The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995, and is including this statement for the express purpose of availing itself of these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project" or similar expressions. The Company's ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's future activities and operating results include, but are not limited to, changes in: interest rates, general economic conditions, legislation, regulation, U.S. monetary and fiscal policies, the quality or composition of the Company's loan and investment portfolios, deposit flows, competition, demand for products and services and accounting policies, principles and guidelines. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. General First Federal Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") was organized under Delaware law in December 1998 by First Federal Bank (the "Bank") to be the savings and loan holding company of the Bank in connection with the Bank's April 13, 1999 conversion from mutual holding company form to the stock form of ownership (the "Conversion"). The Company's principal activity consists of ownership of all of the stock in the Bank. The net income of the Company is primarily derived from the operations of the Bank. In addition to the Bank, the Company owns Equity Services, Inc., a real estate development company and Mid-Iowa Security Corporation, which generates revenues primarily by providing real estate brokerage services. The Bank is a federally chartered stock savings bank headquartered in Sioux City, Iowa. The Bank is the successor of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Sioux City, which was founded in 1923. The Company's results of operations are primarily dependent on its net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities and interest expense paid on deposits and borrowings. The Company's net income also is affected by its provision for loan losses, as well as the amount of noninterest income, including loan fees and service charges, and noninterest expense, such as salaries and employee benefits, deposit insurance premiums, occupancy and equipment costs and income taxes. Earnings of the Company also are affected significantly by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities. Business Strategy The Company's current business strategy is to operate as a well-capitalized, profitable and independent community savings bank dedicated to providing quality banking services to its customers. The Company has sought to implement this strategy in recent years by: (1) closely monitoring the needs of customers; (2) emphasizing family financial services such as residential mortgage loans, consumer loans and various checking and savings products; (3) offering commercial real estate loans and small business lending services; (4) monitoring, with the intention of reducing, interest rate risk exposure; (5) controlling operating expenses; and (6) maintaining strong asset quality. 4 Average Balance Sheet The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company's average balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated and the average yields earned and rates paid. Such yields and costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Average balances are daily averages.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $54.7 million, or 70.2%, to $23.2 million at June 30, 2002 from $78.9 million at June 30, 2001 as the Company used funds from interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions to purchase relatively higher-yielding investment securities and other assets. The Company purchased $52.0 million and $83.0 million, respectively, of securities held-to-maturity and securities available-for-sale during fiscal 2002. The balance of securities held-to-maturity increased by $40.6 million, or 178.5%, to $63.3 million at June 30, 2002 from $22.7 million at June 30, 2001. The balance of securities available-for-sale increased by $4.7 million, or 5.4%, to $92.3 million at June 30, 2002 from $87.6 million at June 30, 2001 as proceeds from sales, calls and maturities largely offset purchases during the fiscal year. The Company purchased bank owned life insurance ("BOLI") in the amount of $7.0 million in November and December 2001. Largely due to the BOLI purchase, other assets increased by $6.4 million, or 93.1%, to $13.3 million at June 30, 2002 from $6.9 million at June 30, 2001. Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") stock decreased by $4.4 million, or 46.8%, to $5.0 at June 30, 2002 from $9.5 million at June 30, 2001 after the FHLB redeemed excess member stock during fiscal 2002. Deposit balances decreased by $16.1 million, or 3.3%, to $472.6 million at June 30, 2002 from $488.7 million at June 30, 2001 and accrued interest payable decreased by $2.0 million, or 35.9%, to $3.6 million at June 30, 2002 from $5.7 million at June 30, 2001 due to a decrease in the balance of certificates of deposit and in the average cost of deposits and borrowings in fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001. Partly offsetting the decrease in deposit balances was an increase in FHLB advances. The balance of advances from FHLB increased by $9.9 million, or 11.2%, to $99.1 million at June 30, 2002 from $89.1 million at June 30, 2001. 6 Stockholders' equity decreased by $1.3 million, or 1.8%, to $71.3 million at June 30, 2002 from $72.6 million at June 30, 2001. The decrease in stockholders' equity was largely due to a stock repurchase program under which 366,000 shares of Company common stock were repurchased during fiscal 2002 at a cost of $4.8 million, or $13.00 per share. In August 2002 the Company completed this stock repurchase program pursuant to which a total of 460,000 shares were repurchased and announced a new stock repurchase program pursuant to which the Company intends to repurchase up to 10% of its issued and outstanding shares, or up to 426,000 shares. Partially offsetting the decrease in stockholders' equity due to stock repurchases were earnings of $3.5 million and an increase of $834,000 in other comprehensive income. The increase in other comprehensive income was the result of an unrealized gain in the Company's available-for-sale portfolio that totaled $490,000 at June 30, 2002 as compared to an unrealized loss of $344,000 in that portfolio at June 30, 2001. Higher valuations for the available-for-sale portfolio occurred as market interest rates dropped after five Federal Reserve Board rate-cutting decisions between June 2001 and June 2002. Dividends declared during the year ended June 30, 2002 totaled $1.3 million excluding dividends paid on unallocated Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") shares. Comparison of Operating Results for Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 General. Net earnings totaled $3.5 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, for the year ended June 30, 2002 as compared to net earnings totaling $3.0 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the year ended June 30, 2001. The Company early adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets on July 1, 2001. As required by the Statement, amortization of goodwill was discontinued in fiscal 2002. Interest Income. Interest income decreased by $10.6 million, or 20.9%, to $40.0 million in fiscal 2002 from $50.6 million in fiscal 2001. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to a decrease in the balance of interest-earning assets. The average balance of interest-earning assets decreased by $73.6 million, or 11.3%, to $579.0 million in fiscal 2002 from $652.6 million in fiscal 2001. In addition, the average yield on interest-earning assets decreased by 84 basis points to 6.91% for fiscal 2002 from 7.75% for fiscal 2001 due to lower yields on interest-earning assets in the generally lower market interest rate environment and to changes in the mix of interest-earning assets. Interest income on loans receivable decreased by $6.8 million, or 17.1%, to $32.8 million for fiscal 2002 from $39.6 million for fiscal 2001. The decrease in interest income on loans receivable was primarily due to a decrease of $62.1 million, or 12.8%, in the average balance of loans receivable to $422.8 million for fiscal 2002 from $484.9 million for fiscal 2001. The decrease in the average balance of loans receivable for fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001 was largely due to a reduction in the Company's one-to-four family fixed-rate residential loan portfolio that resulted from the securitization and sale of $112.7 million of such loans in March 2001. The average yield on loans receivable decreased by 40 basis points to 7.76% for fiscal 2002 from 8.16% for fiscal 2001, which also contributed to the decrease in interest income on loans receivable. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") decreased by $106,000, or 4.0%, to $2.6 million in fiscal 2002 from $2.7 million in fiscal 2001. The decrease in interest income on MBS was primarily due to a decrease in the average yield on MBS. The average yield on MBS decreased by 136 basis points to 5.57% in fiscal 2002 from 6.93% in fiscal 2001. The decrease in the average yield on MBS was primarily due to purchases of MBS yielding relatively lower rates during fiscal 2002. In addition, adjustable-rate MBS repriced at lower rates in the generally lower market interest rate environment during fiscal 2002. Partly offsetting the decrease in yield on MBS was an increase in the average balance of those securities. The average balance of MBS increased by $7.5 million, or 19.5%, to $46.2 million for fiscal 2002 from $38.7 million for fiscal 2001. Interest income on investment securities decreased by $4.0 million, or 50.1%, to $4.0 million for fiscal 2002 from $7.9 million for fiscal 2001. The decrease in interest income on investment securities was primarily 7 due to a decrease of $36.7 million, or 30.7%, in the average balance of investment securities to $83.0 million in fiscal 2002 from $119.7 million in fiscal 2001. In addition, the average yield on investment securities decreased by 185 basis points to 4.77% for fiscal 2002 from 6.62% for fiscal 2001. Interest income on other interest-earning assets increased by $292,000, or 72.4%, to $695,000 for fiscal 2002 from $403,000 for fiscal 2001 due to an increase in the average balance of such assets. The average balance of other interest-earning assets increased by $17.7 million, or 189.7%, to $27.0 million for fiscal 2002 from $9.3 million for fiscal 2001 due to increased liquidity in fiscal 2002. Partly offsetting the increases in the average balance of other interest-earning assets was a decrease in the average yield. The average yield on other interest-earning assets decreased by 175 basis points to 2.58% in fiscal 2002 from 4.33% in fiscal 2001 in the generally lower market interest rate environment in the current fiscal year period. Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $9.3 million, or 28.9%, to $22.9 million in fiscal 2002 from $32.3 million in fiscal 2001. The decrease in interest expense was due to a decrease of 111 basis points in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 4.20% for fiscal 2002 from 5.31% for fiscal 2001 and to a decrease of $61.2 million in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities to $546.0 million for fiscal 2002 from $607.2 million for fiscal 2001. Interest expense on deposits decreased by $5.1 million, or 22.3%, to $17.9 million in fiscal 2002 from $23.1 million in fiscal 2001. The decrease in interest expense on deposits was primarily due to a decrease of 112 basis points in the average rate paid on deposits to 3.92% in fiscal 2002 from 5.04% in fiscal 2001. The average balance of deposits decreased by 0.1% to $457.0 million for fiscal 2002 from $457.4 million for fiscal 2001. Interest paid on borrowings decreased by $4.2 million, or 45.6%, to $5.0 million for fiscal 2002 from $9.2 million for fiscal 2001. The average balance of borrowings decreased by $60.8 million, or 40.6%, to $89.0 million in fiscal 2002 from $149.8 million in fiscal 2001. The Company repaid short-term borrowings during the final quarter of fiscal 2001 with proceeds from the securitization and sale of residential mortgage loans and consequently the average balance of borrowings during fiscal 2002 was lower than that balance in fiscal 2001. The average cost of borrowings decreased by 51 basis points to 5.63% in fiscal 2002 from 6.14% in fiscal 2001 as higher-rate fixed-term borrowings matured and were replaced with lower-rate borrowings in the generally lower market interest rate environment during fiscal 2002. Net Interest Income. Net interest income before provision for loan losses decreased by $1.2 million, or 6.7%, to $17.1 million for fiscal 2002 from $18.3 million for fiscal 2001. The Company's interest rate spread increased by 27 basis points to 2.71% for fiscal 2002 from 2.44% for fiscal 2001 and the net yield on interest-earning assets increased by 14 basis points to 2.95% for fiscal 2002 from 2.81% for fiscal 2001. The increase in the interest rate spread and net yield on interest-earning assets was more than offset by the decrease in the volume of interest-earning assets during fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001. Provision for Loan Losses. Provision for loan loss expense decreased by $1.3 million, or 25.6%, to $3.8 million for fiscal 2002 from $5.2 million for fiscal 2001. Provision for loan loss expense in fiscal 2002 was largely due to a $2.2 million charge-off of loans to a local commercial and industrial borrower. Provision for loan loss expense in fiscal 2001 was largely due to a $3.5 million charge-off of loans to a local borrower in a high technology industry. In addition, provision for loan loss expense increased in fiscal 2002 and 2001 in comparison with prior fiscal years due to increased growth in commercial real estate and business loan balances and in consumer loan balances, which generally involve a greater degree of risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.94% and 0.79%, respectively, for fiscal years 2002 and 2001. The Company has established a systematic method of reviewing the credit quality of the loan portfolio in order to establish a sufficient allowance for losses on loans. The allowance for losses on loans is based on management's current judgments about the credit quality of individual loans and segments of the loan portfolio. In evaluating the portfolio, management takes into consideration numerous factors, including current economic conditions, prior loan loss experience, the composition of the loan portfolio, and known and inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable. Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased by 8 $619,000, or 7.4%, to $9.0 million for fiscal 2002 from $8.4 million for fiscal 2001. The increase in noninterest income was partly due to a pretax gain of $456,000 on the sale of a northwest Iowa branch office in July 2001 to a local financial institution. The purchaser assumed deposits of $8.9 million and acquired loans totaling $2.8 million in addition to the branch building and certain fixtures. The gain on the sale of the branch deposits, loans and building and fixtures totaled $165,000, $44,000 and $247,000, respectively. The increase in noninterest income was also due to an increase of $1.1 million, or 31.1%, in income from fees and service charges to $4.8 million for fiscal 2002 from $3.7 million for fiscal 2001. The increase in fees and service charges resulted from an increase in loan origination activity in the generally lower market interest rate environment and from increases in service fees on deposit accounts. The increase in loan origination activity in the favorable rate environment for borrowers during fiscal 2002 also contributed to increases in gain on sale of loans and other real estate-related activities. Gain on sale of loans held for sale, including the sale of the branch office loans mentioned earlier, increased by $201,000, or 57.4%, to $552,000 for fiscal 2002 from $351,000 for fiscal 2001 and income from other real estate-related activities increased by $247,000, or 20.5%, to $1.5 million for fiscal 2002 from $1.2 million for fiscal 2001. Income from other real estate-related activities consists primarily of real estate sales commissions and fees for abstracting services generated by subsidiaries of the Company. Increases in all categories of noninterest income, other than gain on sale of securities, more than offset a much lower gain on sale of securities in fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001. In fiscal 2002 the Company recorded a net gain on sale of securities that totaled $103,000 as compared to a net gain on sale of securities that totaled $1.6 million in fiscal 2001. The fiscal 2001 gain was primarily due to a $1.7 million gain realized on the sale of $112.7 million of the Company's residential fixed-rate mortgage loans securitized in March 2001. Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased by $269,000, or 1.6%, to $17.1 million in fiscal 2002 from $16.8 million in fiscal 2001. The principal component of the Company's noninterest expense is salaries and employee benefits. Compensation and benefit expense increased by $795,000, or 9.2%, to $9.4 million in fiscal 2002 from $8.6 million in fiscal 2001. The increase in compensation and benefits expense was largely due to the cost of discontinuing the Company's self-insured health insurance plan that totaled approximately $395,000 during fiscal 2002 and to annual salary increases. Office property and equipment expense and advertising expense increased by $125,000, or 5.2%, and by $33,000, or 9.3%, respectively, in fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001. Partly offsetting the increases in noninterest expense for fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001, were decreases in other noninterest expense categories. Due to the Company's early adoption of SFAS No.142, amortization of goodwill was discontinued in fiscal 2002. Amortization of goodwill expense totaled $844,000 in fiscal 2001. Data processing expense decreased by $150,000, or 30.6%, to $340,000 for fiscal 2002 from $490,000 for fiscal 2001 largely due to a decrease in software amortization expense. Other general and administrative expense increased by $317,000, or 8.0%, to $4.3 million for fiscal 2002 from $4.0 million for fiscal 2001. The increase in other expense during fiscal 2002 was partly due to the cost of handling the higher loan origination volume, to higher costs of recruiting new staff members and to increased costs related to an increase in the volume of transaction accounts. Transaction accounts generally involve a higher cost to the Company than certificates of deposit due to the ability of the account holder to withdraw funds by check, automated teller machine and debit card, over the counter transactions and other means. Losses due to fraud, forgery and overdrawn accounts add to the Company's cost of maintaining transaction accounts. Income tax expense. Net earnings before income taxes increased by $436,000, or 9.1%, to $5.2 million for fiscal 2002 from $4.8 million for fiscal 2001. Income tax expense decreased by $68,000, or 3.9%, to $1.7 million for fiscal 2002 from $1.8 million for fiscal 2001. The Company's effective tax rate decreased to 32.6% for fiscal 2002 from 37.0% for fiscal 2001. The lower effective tax rate for fiscal 2002 resulted from an increase in tax-exempt investments such as municipal bonds and BOLI. In addition, non-deductible goodwill amortization in fiscal 2001 resulted in a higher effective tax rate when compared to fiscal 2002 in which no goodwill expense was recorded. 9 Comparison of Operating Results for Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 General. Net earnings totaled $3.0 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for fiscal 2001 as compared to net earnings totaling $4.9 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, for fiscal 2000. Interest Income. Interest income increased by $2.6 million, or 5.4%, to $50.6 million in fiscal 2001 from $48.0 million in fiscal 2000. The increase in interest income was primarily due to an increase of 33 basis points in the average yield on interest-earning assets to 7.75% in fiscal 2001 from 7.42% in fiscal 2000. In addition, the average balance of interest-earning assets increased by $5.8 million, or 0.9%, to $652.6 million in fiscal 2001 from $646.8 million in fiscal 2000. The increase in interest income resulted primarily from an increase totaling $2.4 million, or 6.5%, in interest income earned on loans to $39.6 million in fiscal 2001 from $37.2 million in fiscal 2000. Interest income on MBS increased by $443,000, or 19.8%, to $2.7 million in fiscal 2001 from $2.2 million in fiscal 2000. During the same period, interest income on investment securities decreased by $517,000, or 6.1%, to $7.9 million from $8.4 million and interest income on other interest-earning assets increased by $252,000, or 166.9%, when compared to fiscal 2000. The increase in interest income on loans was largely due to an increase in the average yield on loans receivable. The average yield on loans receivable increased by 43 basis points to 8.16% for fiscal 2001 from 7.73% for fiscal 2000. The increase in the average yield on loans was largely due to the Company's strategy of increasing its portfolio of commercial real estate, commercial business and consumer loans that generally have higher interest rates than one-to-four family residential mortgages. Also contributing to the increase in yield on loans receivable was the securitization and sale of $112.7 million of single-family long-term fixed-rate loans in March 2001. Prepayments and refinancing activity generally increased as mortgage market rates stabilized in fiscal 2001 at historically attractive rates. The Company's one-to-four family residential loan balances decreased further as borrowers refinanced and a majority of the new fixed-rate originations were sold in the secondary market rather than held in the Company's loan portfolio. The increase in interest income on MBS was primarily due to an increase of $4.1 million, or 12.0%, in the average balance of MBS to $38.7 million at June 30, 2001 from $34.5 million at June 30, 2000. In addition, the average yield on MBS increased by 46 basis points to 6.93% in fiscal 2001 from 6.47% in fiscal 2000. The increase in the average balance and in the yield on MBS was primarily due to the fact that the $112.7 million in single-family loans securitized in March 2001 were carried as MBS until sales were completed in the final four months of fiscal 2001. The decrease in interest income on investment securities was primarily due to a decrease of $9.4 million, or 7.3%, in the average balance of investment securities to $119.7 million in fiscal 2001 from $129.1 million in fiscal 2000. The yield on investment securities increased slightly to 6.62% in fiscal 2001 from 6.54% in fiscal 2000. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $2.5 million, or 8.2%, to $32.3 million in fiscal 2001 from $29.8 million in fiscal 2000. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to an increase of 39 basis points in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 5.31% in fiscal 2001 from 4.92% in fiscal 2000. Interest expense on deposits increased by $2.5 million, or 12.4%, to $23.0 million in fiscal 2001 from $20.5 million in fiscal 2000. The increase in interest expense on deposits was primarily due to an increase of 48 basis points in the average rate paid on deposits to 5.04% in fiscal 2001 from 4.56% in fiscal 2000. The average balance of deposits increased by $7.2 million, or 1.6%, to $457.4 million for fiscal 2001 from $450.3 million for fiscal 2000. Interest paid on borrowings totaled $9.2 million and $9.3 million, respectively, for the twelve months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. The average balance of borrowings decreased by $6.5 million, or 4.2%, to $149.8 million in fiscal 2001 from $156.3 million in fiscal 2000. The decrease in interest expense on borrowings due to the decrease in the average balance of borrowings was largely offset by an increase of 19 basis points in the average rate paid on borrowings to 6.14% in fiscal 2001 from 5.95% in fiscal 2000. Net Interest Income. Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased by $148,000, or 0.8%, to $18.3 million for fiscal 2001 from $18.2 million for fiscal 2000. The Company's interest rate spread was 2.44% and 2.50%, respectively, and the 10 net yield on interest-earning assets was 2.81% for both fiscal 2001 and 2000. Provision for Loan Losses. Provision for loan loss expense totaled $5.2 million for fiscal 2001 as compared to $554,000 for fiscal 2000. Provision for loan losses was increased due to increased growth in commercial real estate and business loan balances and in consumer loan balances, which generally involve a greater degree of risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans; and, due to a $3.5 million charge-off related to a large commercial credit. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.79% and 0.06%, respectively, for fiscal years 2001 and 2000. Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased by $1.9 million, or 29.2%, to $8.4 million for fiscal 2001 from $6.5 million for fiscal 2000. The increase in noninterest income was primarily due to a net pre-tax gain on the sale of securities that totaled $1.6 million for fiscal 2001 as compared to a net pre-tax loss totaling $170,000 for fiscal 2000. The gain on sale of securities was primarily due to gains realized on the sale of the $112.7 million of mortgage loans securitized in March 2001, which totaled $1.7 million. Service charges and other fees increased by $780,000, or 26.9%, to $3.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2001 from $2.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2000. The increase in service charges and other fees resulted from increased service fees from the Company's growing business and personal deposit account relationships and to increases in loan-related fees due to stronger mortgage origination activity during fiscal 2001 as compared to fiscal 2000. Gain on sale of loans held for sale increased by $171,000, or 94.6%, to $351,000 for fiscal 2001 from $180,000 for fiscal 2000 due to increases in residential loan originations. Partially offsetting the increases in noninterest income for fiscal 2001 when compared to fiscal 2000 was a decrease in gain on the sale of real estate owned and held for development of $310,000, or 51.5%, to $292,000 for fiscal 2001 from $602,000 for fiscal 2000. In addition, income from other real estate-related activities decreased by $258,000, or 17.6%, to $1.2 million for fiscal 2001 from $1.5 million for fiscal 2000. The decrease in real estate-related income was primarily due to a decrease in real estate sales commissions from the Company's real estate brokerage subsidiary. Other income decreased by $127,000, or 8.9%, to $1.3 million for fiscal 2001 from $1.4 million for fiscal 2000, largely due to decreased revenues in the Company's non-bank subsidiaries. Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased by $193,000, or 1.2%, to $16.8 million in fiscal 2001 from $16.6 million in fiscal 2000. The principal component of the Company's noninterest expense is salaries and employee benefits. Compensation and benefit expense decreased by $387,000, or 4.3%, to $8.6 million in fiscal 2001 from $9.0 million in fiscal 2000 primarily due to a reduction of 11 full-time-equivalent employees for fiscal 2001 as compared to fiscal 2000. Deposit insurance premium expense decreased by $94,000, or 49.6%, to $95,000 in fiscal 2001 from $189,000 in fiscal 2000. The deposit insurance premium rate decreased to $0.01985 per hundred dollars of deposits for the twelve months ended June 30, 2001 from $0.0398 per hundred dollars of deposits for the twelve months ended June 30, 2000. Advertising expense decreased by $119,000, or 25.1%, in fiscal 2001 as compared to fiscal 2000. More than offsetting the decreases in noninterest expense for fiscal 2001 as compared to fiscal 2000, were increases in other noninterest expenses categories. Office property and equipment expense and data processing expense increased by $137,000, or 6.0%, and $46,000, or 10.3%, respectively, over the prior fiscal year period. Other general and administrative expense increased by $610,000, or 18.1%, to $4.0 million for fiscal 2001 from $3.4 million for fiscal 2000, largely due to increases in professional and consulting fees related to strategic planning and to increases in contributions and Delaware franchise tax expense. Income tax expense. Net earnings before income taxes decreased by $2.7 million, or 36.5%, to $4.8 million for fiscal 2001 from $7.5 million for fiscal 2000. Income tax expense decreased by $877,000, or 33.2%, to $1.8 million for fiscal 2001 from $2.6 million for fiscal 2000. The Company's effective tax rate increased to 37.0% for fiscal 2001 from 35.1% for fiscal 2000. 11 Asset and Liability Management - Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are "interest rate sensitive" and by monitoring an institution's interest rate sensitivity "gap." An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period. The interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. Interest rate sensitivity is based on numerous assumptions, such as prepayment estimates, which are revised annually to reflect the anticipated interest rate environment. During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income while a positive gap would tend to positively affect net interest income. During a period of falling interest rates a negative gap would tend to positively affect net interest income while a positive gap would tend to negatively affect net interest income. The Company has utilized the following strategies in recent years in an effort to reduce interest rate risk: (a) the Company seeks to originate and hold in portfolio adjustable rate loans which have annual interest rate adjustments; (b) the Company seeks to originate shorter-term commercial and consumer loans; (c) the Company seeks to lengthen the maturity of deposits, when cost effective, through the pricing and promotion of certificates of deposit; (d) the Company seeks to attract checking and other transaction accounts which generally have a lower interest cost and which tend to be less interest rate sensitive when interest rates rise; and (e) the Company has used long term Federal Home Loan Bank advances to fund the origination of fixed rate loans. The Company does not solicit negotiated high-rate jumbo certificates of deposit or brokered deposits, which are extremely rate sensitive. At June 30, 2002, total interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within one year exceeded total interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing in the same period by $42.8 million, representing a cumulative positive one-year gap ratio of 1.16, or 6.6% if expressed as a percentage of total assets. The Company has an asset/liability committee (the "ALCO"), which includes the Company's president and senior Company officers. The ALCO meets weekly to review loan and deposit pricing and production volumes, interest rate risk analysis, liquidity and borrowing needs, and other asset and liability management topics. The ALCO reports quarterly to the Board of Directors on interest rate risk and trends, as well as liquidity and capital ratios and requirements. Market Risk Management Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Company's market risk is comprised primarily of interest rate risk resulting from its core banking activities of lending and deposit taking. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates might adversely affect the Company's net interest income or the economic value of its portfolio of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet contracts. Management continually develops and applies strategies to mitigate this risk. Management does not believe that the Company's primary market risk exposures and how those exposures were managed in fiscal 2002 have changed significantly when compared to fiscal 2001. The net portfolio value of the Company, assuming no change in interest rates (the "Base Case Scenario"), was $64.4 million and $64.2 million, respectively, at June 30, 2002 and 2001. The net portfolio value ratio in the Base Case Scenario was 9.86% and 9.75%, respectively, at June 30, 2002 and 2001. The Board of Directors has established market risk limits based on the Company's tolerance for risk. At June 30, 2002, the net portfolio value ratio was inside the board limits in all measured rate-change scenarios. The Company primarily relies on the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS") Net Portfolio Value Model (the "Model") to measure its susceptibility to interest rate changes. Net portfolio value ("NPV") is defined 12 as the present value of expected net cash flows from existing assets minus the present value of expected net cash flows from existing liabilities plus or minus the present value of net expected cash flows from existing off-balance-sheet contracts. The Model estimates the current economic value of each type of asset, liability, and off-balance sheet contract after various assumed instantaneous, parallel shifts in the Treasury yield curve both upward and downward. The Model uses an option-based pricing approach to value one-to-four family mortgages, mortgages serviced by or for others, and firm commitments to buy, sell, or originate mortgages. This approach makes use of an interest rate simulation program to generate numerous random interest rate paths that, in conjunction with a prepayment model, are used to estimate mortgage cash flows. Prepayment options and interest rate caps and floors contained in mortgages and mortgage-related securities introduce significant uncertainty in estimating the timing of cash flows for these instruments that warrants the use of this sophisticated methodology. All other financial instruments are valued using a static discounted cash flow method. Under this approach, the present value is determined by discounting the cash flows the instrument is expected to generate by the yields currently available to investors from an instrument of comparable risk and duration. The following table sets forth the present value estimates for major categories of financial instruments of the Company at June 30, 2002, as calculated by the Model. The table shows the present value of the instruments under rate shock scenarios of -100 basis points to +300 basis points in increments of 100 basis points. The OTS suppressed NPV estimates for interest rate scenarios of -300 basis points and -200 basis points beginning with the September 2001 and December 2001 cycles, respectively, due to the abnormally low market interest rate environment. Therefore, no data is presented in the table for those rate shock scenarios. As illustrated in the table, the Company's NPV decreases in a rising rate scenario and increases in the falling rate scenario. As market rates increase, the market values of the Company's portfolio of loans and securities decrease and prepayments slow. As interest rates decrease, the market values of loans and securities increase, but less dramatically than in the rising rate scenarios, due to prepayment risk, periodic rate caps, and other embedded options.

The Company historically has maintained a level of liquid assets in excess of regulatory requirements. The Company's liquidity ratio averaged 31.6% during the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The Company adjusts its liquidity levels in order to meet funding needs for deposit outflows, payment of real estate taxes from escrowed funds, when applicable, and loan commitments. The Company also adjusts liquidity as appropriate to meet its asset/liability objectives. The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, FHLB advances, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, and funds provided from operations. While scheduled loan and mortgage-backed securities repayments are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Company manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a steady deposit balance. In addition, the Company invests excess funds in interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, investment securities and other short-term interest-earning assets that provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. Investments and other assets qualifying for liquidity, outstanding at June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, totaled $156.8 million, $172.4 million, and $142.7 million, respectively. Deposits are the Company's primary source of externally generated funds. The level of deposit inflows during any given period is heavily influenced by factors outside of management's control, such as the general level of short-term and long-term interest rates in the economy, as well as higher alternative yields that investors may obtain on competing investment instruments such as money market mutual funds. The Company's net deposits before interest credited decreased by $26.7 million in fiscal 2002 partly due to the sale of a northwest Iowa branch office in July 2001. Deposits transferred on the sale of that office totaled $8.9 million. The Company's net deposits before interest credited decreased by $7.1 million during fiscal 2001 and increased by $12.6 million in fiscal 2000. Similarly, the general level of market interest rates heavily influences the amount of principal repayments on loans and mortgage securities. Principal repayments on loans during fiscal 2002 totaled $219.7 million as compared to $177.9 million in fiscal 2001 and $156.9 million in fiscal 2000. Funds received from principal repayments on mortgage-backed securities for fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, totaled $9.9 million, $7.1 million and $8.4 million, respectively. Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. If the Company requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the FHLB, which provide an additional source of funds. At June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company had $99.1 million and $89.1 million, respectively, in outstanding advances from the FHLB. At June 30, 2002, the Company had outstanding loan commitments and consumer and commercial approved, but unused, lines of credit totaling $48.9 million. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature or reprice in one year or less at June 30, 2002 totaled $175.6 million. Management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the Company. Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices The consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time and due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Company's operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Company's performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. 14 Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price of goods and services. Effect of New Accounting Standards In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, as well as all purchase method business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 also specifies criteria intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill, noting that any purchase price allocable to an assembled workforce may not be accounted for separately. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead evaluated for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment. The Company was required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 141 immediately. The Company elected to early adopt SFAS No. 142 as of July 1, 2002. In connection with SFAS No. 142's transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, the Company performed an assessment of whether there was an indication that goodwill was impaired as of the date of adoption. There was no impairment indicated. As of the date of adoption, the Company had unamortized goodwill in the amount of $18.5 million and unamortized identifiable intangible assets in the amount of $419,000. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $844,000 for the year ended June 30, 2001. Amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets was $86,000 and $110,000, respectively, for the years ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS No. 143 requires the Company to record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of assets. The Company also records a corresponding asset which is depreciated over the life of the asset. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 143 for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company does not expect this statement to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. In August, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121 and the accounting and reporting provision of APB Opinion No. 30 for the disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. SFAS No. 144 requires companies to separately report discontinued operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, abandonment, or in a distribution to owners) or is classified as held for sale. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 144 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 145 Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections was issued April 2002. This Statement rescinds SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, 15 Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. This Statement also rescinds SFAS No. 44, Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers. This Statement amends SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. This Statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The provisions of this Statement related to the rescission of Statement 4 shall be applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The provisions in paragraphs 8 and 9(c) of this Statement related to Statement 13 shall be effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. The effects of implementation are not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities was issued June 2002. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring.) The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. Critical Accounting Policy The Company's critical accounting policy relates to the allowance for losses on loans. The Company has established a systematic method of periodically reviewing the credit quality of the loan portfolio in order to establish a sufficient allowance for losses on loans. The allowance for losses on loans is based on management's current judgments about the credit quality of individual loans and segments of the loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is established through a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio, and considers all known internal and external factors that affect loan collectibility as of the reporting date. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans on which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable value or the fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, management's knowledge of inherent risks in the portfolio that are probable and reasonably estimable and other factors that warrant recognition in providing an appropriate loan loss allowance. 16 Independent Auditors' Report The Board of Directors First Federal Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries Sioux City, Iowa: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Federal Bankshares, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 2002. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First Federal Bankshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/ KPMG -------- KPMG August 30, 2002 Des Moines, Iowa 17 Assets 2002 2001 ------------------ ------------------- Cash and due from banks $ 23,114,024 20,241,215 Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions 103,197 57,708,338 ------------- ------------- Cash and cash equivalents 23,217,221 77,949,553 ------------- ------------- Securities available-for-sale (note 2) 92,313,472 87,598,252 Securities held-to-maturity (fair value of $64,009,952 in 2002 and $22,882,470 in 2001) (note 2) 63,294,694 22,725,200 Loans receivable, net (notes 3 and 4) 418,381,872 417,897,877 Office property and equipment, net (note 5) 13,770,198 14,686,405 Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock, at cost 5,037,800 9,468,700 Accrued interest receivable (note 6) 2,803,663 3,793,058 Refundable income taxes (note 11) 146,741 112,365 Deferred tax asset (note 11) -- 500,000 Goodwill (note 7) 18,523,607 18,523,607 Other assets (note 8) 13,267,904 6,869,333 ------------- ------------- Total assets $ 650,757,172 660,124,350 ============= ============= Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity Deposits (note 9) $ 472,648,336 488,708,229 Advances from FHLB (note 10) 99,064,679 89,117,564 Advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance 1,482,743 1,910,376 Deferred tax liability (note 11) 103,000 -- Accrued interest payable (notes 9 and 10) 3,640,039 5,676,823 Accrued expenses and other liabilities 2,555,580 2,123,911 ------------- ------------- Total liabilities 579,494,377 587,536,903 ------------- ------------- Stockholders' equity: Preferred stock, $.01 par value; authorized 1,000,000 shares, none issued -- -- Common stock, $.01 par value; authorized 12,000,000 shares; 4,871,112 and 4,849,536 shares issued at June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively 48,711 48,495 Additional paid-in capital 36,247,480 36,053,892 Retained earnings, substantially restricted (note 13) 43,542,299 41,357,535 Treasury stock, at cost, 665,764 and 298,375 shares at June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively (7,577,646) (2,803,832) Accumulated other comprehensive income: Net unrealized gain (loss) on securities available-for-sale 490,458 (343,831) Unearned ESOP (note 12) (1,330,000) (1,473,470) Unearned RRP (note 12) (158,507) (251,342) ------------- ------------- Total stockholders' equity 71,262,795 72,587,447 Contingencies (note 16) ------------- ------------- Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $ 650,757,172 660,124,350 ============= ============= See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 18 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices Organization First Federal Bankshares, Inc. (the Company) is the holding company for First Federal Bank (the Bank). The Company owns 100% of the Bank's common stock. Currently, the Company engages in no other significant activities beyond its ownership of the Bank's common stock. Consequently, its net income is derived primarily from the Bank. The Bank is organized as a federally chartered stock savings bank engaging in retail and commercial banking and related financial services, primarily in the Sioux City metropolitan area; adjacent counties, including parts of Nebraska and South Dakota; and in central Iowa. The Bank provides traditional products and services of banking, such as deposits and mortgage, consumer, and commercial loans. Principles of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Federal Bankshares, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries, a real estate brokerage company, a real estate development company, and the Bank and the Bank's wholly owned subsidiaries. In consolidation, all significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company includes cash and due from other financial institutions and interest-bearing deposits with original maturities of three months or less in cash and cash equivalents. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share computations for the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000 were determined by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the years then ended. Diluted net earnings per common share amounts are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares and all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the year. (Continued) 23 The following information was used in the computation of net income per common share on both a basic and diluted basis for the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000: 2002 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- ---------- Basic EPS computation: Net earnings $3,510,098 3,005,893 4,875,651 Weighted-average common shares outstanding 4,115,350 4,407,780 4,552,159 ---------- ---------- ---------- Basic EPS $ 0.85 0.68 1.07 ========== ========== ========== Diluted EPS computation: Net earnings $3,510,098 3,005,893 4,875,651 ---------- ---------- ---------- Weighted-average common shares outstanding 4,115,350 4,407,780 4,552,159 Incremental option shares using treasury stock method 90,654 55,545 22,088 ---------- ---------- ---------- Diluted shares outstanding 4,206,004 4,463,325 4,574,247 ---------- ---------- ---------- Diluted EPS $ 0.83 0.67 1.07 ========== ========== ========== Securities Securities which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity. Such securities are carried at cost, adjusted for unamortized premiums and unearned discounts. Premiums are amortized and discounts are accreted using the interest method over the remaining period to contractual maturity, adjusted in the case of mortgage-backed securities for actual prepayments. Original issue discounts on short-term securities are accreted as accrued interest receivable over the lives of such securities. Securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at estimated fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on such securities are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of deferred taxes. Realized gains and losses from the sale of securities are recognized using the specific identification method. Unrealized losses on securities judged to be other than temporary are charged to operations. Loans Receivable Loans receivable are stated at unpaid principal balances less the allowances for loan losses and net of deferred loan origination fees and discounts. Discounts on first mortgage loans are amortized to income using the interest method over the remaining period to contractual maturity, adjusted for anticipated prepayments. Allowances for Losses on Loans and Real Estate The allowance for losses on loans is based on management's current judgments about the credit quality of individual loans and segments of the loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is established through a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio, and considers all known internal and external factors that affect loan collectibility as of the reporting date. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans on which full collectibility may not be 24 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable value or the fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, management's knowledge of inherent risks in the portfolio that are probable and reasonably estimable and other factors that warrant recognition in providing an appropriate loan loss allowance. Under the Company's credit policies, loans with interest more than 90 days in arrears and restructured loans are generally considered impaired loans. Loan impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, except where more practical, at the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Real estate acquired is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs of disposition. When a property is acquired through foreclosure or a loan is considered impaired, any excess of the loan balance over fair value of the property is charged to the allowance for losses on loans. When circumstances indicate additional loss on the property, a direct charge to the provision for losses on real estate is made, and the real estate is recorded net of such provision. Accrued interest receivable in arrears which management believes is doubtful of collection (generally when a loan becomes 90 days delinquent) is charged to income. Subsequent interest income is not recognized on such loans until collected or until determined by management to be collectible. Financial Instruments with Off-balance Sheet Risk In the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, which include commitments to extend credit. The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there are no violations of any conditions established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since certain of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company, upon extension of credit is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Unearned Loan Fees and Discounts Certain fees and direct expenses incurred in the loan origination process are deferred, with recognition thereof over the contractual life of the related loan as a yield adjustment using the interest method of amortization. Any unamortized fees on loans sold are credited to income in the year such loans are sold. Premiums and discounts in connection with mortgage loans purchased are amortized over the terms of the loans using the interest method. 25 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 Office Property and Equipment Office property and equipment are recorded at cost, and depreciation is provided primarily on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from 15 to 40 years for office buildings and from 3 to 10 years for furniture fixtures, automobiles, and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged against income. Betterments are capitalized and subsequently depreciated. The cost and accumulated depreciation of properties retired or otherwise disposed of are eliminated from the asset and accumulated depreciation accounts. Related gain or loss from such transactions is credited or charged to income. Excess of Cost Over Fair Value of Assets Acquired The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, on July 1, 2001. Prior to the adoption, the excess of cost over fair value of assets acquired was being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 25 years. The asset was evaluated by management for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicated that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable based on facts and circumstances related to the value of net assets acquired that gave rise to the asset. After the adoption date, Statement 142 requires that intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead evaluated for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142. Taxes on Income The Company files a consolidated Federal income tax return. Federal income taxes are allocated based on taxable income or loss included on the consolidated return. For state tax purposes, the Bank files a franchise tax return, while the Company, its other subsidiaries, and the Bank's subsidiaries file corporate income tax returns. The Company utilizes the asset and liability method for taxes on income, and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Stock Option Plan The Company provides pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for material employee stock option grants made as if the fair value-based method, which recognizes as expense over the vesting period the fair value of stock-based awards at the date of grant, had been applied. Reclassifications Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform with the presentation in these consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications did not affect previously reported net income or retained earnings. (continued) 26 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company's fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions for its financial instruments are set forth below: Cash and Cash Equivalents The recorded amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value. Securities The fair value of securities is estimated based on bid prices published in financial newspapers, bid quotations received from securities dealers, or quoted market prices of similar instruments, adjusted for differences between the quoted instruments and the instruments being valued. The fair value of mortgage-backed and related securities is estimated based on bid prices published in financial newspapers and bid quotations received from securities dealers. Loans Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as real estate, consumer, and commercial. The fair value of loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. The estimate of maturity is based on the Company's historical experience with repayments for each loan classification, modified, as required, by an estimate of the effect of current economic and lending conditions. The effect of nonperforming loans is considered in assessing the credit risk inherent in the fair value estimate. Federal Home Loan Bank Stock The value of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock is equivalent to its carrying value because it is redeemable at par value. Accrued Interest Receivable The recorded amount of accrued interest receivable approximates fair value. Deposits The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as passbook, money market, noninterest bearing checking, and checking accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value estimates do not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the market. Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank The fair value of advances from FHLB is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. (continued) 27 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 Advance Payments by Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance The recorded amount of advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance approximates fair value. Accrued Interest Payable The recorded amount of accrued interest payable approximates fair value. Limitations Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. Effect of New Accounting Standards In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, as well as all purchase method business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 also specifies criteria intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill, noting that any purchase price allocable to an assembled workforce may not be accounted for separately. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead evaluated for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values and reviewed for impairment. The Company was required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 141 immediately. The Company elected to early adopt SFAS No. 142 as of July 1, 2002. In connection with SFAS No. 142's transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, the Company performed an assessment of whether there was an indication that goodwill was impaired as of the date of adoption. There was no impairment indicated. As of the date of adoption, the Company had unamortized goodwill in the amount of $18,523,607 and unamortized identifiable intangible assets in the amount of $418,687. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $843,680 for the year ended June 30, 2001. Amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets was $85,698 and $109,999, respectively, for the years ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. SFAS No. 143 requires the Company to record the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of assets. The Company also (continued) 28 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 records a corresponding asset which is depreciated over the life of the asset. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 143 for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company does not expect this statement to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121 and the accounting and reporting provision of APB Opinion No. 30 for the disposal of a segment of a business. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. SFAS No. 144 requires companies to separately report discontinued operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, abandonment, or in a distribution to owners) or is classified as held-for-sale. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 144 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections was issued April 2002. This Statement rescinds SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. This Statement also rescinds SFAS No. 44, Accounting for Intangible Assets of Motor Carriers. This Statement amends SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. This Statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The provisions of this Statement related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 shall be applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The provisions in paragraphs 8 and 9(c) of this Statement related to SFAS No. 13 shall be effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. The effects of implementation are not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, was issued June 2002. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring.) The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. (continued) 29 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC.

Gross realized gains on these sales were $155,960, $1,731,569, and $3,784 and gross realized losses on these sales were $53,132, $148,150, and $173,640 in 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. Securities with an amortized cost of $8,007,389 and an estimated fair value of approximately $8,080,000 at June 30, 2002 were pledged to various entities. (3) Loans Receivable Loans receivable at June 30, 2002 and 2001 are summarized as follows: 2002 2001 ------------- ------------- First mortgage loans: Secured by one to four family residences $ 164,815,983 181,034,482 Secured by other properties 137,769,304 141,064,808 Home equity and second mortgage loans 40,347,072 38,223,700 Automobile loans 32,167,935 24,212,132 Commercial business loans 15,502,233 14,975,815 Other nonmortgage loans 33,241,139 23,339,750 ------------- ------------- 423,843,666 422,850,687 Less: Allowance for loan losses (note 4) 4,583,897 4,736,738 Undisbursed portion of loans in process 1,500,316 458,055 Net unearned premiums on loans (2,075,647) (1,537,496) Deferred loan fees 1,453,228 1,295,513 ------------- ------------- $ 418,381,872 417,897,877 ============= ============= Troubled Debt Restructurings At June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, the Company had nonaccrual loans of $5,106,000, $1,094,000, and $25,000, respectively, and restructured loans of $393,000, $130,000, and $65,000, respectively. Interest income recorded during 2002, 2001, and 2000 on restructured loans was not materially different than interest income which would have been recorded if these loans had been current in accordance with their original terms. Interest forgone on nonaccrual loans was $313,300 in 2002, $105,653 in 2001, and $1,250 in 2000. Loan Servicing The Company originates mortgage loans for portfolio investment or sale in the secondary market. During the period of origination, mortgage loans are designated as held either for sale or for investment purposes. Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value, determined on an aggregate basis. There were no mortgage loans held for sale at June 30, 2002. (Continued) 32 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 Mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition. The unpaid principal balance of these loans was $98,771,932, $142,730,413, and $42,865,542 at June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. Servicing loans for others generally consists of collecting mortgage payments, maintaining escrow accounts, disbursing payments to investors, and foreclosure processing. Loan servicing income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes servicing fees from investors and certain charges collected from borrowers, such as late payment fees. In connection with these loans serviced for others, the Company held borrowers' escrow balances of $648,486, $814,977, and $110,483 at June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company conducts the majority of its loan origination activities in its market area, which includes Northwest and Central Iowa and portions of Nebraska and South Dakota. In addition to loan origination, the Company has purchased loans outside of its primary lending area. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its borrowers' ability to repay their loans is dependent upon economic conditions in the Company's market area. Loans purchased outside the Company's primary lending area totaled approximately $93.5 million at June 30, 2002, and included approximately $78.7 million in loans that are geographically distributed in the Midwestern United States. The remaining loans are distributed throughout the United States, with the largest geographic concentrations including Colorado with $10.9 million and Connecticut with $1.4 million. Included in the totals of loans purchased outside the Company's primary lending area are loans purchased from a mortgage banking firm headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin. The Company has an exclusive agreement with this firm, which gives the Company first right of refusal on any real estate loans generated, including one-to-four family, multi-family, commercial real estate, and land development loans secured by properties located primarily in the Madison, Wisconsin metropolitan area. The Company has sold, and anticipates that it will continue to sell, participation interests in these loans to other financial institutions located in Iowa and contiguous states. At June 30, 2002, the outstanding principal balance of loans purchased under the above agreement was approximately $65.5 million and participation interests in these balances sold to other financial institutions totaled approximately $14.9 million. Securitized Mortgage Loans In March 2001, the Company sold approximately $112.7 million of fixed rate single family mortgage loans in securitized transactions. In those securitizations, the Company retained servicing responsibilities. The Company recognized pretax gains of approximately $1,714,000 on the sale of the securitized mortgage loans. There were no mortgage loans sold in securitized transactions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002. (Continued) 33 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC.

What the Company actually experiences may be significantly different depending upon changes in mortgage interest rates and market conditions. The following table shows the estimated future amortization expense for amortizing intangible assets for each of the years ended June 30: Core deposit Mortgage premium servicing rights Total ------------ ---------------- -------- 2003 $66,516 332,250 398,766 2004 52,374 -- 52,374 2005 45,396 -- 45,396 2006 44,604 -- 44,604 2007 44,604 -- 44,604 (8) Other Assets Included in other assets at June 30, 2002 and 2001 are mortgage servicing rights. The changes in capitalized mortgage servicing rights for the years ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were as follows: 2002 2001 --------- --------- Balance at beginning of year $ 674,750 -- Originated -- 700,250 Amortization (342,500) (25,500) --------- --------- Balance at end of year $ 332,250 674,750 ========= ========= The fair value of mortgage servicing rights was approximately $332,250 at June 30, 2002. The key economic assumptions used in determining the fair value of mortgage servicing rights at the date of securitizations resulting from securitizations completed in 2001 were as follows: Prepayment speed 15.54 % Weighted average life 3.52 years Residual cash flows discounted at 9.25 % (Continued) 36 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 At June 30, 2002, key economic assumptions and sensitivity of the current fair value of the mortgage servicing rights to immediate 50 and 100 basis point adverse changes in those assumptions were as follows: Fair value of mortgage servicing rights $332,250 Expected weighted average life 0.92 years Prepayment speed assumption 22.92% Decrease in fair value from a 50 basis point change $ 25,000 Decrease in fair value from a 100 basis point change 47,000 Discount rate assumption 7.38% Decrease in fair value from a 50 basis point change $ 25,000 Decrease in fair value from a 100 basis point change 47,000 These sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. As the figures indicate, changes in fair value based on a 50 basis point variation in assumption generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in the assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in the above table, the effect of a variation in particular assumption on the fair value of the servicing rights is calculated independently, without changing any other assumption. In reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another (for example, changes in prepayment speed estimates could result in changes in the residual cash flows discount rates), which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

The Fed Funds Advance rate on new borrowings is based on the Fed Funds Market rate at the time of borrowing. There are no minimum advance amounts, no commitment fees, and no prepayment penalties. Outstanding Fed Funds Advances automatically renew each day and are repriced based on the FHLB's return on overnight investments. Fed Funds Advances have no stated maturity and may be prepaid at will. During 2002, the interest rate at which these advances repriced ranged from 1.38% to 4.40%. Fed Funds Advances are collateralized as described in (A) above. At June 30, 2002 and 2001, accrued interest payable on advances from FHLB totaled $12,405 and $11,181, respectively.

(12) Employee Benefit Plans Pension The Bank is a participant in the Financial Institutions Retirement Fund (FIRF), and substantially all of its officers and employees are covered by the plan. FIRF does not segregate the assets, liabilities, or costs by participating employer. According to FIRF's administrators, as of June 30, 2001, the date of the latest actuarial valuation, the book and market values of the fund assets exceed the value of vested benefits in the aggregate. In accordance with FIRF's instructions, there was no pension contribution in 2002, 2001, and 2000 because the plan was fully funded. (Continued) 41 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 Profit Sharing Plan Bank employees participate in the First Federal Bank Employees' Savings & Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the Profit Sharing Plan). Employees who are at least 21 years of age become eligible for participation after 12 months of continuous employment (during which at least 1,000 hours of service are completed). The Bank matches an amount equal to 25% of the first 4% of the employee's compensation. The Profit Sharing Plan expense for the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000 was $48,265, $44,555, and $42,619, respectively. ESOP In July 1992, as part of the reorganization to the stock form of ownership, the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) purchased 143,809 shares of the Company's common stock at $3.066 per share, or $441,000, which was funded by a loan from an unaffiliated lender. This loan was repaid in December 1996, and the shares were fully allocated to participants at June 30, 1998. In April 1999, as part of the reorganization and conversion of First Federal Bankshares, M.H.C., the Bank's ESOP purchased 184,450 shares of the Company's common stock at $10 per share, which was funded by a 15-year, 7% loan from the Company. Quarterly principal payments of $30,742 commenced on June 30, 1999. All employees meeting the age and service requirements are eligible to participate in the ESOP. Contributions made by the Bank to the Plan are allocated to participants by using a formula based on compensation. Participant benefits become 100% vested after five years of service. The ESOP is accounted for under "Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans" (SOP 93-6). Dividends paid on unallocated shares reduce the Company's cash contributions to the ESOP. The ESOP's borrowing from the Company is eliminated in consolidation. At June 30, 2002 and 2001, allocated shares were 153,801 and 138,423, respectively. Shares committed to be released were 7,398 and 7,746, respectively. The fair value of the 133,000 and 147,347 unallocated shares was approximately $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Plan expense was $180,581, $156,821, and $173,367 for the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. Interest expense was $105,566, $114,174, and $123,359 on the Plan's borrowing for the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000. Stock Options The Company's 1992 stock option plan permitted the board of directors to grant options to purchase up to 124,510 shares of the Company's $0.01 par value common stock. The options may be granted to directors and officers of the Company. The price at which options may be exercised cannot be less than the fair value of the shares at the date the options are granted. The options are subject to certain vesting requirements and maximum exercise periods, as established by the board of directors. In October 1999, the Company established the 1999 stock option plan (1999 Plan). The Company's 1999 Plan permits the board of directors to grant options to purchase up to 263,500 shares of the Company's $0.01 par value common stock. The options may be granted to directors and officers of the Company. The price at which options may be exercised cannot be less than the fair value of the shares at the date the options are granted. The options are subject to certain vesting requirements and maximum exercise periods, as established by the board of directors. 42 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock options in the consolidated financial statements. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plans been determined consistent with SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share for options granted and vested would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below: 2002 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- ---------- Net income: As reported $3,510,098 3,005,893 4,875,651 Pro forma 3,446,038 2,942,362 4,828,003 Basic earnings per share: As reported 0.85 0.68 1.07 Pro forma 0.84 0.67 1.06 Diluted earnings per share: As reported 0.83 0.67 1.07 Pro forma 0.82 0.66 1.06 The fair value of each option grant has been estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in fiscal year 2002, 2001, and 2000: dividend yield of 3.41%; expected volatility of 22.76%; risk free interest rate of 6.29%; and expected life of 7.5 years.

AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 Recognition and Retention Plan In October 1999, the Company established the 1999 Recognition and Retention Plan (RRP) for certain executive officers. The Company contributed funds to the RRP to acquire 79,050 or 3% of the shares of common stock sold in April 1999. The shares of stock vest over a five year period. RRP expense for the years ended June 30, 2002, 2001, and 2000 was $106,735, $218,332, and $205,576, respectively. Changes in the number of recognition and retention plan shares awarded under the Plan and yet to vest were as follows: Granted October 21, 1999 $ 73,000 Vested (2,000) ----------- June 30, 2000 71,000 Vested (14,200) ----------- June 30, 2001 56,800 Granted 7,000 Forfeited (7,200) Vested (14,200) ----------- June 30, 2002 $ 42,400 =========== (13) Stockholders' Equity Regulatory Capital Requirements The Financial Institution Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) and the capital regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) promulgated thereunder require institutions to have minimum regulatory tangible capital equal to 1.5% of total assets, a minimum 3% leverage capital ratio, and a minimum 8% risk-based capital ratio. These capital standards set forth in the capital regulations must generally be no less stringent than the capital standards applicable to national banks. FIRREA also specifies the required ratio of housing-related assets in order to qualify as a savings institution. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) established additional capital requirements which require regulatory action against depository institutions in one of the undercapitalized categories defined in implementing regulations. Institutions such as the Bank, which are defined as well capitalized, must generally have a leverage capital (core) ratio of at least 5%, a tier risk-based capital ratio of at least 6%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%. FDICIA also provides for increased supervision by federal regulatory agencies, increased reporting requirements for insured depository institutions, and other changes in the legal and regulatory environment for such institutions. The Bank met all regulatory capital requirements at June 30, 2002 and 2001. (Continued) 44 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 The Bank's actual and required capital amounts and ratios as of June 30, 2002 are presented in the following table: To be well capitalized under For capital prompt corrective Actual adequacy purposes action provisions --------------------- --------------------- ---------------------- Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ----------- ------ ----------- ------ ----------- ------ Tangible capital $47,855,000 7.6% $ 9,418,000 1.5% $ -- --% Tier 1 leverage (core) capital 47,855,000 7.6 18,836,000 3.0 31,393,000 5.0 Tier 1 risk-based capital 47,855,000 11.6 16,386,000 4.0 24,578,000 6.0 Risk-based capital 52,434,000 12.7 33,138,000 8.0 41,423,000 10.0 Retained earnings at June 30, 2002 included approximately $9,165,000, which constitute allocations to bad debt reserves for Federal income tax purposes and for which no provision for taxes on income has been made. If such allocations are charged for other than bad debt losses, taxable income is created to the extent of the charges. Dividends and Restrictions Thereon In July 1992, the Bank converted from a mutual to a stock organization through the formation of a Mutual Holding Company. In April 1999, the Mutual Holding Company converted to a stock organization. The 1992 and 1999 Plans of Conversion provided for the establishment of a special "liquidation account" for the benefit of Eligible Account Holders and Supplemental Eligible Account Holders in an amount equal to the greater of: 1. the sum of the Mutual Holding Company's ownership interests in the surplus and reserves of the Bank as of the date of its latest balance sheet contained in the final offering circular, and the amount of any dividends waived by the Mutual Holding Company; or 2. the retained earnings of the Bank at the time that the Bank reorganized into the Mutual Holding Company in July 1992. Each eligible Account Holder and Supplemental Eligible Account Holder, if such person were to continue to maintain such person's deposit account at the Bank, would be entitled, upon a complete liquidation of the Bank after the conversion, to an interest in the liquidation account prior to any payment to the Company as the sole stockholder of the Bank. Federal regulations impose certain limitations on the payment of dividends and other capital distributions by the Bank. Under these regulations, a savings institution, such as the Bank, that will meet the fully phased-in capital requirements (as defined by OTS regulations) subsequent to a capital distribution is generally permitted to make such a capital distribution without OTS approval, subject to certain limitations and restrictions as described in the regulations. A savings institution with total capital in excess of current minimum capital requirements, but not in excess of the fully phased-in requirements, is permitted by the new regulations to make, without OTS approval, capital distributions of between 25% and 75% of its net earnings for the previous four quarters less dividends already paid for such period. A savings institution that fails to meet current minimum capital requirements is prohibited from making any capital distributions (Continued) 45 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements June 30, 2002 and 2001 without prior approval from the OTS. The Bank's current compliance with fully phased-in capital requirements would permit payment of dividends upon notice to the OTS. (14) Financial Instruments with Off-balance Sheet Risk The Company is a party to various transactions with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business. These transactions are primarily commitments to originate loans. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recorded in the consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company had commitments to originate and purchase loans approximating $31,530,000 and $48,276,000, respectively, excluding undisbursed portions of loans in process. Commitments, which are disbursed subject to certain limitations, extend over various periods of time. Generally, unused commitments are canceled upon expiration of the commitment term as outlined in each individual contract. Because the credit worthiness of each customer is reviewed prior to extension of the commitment, the Company adequately controls its credit risk on these commitments, as it does for loans recorded on the statement of financial condition. The Company had approved, but unused, consumer lines of credit of approximately $12,489,000 and $15,185,000 at June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. At June 30, 2002 and 2001, approximately 67% and 56%, respectively, of the consumer lines outstanding were for the Company's credit card program. The Company had approved, but unused, commercial lines of credit of approximately $4,907,000 and $10,502,000 at June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. At June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company had commitments to sell loans approximating $4,155,000 and $4,750,000, respectively. (Continued) 46 FIRST FEDERAL BANKSHARES, INC.
