Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
JADE Financial Corp. (the "Holding Company") was
incorporated under Pennsylvania law in July 1998 by IGA Federal
Savings in connection with the conversion of the Company from a
savings institution to a federally chartered capital stock
savings bank, the issuance of the Company's stock to the Holding
Company and the offer and sale of the Holding Company's common
stock by the Holding Company (the "Conversion"). Upon
consummation of the Conversion on October 4, 1999, the Holding
Company became the holding company for the Company. See Note 2
for a more detailed description of the mutual to stock
conversion. No pro forma effect has been given to the sale of
the Holding Company's common stock in the Conversion.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the
Holding Company have been prepared in accordance with
instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting
solely of normally recurring adjustments) which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for fair statement of results
for the interim periods.
The results of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000. The
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and
notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1999, contained in
the Holding Company's Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities
Exchange Commission on March 31, 2000.
2. CONVERSION TO CAPITAL STOCK FORM OF OWNERSHIP:
On May 26, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company
adopted a Plan of Conversion to convert from a federal mutual
savings bank to a federal capital stock savings bank. The
conversion was accomplished through the formation of the Holding
Company in July, 1998, the adoption of a federal stock charter,
and the sale of all of the Company's stock to the Holding Company
on October 4, 1999.
A subscription offering ("offering") of the shares of common
stock of the Holding Company was conducted whereby the shares
were offered initially to eligible account holders, the Company's
Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), supplemental eligible
account holders and other members of the Company (collectively
"subscribers"). During the offering, subscribers submitted
orders for common stock along with full payment for the order in
either cash, by an authorization to withdraw funds for payment
from an existing deposit account at the Company upon issuance of
stock, or a combination of cash and account withdrawal.
Subscription funds received in connection with the offering were
placed in segregated savings accounts in the Company. For these
orders that were to be funded through account withdrawals, the
Company placed "holds" on those accounts, restricting withdrawal
of any amount which would reduce the account balance below the
amount of the order. At September 30, 1999, the Company held
$12.0 million in subscription segregated savings accounts and had
restricted withdrawals from deposit accounts in the amount of
$2.0 million.
The Holding Company issued 1,872,923 shares in connection
with the Conversion. Gross proceeds from the offering were
$14,500,024, which includes the $8.00 value of the 145,000 shares
issued to the IGA Employee Stock Ownership Plan and 60,420 shares
sold to the Company for transfer to the IGA Charitable
Foundation.
The Company issued all its outstanding capital stock to the
Holding Company in exchange for approximately one-half of the net
proceeds. The Holding Company accounted for the purchase in a
manner similar to a pooling of interests whereby assets and
liabilities of the Company maintain their historical cost basis
in the consolidated company.
3. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE:
Earnings per common share for the quarter ended March 31,
1999 is not applicable, as IGA Federal Savings' (the Bank's)
conversion from mutual-to-stock form was not completed until
October 4, 1999. Presented below is information with respect to
the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the
three months ended March 31, 2000.

4. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME:
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income, will be effective for the Bank
for the year beginning July 1, 1998, and establishes reporting
and display of comprehensive income in the financial statements.
Comprehensive income represents net earnings and certain amounts
reported directly in stockholders' equity, such as the net
unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities. The
Bank adopted SFAS No. 130 effective June 30, 1998.
The Company's comprehensive income for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999 are as follows:
Three Months Ended

Net income $140 $ 130
Unrealized holding gains (losses)

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME $ 50 $(180)
5. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS:
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income, is effective for the Bank for the
period beginning July 1, 1998, and establishes reporting and
display of comprehensive income in the financial statements.
Comprehensive income represents net earnings and certain amounts
reported directly in stockholders' equity, such as the net
unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities. The
Bank adopted SFAS No. 130 effective June 30, 1998.
SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivation Instruments and
Hedging Activities, will be effective for the Bank for years
beginning July 1, 1999. The Bank currently has no activity
subject to SFAS 133.
In October 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 134, Accounting
for Mortgage-Backed Securities Retained after the Securitization
of Mortgage Loans Held-for-Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise.
SFAS No. 134 changes the way mortgage banking firms account for
certain securities and other interests they retain after
securitizing mortgage loans that were held-for-sale. Under
current practice, a bank that securitizes credit card receivables
has a choice in how it classifies any retained securities based
on its intent and ability to hold or sell those investments.
SFAS No. 134 gives the mortgage banking firms the opportunity to
apply the same intent-based accounting that is applied by other
companies. SFAS No. 134 will be effective for the fiscal quarter
beginning after December 15, 1998. Management of the Bank
anticipates that the implementation of SFAS No. 134 will not have
a material impact on the Bank's financial condition or results of
operations.

COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT MARCH 31, 2000 AND
DECEMBER 31, 1999
Our total assets increased $12.1 million from $199.6 million
to $211.7 million or 6.06% from December 31, 1999 to March 31,
2000. Our total liabilities increased $12.1 million from $172.3
million to $184.4 million or 7.02% from December 31, 1999 to
March 31, 2000. We had $15.0 million borrowed from the Federal
Home Loan Bank as of March 31, 2000. The increase in assets and
liabilities at March 31, 2000 compared to December 31, 1999 is
primarily attributable to a temporary increase in deposit
balances. In mid March, Peco Energy paid performance bonuses to
their employees who in turn deposited approximately $8.0 million
in savings, checking and money market accounts at IGA Federal
Savings. Due to the increase in deposit balances, Cash and Cash
equivalents increase $9.9 million from $13.2 million at
December 31, 1999 to $23.1 million at March 31, 2000.
Total loans increase $2.5 million from $115.3 million to
$117.8 million or 2.17 % from December 31, 1999 to March 31,
2000. The increase was primarily the result of increased loan
orginations as illustrated by the following loan composition

Net Income:
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was
$140,000. Net income for the comparable period in 1999 was
$130,000. The increase in the current period when compared to
the prior period was due to a significant increase in lending
from the prior period as average loans increased by $10.1 million
or 9.52% from $106.0 million for the three months ended March 31,
1999 to $116.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000.
However, we did experience a decrease of approximately 8 basis
points in our net interest spread because the cost of our
deposits increased more rapidly than the rates we earned on our
loans and investments.
Core earnings, defined as pretax earnings adjusted for
securities sales transactions and unusual or non-recurring
expense or income items, were $153,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 compared to $188,000 in the prior year period.
The following table summarizes the components of adjusted
pretax core earnings:
Three Months Ended
March 31,
2000 1999
(Dollars in Thousands)
Net interest income $1,777 $1,617
Provision for loan losses 315 135
Noninterest income excluding
gains and losses 443 224
Noninterest expense 1,752 1,518
ADJUSTED PRETAX CORE EARNINGS $ 153 $ 188
INTEREST INCOME. Total interest income increased $401,000
or 13.63% from $2.9 million for the first quarter of 1999
compared to $3.3 million for the first quarter of 2000. This
increase resulted from an increase in average earning assets for
the comparable periods.
NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income increased $160,000
or 9.89% from $1.6 million for the first quarter of 1999 compared
to $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2000. This increase is
attributable to a higher volume of loan originations and an
increase in the average investment balances.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Total interest expense increased $241,000
for the first quarter of 2000 compared to the first quarter of
1999. This increase was mainly attributable to a general
interest rate environment thereby increasing our cost on borrowed
funds.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The provision for loan losses
increased by $180,000 or 133.33% for the first quarter of 2000
compared to the first quarter of 1999. This increase reflects
anticipated changes in the company's loan portfolio from that of
a traditional consumer focused credit union to a more diversified
banking company. We do not foresee the need to increase the
provision significantly in the future. During the three months
ended March 31, 2000, the Company had charge-offs of $92,284 and
recoveries of $45,104. At March 31, 2000, the Company's
allowance for loan losses totaled $1.6 million which was 1.32% of
total loans.
NONINTEREST INCOME. Noninterest income increased $219,000
or 97.77% to $443,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000
from $224,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The
increase was due primarily to income from the Bank Owned Life
Insurance (BOLI), title insurance income, and increased fees from
debit card transactions.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE. Total noninterest expense increased
$234,000 or 15.42% to $1.8 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 from $1.5 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. This increase resulted primarily from an
increase in compensation and employee benefits due to normal
salary increases and the expense of the Employee Stock Ownership
Plan ("ESOP") as well as an increase in professional fees.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The provision for federal income
taxes decreased relative to the amount of taxable income for the
period.
