("Company") were prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. (b) Principles of Consolidation: The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Savings Bank, S.S.B. ("Bank"), and the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Service Corp. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation. (2) CONVERSION AND REORGANIZATION On January 12, 1998, the Bank converted from a Washington-chartered mutual savings bank to a Washington-chartered capital stock savings bank and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The stock conversion resulted in the sale and issuance by the Company of 6,612,500 shares of $.01 par value common stock at a price of $10.00 per share which resulted in gross proceeds of $66,125,000. After reducing gross proceeds for conversion costs of $1,175,000, net proceeds totaled $64,950,000. In conjunction with the conversion, the Company loaned $7,930,307 to the Bank's employee stock ownership plan for the purchase of 529,000 shares of common stock in the open market immediately following the completion of the stock conversion. On January 13, 1998, the Company's common stock began trading on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "TSBK". 9 (3) EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without considering any dilutive items. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents for items that are dilutive, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the treasury stock method at the average share price for the Company's common stock during the period. Common stock equivalents arise from assumed conversion of outstanding stock options. In accordance with Statement of Position ("SOP") 93-6, Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOP), issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, shares owned by the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan that have not been allocated are not considered to be outstanding for the purpose of computing earnings per share. At December 31, 1999, there were 467,283 ESOP shares that had not been allocated.

The dividend is to be paid February 18, 2000, to shareholders of record as of the close of business February 4, 2000. (5) ACCOUNTING CHANGES Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans. In November 1993 the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued SOP 93-6, which requires an employer to record compensation expense in an amount equal to the fair value of shares committed to be released to employees from an employee stock ownership plan and to exclude unallocated shares from earnings per share computations. The effect of SOP 93-6 on net income and book value per share in future periods cannot be predicted due to the uncertainty of the fair value of the shares at the time they will be committed to be released. Subsequent to the Bank's conversion to stock ownership on January 12, 1998, the Company acquired 529,000 shares for the Bank's employee stock ownership plan. Earnings Per Share. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," issued in February 1997, establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share ("EPS") and applies to entities with publicly-held common stock or potential common stock. It replaces the presentation of 10 primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS and requires the dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement. Subsequent to the Bank's conversion to stock ownership on January 12, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128 for all future periods. Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS No. 130, " Reporting Comprehensive Income," was issued in June 1997 and requires businesses to disclose comprehensive income and its components in their financial statements. This statement does not affect the results of operations or financial condition of the Company. The Company adopted SFAS No. 130 on October 1, 1998. SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," was issued in June 1998 and establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. The Company adopted SFAS No. 133 as of September 30, 1998. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Results of Operation -------------------- The following analysis discusses the material changes in the financial condition and results of operations of the Company at and for the three months ended December 31, 1999. This report contains certain "forward-looking statements." The Company desires to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this statement for the express purpose of availing itself of the protection of such safe harbor with forward looking statements. These forward looking statements may describe future plans or strategies and include the Company's expectations of future financial results. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The Company's ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could affect actual results include interest rate trends, the economic climate in the Company's market areas and the country as a whole, loan delinquency rates, and changes in federal and state regulation. These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 1999 and September 30, 1999 Total Assets: Total assets increased 6.9% from $ 307.1 million at September 30, 1999 to $328.3 million at December 31, 1999, primarily as a result of a $16.5 million increase in loans receivable and loans held for sale, net, which was primarily funded by increased Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings and increased deposits. Asset growth was partially offset by the use of $1.2 million to repurchase shares of the Company's stock. Cash and Due from Financial Institutions: Cash and due from financial institutions increased by 18.8% from $6.8 million at September 30, 1999 to $8.1 million at December 31, 1999, primarily as a result of the Bank's year end liquidity planning for year 2000 (Y2K) contingencies. Interest Bearing Deposits in Banks: Interest bearing deposits in banks increased from $1.3 million at September 30, 1999 to $3.8 million at December 31, 1999, primarily as a result of the Bank's year end liquidity planning for year 2000 (Y2K) contingencies. Investments and Mortgage-backed Securities: Investments and mortgage-backed securities increased by 1.6% from $31.7 million at September 30, 1999 to $32.1 million at December 31, 1999, primarily as a result of the Bank's increased investment in FHLB stock. 11 Loans Receivable, and Loans Held-for-sale, net of allowance for loan losses: Loans receivable, including loans held-for-sale, net, increased by 6.5% from $256.1 million at September 30, 1999 to $272.6 million at December 31, 1999. This increase is primarily a result of an increase in one-to-four family mortgage loans, multi-family mortgage loans, construction loans (net of LIP balance), and commercial mortgage loans. Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment increased by 6.6% from $7.6 million at September 30, 1999 to $8.1 million at December 31, 1999, primarily due to the addition of two new branches (Poulsbo and Spanaway). Real Estate Owned, net: Real estate owned, net, decreased from $867,000 at September 30, 1999 to $814,000 at December 31, 1999. Deposits: Deposits increased by 1.0% from $188.1 million at September 30, 1999 to $190.0 million at December 31, 1999, primarily due to growth in the Bank's certificate of deposit accounts. Federal Home Loan Bank Advances: Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances increased 43.6% from $45.1 million at September 30, 1999 to $64.7 million at December 31, 1999, primarily to fund loan portfolio growth. Shareholders' Equity: Total shareholders' equity decreased 0.6 % from $72.2 million at September 30, 1999 to $71.8 million at December 31, 1999, primarily as a result of the repurchase of 100,796 shares of the Company's stock for $1.2 million and the payment of $418,000 in dividends to shareholders. This decrease in shareholders' equity was partially offset by net income of $1.2 million. 12 Non Performing Assets - --------------------- The following table sets forth information with respect to the Company's nonperforming assets at December 31, 1999 and September 30, 1999. At December 31, At September 30, 1999 1999 ----------------------------------- (Dollars in thousands) Loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis: Mortgage loans: One-to-four family $ 1,142 $ 941 Commercial 1,869 1,675 Construction and land development 210 390 Land 191 253 Consumer loans 260 330 Commercial Business Loans - - - - --------- --------- Total 3,672 3,589 Accruing loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more: Mortgage loans: Construction and land development 411 449 --------- --------- Total 411 449 --------- --------- Total of nonaccrual and 90 days past due loans 4,083 4,038 Real estate owned and other repossessed assets 814 867 --------- --------- Total nonperforming assets 4,897 4,905 Restructured loans - - 509 Nonaccrual and 90 days or more past due loans as a percentage of loans receivable, (including loans held for sale)(1) 1.49% 1.56% Nonaccrual and 90 days or more past due loans as a percentage of total assets 1.24% 1.31% Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets 1.49% 1.60% Loans receivable, (including loans held for sale) (1) $ 274,734 $ 258,141 ========= ========= Total assets $ 328,312 $ 307,116 ========= ========= - -------------- (1) Loans receivable is before the allowance for loan losses 13 The following is a discussion of the Company's major problem assets at December 31, 1999: Convenience store/retail space and mini-storage, Kitsap County, Washington. The Bank had two loans that were originated in 1996 on two separate properties: a convenience store combined with retail space and a 436 unit mini storage facility. These two loans had a combined balance of $2.9 million at September 30, 1998. These loans became delinquent primarily because of a dispute between the two borrowers. The Bank initiated foreclosure proceedings which were stayed due to a bankruptcy filing by the borrowers in January of 1998. The bankruptcy was subsequently dismissed and the mini storage facility was sold at a trustees sale on March 12, 1999 for the full balance, accrued interest, late charges and fees owed. The foreclosure of the convenience store progressed to a sheriffs sale on December 10, 1999. The Bank was the successful bidder and the sale was confirmed on January 28, 2000. The Bank can now market the property. As of December 31, 1999, the remaining loan was classified as "substandard" and had a principal balance of $1.4 million. Although no assurances can be given, the Bank does not expect to incur any material loss on this loan. 14 Loans Receivable - ---------------- The following table sets forth the composition of the Company's loan portfolio by type of loan. At December 31, At September 30, 1999 1999 Amount Percent Amount Percent ------------------- -------------------- (Dollars In thousands) Mortgage Loans: One-to-four family (1)(2) $ 119,659 38.90% $ 115,133 38.42% Multi family 18,232 5.93 15,945 5.32 Commercial 54,442 17.70 52,049 17.37 Construction and land development 87,311 28.38 90,621 30.24 Land 10,373 3.37 9,059 3.02 --------- ------ --------- ------ Total mortgage loans 290,017 94.28 282,807 94.37 Consumer Loans: Home equity and second mortgage 8,513 2.77 7,978 2.66 Other 4,472 1.45 4,279 1.43 --------- ------ --------- ------ 12,985 4.22 12,257 4.09 Commercial business loans 4,604 1.50 4,611 1.54 --------- ------ --------- ------ Total loans 307,606 100.00% 299,675 100.00% Less: Undisbursed portion of loans in process (28,831) (37,781) Unearned income (3,178) (3,170) Allowance for loan losses (2,122) (2,056) Market value adjustment of loans held-for-sale (863) (583) --------- --------- Total loans receivable, net $ 272,612 $ 256,085 ========= ========= - ---------------- (1) Includes loans held-for-sale. (2) Includes real estate contracts totaling $1.5 million at December 31, 1999 15 Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 Net Income: Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $1.2 million or $0.26 per basic share ($0.26 per diluted share) compared to net income of $1.3 million or $0.24 per basic share ($0.24 per diluted share) for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. Net income for the current quarter was reduced by a $280,000 ($185,000 after income tax) market value adjustment on loans held for sale. Earnings per basic share and earnings per diluted share would have been $0.29 without this market value adjustment. Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased 10.5% from $3.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $3.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999. Total interest and dividend income increased 18.9% from $5.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $6.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999. The increase is primarily a result of a $1.2 million increase in interest from loans receivable and is partially offset by a $199,000 net decrease in interest and dividends from investment securities and financial institutions. The increase in interest income from loans receivable is primarily a result of higher average balances for the quarter in loans receivable due to loan growth. The net decrease in interest and dividends from investments securities and financial institutions is primarily a result of lower average balances for the quarter in funds held with financial institutions due to a portion of these funds being used to repurchase shares of the Company's stock and to fund loan growth. Total interest expense increased 33.5% from $2.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $2.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999. This increase is primarily a result of a $624,000 increase in interest paid on FHLB advances as average FHLB advances increased from $11.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1998 to $54.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999. Provision for Loan Losses: The provision for loan losses increased from $43,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $75,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999. Management increased the provision for loan losses due to growth in the Bank's loan portfolio. Management deemed the general loan loss reserves of $2.1 million at December 31, 1999 (.77% of loans receivable and loans held for sale, and 52.0% of non-performing loans) adequate to provide for estimated losses based on an evaluation of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio at that date. Non-performing loans decreased from $4.7 million at December 31, 1998 to $4.1 million at December 31, 1999. Noninterest Income: Total noninterest income decreased 78.3% from $254,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1998 to $55,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, primarily due to a $280,000 market value writedown on loans held for sale. This decrease is partially offset by a $42,000 increase in service charges on deposits, a $23,000 increase in other fees, and a $15,000 increase in gain on sale of loans. Noninterest Expense: Total noninterest expense increased 18.7% from $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $2.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999, primarily due to a $137,000 increase in salary and benefit expense, a $55,000 increase in advertising expense, and smaller increases in ATM expenses and premises and equipment expenses. The increase in salary and benefit expense was primarily due to adding personnel to staff three new branches (Yelm, Poulsbo, and Spanaway) that were opened in 1999 and salary increases for current employees. Provision for Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes decreased from $660,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998 to $592,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999 primarily as a result of lower income before income taxes. 16 Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, proceeds from principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage backed securities, and proceeds from the sale of loans, maturing securities and FHLB advances. The Company also raised $65.0 million in net proceeds from the January 1998 stock offering. While maturities and the scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank must maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the availability of sufficient funds to fund loan originations and deposit withdrawals, to satisfy other financial commitments and to take advantage of investment opportunities. The Bank generally maintains sufficient cash and short-term investments to meet short-term liquidity needs. At December 31, 1999, the Bank's regulatory liquidity ratio (net cash, and short- term and marketable assets, as a percentage of net deposits and short-term liabilities) was 23.0%. The Bank also maintained an uncommitted credit facility with the FHLB-Seattle that provided for immediately available advances up to an aggregate amount of $90 million, under which $65 million was outstanding at December 31, 1999. Liquidity management is both a short and long-term responsibility of the Bank's management. The Bank adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon management's assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) projected loan sales, (iii) expected deposit flows, and (iv) yields available on interest- bearing deposits. Excess liquidity is invested generally in interest-bearing overnight deposits and other short-term government and agency obligations. If the Bank requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, it has additional borrowing capacity with the FHLB and collateral for repurchase agreements. The Bank's primary investing activity is the origination of one-to-four family mortgage loans and construction and land development loans. At December 31, 1999, the Bank had loan commitments totaling $13.1 million and undisbursed loans in process totaling $28.8 million. The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments. Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature in less than one year from December 31, 1999 totaled $83.9 million. Historically, the Bank has been able to retain a significant amount of its deposits as they mature. Federally-insured state-chartered banks are required to maintained minimum levels of regulatory capital. Under current FDIC regulations, insured state-chartered banks generally must maintain (i) a ratio of Tier 1 leverage capital to total assets of at least 3.0% (4.0% to 5.0% for all but the most highly rated banks), (ii) a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets of at least 4.0% and (iii) a ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets of at least 8.0%. At December 31, 1999, the Bank was in compliance with all applicable capital requirements.
