NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE (1) - BASIS OF PRESENTATION In the opinion of Downey Financial Corp. and subsidiaries ("Downey"), the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of Downey's financial condition as of September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996 and September 30, 1996, and the results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, and changes in cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial operations and are in compliance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The following information under the heading Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Operations is written with the presumption that the interim consolidated financial statements will be read in conjunction with Downey's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996, which contains among other things, a description of the business, the latest audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Position and Results of Operations as of December 31, 1996, and for the year then ended. Therefore, only material changes in financial condition and results of operations are discussed in the remainder of Part I. 4 NOTE (2) - TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND EXTINGUISHMENTS OF LIABILITIES Downey adopted, effective January 1, 1997, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" ("SFAS 125"). SFAS 125 provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. Those standards are based on consistent application of a financial-components approach that focuses on control. Under that approach, after a transfer of financial assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when extinguished. SFAS 125 provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. SFAS 125 requires that liabilities and derivatives incurred or obtained by transferors as part of a transfer of financial assets be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. It also requires that servicing assets and other retained interests in the transferred assets be measured by allocating the previous carrying amount between the assets sold, if any, and retained interests, if any, based on their relative fair values at the date of the transfer. SFAS 125 includes specific provisions to deal with servicing assets or liabilities. These provisions retain the impairment and amortization approaches that are contained in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights, an Amendment to FASB No. 65" but eliminates the distinction between normal and excess servicing. The adoption of SFAS 125 did not have a material financial impact on Downey. NOTE (3) - NET INCOME PER SHARE Net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of outstanding shares and stock options deemed to be common stock equivalents to the extent they are dilutive. Prior period outstanding shares and stock options have been adjusted for stock dividends and stock splits. NOTE (4) - DERIVATIVES As part of its secondary marketing activities, Downey utilizes forward sale contracts to hedge the value of loans originated for sale against adverse changes in interest rates. At September 30, 1997, such contracts amounted to approximately $24 million. These contracts have a high correlation to the price movement of the loans being hedged. There is no recognition of unrealized gains and losses on these contracts in the balance sheet or statement of income. When the related loans are sold, the deferred gains or losses from these contracts are recognized in the statement of income as a component of net gains or losses on sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities. 5 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Certain statements under this caption constitute "forward-looking statements" under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 which involve risks and uncertainties. Downey's actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, competition in the geographic and business areas in which Downey conducts its operations, fluctuations in interest rates, credit quality and government regulation. OVERVIEW Net income for the third quarter of 1997 totaled $10.6 million or $0.39 per share. This compares to a net loss in the year-ago third quarter of $6.5 million or $0.24 per share. The loss in the year-ago third quarter was due solely to a one-time assessment to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). Downey's share of that assessment was $14.0 million or $0.52 per share on an after-tax basis. Excluding the impact of that assessment from the year-ago quarter, net income for the current quarter would have been 39.5% higher. For the first nine months of 1997, net income totaled $31.2 million or $1.16 per share, up 20.0% from the adjusted year-ago results excluding the impact of the previously mentioned one-time SAIF assessment. Including that assessment, net income for the first nine months of 1996 was $12.0 million or $0.45 per share. The increase in net income between third quarters, excluding the one-time SAIF assessment, reflected an increase in net interest income, a decrease in provision for loan losses and an increase in other income. Net interest income increased $2.5 million or 7.2% due to a 25.4% increase in average earning assets as the effective interest spread declined between quarters. Provision for loan losses declined $2.5 million, while total other income increased $2.8 million reflecting increases in net gains on sales of loans, loan and deposit related fees and income from real estate held for investment. Those positive factors were partially offset, however, by a $2.6 million increase in general and administrative costs due, in part, to branch expansion, particularly into supermarket banking, higher advertising expenditures, and growth in auto lending. For the third quarter of 1997, the return on average assets was 0.71% and the return on average equity was 10.28%, bringing the returns for the first nine months of 1997 to 0.74% and 10.31%, respectively. At September 30, 1997, assets totaled $5.9 billion, up 18.2% from a year ago, but virtually unchanged from the end of the second quarter of 1997. The lack of asset growth during the current quarter was intentional and primarily reflected the sale of $290.5 million of single family adjustable rate mortgages from the loan portfolio. Single family loan originations were $464.0 million in the third quarter of 1997 compared to $392.5 million in the third quarter of 1996 and $714.9 million in the second quarter of 1997. Of the current quarter total, $79.5 million represented originations for portfolio of subprime credits ("A-," "B" and "C") as part of Downey's strategy to enhance the portfolio's net yield. In addition to single family loans, $120.2 million of other loans were originated in the quarter including $70.8 million of automobile loans. Non-performing assets declined $0.2 million during the quarter to $55.7 million or 0.95% of total assets. Based on regulatory rules in effect at September 30, 1997, Downey Savings and Loan Association, F.A. (the "Bank"), had core and tangible capital ratios of 6.40% and a risk-based capital ratio of 12.30%. These capital levels are well above the "well capitalized" standards of 5% and 10%, respectively, as defined by regulation. 6 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income totaled $37.6 million in the third quarter of 1997, up $2.5 million or 7.2% from the same period last year. The improvement between third quarters reflects an increase of 25.4% in average earning assets to $5.7 billion, as the effective interest spread declined from 3.06% in the year-ago third quarter to 2.62% in the current quarter. The decline in the effective interest spread primarily reflected an increase in funding costs as the growth in earning assets was primarily funded with higher cost certificates of deposit and borrowings. For the first nine months of 1997, net interest income totaled $113.0 million, up $13.9 million or 14.1% from the same period a year ago. The following table presents for the periods indicated the total dollar amount of interest income from average interest-earning assets and resultant yields, the interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant costs, expressed both in dollars and rates. The table also sets forth the net interest income, the interest rate spread and the effective interest rate spread. The effective interest rate spread, which reflects the relative level of interest-earning assets to interest-bearing liabilities, equals (i) the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, (ii) divided by average interest-earning assets for the period. The table also sets forth the net earning balance (the difference between the average balance of interest-earning assets and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities) for the periods indicated. Non-accrual loans are included in the average interest-earning assets balance. Interest from non-accrual loans is included in interest income only to the extent that payments are received and to the extent that Downey believes it will recover the remaining principal balance of the loan. Average balances for the quarter are computed using the average of each month's daily average balance during the period. 7 Three Months Ended -------------------------------------------------------------------------- September 30,1997 September 30,1996 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Average Average Average Yield/ Average Yield/ (Dollars In Thousands) Balance Interest Rate Balance Interest Rate -

The following table sets forth information regarding changes in interest income and expense for Downey for the periods indicated. For each category of interest-earning asset and interest- 8 bearing liability, information is provided on changes attributable to: (i) changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by comparative period rate); (ii) changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by comparative period volume); and (iii) change in rate-volume (change in rate multiplied by change in volume). Interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability balances used in the calculations represent quarterly average balances computed using the average of each month's daily average balance during the period.

For the first nine months of 1997, provision for loan losses totaled $5.6 million, compared to $7.5 million in the year-ago period. For information regarding the allowance for loan losses, see "Asset Quality - Valuation Allowances" on page 21. OTHER INCOME Total other income was $8.0 million in the third quarter of 1997, up $2.8 million from the year-ago quarter. The increase primarily occurred in net gains on sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities, up $1.3 million; loan and deposit related fees, up $1.0 million; and income from real estate held for investment, up $0.7 million. Included within the current quarter net gains on sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities was a gain of $1.1 million associated with the sale of $290.5 million of adjustable rate mortgage loans originally included within loans held for investment. For the first nine months of 1997, total other income was $24.4 million, up $5.4 million from a year ago. The following table presents a breakdown of the key components comprising income from real estate and joint venture operations.

Excluding that assessment, operating expenses would have increased $2.7 million or 11.6%. Higher general and administrative costs were primarily responsible for the increase. General and administrative expense increased $2.6 million or 11.9% and reflected branch expansion, particularly into supermarket banking, higher advertising expenditures and growth in auto lending. The $0.8 million increase in advertising expenditures reflects, in large part, the cost of a television advertising campaign to increase public awareness of the Bank, and specifically the Bank's subprime residential lending product, a key component to Downey's strategy of increasing the loan portfolio yield. For the first nine months of 1997, operating expenses totaled $76.9 million compared to $89.5 million in the same period of 1996. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES Income taxes for the third quarter totaled $8.0 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 43.0%, compared to an income tax benefit of $4.9 million for the like quarter of a year ago. The year-ago tax benefit was due to the pre-tax loss attributable to the one-time SAIF assessment. For the first nine months of 1997, the effective tax rate was 43.0% compared to 43.2% in the same period of 1996. 10 FINANCIAL CONDITION LOANS AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES Total loans and mortgage-backed securities, including those held for sale, decreased $104.2 million during the third quarter to a total of $5.3 billion, or 91.1% of assets, at September 30, 1997. This decrease primarily reflected a decline of $115.7 million in the residential one-to-four unit loan portfolio held for investment due to the sale of $290.5 million of adjustable rate mortgages tied to the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index ("COFI"). The sale was completed as part of a strategy to increase the loan portfolio yield by changing the loan mix and to manage the Bank's regulatory capital position. In addition to the decline in the residential one-to-four unit loan portfolio held for investment, the combined multi-family and commercial real estate portfolios declined $20.6 million. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $37.6 million in automobile loans and $11.7 million in the construction loan portfolio. The following table sets forth originations of loans held for investment and loans originated for sale.

(2) Primarily represents loans to facilitate the sale of real estate acquired in settlement of loans and loans that meet certain yield and other approved guidelines. (3) For the three months ended September 30, 1997, and June 30, 1997, $0.4 million, and $1.0 million, respectively, of loans purchased through correspondent lending relationships are included. Originations of one-to-four unit residential loans totaled $464.0 million in the third quarter of 1997, of which $389.3 million were for portfolio and $74.7 million were for sale. This was 35.1% below the $714.9 million originated in the second quarter of 1997, but 18.2% higher than the $392.5 million originated in the year-ago quarter. Of the current quarter total, $79.5 million represented originations of subprime credits ("A-," "B" and "C") as part of Downey's strategy to enhance the portfolio's net yield. During the current quarter, 49% of Downey's residential one-to-four unit originations represented refinancings of existing loans (existing Downey loans were 3%). This is up from 39% (existing Downey loans were 3%) during the previous quarter and from 36% (existing Downey loans were 5%) in the year-ago third quarter. In addition to single family loans, $120.2 million of other loans were originated in the quarter including $70.8 million of automobile loans, $26.2 million of construction loans and $13.3 million of land loans. During the current quarter, loan originations for investment consisted primarily of ARMs tied to COFI, an index which lags the movement in market interest rates. This experience is similar to that of recent quarters. Increasingly, the majority of ARM originations reprice monthly; however, Downey also originates ARM loans which reprice semi-annually and annually. With respect to ARMs that primarily adjust monthly, there is a lifetime interest rate cap, but no other specified limit on periodic interest rate adjustments. Instead, monthly adjustment ARMs have a periodic cap on changes in the required monthly payments, which adjust annually. Monthly adjustment ARMs allow for negative amortization (the addition to loan principal of accrued interest that exceeds the required loan payment). There is a limit on the amount of negative amortization, such that the principal plus the added amount cannot exceed 110% of the original loan amount. At September 30, 1997, $2.4 billion of the ARMs in Downey's loan portfolio were subject to negative amortization of which $23.8 million represented the amount of negative amortization included in the loan balance. 11 Downey also continues to originate residential fixed interest rate mortgage loans to meet consumer demand, but intends to sell the majority of all such loans. Sales of loans and mortgage-backed securities originated by Downey were $362.1 million for the third quarter of 1997 of which $290.5 million represented the previously mentioned sale of COFI ARMs from loans held for investment, compared to $87.2 million in the previous quarter and $25.1 million for the third quarter of 1996. All were secured by residential one-to-four unit property. At September 30, 1997, Downey had commitments to fund loans amounting to $206.6 million, undrawn lines of credit of $69.0 million, loans in process of $59.4 million and letters of credit of $0.1 million. Downey believes its current sources of funds will enable it to meet these obligations while exceeding all regulatory liquidity requirements. 12 The following table sets forth the origination, purchase and sale activity relating to loans and mortgage-backed securities.

Mortgage-backed securities available for sale are carried at fair value and, at September 30, 1997, reflect an unrealized gain of $0.4 million. The current quarter-end unrealized gain, less the associated tax effect of $0.2 million, is reflected within a separate component of stockholders' equity until realized. 14 INVESTMENTS IN REAL ESTATE AND JOINT VENTURES Downey's investment in real estate and joint ventures amounted to $40.9 million at September 30, 1997, compared to $46.5 million at December 31, 1996, and $44.6 million at September 30, 1996.

The repricing frequencies have been determined by reference to projected maturities, based upon contractual maturities as adjusted for scheduled repayments and "repricing mechanisms" (provisions for changes in the interest and dividend rates of assets and liabilities). Prepayment rates are assumed on substantially all of Downey's loan portfolio based upon its historical loan prepayment experience and anticipated future prepayments. Repricing mechanisms on certain of Downey's assets are subject to limitations, such as caps on the amount that interest rates and payments on Downey's loans may adjust, and accordingly, such assets do not normally respond as completely or rapidly as Downey's liabilities to changes in market interest rates. The interest rate sensitivity of Downey's assets and liabilities illustrated in the table would vary substantially if different assumptions were used or if actual experience differed from the assumptions set forth. 16 September,1997 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Within 7 - 12 1 - 5 5 - 10 Over Total (Dollars in Thousands) 6 Months Months Years Years 10 Years Balance - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest-earning assets: Investment securities and Federal Home Loan Bank stock ........................

(2) Based upon contractual maturity, repricing date and projected repayments and prepayments of principal. (3) Based upon contractual maturity or repricing date. The six-month gap at September 30, 1997, was a positive 19.85% (i.e., more interest-earning assets reprice within six months than interest-bearing liabilities). This compares to a positive six-month gap of 19.07% at June 30, 1997, 16.71% at December 31, 1996, and 17.06% at September 30, 1996. Downey's strategy of emphasizing the origination of adjustable rate mortgages continues to be pursued. For the twelve months ended September 30, 1997, Downey originated and purchased for investment $2.1 billion of adjustable rate loans and mortgage-backed securities which represented approximately 97% of all loans and mortgage-backed securities originated and purchased for investment during the period. At September 30, 1997, 98% of Downey's interest-earning assets mature, reprice or are estimated to prepay within five years, up slightly from 97% at December 31, 1996, and unchanged from September 30, 1996. At September 30, 1997, loans and mortgage-backed securities with adjustable interest rates represented 88% of Downey's loans and mortgage-backed securities portfolios. During the third quarter of 1997, Downey continued to offer residential fixed rate 17 loan products to its customers primarily for sale in the secondary market. Downey prices and originates such fixed rate mortgage loans for sale into the secondary market in order to increase opportunities for originating ARMs and generate fee and servicing income. Downey does originate fixed rate loans for portfolio to facilitate the sale of real estate acquired in settlement of loans and which meet certain yield and other approved guidelines. At September 30, 1997, $5.1 billion or 94% of the total loan portfolio (including mortgage-backed securities) consisted of adjustable rate loans, construction loans and loans with a due date of five years or less, compared to $5.2 billion or 94%, at June 30, 1997, $4.5 billion or 94% at December 31, 1996, and $4.3 billion or 94% at September 30, 1996. The following table sets forth on a consolidated basis the interest rate spread on Downey's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as of the dates indicated.

At September 30, 1997, the one-to-four unit residential ARM portfolio, including mortgage-backed securities, totaled $4.5 billion with a weighted average rate of 7.41%, compared to $3.9 billion with a weighted average rate of 7.38% at December 31, 1996, and $3.7 billion with a weighted average rate of 7.37% at September 30, 1996. ASSET QUALITY Non-Performing Assets Non-performing assets declined during the quarter by $0.2 million to $55.7 million at September 30, 1997, or 0.95% of total assets. All of Downey's non-performing assets at September 30, 1997, were located in California with the exception of one property acquired in settlement of a loan located in Arizona. Non-performing assets at quarter end include non-accrual loans aggregating $18.0 million which were not contractually past due, but were deemed non-accrual due to management's assessment of the borrower's ability to pay. 18 The following table summarizes the non-performing assets of Downey at the dates indicated.

The total allowance for possible losses related to such loans was $1.3 million. During the third quarter of 1997, total interest recognized on the impaired loan portfolio, on a cash basis, was $0.5 million. Delinquent Loans During the 1997 third quarter, total delinquencies increased $5.5 million or 13.7%. The increase primarily occurred in the residential one-to-four unit category which increased $3.8 million and in the automobile loan category which increased $1.1 million. As a percentage of loans outstanding, delinquencies at the end of the 1997 third quarter were 0.85%, below the year-end 1996 level of 0.90% and year-ago level of 1.07%. 19 The following table sets forth the amounts of Downey's past due loans at the dates indicated.

These funds were used primarily to originate loans held for investment of $488.8 million (net of Downey refinances of $8.7 million) and for repayment of various borrowings of $198.6 million. At September 30, 1997, the Bank's ratio of regulatory liquidity was 5.04%, compared to 5.26% at December 31, 1996, and 5.12% at September 30, 1996. The ratio remains above the regulatory minimum of 5%. Stockholders' equity totaled $417.7 million at September 30, 1997, compared to $391.6 million at December 31, 1996, and $383.6 million at September 30, 1996. 22 REGULATORY CAPITAL The following table is a reconciliation of the Bank's stockholder's equity to federal regulatory capital as of September 30, 1997. The core and tangible capital ratios were 6.40% and the risk-based capital ratio was 12.30%. The Bank's capital ratios exceed the "well capitalized" standards of 5% for core and tangible and 10% for risk-based, as defined by regulation.

(2) Represents the minimum requirement for tangible capital, as no "well capitalized" requirement has been established for this category. (3) A third requirement is Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6%, which the Bank meets and exceeds with a ratio of 11.36%. CURRENT ACCOUNTING ISSUES The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128") and "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure" ("SFAS 129") in February 1997, and issued "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130") and "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131") in September 1997. SFAS 128 - Earnings Per Share SFAS 128 simplifies the standards for computing and presenting earnings per share ("EPS") as previously prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15, "Earnings per Share." SFAS 128 replaces primary EPS with basic EPS and fully diluted EPS with diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted from issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings. SFAS 128 also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement and a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. SFAS 128 is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, and earlier application is not permitted. If Downey had adopted SFAS 128 as of January 1, 1997, proforma basic EPS and proforma diluted EPS would have been $1.17 and $1.16, respectively for the nine months ending September 30, 1997. SFAS 129 - Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure SFAS 129 consolidates existing reporting standards for disclosing information about an entity's capital structure. SFAS 129 also supersedes specific requirements found in previously issued accounting statements. SFAS 129 must be adopted for financial statements for periods ending after December 15, 1997. 23 SFAS 130 - Reporting Comprehensive Income SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. SFAS 130 does not require a specific format for that financial statement but requires that an enterprise display an amount representing total comprehensive income for the period in that financial statement. SFAS 130 requires that an enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. SFAS 130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes is required. SFAS 131 - Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information SFAS 131 establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. SFAS 131 supersedes FASB Statement No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise," but retains the requirement to report information about major customers. It amends FASB Statement No. 94, "Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries," to remove the special disclosure requirements for previously unconsolidated subsidiaries. SFAS 131 requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Generally, financial information is required to be reported on the basis that it is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. SFAS 131 requires that a public business enterprise report a measure of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items, and segment assets. It requires reconciliations of total segment revenues, total segment profit or loss, total segment assets, and other amounts disclosed for segments to corresponding amounts in the enterprise's general-purpose financial statements. It requires that all public business enterprises report information about the revenues derived from the enterprise's products or services (or groups of similar products and services), about the countries in which the enterprise earns revenues and holds assets, and about major customers regardless of whether that information is used in making operating decisions. However, SFAS 131 does not require an enterprise to report information that is not prepared for internal use if reporting it would be impracticable. SFAS 131 also requires that a public business enterprise report descriptive information about the way that the operating segments were determined, the products and services provided by the operating segments, differences between the measurements used in reporting segment information and those used in the enterprise's general-purpose financial statements, and changes in the measurement of segment amounts from period to period. SFAS 131 is effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 1997. In the initial year of application, comparative information for earlier years is to be restated. This Statement need not be applied to interim financial statements in the initial year of its application, but comparative information for interim periods in the initial year of application is to be reported in financial statements for interim periods in the second year of application. 24 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 6 - Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K (A) None.
