SELECTED NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2002 Note 1: Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The balance sheet data at June 30, 2001 is from the audited consolidated financial statements of Provident Financial Holdings, Inc. (the "Corporation"). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is suggested that these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2001 (SEC File No. 000-28304) of the Corporation. Certain amounts in the prior periods' financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to the current periods' presentations. The results of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of results for the full year. Note 2: Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share ("EPS") excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of 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 in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the earnings of the entity. The following tables provide the basic and diluted EPS computations for the quarter and the nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

SFAS No. 133, as amended and interpreted, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in 8 other contracts, and for hedging activities. All derivatives, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair-value hedge, the changes in fair value of the derivative and the hedged item will be recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be recognized in the income statement when the hedged item affects earnings. SFAS No. 133 defines new requirements for designation and documentation of hedging relationships, as well as ongoing effectiveness assessments, in order to use hedge accounting. For a derivative that does not qualify as a hedge, changes in fair value will be recognized in earnings. The Corporation adopted SFAS No. 133 on July 1, 2000. There was no material impact upon adoption (refer to the Derivatives section for details on the SFAS No. 133 implementation). SFAS No. 140: - ------------ SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinquishments of Liabilities," was issued in September 2000 and revises the standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and requires certain disclosures, but it carries over most of the provisions of SFAS No. 125 without reconsideration. SFAS No. 140 is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinquishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. The statement is effective for recognition and reclassifications of collateral and for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 140 did not have a material impact on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Corporation. SFAS No. 141: - ------------ SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001; the use of the pooling-of-interest method is no longer allowed. The adoption of this statement had no material impact on the Corporation's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. SFAS No. 142: - ------------ SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," requires that, once adopted, amortization of goodwill will cease and as an alternative, the carrying value of goodwill will be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis. Intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be disposed of." SFAS No. 142 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The adoption of this statement will have no material impact on the Corporation's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. SFAS No. 143: - ------------ SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement cost would be capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. The effective date for SFAS No. 143 will be for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. SFAS No. 144: - ------------ SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," replaces SFAS No. 121. SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued operations. It also expands the reporting of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and that will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal 9 years beginning after December 15, 2001. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. ITEM 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General Provident Financial Holdings, Inc. ("Corporation"), a Delaware corporation, was organized in January 1996 for the purpose of becoming the holding company for Provident Savings Bank, F.S.B. ("Savings Bank") upon the Savings Bank's conversion from a federal mutual to a federal stock savings bank ("Conversion"). The Conversion was completed on June 27, 1996. At March 31, 2002, the Corporation had total assets of $1.0 billion, total deposits of $695.0 million and total stockholders' equity of $101.8 million. The Corporation has not engaged in any significant activity other than holding the stock of the Savings Bank. Accordingly, the information set forth in this report, including financial statements and related data, relates primarily to the Savings Bank and its subsidiaries. The Corporation, from time to time, may repurchase its common stock as a way to enhance the Corporation's earnings per share. The Corporation considers the repurchase of its common stock if the market value of the stock is lower than its book value and/or the Corporation believes that the current stock price is under valued as compared to its current and future income projections. Consideration is also given to the Corporation's liquidity and capital requirements and its future capital needs based on the Corporation's current business plans. The Corporation's Board of Directors authorizes each stock repurchase program, the duration of which is normally one year. Once the stock repurchase program is authorized, Management may repurchase its common stock from time to time in the open market, depending upon market conditions and the factors described above. The Savings Bank, founded in 1956, is federally chartered and headquartered in Riverside, California. The Savings Bank is regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), its primary federal regulator, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), the insurer of its deposits. The Savings Bank's deposits are federally insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC (under the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF")). The Savings Bank has been a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") system since 1956. The Savings Bank's business consists of traditional banking activities and mortgage banking activities. Traditional banking activities primarily consist of accepting deposits from customers within the communities surrounding the Savings Bank's full service offices and investing these funds in single-family loans, multi-family loans, commercial real estate loans, construction loans, commercial business loans, consumer loans and other real estate loans. In addition, the Savings Bank also offers business checking accounts, other business banking services and services loans for others. Mortgage banking activities consist of the origination and sale of mortgage and consumer loans secured primarily by single-family residences. The Savings Bank's revenues are derived principally from interest on its loan and investment portfolios and fees generated through its traditional banking and mortgage banking activities. There are various risks inherent in the Savings Bank's business. The Savings Bank's business is subject to, among other risks, interest rate changes and the prepayment of loans and investments. Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operation of the Corporation. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Selected Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Critical Accounting Policies The discussion and analysis of the Corporation's financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of 10 the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Accounting for the allowance for loan and lease losses involves significant judgments and assumptions by management, which have a material impact on the carrying value of net loans. Management considers this accounting policy to be a critical accounting policy. The judgments and assumptions used by management are based on historical data and management's view of the current economic environment as described in "Provision for Loan and Lease Losses". Interest is generally not accrued on any loan when its contractual payments are more than 90 days delinquent. In addition, interest is not recognized on any loan which management has determined that collection is not reasonably assured. A non-accrual loan may be restored to accrual status when delinquent principal and interest payments are brought current, the loan is paying in accordance with its payment terms for a minimum six-month period, and future monthly principal and interest payments are expected to be collected. Properties acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, are transferred to the real estate owned portfolio and carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value less the estimated costs to sell the property. The fair values of the properties are based upon current appraisals. The difference between the fair value of the real estate collateral and the loan balance at the time of transfer is recorded as a loan charge-off if fair value is lower. Subsequent to foreclosure, management periodically performs additional valuations and the properties are adjusted, if necessary, to the lower of carrying value or fair value, less estimated selling costs. The determination of a property's estimated fair value includes revenues projected to be realized from disposal of the property, construction and renovation costs. Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2001 Total assets as of March 31, 2002 decreased by $75.6 million to $1.04 billion from $1.12 billion at June 30, 2001. This decrease was primarily due to a decline in loans held for investment and the receivable from sale of loans, offset partly by the increase in investment securities and overnight deposits. Total loans held for investment decreased $108.0 million, or 15 percent, to $589.2 million at March 31, 2002 from $697.2 million at June 30, 2001. Accelerated loan prepayments driven by the extended refinance market during the nine months ended March 31, 2002 contributed to most of the decline. Total loan principal prepayments, including contractual principal amortization, during the nine months ended March 31, 2002 were $298.2 million while total loan originations were $193.6 million, including $28.5 million of purchased loans. During the nine months ended March 31, 2002, participation loans outstanding increased to $35.3 million or 6 percent of the loans held for investment from $29.0 million or 4 percent of the loans held for investment at June 30, 2001. The receivable from the sale of loans decreased by $69.9 million, or 51 percent, to $67.4 million at March 31, 2002 from $137.3 million at June 30, 2001. The decline in the receivable resulted from a shorter period of time between the loan funding dates and the loan sale settlement dates. Total investment securities increased $16.8 million, or 8 percent, to $221.3 million at March 31, 2002 from $204.5 million at June 30, 2001 while overnight deposits increased $87.0 million to $90.0 million at March 31, 2002 from $3.0 million at June 30, 2001. The increase in overnight deposits was the result of excess liquidity from loan prepayments, which exceeded the volume of portfolio loans originated during the period. For the first nine months of fiscal 2002, $256.8 million of investment securities were called by the issuer. The high volume of called securities was the result of the significant decline in interest rates during the period. The types of securities called were government agency callable bonds and were primarily issued by the FHLB, the Federal National Mortgage Association or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation. Total deposits decreased $35.0 million, or 5 percent, to $695.0 million at March 31, 2002 from $730.0 million at June 30, 2001. This decrease was generally attributable to a decrease in certificates of deposit, and was partially offset by increases in savings and checking accounts. The Corporation continued its focus on building client relationships through checking accounts and fee generating products and services. 11 Borrowings, which consist entirely of FHLB advances, declined by $43.3 million, or 16 percent, to $222.5 million at March 31, 2002 from $265.8 million at June 30, 2001. The average maturity of the Corporation's existing FHLB advances was approximately 47 months (25 months, based on call dates) at March 31, 2002 as compared to the average maturity of 46 months (27 months, based on call dates) at June 30, 2001. Total stockholders' equity increased by $4.5 million, or 5 percent, to $101.8 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2002, from $97.3 million at June 30, 2001 as a result of net income and the impact of stock based compensation accruals during the first nine months of fiscal 2002. This increase was partially reduced by the Corporation's stock repurchases during the first nine months of fiscal 2002. A total of 111,100 shares, with an average price of $24.75 per share, were repurchased during the first nine months of fiscal 2002. This resulted in a total of 154,100 shares repurchased, or 80 percent, of 193,000 shares authorized pursuant to the March 2001 Stock Repurchase Plan, at an average cost of $24.00 per share. The March 2001 Stock Repurchase Plan expired in March of 2002. On March 28, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Corporation authorized the repurchase of an additional 5 percent of its common stock, or approximately 185,000 shares, over a one-year period. Shares will be repurchased from time to time in the open market depending on market conditions and the capital requirements of the Corporation. During the first nine months of fiscal 2002, the Corporation also repurchased 10,696 shares relating to the Management Recognition Plan ("MRP") and awarded 4,558 shares pursuant to the MRP. Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarter and the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 The Corporation's net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was $2.0 million, a decrease of $343,000, or 15 percent, from $2.3 million during the same quarter of fiscal 2001. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in net interest income and an increase in compensation expense, and was partly offset by an increase in the gain on sale of loans. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, the Corporation's net income was $6.7 million, up $573,000 or 9 percent from $6.1 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the gain on sale of loans, and was partly offset by a decrease in net interest income and an increase in compensation expenses. The Corporation's net interest income before loan loss provision decreased by $152,000, or 2 percent to $6.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 from $6.6 million during the comparable period of fiscal 2001. This decrease resulted mainly from a decrease in the average loan balance, despite a higher net interest margin. The net interest margin improved to 2.59 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from 2.44 percent during the same period of fiscal 2001. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, the net interest income was $19.9 million, up $374,000 or 2 percent, from $19.6 million during the same period of fiscal 2001; and the net interest margin was 2.59 percent, up 18 basis points, from 2.41 percent. The increase in net interest income during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 was primarily due to a decline in the average cost of funds, which outpaced the decline in the average yield of the earning assets. The Corporation's efficiency ratio increased to 65 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from 60 percent in the same period of fiscal 2001. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the efficiency ratio was 63 percent and 64 percent, respectively. Return on average assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 decreased to 0.76 percent from 0.83 percent in the same period last year. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the return on average assets was 0.83 percent and 0.72 percent, respectively, an increase of 15 percent. Return on average equity for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 decreased to 7.88 percent from 10.61 percent in the same period last year. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the return on average equity was 8.92 percent and 9.21 percent, respectively. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 were $0.56, a decrease of 14 percent from $0.65 for the quarter ended March 31, 2001. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, the diluted earnings per share were $1.86 and $1.70, respectively, an increase of 9 percent. The increase in the diluted earnings per share reflected the effect of the higher net income recorded during the nine months ended March 31, 2002 and the Corporation's stock repurchase program during the last 12 months. 12 Interest Income. Total interest income decreased by $4.9 million, or 24 percent, to $15.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 from $20.2 million during the same quarter of fiscal 2001. This decrease was primarily the result of a lower average loan balance and a lower average loan yield. The average earning assets during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 were $998.0 million, a decrease of $84.9 million or 8 percent, from $1.08 billion during the same period last year. The average yield on earning assets during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 was 6.14 percent, 132 basis points lower than the average yield of 7.46 percent during the same period last year. Loan interest income decreased $4.7 million, or 28 percent, to $12.0 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2002 as compared to $16.7 million for the same quarter of fiscal 2001. This decrease was attributable to a lower average loan balance and a lower average loan yield. The average balance of loans outstanding, including the receivable from sale of loans and the loans held for sale decreased $196.4 million, or 23 percent, to $663.7 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $860.1 million during the same quarter of fiscal 2001. The average loan yield during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 was 7.24 percent as compared to 7.76 percent during the same quarter last year. The decline of the average loan balance and the average loan yield were primarily attributable to loan prepayments resulting from the significant decline in mortgage interest rates. Interest income from investment securities decreased $496,000, or 16 percent, to $2.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 from $3.2 million during the same quarter of fiscal 2001. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average yield, which was partly offset by an increase in the average balance. The yield on the investment securities portfolio decreased 143 basis points from 6.28 percent during the quarter ending March 31, 2001 to 4.85 percent during the quarter ending March 31, 2002. The average balance of investment securities increased $19.3 million, or 9 percent, to $223.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $203.8 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2001. FHLB stock dividends decreased by $75,000, or 28 percent, to $196,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $271,000 in the same period of fiscal 2001. This decrease was attributable to a lower average balance and a lower average yield. The average balance of FHLB stock declined to $14.9 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $16.5 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The average yield on FHLB stock decreased by 132 basis points to 5.27 percent during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from 6.59 percent during the same period last year. Interest income from interest-bearing deposits increased $369,000 to $408,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $39,000 in the same period of fiscal 2001. This increase was due mainly to a higher average balance and was partially offset by a lower average yield. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased to $96.3 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $2.6 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The increase in the average balance was primarily attributable to the increase of overnight federal funds investments, resulting from the excess liquidity described earlier. The average yield on the interest-bearing deposits decreased 434 basis points to 1.69 percent during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from 6.03 percent during the same period last year. The decline in the average yield was mainly due to the decline in the federal funds rate during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2001. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, total interest income decreased $9.9 million, or 16 percent, to $50.7 million as compared to $60.6 million for the same period of fiscal 2001. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of the average balance and a decrease of the average yield on earning assets. The average earning assets decreased $57.9 million, or 5 percent, to $1.03 billion during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $1.08 billion during the same period of fiscal 2001. The average yield on earning assets decreased 87 basis points to 6.60 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2002 from 7.47 percent during the same period of fiscal 2001. The interest income from loans decreased by $10.2 million, or 21 percent, to $39.6 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $49.8 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The average loans outstanding decreased $152.0 million, or 18 percent, to $708.1 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2002 from $860.1 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The average yield on loans decreased 13 27 basis points to 7.45 percent during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 as compared to 7.72 percent during the same period of fiscal 2001. Interest income from investment securities decreased $213,000, or 2 percent, to $9.3 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2002 from $9.6 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the average yield, which was partly offset by an increase in the average balance. The yield on the investment securities decreased 82 basis points from 6.26 percent during the nine months ending March 31, 2001 to 5.44 percent during the nine months ending March 31, 2002. The average balance of investment securities increased $25.8 million to $229.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $203.3 million in the same period of fiscal 2001. FHLB stock dividends decreased $593,000, or 51 percent, to $579,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $1.2 million in the same period of fiscal 2001. The decrease was attributable to a lower average balance, a lower yield and the FHLB stock dividend accrual of $270,000 recorded in the first nine months of fiscal 2001, which in prior periods was not recognized until received. The average balance of FHLB stock declined $1.8 million, or 10 percent, to $15.5 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $17.3 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The average yield on FHLB stock, excluding the adjustment accrual made in the first nine months of fiscal 2001, decreased 198 basis points to 4.98 percent during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from 6.95 percent during the same period last year. Interest income from interest-earning deposits increased $1.1 million to $1.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $100,000 in the same period of fiscal 2001. This increase was due mainly to a higher average balance, which was partially offset by a lower average yield. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased to $72.4 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $2.2 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The increase in the average balance was primarily attributable to the increase of federal funds investments, resulting from the excess liquidity. The average yield on the interest-bearing deposits decreased 393 basis points to 2.25 percent during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from 6.18 percent during the same period last year. Interest Expense. Total interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was $8.9 million as compared to $13.6 million for the same period of fiscal 2001, a decrease of $4.7 million, or 35 percent. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in both the average balance and the average cost. The average cost of liabilities was 3.88 percent during the quarter ended March 31, 2002, down 156 basis points compared to 5.44 percent during the same period of fiscal 2001. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities declined $87.8 million, or 9 percent, to $925.1 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $1.01 billion during the same period last year. Interest expense on deposits for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was $5.4 million as compared to $8.7 million for the same period of fiscal 2001, a decrease of $3.3 million, or 39 percent. Average deposits decreased $14.5 million, or 2 percent, to $696.3 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 from $710.8 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The average cost of deposits decreased to 3.12 percent during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 from 4.99 percent during the same quarter of fiscal 2001, a decline of 187 basis points.

(2) Income of FHLB stock in fiscal 2001 includes accrual of FHLB dividends, totaling $270,000, which in prior periods were not recognized until received. Provision for Loan and Lease Losses. A total of $129,000 of loan loss provisions were added during the third quarter of fiscal 2002, as compared to zero during the same period of fiscal 2001. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, a total of $375,000 of loan loss provisions were added as compared to zero during the same period last year. The allowance for loan and lease losses was $5.7 million at March 31, 2002 as compared to $6.7 million for the same period of fiscal 2001. The decline in the allowance during the quarter was mainly attributable to the charge-off or partial charge-off recorded on four commercial business loans, totaling $388,000; which was partially offset by recoveries on five commercial business loans, totaling $203,000. Non-performing assets, including real estate owned, as a percentage of total assets increased to 0.29 percent at March 31, 2002 from 0.27 percent last year. The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of gross loans held for investment improved to 0.97 percent at March 31, 2002 from 0.86 percent at March 31, 2001. The allowance for loan and lease losses declined by slightly less than $1.0 million during the prior twelve-month period, resulting mainly from higher loan charge-offs, net of recoveries. The charge-offs occurred primarily in the commercial loan portfolio. Of the $388,000 charged-off during the third quarter of fiscal 2002, a total of $354,000 was linked to one business borrower. The borrower has had a significant cash flow problem causing the Corporation to re-evaluate the borrowers ability to repay its loans. The Corporation negotiated a repayment plan with the borrower that appears to facilitate the full repayment of principal and interest. The allowance for loan and lease losses is maintained at a level sufficient to provide for estimated losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio and upon management's continuing 19 analysis of the factors underlying the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio, actual loan and lease loss experience, current economic conditions, detailed analysis of individual loans for which full collectibility may not be assured, and determination of the realizable value of the collateral securing the loans. Provisions for losses are charged against operations on a monthly basis as necessary to maintain the allowance at appropriate levels. Management believes that the amount maintained in the allowance will be adequate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. Although management believes it uses the best information available to make such determinations, there can be no assurance that regulators, in reviewing the Corporation's loan portfolio, will not request the Corporation to increase significantly its allowance for loan and lease losses. Future adjustments to the allowance for loan and lease losses may be necessary and results of operations could be significantly and adversely affected due to economic, operating, regulatory, and other conditions beyond the control of the Corporation. 20 The following table is provided to disclose additional details on the Corporation's allowance for loan and lease losses and asset quality: Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (Dollars in thousands) For the For Quarter Ended Nine Months Ended March 31, March 31, ---------------------------------- 2002 2001 2002 2001 ============================================================================= Allowance at beginning of period........ $ 5,820 $ 6,823 $ 6,068 $ 6,850 Provision for loan and lease losses..... 129 - 375 - Recoveries: Mortgage loans: Single-family ........................ 9 - 28 24 Multi-family.......................... - - 67 - Commercial............................ - - 2 - Construction.......................... - - - - Consumer loans ......................... - - - - Commercial business loans .............. 203 - 203 - - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total recoveries...................... 212 - 300 24 Charge-offs: Mortgage loans: Single-family......................... - (106) (9) (155) Multi-family.......................... - - - - Commercial............................ - - - - Construction ......................... - - - - Consumer loans .........................

Total non-interest income increased $404,000, or 12 percent, to $3.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 from $3.3 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The increase in non-interest income was primarily attributable to an increase in gains on sale of loans. The gain on sale of loans increased $357,000, or 19 percent, to $2.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 from $1.9 million during the same quarter of fiscal 2001. This increase was primarily due to a higher volume of loans originated for sale and a higher average loan sale margin in the third quarter of 21 fiscal 2002 compared to the same quarter of fiscal 2001. Total loans originated for sale during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 increased $51.1 million, or 23 percent, to $269.1 million as compared to $218.0 million in the same period of fiscal 2001. The increase in the loans originated for sale was a result of the declines in mortgage rates, which created a refinance market. The average loan sale margin during the third quarter of fiscal 2002 (which has been adjusted to include a $142,000 favorable change in the unrealized fair value of derivatives outstanding) was 0.89 percent as compared to 0.88 percent during the same period of fiscal 2001. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, total non-interest income increased $2.5 million, or 28 percent, to $11.7 million from $9.2 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The increase in non-interest income was primarily attributable to an increase in the gain on sale of loans. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, the gain on sale of loans increased $2.6 million, or 55 percent, to $7.4 million from $4.8 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. This increase was primarily due to a higher volume of loans originated for sale, which was partially offset by a lower average loan sale margin. Total loans originated for sale during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 increased $415.2 million, or 91 percent, to $873.4 million as compared to $458.2 million in the same period of fiscal 2001. The average loan sale margin during the first nine months of fiscal 2002 (which has been adjusted to include a $97,000 unfavorable change in the unrealized fair value of derivatives outstanding) was 0.84 percent as compared to 1.04 percent during the same period of fiscal 2001. Non-Interest Expense. Total non-interest expense increased $658,000, or 11 percent, to $6.6 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 from $5.9 million in the same period of fiscal 2001. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in compensation, premises, equipment and professional expenses related to higher loan production volume and the operating costs of the new branches in Corona and Temecula, California. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in marketing and other operating expenses. The efficiency ratio in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 was 65 percent as compared to 60 percent during the same period last year. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, total non-interest expense increased $1.5 million, or 8 percent, to $19.8 million from $18.3 million during the same period last year. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in compensation, premises, equipment and professional expenses related to higher loan production volume and the operating costs of the new branches in Corona and Temecula, California. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, the efficiency ratio improved to 63 percent from 64 percent during the same period last year. Income taxes. Income tax expense was $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 as compared to $1.6 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The effective tax rate for the third quarters ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 was approximately 42 percent and 41 percent, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, income tax expense was $4.8 million as compared to $4.4 million during the same period of fiscal 2001. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 was approximately 42 percent. Asset Quality. Non-accrual loans, which primarily consisted of single-family loans, declined $419,000 to $1.6 million at March 31, 2002 from $2.0 million at March 31, 2001. No interest accruals were made for loans, which were past due 90 days or more. Primarily due to the declines in the loan portfolio outstanding, the non-accrual and 90 days or more past due loans as a percentage of net loans held for investment increased to 0.27 percent at March 31, 2002 from 0.26 percent at March 31, 2001. The Corporation reviews significant loans individually and identifies impairment when the accrual of interest has been discontinued, loans have been restructured or management has serious doubts about the future collectibility of principal and interest, even though the loans are currently performing. Factors considered in determining impairment include, but are not limited to, expected future cash flows, financial condition of the borrower and the current economic conditions. The Corporation measures each impaired 22 loan based on the fair value of its collateral and charges off those loans or portions of loans deemed uncollectible.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Corporation's primary sources of funding include deposits, proceeds from loan principal and interest payments, sales of loans, the maturity of and interest income on investment securities, and FHLB advances. The Savings Bank has a credit line available with the FHLB of San Francisco equal to 40 percent of its total assets, collateralized by loans and securities, which at March 31, 2002 permitted additional advances of $127.1 million. In addition, the Savings Bank has an unsecured line of credit of $45.0 million with its correspondent bank. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, loan sales, and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. 24 The Savings Bank must maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the availability of sufficient funds to support loan growth and deposit withdrawals, to satisfy financial commitments and to take advantage of investment opportunities. The Savings Bank generally maintains sufficient cash to meet short-term liquidity needs. At March 31, 2002, cash and cash equivalents totaled $113.5 million, or 11 percent of total assets. Depending on market conditions and the pricing of deposit products and FHLB borrowings, the Savings Bank may rely on FHLB borrowings or unsecured lines for its liquidity needs. Based on the OTS Transmittal (TR-259) of October 11, 2001, the OTS repealed the liquidity regulation. Even though the liquidity requirement of 4 percent has been eliminated, the rule still requires thrifts to maintain adequate liquidity to assure safe and sound operation. The Savings Bank's average liquidity ratio for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 increased to 39 percent from 21 percent during the same period ending March 31, 2001. This increase was primarily due to the unexpected volume of loan prepayments during recent quarters and the deployment of the cash flows into qualifying liquid investments. The Corporation has been experiencing a large volume of loan prepayments in its loan portfolio; and it has become increasingly difficult to reinvest these cash flows in assets that carry similar or better interest rate risk characteristics. The recent refinance market has been dominated by fixed rate loans and the Corporation has not added long-term fixed rate loans to its portfolio at a time when interest rates are at or near historical lows. Therefore, while the Corporation has taken steps to address the issue of rising liquidity levels, the Corporation finds that a larger percentage of its earning assets are invested at significantly lower rates than the Corporation would like. The Corporation has mitigated the impact of this in several ways. The Corporation has increased the balance of the investment securities portfolio, generated more loans for portfolio from its mortgage banking, business banking and major loan divisions, and purchased commercial real estate and construction participation loans from other financial institutions. The Corporation also reduced the balance of certificates of deposit and reduced the balance of Federal Home Loan Bank advances. This has been accomplished with prudent interest-rate-risk management practices. The Corporation is committed to increase the loan portfolio mix with more emphasis on commercial real estate, construction, multi-family, commercial business and consumer loans. These loans generally have higher yields as compared to single-family loans. During the first nine months of fiscal 2002, the volume of loans generated for portfolio increased by 211%, to $193.6 million, in comparison to the same period last year; and the average balance of the investment securities portfolio grew by 13% or $25.8 million. These are significant improvements but are insufficient in and of themselves to offset the prepayment volumes that the Corporation has experienced. The Corporation will continue to seek increased activity in these areas but must also have a slowdown in loan prepayments to have the desired impact on the balance sheet and income statement. Recently, loan prepayments have declined and the number of portfolio loans generated by the mortgage division has increased. The Savings Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum requirements can initiate certain mandatory actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Corporation's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Savings Bank must meet certain specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Savings Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Savings Bank's capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings, and other factors. 25 The Savings Bank's actual and required capital amounts and ratios as of March 31, 2002 are as follows (dollars in thousands): Amount Percent =============================================================== Tangible capital.........................$ 87,052 8.46% Requirement.............................. 20,571 2.00% --------------------------------------------------------------- Excess over requirement..................$ 66,481 6.46% =============================================================== Tier 1 (core) capital....................$ 87,052 8.46% Requirement to be "Well Capitalized".....$ 51,426 5.00% --------------------------------------------------------------- Excess over requirement..................$ 35,626 3.46% =============================================================== Total risk-based capital.................$ 93,318 17.32% Requirement to be "Well Capitalized".....$ 53,871 10.00% --------------------------------------------------------------- Excess over requirement..................$ 39,447 7.32% =============================================================== Tier 1 risk-based capital................$ 87,052 16.16% Requirement to be "Well Capitalized".....$ 32,322 6.00% --------------------------------------------------------------- Excess over requirement..................$ 54,730 10.16% =============================================================== Commitments and Derivatives. The Corporation is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, in the form of originating loans or providing funds under existing lines of credit, and forward sale agreements to sell loans to third parties. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Corporation's exposure to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by the other party to these financial instruments, is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

These commitments generally have expiration dates within 60 days of the commitment date and may require the payment of a fee. Since some of these commitments are expected to expire, the total commitment amount outstanding does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Corporation evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis prior to issuing a commitment. At March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2001, interest rates on commitments to extend credit ranged from 5.75% to 15.38% and 5.50% to 8.75%, respectively. In an effort to minimize its exposure to interest rate fluctuations on commitments to extend credit where the underlying loan will be sold, the Corporation enters into forward sale agreements to sell certain dollar amounts of fixed rate and adjustable rate loans to third parties. These agreements specify the minimum 26 maturity of the loans, the yield to the purchaser, the servicing spread to the Corporation (if servicing is retained), the maximum principal amount of all loans to be delivered and the maximum principal amount of individual loans to be delivered. The Corporation typically satisfies these forward sale agreements with its current loan production; at March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2001 the aggregate amount of loans held for sale and of commitments to extend credit were closely matched to the Corporation's forward sale agreements to sell loans. At March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2001, interest rates on forward sale agreements to sell loans ranged from 5.50% to 7.00% and 5.50% to 7.50%, respectively. In addition to the instruments described above, the Corporation also purchases over-the-counter put option contracts (with expiration dates that generally coincide with the terms of the commitments to extend credit) which mitigates the interest rate risk inherent in commitments to extend credit. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Corporation has in this particular class of financial instruments. The Savings Bank's exposure to loss on these financial instruments is limited to the premiums paid for the put option contracts. Put options are adjusted to market in accordance with SFAS No. 133. In accordance with SFAS No. 133 and interpretations of the Derivative Implementation Group, the fair value of the commitments to extend credit (including servicing released premiums), forward sale agreements and put option contracts recorded on the balance sheet at March 31, 2002 have been presented in the table below. As of June 30, 2001, commitments to extend credit were not interpreted to be derivatives. As such, these amounts were not included on the balance sheet for the period ending June 30, 2001 and are not included in the table below.

The ability of the Corporation to pay dividends depends primarily on the ability of the Savings Bank to pay dividends to the Corporation. The Savings Bank may not declare or pay a cash dividend if the effect thereof would cause its net worth to be reduced below either the amounts required for its liquidation account or the regulatory capital requirements imposed by federal and state regulation. In January 2002, the Savings Bank paid a dividend of $1.2 million to the Corporation for the primary purpose of funding the March 2001 Stock Repurchase Plan. For the nine months ended March 31, 2002, cash dividends of $3.6 million ($1.2 million in August 2001, $1.2 million in October 2001 and $1.2 million in January 2002) were declared and paid by the Savings Bank to the Corporation to fund the stock repurchase plan. Stock Option Plan and Management Recognition Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the Corporation's 1996 Stock Option Plan ("Plan"), the Corporation granted options for 85,500 shares of common stock on October 30, 2001 to certain officers, directors and employees. Pursuant to the Plan, the options vest at a rate of 20 percent per year over a five-year period. Pursuant to the terms of the Corporation's MRP, the Corporation awarded 4,558 restricted shares of common stock on October 30, 2001 to certain officers and directors. Pursuant to the MRP, the restricted shares vest over a period ranging from one to five years and on a yearly pro-rata vesting schedule. 27 Supplemental Information March 31, 2002 June 30, March 31, 2001 2001 ============================================================================== Loans serviced for others (in thousands)........... $ 150,126 $ 203,813 $ 223,271 Book value per share.............. $ 27.45 $ 25.52 $ 24.72 ============================================================================== ITEM 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk The principal financial objective of the Corporation's interest rate risk management function is to achieve long-term profitability while limiting its exposure to the fluctuation of interest rates. The Savings Bank, through its Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO), has sought to reduce the exposure of its earnings to changes in market interest rates by managing the mismatch between asset and liability maturities. The principal element in achieving this objective is to manage the interest-rate sensitivity of the Savings Bank's assets by holding loans with interest rates subject to periodic market adjustments. In addition, the Savings Bank maintains a liquid investment portfolio comprised of government agency securities, including mortgage backed securities, and investment grade securities. The Savings Bank relies on retail deposits as its primary source of funding while utilizing FHLB advances as a secondary source of funding. As part of its interest rate risk management strategy, the Savings Bank promotes transaction accounts and certificates of deposit with terms up to five years. Through the use of an internal interest rate risk model, the Savings Bank is able to analyze its interest rate risk exposure by measuring the change in Net Portfolio Value ("NPV") over a variety of interest rate scenarios. NPV is the net present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts. The calculation is intended to illustrate the change in NPV that would occur in the event of an immediate change in interest rates of at least 100 basis points with no effect given to any steps which management might take to counter the effect of that interest rate movement. The following table represents the estimated NPV based on the indicated changes in interest rates as of March 31, 2002 (dollars in thousands). NPV as percentage Net NPV Portfolio Of Portfolio Value Sensitivity Basis Points ("bp") Portfolio Change Value Assets Measure Change in Rates Value (1) Assets (2) (3) =================================================================================================== <s> <c> <c> <c> <c> <c> +300 bp. $ 88,786 $(49,457) $ 976,374 9.09% -396 +200 bp. 110,487 (27,756) 1,008,123 10.96% -209 +100 bp. 126,141 (12,102) 1,033,806 12.20% -85 0 bp. 138,243 - 1,059,675 13.05% 0 -100 bp. 142,753 4,510 1,071,891 13.32% 27 -200 bp. 140,100 1,858 1,082,229 12.95% -10 -300 bp. 125,698 (12,545) 1,080,442 11.63% -142 =================================================================================================== (1) Represents the increase (decrease) of the estimated NPV at the indicated interest rate change in comparison to the NPV estimated at March 31, 2002 ("base case"). (2) Calculated as the estimated NPV divided by the Portfolio Value ("PV") of assets. (3) Calculated as the change in the NPV ratio from the base case amount assuming the indicated change in interest rates (expressed in basis points). 28 The following table represents the change in the NPV at a +200 basis point rate shock at March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2001. Risk measure: +200 basis point rate shock At March 31, 2002 At June 30, 2001* ============================================================================== Pre-shock NPV ratio: NPV as a % of PV assets 13.05 % 11.71 % Post-shock NPV ratio: NPV as a % of PV assets 10.96 % 10.33 % Sensitivity measure: Change in NPV ratio 209 bps. 138 bps. ============================================================================== (*) Based on IRR analysis provided by the OTS. The results of the internal IRR model are reconciled with the results provided by the OTS on a quarterly basis. Any significant deviations are researched and adjusted where applicable. Historically, the internal model has generally reflected a more conservative position with the sensitivity measure higher than those of the OTS. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate mortgage ("ARM") loans, have features, which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early withdrawals from certificates of deposit could likely deviate significantly from those assumed when calculating the tables above. It is also possible that, as a result of an interest rate increase, the increased mortgage payments required of ARM borrowers could result in an increase in delinquencies and defaults. Changes in market interest rates may also affect the volume and profitability of the Corporation's mortgage banking operations. Accordingly, the data presented in the tables above should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results in the event of changes in interest rates. Furthermore, the NPV presented in the foregoing tables is not intended to present the fair market value of the Savings Bank, nor does it represent amounts that would be available for distribution to stockholders in the event of the liquidation of the Corporation.
