Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements for Timberland Bancorp, Inc. ("Company") were prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America for interim financial information and with 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. However, all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim consolidated
financial statements have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the
Timberland Bancorp, Inc. 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of
operations for the six months ended March 31, 2004 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 Bank ("Bank"), and the Bank's wholly-
owned subsidiary, Timberland Service Corp. All significant intercompany
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
(c) The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

(2) 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 and awarded but not released
Management Recognition and Development Plan ("MRDP") shares. 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 March 31, 2004 and 2003, there
were 326,216 and 361,483 ESOP shares, respectively, that had not been
allocated.

(3) STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
At March 31, 2004 the Company has an employee and director stock option plan.
The Company accounts for options granted under that plan under the recognition
and measurement principles of APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees and related interpretations. Accordingly, no stock-based
compensation cost is reflected in net income as the exercise price for all
options granted under the plan was equal to the market value of the Company's
stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net
income and earnings per share for the three and six months ended March 31,
2004 and 2003 if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions
of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation for the effects of
all options granted:

record as of the close of business May 10, 2004.

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 and
six months ended March 31, 2004. 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 competition in the financial
services market for both deposits and loans, 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 March 31, 2004 and September 30, 2003
Total Assets: Total assets decreased $3.3 million to $446.3 million at March
31, 2004 from $449.6 million at September 30, 2003 primarily due to a decrease
in the Company's interest bearing deposits in banks. The balance in the
Company's interest bearing deposits decreased by $20.2 million primarily due
to the repurchase of 411,316 shares of Timberland Bancorp, Inc. stock for $9.5
million and the repayment of $6.6 million of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
Partially offsetting the decrease in interest bearing balances was a $12.3
million increase in net loans receivable, a $3.1 million increase in cash and
due from financial institutions, and a $1.7 million increase in investment
securities. A portion of the increased loan portfolio was funded by a $9.3
million increase in deposits.
Cash and Due from Financial Institutions: Cash and due from financial
institutions increased to $11.7 million at March 31, 2004 from $8.6 million at
September 30, 2003.
Interest Bearing Deposits in Banks: Interest bearing deposits in banks
decreased $20.2 million to $9.3 million at March 31, 2004 from $29.5 million
at September 30, 2003, as a portion of the Company's short-term deposits were
used to fund the share repurchase plans, to repay FHLB advances, to fund
loans, and to purchase investment securities.
Securities: Securities increased $1.7 million to $56.0 million at March 31,
2004 from $54.3 million at September 30, 2003. This increase is primarily due
to investing a portion of the Company's interest bearing deposits in Banks
into U.S. agency securities. At March 31, 2004, the Company's securities'
portfolio was comprised of mutual funds of $32.8 million, mortgage-backed
securities of $15.2 million, and U.S. agency securities of $8.0 million. The
mutual funds invest primarily in mortgage-backed products and U.S. agency
securities.
Loans: Net loans receivable, including loans held-for-sale, increased by $12.3
million to $334.6 million at March 31, 2004 from $322.2 at September 30, 2003.
The increase in the portfolio was primarily a result of a $6.5 million
increase in commercial real estate loans, a $4.6 million increase in
construction loans (net of undisbursed portion), a $1.9 million increase in
consumer loans, and a $1.6 million increase in land loans. These increases
were partially offset by a $2.1 million decrease in the Bank's one-to-four
family mortgage loan portfolio. Loan originations totaled $32.4 million and
$86.7 million for the three and six months ended March
12
31, 2004, compared to $58.5 million and $109.3 million for the same periods a
year earlier. The Bank sold $12.6 million and $22.9 million in fixed rate
one-to-four family mortgage loans for the three and six months ended March 31,
2004, compared to $27.5 million and $62.3 million for the same periods a year
earlier.
President Michael Sand commented on loan demand, "While we have seen a
reduction in the volume of refinanced mortgages we are pleased with the level
of residential construction loans we have originated and we continue to see
strong demand for commercial real estate loans through our Business Banking
Division."
For additional information, see "Loan Portfolio Composition" section and
"Construction and Land Development Loan Portfolio Composition" section
included herein.
Real Estate Owned and Other Repossessed Items: Real estate owned ("REO") and
other repossessed items decreased to $484,000 at March 31, 2004 from $1.258
million at September 30, 2003 as several properties were sold. At March 31,
2004, the REO amount was primarily comprised of one-to-four family homes
totaling $338,000 and land parcels totaling $136,000. For additional
information, see "Non-performing assets" section included herein.
Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment increased by $334,000 to $13.8
million at March 31, 2004 from $13.4 million at September 30, 2003. This
increase is primarily due to costs associated with the remodeling and
expansion of the Bank's home office in Hoquiam, and costs associated with
preparing the Gig Harbor branch for opening.
President Michael Sand provided an update on the Bank's branch expansion
plans. " The Bank anticipates opening its 16th full-service office in June
2004. The office will be established in the expanding Gig Harbor Washington
market. Richard Pifer of Gig Harbor has been named Vice President and Branch
Manager. Mr. Pifer is a 12-year resident of Gig Harbor and has over 23 years
of banking experience."
Deposits: Deposits increased by $9.3 million to $317.0 million at March 31,
2004 from $307.7 million at September 30, 2003, primarily due to a $14.7
million increase in the Bank's N.O.W. checking accounts and a $992,000
increase in non-interest bearing accounts. These increases were partially
offset by a $3.5 million decrease in money market accounts, $1.6 million
decrease in certificate of deposit accounts, and a $1.2 million decrease in
savings accounts. The Bank continues to focus on attracting transaction
accounts rather than higher-rate time deposits. Transaction accounts
represent a stronger core deposit relationship than other types of deposit
accounts. For additional information, see "Deposit Breakdown" section
included herein.
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Advances: FHLB advances decreased to $55.0
million at March 31, 2004 from $61.6 million at September 30, 2003 as the Bank
was able to repay a maturing advance. For additional information, see "FHLB
Advance Maturity Schedule" included herein.
Shareholders' Equity: Total shareholders' equity decreased by $6.1 million to
$71.5 million at March 31, 2004 from $77.6 million at September 30, 2003,
primarily due to the repurchase of 411,316 shares of the Company's stock for
$9.5 million and the payment of $1.2 million in dividends to shareholders.
Partially offsetting these decreases to equity, were net income of $2.8
million and a $1.0 million increase to additional paid in capital from the
exercise of stock options. Also affecting shareholders' equity were decreases
of $322,000 and $265,000 in the equity components related to unearned shares
issued to the Management Recognition and Development Plan and the Employee
Stock Ownership Plans.
On February 23, 2004, the Company announced the completion of its 11th stock
repurchase plan. The Company repurchased 380,038 shares at an average price
of $22.64 per share. The Company repurchased 267,930 of these shares during
the quarter ended March 31, 2004.
13
On February 27, 2004, the Company announced a plan to repurchase 360,670
shares of the Company's stock. This marked the Company's 12th stock
repurchase plan. As of March 31, 2004, the Company has repurchased 143,386 of
these shares at an average price of $23.01 per share. Cumulatively the
Company has repurchased 3,121,987 (47.2%) of the 6,612,500 shares that were
issued when the Company went public in January 1998 at an average price of
$14.79 per share. For additional information, see Item 2 of Part II of this
Form 10-Q.
Non-performing Assets: The Company's non-performing asset ratio to total
asset ratio ("NPA") decreased to 1.00% at March 31, 2004 from 1.15% at
September 30, 2003, as total non-performing assets decreased to $4.44 million
from $5.15 million. The ratio decreased primarily due to a $774,000 decrease
in real estate owned balances.
The non-performing loan total of $4.0 million at March 31, 2004 consisted of
$1.1 million in one-to-four family loans, $872,000 in land development loans,
$850,000 in one-to-four family construction loans, $707,000 in commercial real
estate loans, $392,000 in land loans, $30,000 in commercial business loans,
and $22,000 in consumer loans. Despite historically having a higher
percentage of non-performing loans than relevant peer group averages, the
Company's actual charge-offs have remained low. The Company's net charge-offs
to outstanding loans ratio was a minimal .01% for the quarter ended March 31,
2004 and during the last five fiscal years has averaged less than .10% per
year.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Six Months Ended March 31,
2004 and 2003
Net Income: Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was $1.42 million,
or $0.36 per diluted share ($0.38 per basic share) compared to $1.79 million,
or $0.45 per diluted share ($0.47 per basic share) for the quarter ended March
31, 2003. The lower earnings for the current quarter were primarily a result
of decreased income from loan sales and increased employee costs (resulting
from a larger employee base) and increased premises and equipment expenses.
The $0.09 per share decrease in earnings for the quarter was primarily a
result of the $382,000 ($252,000 net of income tax - $0.065 per diluted share)
decrease in non-interest income and the $309,000 ($204,000 net of income tax -
$0.052 per diluted share) increase in non-interest expense. These items were
partially offset by a $153,000 ($101,000 net of income tax - $0.026 per
diluted share) increase in net interest income after provision for loan
losses.
Net income for the six months ended March 31, 2004 was $2.81 million, or $0.71
per diluted share ($0.74 per basic share) compared to $3.66 million, or $0.91
per diluted share ($0.95 per basic share) for the six months ended March 31,
2003. The $0.20 per share decrease in earnings for the six months ended March
31, 2004 was primarily a result of the $1.02 million ($671,000 net of income
tax - $0.169 per diluted share) decrease in non-interest income and the
$645,000 ($426,000 net of income tax - $0.107 per diluted share) increase in
non-interest expense. These items were partially offset by a $392,000
($259,000 net of income tax - $0.065 per diluted share) increase in net
interest income after provision for loan losses.
Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased $76,000 to $4.83 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 from $4.75 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 2003, primarily due to a larger interest earning asset base and a
decrease in the Company's funding costs. Average total interest earning
assets increased by $17.9 million to $418.0 million for the current quarter
from $400.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003. Total interest
expense decreased by $351,000 to $1.89 million for the quarter ended March 31,
2004 from $2.24 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 as the Company's
total cost of funds decreased to 2.20% from 2.73%. Total interest income
decreased $275,000 to $6.72 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 from
$6.99 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, primarily due to a
reduction in average yields on earning assets. The yield on earning assets
was 6.43% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared to 6.99% for the
quarter ended March 31, 2003. As a result of these changes, the net interest
margin decreased to 4.62% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 from 4.75% for
the quarter ended March 31, 2003.
Net interest income increased $192,000 to $9.69 million for the six months
ended March 31, 2004 from $9.50 million for the six months ended March 31,
2003, primarily due to a larger interest earning asset base and a decrease in
the Company's funding costs. Average total interest earning assets increased
by $15.4 million to $418.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2004
from $402.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2003. Total interest
expense decreased by $833,000 to $3.87 million for the six months ended March
31, 2004 from $4.70 million for the six months ended March 31, 2003 as the
Company's total cost of funds decreased to 2.25% from 2.84%. Total interest
income decreased $641,000 to $13.56 million for the six months ended March 31,
2004 from $14.20 million for the six months ended March 31, 2003, primarily
due to a reduction in average yields on earning assets. The yield on earning
assets was 6.48% for the six months ended March 31, 2004 compared to 7.05% for
the six months ended March 31, 2003. As a result of these changes, the net
interest margin decreased to 4.63% for the six months ended March 31, 2004
from 4.71% for the six months ended March 31, 2003.
Provision for Loan Losses: The provision for loan losses for the quarter
ended March 31, 2004 decreased $77,000 to $30,000 from $107,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2003. The provision for loan losses for the six
months ended March 31, 2004 decreased $200,000 to $80,000 from $280,000 for
the period ended March
19
31, 2003. The Bank has established a systematic and comprehensive methodology
for the determination of provisions for loan losses. On a quarterly basis the
Bank performs an analysis taking into consideration historic loss experience
for various loan segments, collateral securing individual loans on non-accrual
status, changes in economic conditions, delinquency rates, and other factors
to determine the level of allowance for loan losses needed.
Based on its analysis, management deemed the allowance for loan losses of
$3.93 million at March 31, 2004 (1.16% of loans receivable and 99.2% of
non-performing loans) adequate to provide for probable losses based on an
evaluation of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio at that date.
The allowance for loan losses was $3.87 million (1.25% of loans receivable and
113.8% of non-performing loans) at March 31, 2003. The balance of the
allowance for loan losses was increased during the past year primarily because
of the increased size of the loan portfolio. The Company had a net charge-off
of $29,000 for the current quarter compared to a net charge-off of $16,000 in
the same quarter of 2003. For the six months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
net charge-offs were $44,000 and $42,000, respectively. For additional
information, see the "Activity in the Allowance for Loan Losses" section
included herein.
Non-interest Income: Total non-interest income decreased $382,000 to $1.11
million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 from $1.50 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 2003, primarily due to a $207,000 decrease in income
from loan sales (gain on sale of loans and servicing income on loans sold), a
$42,000 decrease in ATM transaction fees, a $33,000 decrease in escrow fees,
and a $33,000 decrease in loan application fees. Income from loans sales
decreased as mortgage banking activity slowed. Mortgage loan originations
have declined nationally which has resulted in a decrease in the fee income
generated from mortgage banking activities. The Bank sold $12.6 million in
fixed rate one-to-four mortgages during the quarter ended March 31, 2004
compared to $27.5 million for the same period a year ago.
Total non-interest income decreased $1.02 million to $2.13 million for the six
months ended March 31, 2004 from $3.15 million for the six months ended March
31, 2003, primarily due to a $596,000 decrease in income from loan sales (gain
on sale of loans and servicing income on loans sold), a $93,000 decrease in
service charges on deposits, a $79,000 decrease in ATM transaction fees, a
$63,000 decrease in escrow fees, and a $61,000 decrease in loan application
fees. Income from loan sales decreased as mortgage banking activity slowed.
The Bank sold $22.9 million in fixed rate one-to-four mortgages during the six
months ended March 31, 2004 compared to $62.3 million for the same period a
year ago.
Non-interest Expense: Total non-interest expense increased by $309,000 to
$3.84 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 from $3.53 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 2003. The increase is primarily a result of increased
employee expenses and increased premises and equipment expenses. Salaries and
employee benefit expenses increased by $203,000 due to a larger employee base,
annual salary adjustments, and increased medical insurance costs. The number
of full-time equivalent employees increased to 188 at March 31, 2004 from 175
at March 31, 2003. The Bank's employee base grew during this period as the
Olympia branch was opened (September 2003), several employees that will be
staffing the Gig Harbor branch were hired, and staffing levels in several
other departments were increased. Premises and equipment expenses increased
by $95,000 to $465,000 for the current quarter from $370,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2003, primarily due to the additional branch opened (Olympia),
costs associated with the upcoming Gig Harbor branch, and increased utility
expenses. Partially offsetting the increased non-interest expenses was a
$90,000 gain from real estate operations primarily due to the sale of three
REO properties.
Total non-interest expense increased by $645,000 to $7.67 million for the six
months ended March 31, 2004 from $7.02 million for the six ended March 31,
2003. The increase is primarily a result of increased employee expenses,
increased premises and equipment expenses, and expenses related to the Bank's
technology conversion. The technology-related conversion expenses totaled
$145,000 for the six months ended and are
20
reflected in the income statement under salaries and employee benefits
($67,000) and other non-interest expenses ($78,000). (For additional
information on the technology conversion, see the "Technology Improvement
Update" section included herein.) In addition to the conversion related
expenses for employee overtime, salaries and employee benefit expenses also
increased by $298,000 due to a larger employee base, annual salary
adjustments, and increased medical insurance costs. Premises and equipment
expenses increased by $194,000 to $927,000 for the six months ended March 31,
2004 from $733,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2003, primarily due to
the two additional branches opened (Silverdale - January 2003; Olympia -
September 2003), costs associated with the upcoming Gig Harbor branch, the
remodeling and expansion of the Bank's main office, and increased utility
expenses.
President Michael Sand commented on the impact of the new branches. "We have
continued our branching initiatives by branching into markets we consider
beneficial for our franchise. Branching has placed us near larger population
groups and has enabled us to operate in several diverse economies."
Provision for Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes decreased to
$647,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 from $818,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2003. The Company's effective tax rate was 31.3% for the
quarter ended March 31, 2004 and 31.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2003.
The provision for income taxes decreased to $1.26 million for the six months
ended March 31, 2004 from $1.68 million for the six months ended March 31,
2003. The Company's effective tax rate was 30.9% for the six months ended
March 31, 2004 compared to 31.4% for the six months ended March 31, 2003. The
lower effective tax rate resulted primarily from a higher percentage of
tax-exempt income during the current six month period.
Technology Improvement Update
- -----------------------------
The Company incurred additional expenses associated with the technology
improvements that were implemented in the previous fiscal year. In August
2003, Timberland converted to the Kirchman Bankway core processing system from
its in-house supported system. The Bank also upgraded its Internet banking
system, its loan platform system and changed its ATM service provider. These
technology enhancements were undertaken to provide additional opportunities to
serve and expand the Bank's customer base. The Company incurred expenses of
$145,000 ($96,000 net of income tax - $0.02 per diluted share) related to the
technology enhancements and associated conversion costs during the six months
ended March 31, 2004. Cumulatively, the Bank has incurred expenses of
$731,000 ($482,000 net of income tax - $0.12 per diluted share) related to the
technology enhancements since the project began in February 2003. While the
technology upgrades have reduced profitability in the short term, we believe
the investment will be beneficial for our customers and ultimately to our
long-term investors.
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. 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.
An analysis of liquidity should also include a review of the changes that
appear in the consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended
March 31, 2004. The statement of cash flows includes operating, investing and
financing categories. Operating activities include net income, which is
adjusted for non-cash items, and increases or decreases in cash due to certain
changes in assets and liabilities. Investing activities consist
21
primarily of proceeds from maturities and sales of securities, purchases of
securities, and the net change in loans. Financing activities present the
cash flows associated with the Company's deposit accounts, other borrowings
and stock related transactions.
The Company's consolidated total of cash and due from financial institutions
and interest bearing deposits in bank's decreased by $17.1 million to $21.0
million at March 31, 2004 from $38.1 million at September 30, 2003. The
Company's liquid assets decreased primarily due to the repurchase of 411,316
shares of the Timberland Bancorp, Inc. stock for $9.5 million and the
repayment of $6.6 million in maturing Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
The Bank must maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the
availability of sufficient funds for 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 March 31, 2004,
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 24.4%.
The Bank also maintained an uncommitted credit facility with the FHLB-Seattle
that provided for immediately available advances up to an aggregate amount of
$89.1 million, under which $55.0 million was outstanding at March 31, 2004.
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 investments. 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, commercial mortgage loans, and construction and land
development loans. At March 31, 2004, the Bank had loan commitments totaling
$35.1 million and undisbursed loans in process totaling $28.1 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 March 31, 2004 totaled $96.4 million. Historically,
the Bank has been able to retain a significant amount of its certificates of
deposit as they mature.
Federally-insured state-chartered banks are required to maintain 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 March 31, 2004, the Bank was in compliance with all applicable
capital requirements. For additional details see "Regulatory Capital".

Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Section

(the "Act")) was carried out under the supervision and with the
participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial
Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management
within the 90-day period preceding the filing date of this quarterly
report. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial

as currently in effect are effective in ensuring that the information

submits under the Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the
Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed,

Company did not make any significant changes in, nor take any
corrective actions regarding, its internal controls or other factors
that could significantly affect these controls. A number of internal
control procedures were, however, modified during the quarter in

in August 2003. The Company also continued to implement suggestions
from its internal auditor and independent auditor on ways to strengthen
existing controls.
