AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO (UNAUDITED) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 1998 NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES NATURE OF OPERATIONS: MFB Corp. is an Indiana corporation organized in December, 1993, to become a unitary savings and loan holding company. MFB Corp. became a unitary savings and loan holding company upon the conversion of Mishawaka Federal Savings (the "Bank") from a federal mutual savings and loan association to a federal stock savings bank in March, 1994. On November 1, 1996, the Bank officially changed its name to MFB Financial. MFB Corp. is the sole shareholder of the Bank. MFB Corp. and the Bank (collectively referred to as the "Company") conduct business from their main office in Mishawaka, Indiana, and five branch locations in St. Joseph and Elkhart Counties of Indiana. The Bank offers a variety of lending, deposit and other financial services to its retail and commercial customers. The Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, Mishawaka Financial Services, Inc., is engaged in the sales of credit life, general fire and accident, car, home, and life insurance as agent for the Bank's customers and the general public. BASIS OF PRESENTATION: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete presentation of financial statements. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated balance sheets of MFB Corp. and its subsidiary MFB Financial as of June 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997, and the consolidated statements of income for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, and the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders' equity and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. The income reported for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE Earnings per common share is computed under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which was adopted retroactively by the Company at the beginning of the fourth quarter of 1997. Adoption of the Statement did not change the EPS amounts previously reported by the Company for prior annual or quarterly periods. At June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company had 61,032 and 84,308 average unallocated ESOP shares, respectively, and 7,700 and 15,400 average unearned recognition and retention plan shares, respectively, which are excluded from the weighted average number of shares outstanding used to calculate the earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is based on net income divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share shows the dilutive effect of additional common stock equivalents. A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the earnings per common share and earnings per common share assuming dilution computations for the periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 is presented below.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL The principal business of MFB Financial (the "Bank") has historically consisted of attracting deposits from the general public and making loans secured by residential and other real estate. The Bank is significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions, as well as government policies and regulations concerning, among other things, monetary and fiscal affairs, housing and financial institutions. Deposit flows are influenced by a number of factors, including interest rates paid on competing investments, account maturities, fee structures, and level of personal income and savings. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for and supply of housing lenders, the availability and cost of funds and various other items. Sources of funds for lending activities of the Bank include deposits, borrowings, payments on loans and income provided from operations. The Company's earnings are primarily dependent upon the Bank's net interest income, the difference between interest income and interest expense. Interest income is a function of the balances of loans and investments outstanding during a given period and the yield earned on such loans and investments. Interest expense is a function of the amount of deposits and borrowings outstanding during the same period and interest rates paid on such deposits and borrowings. The Company's earnings are also affected by the Bank's provisions for loan and real estate losses, service charges, income from subsidiary activities, operating expenses and income taxes. LIQUIDITY Liquidity relates to the Company's ability to fund loan demand, meet deposit customers' withdrawal requirements and provide for operating expenses. Assets used to satisfy these needs consist of cash, deposits with other financial institutions, overnight interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions and securities, excluding FHLB stock. These assets are commonly referred to as liquid assets. Liquid assets were $44.2 million as of June 30, 1998 compared to $49.1 million as of September 30, 1997. This $ 4.9 million decrease was primarily due to a $3.9 million decrease in securities available for sale and a $1.0 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents. This decrease in liquidity was used primarily to fund the $37.7 million increase in net loans from September 30, 1997 to June 30, 1998. Management believes the liquidity level of $44.2 million as of June 30, 1998 is sufficient to meet anticipated liquidity needs. A standard measure of liquidity for savings associations is the ratio of cash and eligible investments to a certain percentage of net withdrawable savings and borrowings due within one year. The minimum required ratio is currently set by Office of Thrift Supervision regulation at 4%, and, at June 30, 1998, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 8.93%. Therefore, the Bank's liquidity is well above the minimum regulatory requirements. The Company uses its liquidity mainly to fund existing and future loan commitments, to fund deposit withdrawals, to invest in securities, and to meet operating expenses. At June 30, 1998, the Company had commitments to fund loan originations with borrowers totaling $49.8 million (including $26.5 million in available consumer and commercial lines of credit) . Management believes that loan repayments and other sources of funds will be adequate to meet the Company's liquidity needs. The cash flow statements provide an indication of the Company's sources and uses of cash as well as an indication of the ability of the Company to maintain an adequate level of liquidity. A discussion of the changes in the cash flow statements for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 follows. During the nine months ended June 30, 1998, net cash decreased $ 1.0 million from $9.5 million at September 30, 1997 to $ 8.5 million at June 30, 1998. The Company experienced a $22.6 million net increase in cash from operating activities for the period ended June 30, 1998, compared to a $1.9 million net increase for the period ended June 30, 1997. The increase in the most recent period was primarily attributable to $20.1 million in proceeds from the sales of mortgage loans and $1.7 million in net income during the period. The $1.9 million increase for the period ended June 30, 1997 was primarily due to the $1.5 million net income generated and increases in other assets. Offsetting these increases was an $895,000 decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities resulting primarily from the payment during the first quarter of the one time Savings Association Insurance Fund assessment of $955,000. The $56.2 million net decrease in cash from investing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 1998 is primarily related to the $57.8 million increase in loan originations exceeding principal payments and the $35.3 million purchase of securities and FHLB stock, offset by sales and maturities of securities totaling $24.6 million and mortgage-backed securities principal payments of $12.7 million. During the nine months ended June 30, 1997, net cash used in investing activities was $22.1 million, resulting primarily from the $34.6 million increase in net loans and the $28.5 million of securities and $851,000 of FHLB stock purchased exceeding the $40.2 million generated from the normal maturities and sales of securities and the $1.9 in principal reductions of mortgage-backed securities. Financing activities generated net cash of $32.6 million for the nine month period ending June 30, 1998. The cash was provided primarily from $29.2 million in net new FHLB advances, net deposit increases of $3.7 million and net increases of securities sold under repurchase agreements of $3.1 million. Offsetting these increases was $3.1 million used to repurchase the Company's stock and cash dividend payments of $409,000 during the period. Net cash provided by financing activities was $21.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 as $19.2 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances and $8.6 million in net deposits were used to provide the funds for the purchase and retirement of 287,263 shares of MFB Corp. common stock totaling $5.4 million. CAPITAL RESOURCES Total shareholders' equity decreased from $33.6 million as of September 30, 1997 to $33.1 million as of June 30, 1998. The decreases to equity resulted mainly from the repurchase of 119,200 shares of outstanding common stock during the period at a cost of $3.1 million, along with the payment of cash dividends of $409,000. These decreases were offset by $1.7 million in net income and $1.0 million generated from the exercise of stock options. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory or discretionary actions by regulators that could have a direct material effect on the Bank's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific quantitative capital guidelines using the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's requirements are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth below) of tangible capital, leverage capital, and risk-based capital. The Bank's actual capital and required capital amounts and ratios at June 30, 1998 and 1997 are presented below: Requirement to be Well Capitalized Under Requirement for Capital Prompt Corrective Actual Adequacy Purposes Action Provisions Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio (Dollars in thousands) As of June 30,1998 Tier I Capital $ 30,473 10.49% $11,619 4.00% $14,523 5.00% Tier I Risk- Based Capital 30,473 18.40% $ 6,625 4.00 9.938 6.00 Total Risk- Based Capital 30,893 18.65% $13,250 8.00 16,563 10.00 As of June 30,1997 Tier I Capital $ 32,183 12.96% $ 9,937 4.00% $ 12,432 5.00% Tier I Risk- Based Capital 32,183 27.47 4,686 4.00 7,028 6.00 Total Risk- Based-Capital 32,545 27.78 9,371 8.00 11,714 10.00 AS OF JUNE 30, 1998, MANAGEMENT IS NOT AWARE OF ANY CURRENT RECOMMENDATIONS BY REGULATORY AUTHORITIES WHICH, IF THEY WERE TO BE IMPLEMENTED, WOULD HAVE, OR ARE REASONABLY LIKELY TO HAVE, A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE COMPANY'S LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES OR OPERATIONS. MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 Total assets increased $35.0 million from $255.9 million as of September 30, 1997 to $290.9 million as of June 30, 1998. Net loans increased by $37.8 million from $200.9 million at September 30, 1997 to $238.7 million at June 30, 1998 due to loan originations exceeding principal payments by approximately $57.8 million, offset by the proceeds received from first mortgage loan sales of $20.1 million. 237 mortgage loans were sold to private investors during this period at a weighted average rate of 7.69%. Servicing of these loans has been retained by the Bank with a .25% service fee. These loan sales were completed to lower the Bank's interest rate risk exposure, generate additional funds for new loan originations and create servicing fee income. The loans sold were fixed rate loans with a remaining maturity of greater than 15 years. Securities available for sale decreased during this same period from $39.6 million at September 30, 1997 to $35.7 million at June 30, 1998 due primarily to maturities, sales and principal payments exceeding purchases by $3.8 million during the period. In addition to the proceeds from the above mentioned loan sales, net loan growth was funded by additional borrowings through Federal Home Bank advances, savings deposit growth and the decreases in security investments. Total liabilities increased from $222.4 million at September 30 , 1997 to $257.8 million at June 30, 1998. Significant liability changes included the addition of $1.7 million in savings , NOW and MMDA deposits and $2.4 million in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, increased securities sold under agreements to repurchase of $3.1 million, and net new FHLB advances of $29.2 million. Enhancement of our deposit based product offerings and emphasis on core relationships and quality service has contributed to the deposit and repurchase increases. The $76.7 million of Federal Home Loan Bank advances have a weighted average interest rate of 5.51% and mature in eleven years or less. The one-day retail repurchase agreements totaled $3.5 million at June 30, 1998 and had a weighted average interest rate of 4.00%. MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 The Company's consolidated net income for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 was $1,656,000 compared with $1,506,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of 9.96%. Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the most recent three and nine month periods totaled $2.2 million and $6.4 million compared to $1.9 million and $5.5 million for the same periods one year ago. During the three months ended June 30, 1998 total interest income increased by $880,000 compared to the same period one year ago, primarily as a result of a $29.1 million increase in first mortgage loan receivables and a $23.0 million increase in commercial and consumer loan receivables. Total interest expense increased $549,000 reflecting the growth in both savings account deposits and borrowed funds. For the nine months ended June 30, 1998 total interest income increased $2.5 million while total interest expense increased $1.6 million. Noninterest income increased from $108,000 and $306,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 1997 to $182,000 and $509,000 for the most recent three and nine month periods. These increases are primarily due to fees generated from the growing number of core deposit account relationships and the additional services offered to bank's customers, along with servicing fees retained on sold loans. Noninterest expenses, primarily compensation and building expenses, increased from $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $1.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 1998, and from $3.3 million to $4.1 million for the comparable nine month periods. The additional compensation and building expenses are mainly attributable to staffing increases and renovated facilities to support lending operations. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION The Company continues to maintain asset quality that compares favorably to its industry peer group. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets as of June 30, 1998 was .06% compared to .08% as of June 30, 1997. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The OTS provides a Net Portfolio Value (*NPV*) approach to the quantification of interest rate risk for thrift institutions such as MFB Financial, (the "Bank"). This approach calculates the difference between the present value of expected cash flows from assets and the present value of expected cash flows from liabilities, as well as cash flows from off-balance sheet contracts. The OTS issued a regulation which uses a net market value methodology to measure the interest rate risk exposure of thrift institutions. Under OTS regulations, an institution's "normal" level of interest rate risk in the event of an assumed 200 basis point change in interest rates is a decrease in the institution's NPV in an amount not to exceed two percent of the present value of its assets. Thrift institutions with greater than "normal" interest rate risk exposure must take a deduction from their total capital available to meet their risk-based capital requirement. The amount of that deduction is one half of the difference between (a) the institution's actual calculated exposure to a 200 basis point interest rate increase or decrease (whichever results in the greater pro forma decrease in NPV) and (b) its "normal" level of exposure which is 2.00% of the present value of its assets. The regulation, however, will not become effective until the OTS evaluates the process by which thrift institutions may appeal an interest rate risk deduction determination. It is uncertain as to when this evaluation may be completed. Presented below, as of March 31, 1998, is an analysis of the Bank's interest rate risk as measured by changes in NPV for an instantaneous and sustained parallel shift in the yield curve, in 100 basis point increments, up and down 400 basis points, in accordance with OTS regulations. As illustrated in the table, the Bank's interest rate risk is more sensitive to rising rate changes than declining rates. This occurs primarily because, as rates rise, the market value of fixed-rate loans declines due to both the rate increases and slowing prepayments. When rates decline, the Bank does not experience a significant rise in market value for these loans because borrowers prepay at relatively higher rates. The value of the Bank's deposits and borrowings change in approximately the same proportion in rising and falling rate scenarios. Management reviews the OTS measurements and related peer reports on a quarterly basis. In addition to monitoring selected measures of NPV, management also monitors effects on net interest income resulting from increases or decreases in interest rates. This measure is used in conjuction with NPV measures to identify excessive interest rate risk. At March 31, 1998 (Dollars in thousands) Change in Interest Rates (Basis Points) $ Change % Change + 400 bp $ (14,588) (37)% + 300 bp $ (10,169) (26) + 200 bp $ ( 5,984) (15) + 100 bp $ ( 2,394) ( 6) 0 bp --- - 100 bp $ 288 1 - 200 bp $ (1,095) (3) - 300 bp $ (2,518) (6) - 400 bp $ (3,501) (9) ITEM 4.
