AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) September 30, 1998 and 1997 1) QCF Bancorp, Inc. The consolidated financial statements included herein are for QCF Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), Queen City Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank") and the Bank's wholly owned subsidiary, Queen City Service Corporation. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 1998 of the Company, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The June 30, 1998 balance sheet was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. (2) Basis of Preparation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of the consolidated statements of financial condition, consolidated statements of income, consolidated statement of stockholders' equity and consolidated statements of cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. The statement of income for the three month period ended September 30, 1998 is not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year. (3) Earnings Per Share Basic per-share amounts are computed by dividing net income (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator). Diluted per-share amounts assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments unless the effect is to reduce the loss or increase the income per common share from continuing operations. Following is information about the computation of the earnings per share data for the periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. 7 Quarter Ended September 30, 1998 Net Income Per Numerator Denominator Share Basic earnings per share, income available to common stockholders $578,989 896,064 $0.65 Effect of dilutive securities: Stock options - 79,652 Management recognition plan - 21,365 Diluted earnings per share, income available to common stockholders $578,989 997,081 $0.58 Quarter Ended September 30, 1997 Basic earnings per share, income available to common stockholders $639,809 1,097,807 $0.58 Effect of dilutive securities: Stock options - 68,881 Management recognition plan - 24,491 Diluted earnings per share, income available to common stockholders $639,809 1,191,179 $0.54 (4) Regulatory Capital Requirements The Bank as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System is required to hold a specified number of shares of capital stock, which is carried at cost, in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines. In addition, the Bank is required to maintain cash and liquid assets in an amount equal to 4% of its deposit accounts and other obligations due within one year. The Bank has met these requirements. Federal savings institutions are required to satisfy three capital requirements: (i) a requirement that "tangible capital" equal or exceed 1.5% of adjusted total assets, (ii) a requirement that "core-capital" equal or exceed 3% of adjusted total assets, and (iii) a risk-based capital standard of 8% of "risk-adjusted" assets. Failure to meet these requirements can initiate mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material affect on the Bank's financial statements. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgements by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. At September 30, 1998, and June 30, 1998, the bank met each of the three capital requirements. As of June 30, 1998, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category. 8 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarter Ended September 30, 1998 and September 30, 1997. Net Income. Net income decreased by $61,000 from $640,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 to $579,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The decrease in net income was primarily attributable to a reduction in average interest-earning assets as a result of the Bank's stock buyback program. Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased by $64,000 or 4.0%, from $1.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 to $1.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The decrease in the Bank's net interest income resulted from a decrease in the Bank's average interest-earning assets as a result of the Bank's stock buyback program. Interest Income. Interest income was $2.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998. This represents a decrease of $134,000 or 4.7%, from the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The decrease was due to a decrease in average interest-earning assets as a result of the Bank's stock buyback program. Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $70,000 or 5.7%, from $1.23 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 to $1.16 million for the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The decrease resulted primarily from lower average interest-bearing liabilities for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 versus September 30, 1997. Provision for Loan Losses. The Bank has not provided for loan losses during either of the two periods due to low levels of nonperforming loans and to the high level of the allowance for loan losses in relation to nonperforming loans during these periods. Noninterest Income. The Bank's non-interest income increased $19,000 or 13.6% from $141,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 to $160,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 due primarily to increased loan fees and ATM fees. Noninterest Expense. Total noninterest expense increased by $84,000 or 12.3% during the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The increase was primarily due to expenses related to the Bank's forthcoming data processing conversion. Income Taxes. The Bank's income tax expense decreased by $68,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The decrease reflects decreased income before income taxes during this period. Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 1998 and June 30, 1998. Total assets decreased by $1.6 million, or 1.1% from $150.5 million at June 30, 1998 to $148.9 million at September 30, 1998. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.5 million decrease in investment securities offset by a $1.5 million increase in net loans receivable. Deposits increased by $303,000 or 0.3% and short-term borrowings increased by $3.0 million,or 21.3%. The Bank's investment securities decreased by $3.5 million or 4.5%, from $78.1 million at June 30, 1998 to $74.6 million at September 30, 1998. The decrease in investment securities was primarily due to the company's stock buyback program and increased funding for loans. The Bank's net loans receivable increased by $1.5 million, or 2.3%, from $65.2 million at June 30, 1998 to $66.7 million at September 30, 1998. The increase in interest loans receivable reflects increased loan demand during this period. 9 Year 2000 Compliance The year 2000 ("Y2K") issue is the result of computer programs using a two-digit format, as opposed to four digits, to indicate the year. Such computer systems will be unable to interpret dates beyond the year 1999, which could cause a system failure or other computer errors, leading to disruptions in operations. The Bank has been identifying potential problems associated with the Y2K issue and has implemented a plan designed to ensure that all software used in connection with the Bank's business will manage and manipulate data involving the transition with data from 1999 to 2000 without functional or data abnormality and without inaccurate results related to such data. In addition, the Bank recognizes that its ability to be Y2K compliant is dependent upon the cooperation of its vendors. The Bank is requiring its vendors to represent that their products are or will be Y2K compliant and has planned a program for testing compliance. All Y2K issues for the Bank, including testing, are expected to be addressed by December 31, 1998 and any problems would be remedied by March 31, 1999. The bank will also prepare contingency plans in the event there are system interruptions. The Bank believes that its costs related to Y2K will be approximately $700,000, primarily related to replacing the bank's core inhouse computer software and hardware systems.
