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer consist of four debt securities and have an aggregate depreciation of 2.8%. The Company has the ability and intent to hold all of these securities until such time as the value recovers or the securities mature. Management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of December 31, 2006 represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The amortized cost and approximate fair value of investment securities available for sale and held to maturity, by contractual maturities, are as follows: September 30, 2006 ------------------------------------------------- Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Approximate Cost Gain Loss Fair Value --------- ---------- ---------- ----------- Available for Sale: U.S. Government bonds: 1 to 5 years $ 2,000 $ -- $ (24) $ 1,976 Municipal obligations: 5 to 10 years 1,010 21 -- 1,031 Over 10 years 8,910 181 (15) 9,076 Corporate bonds: 1 to 5 years 1,000 39 -- 1,039 5 to 10 years 2,000 -- (183) 1,817 Over 10 years 7,941 11 (39) 7,913 Mutual funds 9,229 -- (276) 8,953 Other equity investments 1,040 547 (6) 1,581 ------- ---- ----- ------- Total $33,130 $799 $(543) $33,386 ======= ==== ===== ======= Held to Maturity: Municipal obligations: 5 to 10 years $ 3,257 $ 11 $ -- $ 3,268 ======= ==== ===== ======= -6- Provided below is a summary of investment securities available for sale and held to maturity which were in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2006.

Management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of December 31, 2006 represents an other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized losses reported for mortgage-related securities relate primarily to securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation and private institutions. The majority of the unrealized losses associated with mortgage-related securities are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and not due to the deterioration of the creditworthiness of the issuer. The Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities until the securities mature or recover in value. Mortgage-related securities available for sale and mortgage-related securities held to maturity are summarized as follows: September 30, 2006 ------------------------------------------------- Gross Gross Amortized Unrealized Unrealized Approximate Cost Gain Loss Fair Value --------- ---------- ---------- ----------- Available for Sale: FHLMC pass-through certificates $ 7,290 $ 1 $ (67) $ 7,224 FNMA pass-through certificates 28,037 34 (474) 27,597 GNMA pass-through certificates 2,966 4 (63) 2,907 Collateralized mortgage obligations 33,188 24 (910) 32,302 ------- --- ------- ------- Total $71,481 $63 $(1,514) $70,030 ======= === ======= ======= Held to Maturity: FHLMC pass-through certificates $14,376 $ 6 $ (450) $13,932 FNMA pass-through certificates 23,826 3 (751) 23,078 Collateralized mortgage obligations 153 -- -- 153 ------- --- ------- ------- Total $38,355 $ 9 $(1,201) $37,163 ======= === ======= ======= Provided below is a summary of mortgage-related securities available for sale and held to maturity which were in an unrealized loss position at September 30, 2006.

At December 31, 2006, non-performing loans primarily consisted of six single-family residential mortgage loans aggregating $128, seven commercial business loans aggregating $1,276 and nine consumer loans aggregating $24. At December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2006, the Company had impaired loans with a total recorded investment of $574 and $25, respectively. No interest income was recognized on these impaired loans during the three months ended December 31, 2006. Interest income of approximately $18 was not recognized as interest income due to the non-accrual status of such loans for the three months ended December 31, 2006. Loans collectively evaluated for impairment include residential real estate, home equity (including lines of credit) and consumer loans and are not included in the data that follow: December 31, ------------- 2006 2005 ---- ------ Impaired loans with related allowance for loan losses under SFAS No. 114 $ -- $3,837 Impaired loans with no related allowance for loan losses under SFAS No. 114 574 897 ---- ------ Total impaired loans $574 $4,734 ==== ====== Valuation allowance related to impaired loans $ -- $ 959 ==== ====== The following is an analysis of the allowance for loan losses: Three Months Ended December 31, --------------- 2006 2005 ------ ------ Balance beginning of period $3,367 $3,475 Provisions charged to income 75 45 Charge-offs (12) (4) Recoveries 25 9 ------ ------ Total $3,455 $3,525 ====== ====== -9- 5.

EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, while diluted net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common share equivalents that would arise from the exercise of dilutive securities. All dilutive shares consist of options the exercise price of which is lower than the market price of the common stock covered thereby at the dates presented. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, anti-dilutive shares consisted of options covering 2,221 shares. The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") is as follows: Three Months Ended December 31, ----------------------- 2006 2005 ---------- ---------- Numerator $ 88 $ 445 Denominators: Basic shares outstanding 1,992,453 1,888,344 Effect of dilutive securities 19,278 27,457 ---------- ---------- Dilutive shares outstanding 2,011,731 1,915,801 ========== ========== Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.04 $ 0.24 Diluted $ 0.04 $ 0.23 7.

There were no new grants of stock options or other share-based payments during the three months ended December 31, 2006 and, therefore, additional disclosures for share-based compensation were omitted due to immateriality. At December 31, 2006, 61,447 stock options were outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $13.17. The weighted average remaining contractual term was approximately 3.4 years for all options outstanding and 4.0 years for the 56,492 options exercisable as of December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2006 there was approximately $34 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested options granted under the stock option plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years. -10- 8. EQUITY OFFERING The Company conducted a private placement of 400,000 shares of common stock resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $6.5 million. The offering was undertaken by the Company to strengthen its capital position in accordance with a capital plan designed to maintain the Company's capital at prudent levels as well as reduce its debt-to-equity ratio below 50%. The Company intends to use all of the net proceeds of $5.8 million to redeem a portion of its outstanding trust preferred securities in June 2007. The capital plan was adopted by the Company in April 2006 pursuant to a supervisory agreement between the Company and the OTS in February 2006. The shares sold in the private placement were offered to accredited investors in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and the securities may not be offered or sold absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Company intends to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register such shares. 9. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum regulatory capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth below) of tangible and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to adjusted assets (as defined), and of Tier I and total capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2006, that the Bank meets all regulatory capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. The Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the following table. REQUIRED FOR WELL CAPITALIZED CAPITAL ADEQUACY UNDER PROMPT ACTUAL PURPOSE CORRECTIVE ACTION --------------- ---------------- ----------------- AMOUNT RATIO AMOUNT RATIO AMOUNT RATIO ------- ----- -------- ----- -------- ------ At December 31, 2006: Core Capital (to Adjusted Tangible Assets) $48,151 9.27% $20,721 4.0% $25,974 5.0% Tier I Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) 48,151 14.33 N/A N/A 20,168 6.0 Total Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) 51,606 15.35 26,890 8.0 33,613 10.0 Tangible Capital (to Tangible Assets) 48,074 9.26 7,791 1.5 N/A N/A At September 30, 2006: Core Capital (to Adjusted Tangible Assets) $47,771 9.15% $20,819 4.0% $26,096 5.0% Tier I Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) 47,771 13.96 N/A N/A 20,539 6.0 Total Capital (to Risk-Weighted Assets) 51,138 14.94 27,385 8.0 34,231 10.0 Tangible Capital (to Tangible Assets) 47,771 9.15 7,829 1.5 N/A N/A On February 13, 2006, the Bank entered into a supervisory agreement with the OTS. The supervisory agreement requires the Bank, among other things, to maintain minimum core capital and total risk-based capital ratios of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively. At December 31, 2006, the Bank was in compliance with such requirement. As a result of entering into and being subject to a supervisory agreement, the Bank is not deemed to be "well-capitalized" for purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations of the OTS even though the Bank's regulatory capital is in excess of all regulatory capital requirements. -11- 10. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140" ("SFAS No. 155.") SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," to permit fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument with an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, provided that the whole instrument is accounted for on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", to allow a qualifying special-purpose entity to hold a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year beginning after September 15, 2006 (October 1, 2007 for the Company) and does not expect to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140," ("SFAS No. 156"). SFAS No. 156 amends SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS No. 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in certain situations prescribed by SFAS No. 156. All separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities are to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, and SFAS No. 156 permits an entity to choose either the amortization method or fair value measurement method for subsequent measurement methods for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS No. 156 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The requirements for recognition and initial measurement of servicing assets and servicing liabilities should be applied prospectively to all transactions after the effective date of this statement. The Company adopted SFAS No. 156 for the fiscal year which began on October 1, 2006 and the Company believes it will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements". SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. The definition of fair value retains the exchange price notion in earlier definitions of fair value. SFAS No. 157 clarifies that the exchange price is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability in the market in which the reporting entity would transact for the asset or liability. The definition focuses on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability (an exit price), not the price that would be paid to acquire the asset or received to assume the liability (an entry price). SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the impact of this pronouncement but does not expect that the guidance will have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, "Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post-retirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)." For defined benefit post-retirement plans, SFAS 158 requires that the funded status be recognized in the statement of financial position, that assets and obligations that determine funded status be measured as of the end of the employer's fiscal year, and that changes in funded status be recognized in comprehensive income in the year the changes occur. SFAS 158 does not change the amount of net periodic benefit cost included in net income or address measurement issues related to defined benefit post-retirement plans. The requirement to recognize funded status is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. The requirement to measure assets and obligations as of the end of the employer's fiscal year is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Company has determined that the guidance provided by SFAS No. 158 does not have an impact on its stockholders' equity or on the Company's financial position or results of operations. -12- In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), "FASB Interpretation No. 48 - Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109". This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 or October 1, 2007 for the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pronouncement. In September 2006, the SEC Staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No.108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB No. 108"). SAB No. 108 requires the use of two alternative approaches in quantitatively evaluating materiality of misstatements. If the misstatement as quantified under either approach is material to the current year financial statements, the misstatement must be corrected. If the effect of correcting the prior year misstatements, if any, in the current year income statement is material, the prior year financial statements should be corrected. This guidance is effective for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2007. In the year of adoption, misstatements may be corrected by treating the misstatement as an accounting change and adjusting retained earnings rather than being included in the current year income statement. The Company has determined that the guidance provided by SAB No. 108 does not have a material effect on the current quarter's financial statements. -13- ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes certain "forward-looking statements" based on management's current expectations. The Company's actual results could differ materially, as such term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, from management's expectations. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding management's current intentions, beliefs or expectations as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based. These forward-looking statements are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are not subject to the Company's control. Stockholders and potential stockholders are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause future results to vary from current management expectations include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government, changes in tax policies, rates and regulations of federal, state and local tax authorities, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, the cost of funds, demand for loan products, demand for financial services, competition, changes in the quality or composition of the Company's loan and investment portfolios, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, availability and cost of energy resources and other economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's operations, markets, products, services and fees. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results that occur subsequent to the date such forward-looking statements are made. GENERAL The Company is a Pennsylvania corporation and sole stockholder of First Keystone Bank, a federally chartered stock savings bank (the "Bank"), which converted to the stock form of organization in January 1995. The Bank is a community-oriented bank emphasizing customer service and convenience. The Bank's primary business is attracting deposits from the general public and using those funds together with other available sources of funds, primarily borrowings, to originate loans. The Bank's management remains focused on its long-term strategic plan to continue to shift the Bank's loan composition toward commercial business, construction and home equity loans and lines of credit in order to provide a higher yielding loan portfolio with generally shorter contractual terms. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or comprehensive income, are considered critical accounting policies. In management's opinion, the most critical accounting policy affecting the Company's financial statements is the evaluation of the allowance for loan losses. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses at a level management believes is sufficient to provide for known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio that were both probable and reasonable to estimate. The allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because there is a large degree of judgment in (i) assigning individual loans to specific risk levels (pass, substandard, doubtful and loss), (ii) valuing the underlying collateral securing the loans, (iii) determining the appropriate reserve factor to be applied to specific risk levels for criticized and classified loans (special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss) and (iv) determining reserve factors to be applied to pass loans based upon loan type. Accordingly, there is a likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different, but reasonably plausible conditions or assumptions. The determination of the allowance for loan losses requires management to make significant estimates with respect to the amounts and timing of losses and market and economic conditions. Accordingly, a decline in the economy could increase loan delinquencies, foreclosures or repossessions resulting in increased charge-off amounts and the need for additional loan loss allowances in future periods. The Bank will continue to monitor and adjust its allowance for loan losses through the provision for loan losses as economic conditions and other factors dictate. Management reviews the allowance for loan losses generally on a monthly basis, but at a minimum at least quarterly. Although the Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at levels considered adequate to provide for the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated -14- amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods. In addition, the Bank's determination as to the amount of its allowance for loan losses is subject to review by its primary federal banking regulator, the OTS, as part of its examination process, which may result in additional allowances based upon the judgment and review of the OTS. SUPERVISORY AGREEMENTS On February 13, 2006, the Company and the Bank each entered into a supervisory agreement with the OTS which primarily addressed issues identified in the OTS' reports of examination of the Company's and the Bank's operations and financial condition conducted in 2005. Under the terms of the supervisory agreement between the Company and the OTS, the Company agreed to, among other things, (i) develop and implement a three-year capital plan designed to support the Company's efforts to maintain prudent levels of capital and to reduce its debt-to-equity ratio below 50%; (ii) not incur any additional debt without the prior written approval of the OTS; and (iii) not repurchase any shares of or pay any cash dividends on its common stock until the Company complied with certain conditions. Upon reducing its debt-to-equity below 50%, the Company may resume the payment of quarterly cash dividends at the lesser of the dividend rate in effect immediately prior to entering into the supervisory agreement ($0.11 per share) or 35% of its consolidated net income (on an annualized basis), provided that the OTS, upon review of prior notice from the Company of the proposed dividend, does not object to payment. Under the terms of the supervisory agreement between the Bank and the OTS, the Bank agreed to, among other things, (i) not grow in any quarter in excess of the greater of 3% of total assets (on an annualized basis) or net interest credited on deposit liabilities during such quarter; (ii) maintain its core capital and total risk-based capital in excess of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively; (iii) adopt revised policies and procedures governing commercial lending; (iv) conduct periodic reviews of its commercial loan department; (v) conduct periodic internal loan reviews; (vi) adopt a revised asset classification policy and (vii) not amend, renew or enter compensatory arrangements with senior executive officers and directors, subject to certain exceptions, without the prior approval of the OTS. As a result of the growth restriction imposed on the Bank, the Company's growth is currently and will continue to be substantially constrained unless and until the supervisory agreements are terminated or modified. As of March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006, the Bank exceeded the growth limitation contained in the supervisory agreement with the OTS described above. Subsequent to June 30, 2006, the Bank reduced its assets sufficiently to be below the June 30, 2006 limitation. The OTS advised the Bank that it will not take any regulatory action against the Bank provided it will be in compliance with the growth limitation as of September 30, 2006. The Bank complied with the growth restriction at September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2006. The Company recently underwent an examination by the OTS. In connection with such examination, the OTS reviewed the Company's and the Bank's compliance with the provisions of the supervisory agreements. Although the Company and the Bank were determined to be in full or partial compliance with substantially all of the provisions of the supervisory agreements, the examination did note a number of areas for improvement with respect to the Bank's loan underwriting, credit analysis and asset classification policies and procedures. In order to strengthen these areas, the Bank intends to hire a Chief Credit Officer. The Bank is aggressively addressing these areas for improvement in its lending operations in order to be in full compliance with the terms of the supervisory agreements as soon as possible. Except as described above, the Company believes it and the Bank are in material compliance with the supervisory agreements. The Company has submitted to and received from the OTS approval of a capital plan, which plan calls for an equity infusion in order to reduce the Company's debt-to-equity ratio below 50%. As part of its capital plan, the Company conducted a private placement of 400,000 shares of common stock, raising gross proceeds of approximately $6.5 million. The net proceeds of approximately $5.8 million will be used to reduce the amount of its outstanding trust preferred securities. The Company intends to use all of the net proceeds to redeem approximately $5.8 million of its floating-rate trust preferred securities in June 2007. As a result of such redemption, the Company's debt-to-equity ratio will be less than 50%. The Company believes it will be able to resume paying quarterly cash dividends in the quarter ending September 30, 2007. However, no assurances can be given that the Company will satisfy the conditions necessary to resume paying dividends or that the OTS will not object to the resumption of dividends or, if resumed, that the Company will be able to pay dividends at the same rate that it has historically paid or be able to continue to pay dividends. The Company and the Bank will make every effort to have -15- both supervisory agreements terminated or the operating restrictions substantially reduced by the end of 2007. However, no assurances can be given that either of such events will occur. COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT DECEMBER 31, 2006 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 Total assets of the Company decreased by $2.7 million from $523.0 million at September 30, 2006 to $520.3 million at December 31, 2006. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $8.1 million to $20.9 million at December 31, 2006 from $12.8 million at September 30, 2006. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to cash flows generated by loan repayments and, to a lesser extent, principal paydowns of mortgage-related securities. Loans receivable decreased by $6.2 million from $323.2 million at September 30, 2006 to $317.0 million at December 31, 2006 primarily as a result of the Company experiencing repayments within the commercial real estate loan portfolio. Deposits decreased $2.0 million, or 0.6%, from $358.8 million at September 30, 2006 to $356.8 million at December 31, 2006. The decrease in deposits resulted from a $2.6 million, or 1.5%, decrease in core deposits (which consist of passbook, money market, NOW and non-interest bearing accounts) partially offset by a $549,000, or 0.3%, increase in certificates of deposit. The decline in core deposits reflected the effects of competition as local competitors offered higher rates on these products. In addition, borrowings decreased $6.7 million, or 6.3%, from $107.2 million at September 30, 2006 as a result of excess cash flows reducing overnight borrowings. Stockholders' equity increased $5.7 million to $34.3 million primarily due to the Company's completion of the private equity offering raising net proceeds of approximately $5.8 million. See Note 8 of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company released 400,000 shares of common stock from the Company's treasury stock resulting in a reduction in treasury stock by $6.2 million. COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006 AND 2005 Net Income. Net income was $88,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 as compared to $445,000 for the same period in 2005. The $357,000, or 80.2%, decrease in net income for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was primarily due to a $318,000 decrease in net interest income combined with a $144,000 increase in non-interest expense partially offset by a $163,000 decrease in income tax expense. Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased $318,000, or 11.4%, to $2.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. The decrease was primarily due to a $941,000, or 25.0%, increase in interest expense which was the result of a $10.1 million, or 2.1%, increase in average interest-bearing liabilities combined with a 71 basis point increase in the weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended December 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to an $835,000, or 44.7%, increase in interest expense on deposits resulting from increases in market rates of interest as well as intense competition for such deposits in the Company's marketplace. Partially offsetting the increase in interest expense was a $623,000, or 9.5%, increase in interest income which was primarily due to an increase of $9.0 million, or 1.9%, in the average balance of interest-earning assets, combined with a 40 basis point (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) increase in weighted yield earned on interest-earning assets for the three months ended December 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. The interest rate spread and net interest margin, on a fully tax equivalent basis, were 2.11% and 2.10%, respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2006 as compared to 2.42% and 2.42%, respectively, for the same period in 2005. The decrease in the net interest margin was primarily due to the increase in the cost of funds due to the continued rise of market rates of interest on the short-term end of the yield curve which outpaced the increases in the yield on interest-earning assets. -16- The following table presents the average balances for various categories of assets and liabilities, and income and expense related to those assets and liabilities for the three months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. The adjustment of tax-exempt securities to a tax equivalent yield in the table below may be considered to include non-GAAP financial information. Management believes that it is a common practice in the banking industry to present net interest margin, net interest rate spread and net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis when a significant proportion of interest-earning assets are tax-free. Therefore, management believes, these measures provide useful information to investors by allowing them to make peer comparisons. A GAAP reconciliation also is included below.

The reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure from GAAP to non-GAAP is presented below. FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED --------------------------------------------- DECEMBER 31, 2006 DECEMBER 31, 2005 --------------------- --------------------- AVERAGE AVERAGE INTEREST YIELD/COST INTEREST YIELD/COST -------- ---------- -------- ---------- (Dollars in thousands) Investment securities - nontaxable $ 548 4.99% $ 600 5.08% Tax equivalent adjustments 69 86 ------ ------ Investment securities - nontaxable to a taxable equivalent yield $ 617 5.62% $ 686 5.81% ====== ====== Net interest income $2,461 $2,780 Tax equivalent adjustment 69 86 ------ ------ Net interest income, tax equivalent $2,530 $2,866 ====== ====== Net interest rate spread, no tax adjustment 2.05% 2.35% Net interest margin, no tax adjustment 2.04% 2.35% Provision for Loan Losses. Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level believed by management sufficient to cover all known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio which are both probable and reasonably estimable. Management's analysis includes consideration of the Company's historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Company, the amount of the Company's classified assets, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to the Company's primary market area, and other factors related to the collectibility of the Company's loan portfolio. For the three months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the provision for loan losses amounted to $75,000 and $45,000, respectively. The provision for loan loss was based on the Company's monthly review of the credit quality of its loan portfolio, the net charge-offs during the first quarter of fiscal 2006 and other factors. At December 31, 2006, non-performing assets increased $1.2 million to $3.9 million, or 0.7%, of total assets, from $2.8 million at September 30, 2006. The increase in non-performing assets was primarily the result of a $554,000 increase in nonaccrual commercial business loans. In addition, the increase was due to a $702,000 increase in commercial loans that are 90 days past due and still accruing which the Company is in the progress of refinancing. The coverage ratio, which is the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans, was 242.0% and 1,215.6% at December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2006, respectively. Included in non-performing assets was $2.4 million of real estate owned consisting of a commercial real estate property. During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company transferred to real estate owned a restaurant located in Chesapeake City, Maryland at its approximate fair value of $2.7 million resulting in the Company's charging off $1.1 million against the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent to December 31, 2006, the property was sold for $2.7 million which will result in the recognition of a pre-tax gain on the sale of $61,000 during the quarter ending March 31, 2007. Management continues to review its loan portfolio to determine the extent, if any, to which further additional loss provisions may be deemed necessary. There can be no assurance that the allowance for losses will be adequate to cover losses which may in fact be realized in the future and that additional provisions for losses will not be required. Non-interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $28,000, or 3.6%, to $747,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. The decrease was primarily due to a $20,000, or 17.1%, decrease in other income resulting from lower revenues generated in insurance products. Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $144,000, or 4.8%, during the three months ended December 31, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. The increase was primarily due to increases of $69,000 and $48,000 in professional fees and real estate owned expenses, respectively. The increase in professional fees was related to -18- ongoing efforts to comply with the supervisory agreement. The increase in real estate owned expenses related to the maintenance of the commercial real estate located in Chesapeake City, Maryland referenced above. In addition, the Company incurred increases of $26,000 and $18,000 in federal deposit insurance premiums and data processing expenses, respectively. Income Tax Expense. The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $91,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 as compared to recognition of income tax expense of $72,000, or 13.9%, of pre-tax income for the same period in 2005. The primary reason for the recognition of an income tax benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was the reduction in income before income taxes combined with the effects of non-taxable earning assets. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization, prepayment and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-related securities, sales of loans, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, borrowing and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-related securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. In addition, the Company invests excess funds in overnight deposits and other short-term interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. The Company has been able to generate sufficient cash through its deposits as well as borrowings to satisfy its funding commitments. At December 31, 2006, the Company had short-term borrowings (due within one year or currently callable by the FHLBank) outstanding of $100.4 million, all of which consisted of advances from the FHLBank Pittsburgh. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits. On a longer term basis, the Company maintains a strategy of investing in various lending products, mortgage-related securities and investment securities. The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and savings withdrawals, fund loan commitments and maintain a portfolio of mortgage-related and investment securities. At December 31, 2006, total approved loan commitments outstanding amounted to $5.5 million, not including loans in process. At the same date, commitments under unused lines of credit amounted to $38.1 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2006 totaled $126.5 million. Based upon the Company's historical experience, management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with the Company. The Bank is required under applicable federal banking regulations to maintain tangible capital equal to at least 1.5% of its adjusted total assets, core capital equal to at least 4.0% of its adjusted total assets and total capital to at least 8.0% of its risk-weighted assets. At December 31, 2006, the Bank had tangible capital and core capital equal to 9.3% of adjusted total assets and total capital equal to 15.4% of risk-weighted assets. However, as a result of the supervisory agreement discussed in Item 2 of Part I hereof, the Bank is required to maintain core and risk-based capital in excess of 7.5% and 12.5%, respectively. The Bank is in compliance with such requirements imposed by the supervisory agreement. In addition, as a result of entering into such agreement, the Bank is no longer deemed to be "well-capitalized" for purposes of the prompt corrective action regulations of the OTS. Under the terms of the supervisory agreement, the Company submitted a capital plan to the OTS. As part of the capital plan, which was approved by the OTS, the Company conducted a private placement of 400,000 shares of common stock, raising gross proceeds of approximately $6.5 million. The net proceeds of approximately $5.8 million will be used to reduce the amount of its outstanding trust preferred securities. The Company intends to use all of the net proceeds to redeem approximately $5.8 million of its trust preferred securities in June 2007. -19- IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related notes presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles which requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the price of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation to a larger extent than interest rates. In the current interest rate environment, liquidity and the maturity structure of the Company's assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK For a discussion of the Company's asset and liability management policies, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation" in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended September 30, 2006. The Company utilizes reports prepared by the OTS to measure interest rate risk. Using data from the Bank's quarterly thrift financial reports, the OTS models the net portfolio value ("NPV") of the Bank over a variety of interest rate scenarios. The NPV is defined as the present value of expected cash flows from existing assets less the present value of expected cash flows from existing liabilities plus the present value of net expected cash inflows from existing off-balance sheet contracts. The model assumes instantaneous, parallel shifts in the U.S. Treasury Securities yield curve up to 300 basis points, and a decline of 200 basis points. The interest rate risk measures used by the OTS include an "Exposure Measure" or "Post-Shock" NPV ratio and a "Sensitivity Measure". The "Post-Shock" NPV ratio is the net present value as a percentage of assets over the various yield curve shifts. A low "Post-Shock" NPV ratio indicates greater exposure to interest rate risk and can result from a low initial NPV ratio or high sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The "Sensitivity Measure" is the decline in the NPV ratio, in basis points, caused by a 2% increase or decrease in rates, whichever produces a larger decline. The following sets forth the Bank's NPV as of December 31, 2006. Net Portfolio Value (Dollars in thousands) Changes in Net Rates in Dollar Percentage Portfolio Value As Basis Points Amount Change Change a % of Assets Change - ------------ ------- -------- ---------- ------------------ ------ 300 $44,450 $(23,501) (35)% 8.76% (392)bp 200 53,200 (14,750) (22) 10.29 (239)bp 100 61,556 (6,394) (9) 11.69 (100)bp 0 67,950 -- -- 12.68 -- (100) 71,912 3,962 6 13.24 56 bp (200) 73,282 5,332 8 13.36 68 bp -20- As of December 31, 2006, the Company's NPV was $68.0 million or 12.68% of the market value of assets. Following a 200 basis point increase in interest rates, the Company's "post shock" NPV would be $53.2 million or 10.29% of the market value of assets. The change in the NPV ratio or the Company's sensitivity measure was a decline of 239 basis points. ITEM 4.
