Page 4 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements March 31, 2002 NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, the reader should refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of Crazy Woman Creek Bancorp Incorporated (the "Company") for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for an entire year or any other period. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Buffalo Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. NOTE 2: IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNT STANDARDS In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, Business Combinations and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141, which was adopted by the Company on July 1, 2001, requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141 also specifies criteria intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. SFAS 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142. However, goodwill recognized in connection with certain branch acquisitions will continue to be subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 72, Accounting for Certain Acquisitions of Banking or Thrift Institutions. SFAS 142, which was adopted by the Company October 1, 2001, also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 141 required, upon adoption of SFAS 142, that the Company evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in a prior purchase business combination, and to make any necessary reclassifications in order to conform with the new criteria in SFAS 141 for recognition apart from goodwill. Additionally, upon adoption of SFAS 142, the Company was required to reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations, and make any necessary amortization period adjustments by the end of the first interim period after adoption which was December 31, 2001. Upon adoption, the Company did not have any reclassifications to its recorded intangible assets or any changes in its estimated useful lives or residual values. In connection with the transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, SFAS 142 required the Company to perform an assessment of whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired as of the date of adoption. As of the date of adoption, the Company had unamortized goodwill in the amount of $178,000 which will continue to be amortized in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 72. There was no indication that goodwill was impaired at the date of adoption. The Company tests goodwill annually in the Page 5 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements March 31, 2002 fourth quarter in connection with its annual budgeting process. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $6,000 and $3,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Following is a summary of acquired intangible assets at March 31, 2002.

These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company's plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions, that are subject to changes based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Company's control). The following factors, among others, could cause the Company's financial performance to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economy in which the Company conducts operations; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the board of governors of the federal reserve system, inflation, interest rates, market and monetary fluctuations; the timely development of and acceptance of new products and services of the Company and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors' products and services; the willingness of users to substitute competitors' products and services for the Company's products and services; the success of the Company in gaining regulatory approval of its products and services, when required; the impact of changes in financial services' laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); technological changes; acquisitions; changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks resulting from these factors. The Company cautions that the listed factors are not exclusive. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the Company. GENERAL - ------- The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company of the Bank. The Company's assets are comprised of its investment in the Bank, a loan to the ESOP, a loan to the Bank, and shares held in mutual funds. The Bank operates as a traditional savings association, attracting deposit accounts from the general public and using those deposits, together with other funds, primarily to originate and invest in fixed-rate conventional loans secured by single-family residential real estate. The Bank also utilizes funds obtained from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle ("FHLB") to purchase investment securities and to originate loans. The Bank also originates commercial real estate loans, business loans, home equity loans, consumer loans and loans secured by savings accounts. The Bank invests in mortgage-backed securities (including Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits ("REMICs")), municipal bonds and short-term and medium-term U.S. Agency securities. The Bank's net income is dependent primarily on its net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on its interest-earning assets and interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is determined by (i) the difference between yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities (interest rate spread) and (ii) the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Bank's interest rate spread is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand and Page 8 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) March 31, 2002 deposit flows. To a lesser extent, the Bank's net income is also affected by the level of non-interest income, which primarily consists of service charges and other operating income. In addition, net income is affected by the level of non-interest (general and administrative) expenses. PURCHASE OF BRANCH On December 27, 2000, the Bank purchased the building, equipment, loans and acquired the deposit liabilities of the Gillette, Wyoming branch of Hulett National Bank for a purchase price of $675,000. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and accordingly, the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, include the results of operations of the acquired branch since the date of purchase. Cash received in the branch acquisition totaled $773,000. The purchase consisted of $95,000 of loans, $387,000 of premises and equipment, the assumption of $1.353 million in deposits and $212,000 of accrued interest and other liabilities. The premium paid over historical carrying values was $310,000, which has been allocated to goodwill and deposit premium. The branch is called "The Bank of Gillette, a branch of Buffalo Federal Savings Bank" ("Branch"). CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Companies may apply certain critical accounting policies requiring management to make subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to estimate the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company considers its only critical accounting policy to be the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged against earnings. The balance of allowance for loan losses is maintained at the amount management believes will be adequate to absorb known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio. The appropriate balance of allowance for loan losses is determined by applying estimated loss factors to the credit exposure from outstanding loans. Estimated loss factors are based on subjective measurements including management's assessment of the internal risk classifications, changes in the nature of the loan portfolio, industry concentrations and the impact of current local, regional and national economic factors on the quality of the loan portfolio. Changes in these estimates and assumptions are reasonably possible and may have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, results of operation or liquidity. FINANCIAL CONDITION - ------------------- ASSETS At March 31, 2002, assets totaled $70.911 million compared to total assets of $68.773 million at September 30, 2001. The increase was primarily a result of increases in net loans receivable and net premises and equipment, which more than offset the decrease in cash and cash equivalents and investment and mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $1.642 million during the period. The decrease was primarily the result of the increase in loans receivable and costs associated with branching activities offset by a decrease in investment and mortgage-backed securities and a corresponding increase in deposits. Securities available-for-sale decreased by $1.653 million during the six months ended March 31, 2002. Securities prepayments, calls and maturities of $6.833 million were received on investment securities Page 9 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) March 31, 2002 available-for-sale. The Bank purchased $5.431 million of investment securities available-for-sale, and the market value of the securities decreased $205,000 during the period. Amortization of premium discounts and dividends accounted for $46,000 of the decrease in securities. Loans receivable increased $5.369 million during the six months ended March 31, 2002. During this period, the Bank originated loans totaling $15.893 million, comprised of residential mortgage loans totaling $4.963 million, non-residential mortgage loans totaling $6.439 million, consumer loans totaling $2.605 million, and commercial loans totaling $1.886 million. During the same period, the Bank received scheduled principal payments and prepayments totaling $10.507 million on its loan portfolio. Bank property and equipment increased by $1.087 million during the period and was primarily the result of improvements to the land in Sheridan, Wyoming. Improvements to the land in Sheridan totaled $805,000 as of March 31, 2002. The Sheridan parcel of land consists of 1.48 acres. The total cost of construction of the branch is estimated to be $2.1 million and the branch opened on April 8, 2002. LIABILITIES Deposits increased by $3.738 million from $40.709 million at September 30, 2001 to $44.447 million at March 31, 2002. Deferred income taxes decreased by $30,000 during the six months ended March 31, 2002 and were mainly the result of the decrease in market value of available-for-sale securities offset by deferred income tax expense from FHLB stock dividends and amortization of intangibles. Accrued expenses and other liabilities decreased by $411,000 during the six months ended March 31, 2002 and were mainly the result of the decrease in accrued interest payable, outstanding corporate checks and accounts payable related to the construction project in Sheridan Wyoming. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Overall, stockholders' equity decreased $125,000 during the six months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease was primarily the result of decreased market value on available-for-sale securities. ASSET QUALITY - ------------- Non-performing assets totaled $381,000 at March 31, 2002, or 0.86% of gross loans. This compares to $119,000 at September 30, 2001 or 0.31% of gross loans. Non-performing loans at March 31, 2002 were comprised of four single-family mortgage loans, two commercial loans, and four consumer loans. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. - --------------------------------------------------------- Net Income. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was higher than net income reported for the same period in 2001. Specifically the increase is attributable to a $92,000 increase in net interest income a $7,000 increase in non-interest income, a $11,000 decrease in loss on disposal of Page 10 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) March 31, 2002 assets. These increases were offset by a $6,000 increase in compensation and benefits, a $16,000 increase in occupancy and equipment, a $7,000 increase in advertising, a $27,000 increase in professional fees associated with search for a Chief Executive Officer, a $25,000 increase in other expenses, and an increase of $6,000 in income tax expense. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributed to an increase in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities offset by a corresponding decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002. Interest Income. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, interest income totaled $1.054 million compared to $1.078 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. An increase in the volume of average interest-earning assets from $62.069 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to $67.285 million for the same period in 2002 contributed to a $132,000 increase in interest income. A decrease was experienced in the yield on average interest-earning assets from 6.95% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to 6.27% for the three months ended March 31, 2002, which contributed to a $156,000 decrease in interest income. Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $116,000 from $676,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to $560,000 for the same period in 2002. This was primarily a result of a decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities. Interest expense for deposits, including deposit premium amortization, decreased by $54,000 from $407,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to $353,000 for the same period in 2002. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased from 4.94% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to 3.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2002, which caused interest expense for deposits to decrease by $155,000. An increase in the volume of average interest-bearing deposits from $32.981 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, to $42.774 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, resulted in a $101,000 increase in interest expense for deposits. Interest expense for advances from the FHLB and other interest expense decreased by $62,000 from $269,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to $207,000 for the same period in 2002. The cost of average interest-bearing advances from the FHLB decreased from 6.33% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to 6.18% for the same period in 2002. This decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing advances caused a $5,000 decrease in interest expense. Average interest-bearing advances decreased from $17.011 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2001, to $13.400 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2002, and resulted in an $57,000 decrease in interest expense for advances. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $91,000 from $402,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to $493,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in the volume of average interest-bearing liabilities and the decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities were the major factors for the increase in net interest income. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities was not fully offset by a corresponding increase in average interest-earning assets as evidenced by the decrease of the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities from 124.16% in 2001 to 119.78% in 2002. The major factor was the decrease in the rate paid for interest-bearing liabilities and a smaller decrease in the rate earned for average interest-earning assets. Page 11 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) March 31, 2002 Net interest margin increased from 2.59% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to 2.94% for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in net interest margin was primarily caused by the disproportionate decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities compared to interest-earning assets. Provision for Loan Losses. No provision was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. There were $1,000 in loan charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2002 while recoveries totaled $4,000. In the three months ended March 31, 2001, there were $7,000 in loan charge-offs while recoveries totaled $22,000. Total Non-interest Income. Total non-interest income increased by $7,000 from $26,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to $33,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 primarily due to an increase in other operating income. Total Non-interest Expense. Total non-interest expense increased by $74,000 from $395,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 to $469,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase was attributable to increases in compensation, occupancy and equipment, advertising, data processing costs, professional fees, and other non-interest expenses primarily related to the expansion of operations. Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 was 22.41% and 21.21%, respectively. The effective tax rate is higher during 2002 than 2001 due to an increase in taxable income and a corresponding increase in tax exempt interest income and resulting in permanent tax differences arising from the dividends received deduction and tax exempt interest income. Comparison of Six Months Ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. - ------------------------------------------------------- Net Income. Net income for the six months ended March 31, 2002 was lower than net income reported for the same period in 2001 primarily due to expanding the branch operations. Specifically the reduction is attributable to a $103,000 increase in compensation and benefits resulted primarily from the hiring of two branch presidents and ten additional staff members and the costs associated with a severance payment to a former employee, a $37,000 increase in occupancy and equipment, a $9,000 increase in advertising, a $10,000 increase in data processing costs, a $25,000 increase in professional fees associated with search for a Chief Executive Officer, and a $54,000 increase in other expenses. These increases were partially offset by a $189,000 increase in net interest income, a $12,000 increase in non-interest income, a $11,000 decrease in loss on disposal of assets, and a reduction of $17,000 in income tax expense. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributed to an decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the six-month period ended March 31, 2002. Interest Income. For the six months ended March 31, 2002, interest income totaled $2.160 million compared to $2.171 million for the six months ended March 31, 2001. An increase in the volume of average interest-earning assets from $62.575 million for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to $67.188 million for the same period in 2002 caused interest income to increase by $226,000. A decrease was experienced in the yield on average interest-earning assets from 6.94% for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to 6.43% for the six months ended March 31, 2002, which contributed to a $237,000 decrease in interest income. Page 12 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) March 31, 2002 Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $200,000 from $1.368 million for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to $1.168 million for the same period in 2002. This was primarily a result of a decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities. Interest expense for deposits including deposit premium amortization decreased by $53,000 from $800,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to $747,000 for the same period in 2002. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased from 4.99% for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to 3.57% for the six months ended March 31, 2002, which caused interest expense for deposits to decrease by $263,000. An increase in the volume of average interest-bearing deposits from $32.052 million for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to $41.879 million for the six months ended March 31, 2002, resulted in a $210,000 increase in interest expense for deposits. Interest expense for advances from the FHLB and other interest expense decreased by $147,000 from $566,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to $419,000 for the same period in 2002. The cost of average interest-bearing advances from the FHLB decreased from 6.41% for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to 6.28% for the same period in 2002. This decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing advances caused a $12,000 decrease in interest expense. Average interest-bearing advances decreased from $17.731 million for the six month period ended March 31, 2001 to $13.400 million for the six month period ended March 31, 2002, resulting in a $135,000 decrease in interest expense for advances. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $189,000 from $803,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to $992,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease in net interest income was primarily caused by the increase in the cost and volume of interest-bearing liabilities. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities was not offset by a corresponding increase in average interest-earning assets as evidenced by the decrease of the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities from 125.70% in 2001 to 121.54% in 2002. The increase in the cost and volume of average interest-bearing liabilities were the major factors for the decrease in net interest income. Net interest margin increased from 2.57% for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to 2.95% for the six months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in net interest margin was primarily caused by the disproportionate decrease in cost of interest-bearing liabilities compared to interest-earning assets. Provision for Loan Losses. No provision was recorded during the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. There were $1,000 in loan charge-offs for the six months ended March 31, 2002 while recoveries totaled $7,000. In the six months ended March 31, 2001, there were $7,000 in loan charge-offs while recoveries totaled $32,000. Total Non-interest Income. Total non-interest income increased by $12,000 from $51,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to $63,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002 primarily due to an increase in other operating income and customer service charges. Total Non-interest Expense. Total non-interest expense increased by $230,000 from $675,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2001 to $905,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002. There were increases in compensation, occupancy and equipment, advertising, data processing costs, professional fees, amortization of goodwill and other non-interest expenses. Page 13 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) March 31, 2002 Provision for Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 was 23.34% and 29.05%, respectively. The effective tax rate is lower than the expected tax rate of 34% due to permanent tax differences arising from the dividends received deduction and tax exempt interest income. CAPITAL COMPLIANCE AND LIQUIDITY - -------------------------------- Capital Compliance. The following table presents the Bank's compliance with its regulatory capital requirements: At March 31, 2002 -------------------------- Percentage Amount of Assets --------- ----------- (Dollars in thousands) GAAP Capital................................................... $ 10,358 14.67% Tangible capital............................................... $ 10,189 14.47% Tangible capital requirement................................... 1,056 1.50% -------- ----- Excess......................................................... $ 9,133 12.97% ======== ===== Core capital................................................... $ 10,188 14.47% Core capital requirements...................................... 2,112 3.00% -------- ----- Excess......................................................... $ 8,076 11.47% ======== ===== Total risk-based capital (1)................................... $ 10,502 26.06% Total risk-based capital requirement (1)....................... 3,223 8.00% -------- ----- Excess (1)..................................................... $ 7,279 18.06% ======== ===== 1) Based on risk-weighted assets of $40,293,000 2) Based on the Bank's adjusted total assets of $70,407,000 Management believes that, under current regulations, the Bank will continue to meet its minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. Events beyond the control of the Bank, such as increased interest rates or a downturn in the economy in areas in which the Bank operates could adversely affect future earnings and, as a result, the ability of the Bank to meet its future minimum capital requirements. The Bank, before and after any proposed capital distributions must meet or exceed all capital requirements, is permitted to make capital distributions with prior notice to the Office of Thrift Supervision during any calendar year up to a total of current year net income and the preceding two years net income less dividends paid during the previous two years. The Bank currently exceeds all capital requirements and has been assessed as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory guidelines. Liquidity. The Bank is required under federal regulations to maintain sufficient liquidity to insure its safe an sound operation. The Bank's liquidity is a measure of its ability to fund loans, pay withdrawals of deposits, and other cash outflows in an efficient, cost effective manner. The Bank's primary source of funds are deposits and scheduled amortization and prepayment of loans. During the past several years, the Bank has used such funds primarily to fund maturing time deposits, pay savings withdrawals, fund Page 14 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) March 31, 2002 lending commitments, purchase new investments, and increase liquidity. The Bank funds its operations internally but supplements with borrowed funds from the FHLB. As of March 31, 2002 such borrowed funds totaled $13.400 million. Loan payments and maturing investments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The amount of certificate accounts and FHLB advances, which are scheduled to mature during the twelve months ending March 31, 2003 is approximately $20.493 million and $700,000, respectively. To the extent that these deposits do not remain at the Bank upon maturity, the Bank believes that it can replace these funds with deposits, excess liquidity, FHLB advances or outside borrowings. It has been the Bank's experience that a substantial portion of such maturing deposits remain at the Bank. No assurances, however, can be made that deposits can be maintained in the future without further increasing the cost of funds if interest rates continue to increase. At March 31, 2002, the Bank had loan commitments outstanding of $5.019 million. Funds required to fill these commitments are derived primarily from current excess liquidity, deposit inflows or loan and investment and mortgage-backed security repayments and if necessary through FHLB advances. The Company's primary source of liquidity on a stand alone basis is dividends received from the Bank. As indicated above under "Capital Compliance", dividends paid by the Bank are subject to regulatory restrictions.
