Troyer, President FFD Financial Corporation 321 North Wooster Avenue Dover, Ohio 44622-0038 (330) 364-7777 FFD Financial Corporation Reports Net Earnings For The Three Months Ended September 30, 2003 DOVER, OHIO - FFD Financial Corporation, parent company of First Federal Community Bank of Dover, Ohio, reported net earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2003, of $176,000, or diluted earnings per share of $.15, compared to the $220,000, or $.19 per diluted share, of net earnings reported for the comparable three-month period in 2002. The $44,000, or 20.0%, decrease in net earnings resulted from a decrease of $55,000 in other income and a $52,000 increase in general, administrative and other expense, which were offset by a $41,000 increase in net interest income after provision for losses on loans and a $22,000 decrease in the provision for federal income taxes. Other income declined during the quarter due primarily to a decrease in gain on sale of loans in the secondary market. The increase in general, administrative and other expense related to pro-rata increases in expenses from year-to-year. FFD Financial Corporation reported total assets at September 30, 2003 of $136.2 million, total liabilities of $119.2 million, including deposits of $103.3 million and shareholders' equity of $17.0 million. FFD Financial Corporation is traded on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market under the symbol FFDF. First Federal Community Bank has offices in downtown Dover, downtown New Philadelphia, and on the Boulevard in Dover.
