December 31, 1997
(1) Landmark Financial Corp. and Subsidiary
Landmark Financial Corp. (the Company) was incorporated under the
laws of the state of Delaware for the purpose of becoming the
savings and loan holding company of Landmark Community Bank, a
Savings Bank (the Bank) in connection with the Bank's conversion
from a federally chartered mutual savings bank to a federally
chartered stock savings bank, pursuant to its Plan of Conversion.
On August 12, 1997, the Company commenced a Subscription and
Community Offering of its shares in connection with the
conversion of the Bank (the Offering). The Offering was
consummated and the Company acquired the Bank on November 13,
1997. The Company had no assets prior to the conversion and
acquisition on November 13, 1997.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for
the three months and nine months ended December 31, 1997 include
the accounts of the Company and the Bank. The accompanying
consolidated statements of financial condition as of March 31,
1997 and the statements of operations and cash flows for the
three months and nine months ended December 31, 1996,
respectively are of the Bank.
(2) Basis of Preparation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were
prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB. To the
extent that information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements
are contained in or consistent with the audited financial
statements incorporated by reference in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31, 1997, such
information and footnotes have not been duplicated herein. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal
recurring accruals which are necessary for the fair presentation
of the interim financial statements have been included. The
consolidated statement of operations for the three month period
ended December 31, 1997 and the nine month period ended December
31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may
be expected for the entire year. The March 31, 1997 balance sheet
has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that
date.

(3) Pro Forma Earnings Per Share
On November 13, 1997, 152,000 shares of the Company's stock were
issued, including 12,160 shares issued to the Employees Stock
Ownership Plan (ESOP). Pro forma income per share amounts for the
three month and nine month periods ended December 31, 1997 are
based upon 139,840 shares, exclusive of shares issued to the
ESOP, as though those shares were outstanding for the entire
period. The computation does not reflect the pro forma effects of
the investment income that would have been earned had the net
proceeds from conversion been received at the beginning of the
three and nine month periods.
(4) Stockholders' Equity and Stock Conversion
The Bank converted from a federally chartered mutual savings bank
to a federally chartered stock savings bank pursuant to its Plan
of Conversion which was approved by the Bank's members on
September 23, 1997. The conversion was effective on November 23,
1997 and resulted in the issuance of 152,000 shares of common
stock (par value $0.10) at $10.00 per share for a gross sales
price of $1,520,000. Cost related to conversion (primarily
underwriters' commissions, printing and professional fees)
aggregated $320,323 and were deducted to arrive at the net
proceeds of $1,078,077, net of the ESOP loan. The company
established an employee stock ownership trust which purchased
12,160 shares of common stock of the Company at the issuance
price of $10.00 per share with funds borrowed from the Bank.
(5) Employee Stock Ownership Plan
All employees meeting age and service requirements are eligible
to participate in an ESOP established on November 23, 1997.
Contributions made by the Bank to the ESOP are allocated to
participants by a formula based on compensation. Participant
benefits become 100% vested after five years. There was no ESOP
expense for the period ended December 31, 1997.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion compares the financial condition of
Landmark Financial Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Landmark Community Bank, a Savings Bank, (collectively the Bank)
at December 31, 1997 to the financial condition at March 31,
1997, its fiscal year-end, and the results of operations for the
three months and nine months ended December 31, 1997, with the
same periods in fiscal 1996. This discussion should be read in
conjunction with the interim financial statements and notes which
are included herein.
During August and September 1997, the Office of Thrift
Supervision (OTS) conducted its previously scheduled routine
safety and soundness on-sight examination of the Bank. During the
course of its examination OTS examiners raised a number of
concerns and noted certain deficiencies in the Bank's operations.
As a result of the examination the Bank has agreed with the OTS
not to originate any new consumer or commercial loans and to
limit one-to-four family loan origination's to no more than
$200,000 per month. Management has addressed the concerns of the
OTS and expects that full operational lending authority will be
restored in the quarter ending March 31, 1998.
General
Landmark Financial Corp. was organized as a Delaware corporation
in June 1997 to acquire all of the capital stock issued by
Landmark Community Bank, a Savings Bank upon its conversion from
the mutual to stock form of ownership. Landmark Community Bank, a
Savings Bank was founded in 1925 as a New York chartered savings
and loan association located in Canajoharie, New York. In 1997,
its members voted to convert to a federal charter. The business
of the holding company consists primarily of the business of the
Bank.
The Bank conducts its business through its main office in
Canajoharie, Montgomery County, New York. The Bank has been, and
intends to continue to be, a community -oriented financial
institution offering selected financial services to meet the
needs of the communities it serves. The Bank attracts deposits
from the general public and historically has used such deposits,
together with other funds, primarily to originate oneto-four
family residential mortgage loans, construction and land loans
for single-family residential properties, commercial loans and
consumer loans consisting primarily of loans secured by
automobiles. While the Bank's primary business has been that of a
traditional thrift institution, originating loans in its primary
market area for retention in its portfolio, the Bank also has
been an active participant in the origination of consumer loans
primarily for the purchase of automobiles
Landmark Financial Corp. and Subsidiary
December 31, 1997
The most significant factors influencing the operations of the
Bank and other financial institutions include general economic
conditions, competition in the local market place and the related
monetary and fiscal policies of agencies that regulate financial
institutions. More specifically, the cost of funds primarily
consisting of insured deposits is influenced by interest rates on
competing investments and general market rates of interest, while
lending activities are influenced by the demand for real estate
financing and other types of loans, which in turn is affected by
the interest rates at which such loans may be offered and other
factors affecting loan demand and funds availability.
The deposits of the Bank are presently insured by the Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), which together with the Bank
Insurance Fund ("BIF") are the two insurance funds administered
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). In the third
quarter of 1995, the FDIC lowered the premium schedule for BIF-
insured institutions in anticipation of the BIF achieving its
statutory reserve ratio. The reduced premium created a
significant disparity in deposit insurance expense causing a
competitive advantage for BIF members. Legislation enacted on
September 30, 1996 provided for a one-time special assessment of
.657% of the Bank's SAIF insured deposits at March 31,1995. The
purpose of the assessment was to bring the SAIF to its statutory
reserve ratio. Based upon the above formula, the Bank charged
$43,000 against earnings for the three months ended December 31,
1996. Although the special one-time assessment significantly
increased non-interest expense for the period, the anticipated
reduction in the premium schedule has reduced the Bank's federal
insurance premiums in the current fiscal year.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $5.70 million, or 50.4%, to $17.03 million
at December 31,1997 from $11.33 million at March 31, 1997. Part
of this increase was due to the sale of Landmark Financial Corp.
common stock, which generated net proceeds of $1,078,077 on
November 13,1997 after deducting an $121,600 loan by Landmark
Financial Corp. to the Bank. The loan was used to purchase common
stock for the ESOP. The remaining increase in assets is due to an
increase in out of market deposits of $4.4 million held by the
bank in the form of certificates of deposits.
Loans receivable, net increased by $4.29 million, or 45.7%, to
$13.69 million at December 31,1997 from $9.40 million at March
31,1997 primarily due to increases in consumer loans of $2.41
million, an increase in commercial loans of $461,000, and an
increase in one-to-four family portfolio loans of $1.46 million.
Interest-bearing deposits in other institutions increased by
$1.77 million, or 1,474.7%, to $1.89 million at December 31, 1997
from $120,000 at March 31, 1997 due to net proceeds from the sale
of common stock being temporarily invested in Federal Home Loan
Bank overnight deposits.
Landmark Financial Corp. and Subsidiary
December 31, 1997
Deposits increased $4.4 million, or 42.8%, to $14.6 million at
December 31, 1997 from $10.2 million at March 31, 1997. The
increase in deposits is primarily attributable to an increase in
out of market certificate of deposits of $4.4 million with
maturities of two to five years. These deposits were obtained by
participating in an on-line internet service through advertising
certificate of deposit rates nationwide.
Total equity increased $1,208,730, or 126.6%, to $2,163,636 at
December 31, 1997 from $954,906 at March 31, 1997, due to a sale
of 152,000 common shares at an initial offering price of $10 per
share less the establishment of the Company's $121,600 ESOP and
conversion-related costs of $320,323.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months and Nine
Months Ended December 31! 1997 and the Three Months and Nine
Months Ended December 31. 1996
Performance Summary. The Company's net income increased $65,955
to $7,975 for the three months ended December 31, 1997, compared
to a net loss of $57,980 for the three months ended December 31,
1996. The increase in earnings for the three months ended
December 31, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996 is
primarily due to the one-time special assessment of $43,000 paid
to the SAIF fund in the three months ended December 31, 1996. The
net loss decreased $31,085, or 98.1%, to $604 for the nine months
ended December 31, 1997, as compared to $31,689 for the same
period in fiscal year 1996. The increase in earnings for the nine
months ended December 31, 1997 as compared to the same period in
1996 is primarily due to the one-time special assessment of
$43,000 paid to the SAIF fund in the nine months ended December
31, 1996.
Net interest income. The Company's net interest income increased
$53,419, or 60.6%, to $141,610 for the three months ended
December 31, 1997, from $114,198 for the three months ended
December 31, 1996. The increase in net interest income reflects
an increase of $159,498 in interest income and a corresponding
increase of $106,079 in interest expense for the three months
ended December 31, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996.
For the nine months ended December 31, 1997, net interest income
increased $126,095, or 49.3%, from $255,564 for the same period
in fiscal 1996. The increase in net interest income reflects an
increase of $435,808 in interest income and a corresponding
increase of $309,713 in interest expense for the nine months
ended December 31, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996.
The increase in interest income reflects increased balances of
loans receivable, primarily consumer auto loans and one-to-four
family mortgages that were originated in the fourth quarter of
fiscal year ended March 31, 1997 and the first quarter of fiscal
year ended March 31, 1998. Interest expense increased primarily
due to the increase of out of market deposits of $4.4 million.
Provisionfor Loan Losses. During the three months ended December
31, 1997, the Bank charged 0 (zero) against earnings as a
provision for loan losses compared to a provision of 0 (zero)
charged against earnings for the three months ended December 31,
1996. For the nine months ended December 31, 1997, the Bank
charged $12,000 against earnings as a provision for loan losses
compared to 0 (zero) charged against earnings for
Landmark Financial Corp. and Subsidiary
December 31, 1997
the nine months ended December 31, 1996. The allowance for loan
losses at December 31, 1997 is .89% of loans receivable, net as
compared to 1.17% of loans receivable, net at
March 31, 1997. Total nonperforming loans at December 31, 1997
are $106,000, or .77% of loans receivable, net, as compared to
total nonperforming loans at March 31, 1997 of 47,000 or .50% of
loans receivable net.
Management regularly reviews the loan portfolio, including
problem loans, and changes in the relative makeup of the loan
portfolio to determine whether any loans require classification
or the establishment of additional reserves. Management will
continue to monitor its allowance for loan losses and make future
additions to the allowance as economic conditions dictate.
Although the Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at a
level which it considers to be adequate to provide for potential
losses, there can be no assurance that future losses will not
exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan
losses will not be required in future periods.
Noninterest Income. For the three months ended December 31, 1997,
Noninterest income increased $18,080 or 172.0%, to $28,591 from
$10,511 for the same period in 1996. For the nine months ended
December 31, 1997, noninterest income increased $33,816 or 142.1%
from $23,801 for the same period in 1996. The increase is
primarily due to gain realized in the sale of trading account
securities in the amount of $ 12,411 and commissions received by
the Bank for brokering mortgage applications underwritten at
other financial institutions of $9,325 and miscellaneous fee
income of approximately $7,600. Other income also includes a one-
time recapture of income previously charged off as interest
expense in a prior quarter during the fiscal nine months ended
December 31, 1997. The amount ofthis income recapture is $8,985.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense decreased $4,456 or
2.7%, to $162,226 for the three months ended December 31, 1997
from $166,682 for the same period in 1996. The decrease was
primarily due to the payment of the SAIF one-time assessment in
1996 of $43,000. During this same period compensation and related
benefits expense increased $34,752. Noninterest expense increased
$107,026 or 33.3%, to $428,080 from $321,054 for the same period
in 1996. Of this increase $92,505 was related to increased
expenses associated with compensation and related benefits for
the period in conjunction with the Bank's rapid growth.
Nonperforming Assets

Liquidity
The Bank's principal sources of funds are deposits, principal and
interest payments on loans, deposits in other insured
institutions and investment securities. While scheduled loan
repayments and maturing investments are relatively predictable,
deposit flows and early loan prepayments are more influenced by
interest rates, general economic conditions and competition.
Additional sources of funds may obtained from the FHLB of New
York by utilizing numerous available products to meet funding
needs.
The Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets
as defined by regulations. The required percentage is currently
5.0% of net withdrawable savings deposits and borrowings payable
on demand or in one year or less. The Bank has maintained its
liquidity ratio at levels exceeding the minimum requirement. The

liquidity ratio at December 31. 1997 and March 31. 1997 were
19.59% and 12.45%, respectively.
In light of the competition for deposits, the Bank may utilize
the funding source of the FHLB to meet demand in accordance with
the Bank's growth plans. The wholesale funding sources may allow
the Bank to obtain a lower cost of funding and create a more
efficient liability match to the respective assets being funded.
For the purpose of the cash flow statement, all short-term
investments with a maturity of three months or less at date of
purchase are considered cash equivalents. Cash and cash
equivalents for the periods ended December 31, 1997 and March 31,
1997 were $2,046,880 and $709,458, respectively. The increase was
primarily due to the fact that the majority of the proceeds from
the sale of common stock was invested at the FHLB.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $43,674 at
December 31, 1997 from ($56,721) at December 31, 1996.
