("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 and six months ended March 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 March 31, 1999, there were 502,550 ESOP shares that had not been allocated.

The dividend is to be paid May 21, 1999, to shareholders of record as of the close of business May 7, 1999. (5)COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE On January 29, 1999, the Company announced that it would repurchase up to 5% of its outstanding common shares, or 298,389 shares. On February 3, 1999, the Company announced the completion of the previously announced stock repurchase program, at an average price of $12.375 per share. On February 5, 1999, the Company announced that it would repurchase up to 5% of its outstanding common shares, or 283,470 shares. On February 19, 1999, the Company announced the completion of its previously announced stock repurchase program, at an average price of $12.431 per share. (6) 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 unearned 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 10 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 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. SFAS No. 128 is effective for the financial statements for the periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 128 requires restatement of all prior period EPS data presented. Subsequent to the Bank's conversion to stock ownership on January 12, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128 for all future periods. 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 and six months ended March 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 September 30, 1998 and March 31, 1999 Total Assets: Total assets decreased 0.7% from $265.7 million at September 30, 1998 to $264.0 million at March 31, 1999, primarily as a result of using $11.0 million to repurchase shares of the Company's stock, and is partially offset by an increase in loans receivable and loans held-for-sale, net, which were primarily funded by increased deposits. Cash and Due from Financial Institutions: Cash and due from financial institutions decreased by 62.1% from $21.8 million at September 30, 1998 to $8.2 million at March 31, 1999. This decrease is primarily a result of using $11.0 million in funds to repurchase shares of the Company's stock. Investments and Mortgage-backed Securities: Investments and mortgage-backed securities decreased by 3.2% from $35.4 million at September 30, 1998 to $34.3 million at March 31, 1999. This decrease is primarily due to scheduled amortization, prepayments, maturities and sales. Loans Receivable, and Loans Held-for-sale, net of allowance for loan losses: Loans receivable, including loans held-for-sale, net, increased by 6.3% from $199.2 million at September 30, 1998 to $211.7 million at March 31, 1999. This increase is primarily a result of an increase in one-to-four family mortgage loans (including loans held for sale), construction loans, and commercial business loans held in the Bank's portfolio. 11 Premises and Fixed Assets: Premises and fixed assets increased by 21.2% from $5.3 million at September 30, 1998 to $6.5 million at March 31, 1999. This increase is primarily a result of the Bank acquiring the Yelm branch building (which opened March 1st) and two other properties for future branch locations. Real Estate Owned, net: Real estate owned, net, decreased from $1.7 million at September 30, 1998 to $1.2 million at March 31, 1999. This decrease is primarily attributable to a $539,000 decrease in the real estate owned balance of the condominium project that the Bank accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure on in November 1997. For additional information see "Non Performing Assets" section. Deposits: Deposits increased by 3.2% from $170.8 million at September 30, 1998 to $176.4 million at March 31, 1999. This increase is primarily attributable to growth of $4.7 million in the Bank's certificate of deposit accounts and smaller increases in non-interest bearing accounts and money market accounts. Shareholders' Equity: Total shareholders' equity decreased 11.0% from $81.8 million at September 30, 1998 to $72.8 million at March 31, 1999, primarily as a result of using $11.0 million to repurchase 895,953 shares of the Company's stock, and is partially offset by net income of $2.7 million (less dividends paid of $712,000.) 12 Non Performing Assets - --------------------- The following table sets forth information with respect to the Company's nonperforming assets at March 31, 1999 and September 30, 1998.

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 is in progress. As of March 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. Real Estate Owned: Condominiums, Southern King County, Washington. - ------------------------------------------------------------------- On November 7, 1997 the Bank accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure on two delinquent loans for the construction and sale of a 61-unit condominium complex. They were classified by the Bank as "Real Estate Owned" of $213,000 at March 31, 1999. The Bank has been actively marketing the project and, as of May 3, 1999, 29 of the 30 units had sold and the remaining Real Estate Owned balance was $109,000. Although no assurances can be give the Bank does not expect to incur any material losses on the disposition of these assets based on the prices at which the units are selling. 14 Loans Receivable - ---------------- The following table sets forth the composition of the Company's loan portfolio by type of loan. At March 31, At September 30, 1999 1998 Amount Percent Amount Percent ------------------ --------------------- (Dollars In thousands) Mortgage Loans: One-to-four family (1) $ 108,451 43.81% $ 100,921 43.48% Multi family 13,365 5.40 12,432 5.36 Commercial 34,000 13.73 32,906 14.18 Construction and land development 68,422 27.64 64,172 27.65 Land 8,140 3.29 7,749 3.34 --------- ------ --------- ------ Total mortgage loans 232,378 93.87 218,180 94.01 Consumer Loans: Home equity and second mortgage 8,037 3.25 8,740 3.77 Other 4,139 1.67 4,066 1.74 --------- ------ --------- ------ 12,176 4.92 12,806 5.51 Commercial business loans 2,996 1.21 1,105 0.48 --------- ------ --------- ------ Total loans 247,550 100.00% 232,091 100.00% ------ ------ Less: Undisbursed portion of loans in process (31,564) (28,886) Unearned income (2,440) (2,256) Allowance for loan losses (1,792) (1,728) Market value adjustment of loans -- held-for-sale (36) -- --------- --------- Total loans receivable, net $ 211,718 $ 199,221 --------- --------- - ----------------- (1) Includes loans held-for-sale. 15 Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 and 1999 Net Income: Net income increased from $1,414,000 ($0.23 per basic share) for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $1,416,000 ($0.28 per basic share) for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased 15.4% from $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $3.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Total interest income increased 8.9% from $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increase is primarily a result of a $783,000 increase in interest from loans receivable and is partially offset by a $315,000 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, and the recognition of $313,000 of back interest and fee income on a large non-performing loan that paid off in March. 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 decreased 1.7% from $2,019,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $1,985,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, primarily as a result of a decrease in the weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits from 4.53% for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to 4.34% for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Provision for Loan Losses: The provision for loan losses decreased from $50,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $30,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. Management decreased the provision for loan losses because it deemed the general loan loss reserves of $1.8 million at March 31, 1999 (.84% of loans receivable, net and 42.8% 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 $4.8 million at September 30, 1998 to $4.2 million at March 31, 1999, primarily due to a large delinquent commercial loan being paid off. For additional information see "Non Performing Assets" section. Noninterest Income: Total noninterest income decreased 55.4% from $457,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $204,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, primarily due to a decrease in loan sales which resulted in a $142,000 decrease in servicing income on loans sold and a $93,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans. These decreases were partially offset by a $26,000 increase in service charges on deposits. Noninterest Expense: Total noninterest expense increased 18.0% from $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999, primarily due to increases in salary and benefit expense, and expenses associated with the Company's first annual meeting. Salary and benefit expenses increased by $85,000 primarily a result of adding additional employees. The number of full-time equivalent employees increased from 91 at March 31, 1998 to 101 at March 31, 1999 as a result of hiring three commercial loan officers, opening a new branch in Yelm, restructuring the loan department and the loan servicing department, and elevating several part-time positions to full-time positions. Costs associated with the Company's initial annual report and annual meeting increased noninterest expense by approximately $66,000. Smaller increases in expenses relating to premises and fixed assets, advertising, ATMs, organizational dues and office supplies accounted for the bulk of the remaining increases. 16 Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended March 31, 1998 and 1999 Net Income: Net income increased from $2.2 million ($0.36 per basic share) for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $2.7 million ($0.51 per basic share) for the six months ended March 31, 1999. Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased 28.0% from $5.7 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $7.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 1999. Total interest income increased 13.4% from $9.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $11.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 1999. The increase is primarily a result of a $1.2 million increase in interest from loans receivable. 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, and the recognition of $313,000 of back interest and fee income on a large non-performing loan that paid off in March. Total interest expense decreased 6.1% from $4.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $4.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. This decrease is primarily the result of a decrease in the average balance of interest bearing deposit accounts from $173.1 million for the six months ending March 31, 1998 to $164.5 million for the six months ending March 31, 1999 and a decrease in the weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits from 4.52% for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to 4.43% for the six months ended March 31, 1999. Provision for Loan Losses: The provision for loan losses decreased from $110,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $74,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1999. Management decreased the provision for loan losses because it deemed the general loan loss reserves of $1.8 million at March 31, 1999 (.84% of loans receivable, net and 42.8% 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 $4.8 million at September 30, 1998 to $4.2 million at March 31, 1999, primarily due to a large delinquent commercial loan being paid off. For additional information see "Non Performing Assets" section. Noninterest Income: Total noninterest income decreased 41.2% from $781,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $459,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1999, primarily due to a decrease in loan sales which resulted in a $188,000 decrease in servicing income on loans sold and a $126,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans. These decreases are partially offset by $25,000 increase in escrow fees and a $24,000 increase in service charges on deposits. Noninterest Expense: Total noninterest expense increased 17.1% from $3.0 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $3.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 1999. The largest portion of this increase is a result of increased salary and employee benefit expense, which increased from $1.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $2.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 1999. ESOP compensation expense increased by $105,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1999, and the remaining portion of the increased compensation expense is a result of adding additional employees and increases for current employees. The number of full-time equivalent employees increased from 91 at March 31, 1998 to 101 at March 31, 1999 as a result of hiring three commercial loan officers, opening a new branch in Yelm, restructuring the loan department and the loan servicing department, and elevating several part-time positions to full-time positions. Smaller increases in expenses relating to premises and fixed assets, advertising, ATMs, organizational dues, office supplies, and the Company's first annual meeting accounted for the bulk of the remaining increases. 17 Provision for Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes increased from $1.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998 to $1.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 1999 primarily as a result of higher income before income taxes. Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, proceeds from principal and interest payments on loans 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 March 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 25.6%. The Bank also maintained an uncommitted credit facility with the FHLB-Seattle that provided for immediately available advances up to an aggregate amount of $51.0 million, under which $13.6 million was outstanding at March 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 March 31, 1999, the Bank had loan commitments totaling $19.8 million and undisbursed loans in process totaling $31.6 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, 1999 totaled $72.9 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 March 31, 1999, the Bank was in compliance with all applicable capital requirements. For additional details see "Regulatory Capital". 18 Regulatory Capital - ------------------ The following table compares the Bank's regulatory capital at March 31, 1999 to its minimum regulatory capital requirements at that date (dollars in thousands): Percent of Adjusted Amount Total Assets (1) -------- ---------------- GAAP capital $ 56,294 22.07% Tier 1 (leverage) capital $ 56,163 22.05% Tier 1 (leverage) capital requirement 10,186 4.00 -------- ----- Excess 45,977 18.05% Tier 1 risk adjusted capital $ 56,163 31.53% Tier 1 risk adjusted capital requirement 7,125 4.00 -------- ----- Excess $ 49,038 27.53% Total risk based capital $ 57,955 32.54% Total risk based capital requirement 14,250 8.00 -------- ----- Excess $ 43,705 24.54% - ------------------- (1) For the Tier 1 (leverage) capital, percent of total average assets of $254.7 million.

As the century date change occurs, date-sensitive systems may recognize the year 2000 as 1900, or not at all. This inability to recognize or properly treat the year 2000 may cause systems to fail or process financial and operational information incorrectly. The Company has established a committee to address Year 2000 issues. The committee has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer systems and equipment to identify applications that could be affected by Year 2000 issues and has implemented a plan designed to ensure that all software used in connection with the Company's business will function correctly with dates past 1999. The Company has an in-house data processing department, which maintains the Company's main system on an IBM AS400. The Company has completed the extensive project of reprogramming all of its internal codes on this system to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company also completed testing of the system with regulatory suggested dates in November 1998. The test results have indicated that this system is compliant in all material respects. 20 The Company also uses software from third party vendors for applications such as accounts payable, fixed assets, loan processing, and wire transfers. The Company has received Year 2000 compliant software updates for all mission critical software. Timberland's Year 2000 committee has also assessed credit risk within the Bank's loan portfolio. The Bank realizes that commercial borrowers, like itself, must also address the Year 2000 issue. To help assess each individual commercial loan, Timberland sent out questionnaires to its commercial borrowers asking them if they were aware of the Year 2000 issues and if they were taking steps to address the issues. The committee then assigned each commercial loan a Year 2000 risk rating (low, moderate, or high) based on a variety of factors, which include: responses to the Y2K questionnaire, industry vulnerability, loan size, and collateral position. Although no assurances can be given, the committee does not believe credit risk to the Bank will be material, based on the assessment analysis. In addition, when underwriting a prospective commercial loan, the Bank considers what effect, if any, the Year 2000 issue may have on the business of the prospective borrower as well as the borrower's ability to meet its contractual obligations with the Bank in the event the Year 2000 issues affects the borrower's business. The Company's Year 2000 committee is currently developing contingency plans for other areas which may be affected by Year 2000 issues, such as the loss of electrical power for sustained periods and additional liquidity requirements. These plans are scheduled to be validated and tested by June 30, 1999. The Company has budgeted approximately $159,000 towards its Year 2000 compliance efforts. To date, the Company has expended approximately $119,000 towards Year 2000 compliance issues. The Company does not believe that the ultimate costs associated with its Year 2000 compliance efforts will be material to the Company. However, no assurances can be given that such costs will not be higher and have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The above discussion contains certain forward-looking statements. The discussion is based on the Company's current assessment and is subject to uncertainties that could cause the implementation schedule, the costs and the results contemplated by the plan to differ materially from the Company's expectation.
