                         REPORTS MARCH 31, 2005 RESULTS

BCSB Bankcorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: BCSB), the holding company for Baltimore County
Savings Bank, FSB, reported earnings of $96,000 or $0.02 per basic and diluted
share for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. This compared to $161,000 or $0.03
per basic and diluted share for the same period in 2004. At March 31, 2005,
total assets equaled $790.4 million as compared to $773.6 million on September
30, 2004, an increase of $16.8 million. Total deposits rose to $586.4 million as
of March 31, 2005 as compared to $580.6 million on September 30, 2004 and
increase of $5.8 million.

The Company announced that it received in April 2005 a one time gain of
approximately $525,000 after tax which will have a positive impact on the third
quarter of fiscal year 2005. The one time gain is associated with Harland
Financial Solutions, Inc.'s cash acquisition of Intrieve Incorporated. This
stock acquisition included the shares owned by Baltimore County Savings Bank,
FSB, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary. The Company could realize additional
gains of up to $60,000 after tax during the year following the closing of the
acquisition if certain additional criteria specified in the acquisition
agreement are satisfied.

The Bank also announced that a new full service branch to be located along
Lakeside Boulevard in Owings Mills, Maryland will begin construction in the
summer of 2005. When complete, the new Owings Mills branch will be the Bank's
eighteenth located throughout the Baltimore metropolitan region.
