Page 4 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements December 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, 2002. 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 months ended December 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: RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR PERIOD EARNINGS In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 147 Acquisition of Certain Financial Institutions - an amendment of SFAS Nos. 72 and 144 and FASB Interpretations No. 9. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 147, the acquisition of all or part of a financial institution that meets the definition of a business combination will be accounted for by the purchase method in accordance with SFAS No. 141 Business Combinations. 147 provides that long-term customer relationships intangible assets, except for servicing assets, recognized in the acquisition of a financial institution, be evaluated for impairment under the provision of SFAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Per guidance issued in SFAS No. 147, the Company has evaluated the goodwill recognized in connection with its branch acquisition and determined that it meets the criteria of SFAS No. 147, and therefore the unidentifiable intangible asset has been reclassified to goodwill and is subject to SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The reclassification was retroactively applied to October 1, 2001, which resulted in the restatement of previously filed financial statements. The impact for the three months ended December 31, 2001 was to increase net earnings by $2,000. There was no impact on basic or diluted earnings per share from previously reported numbers. NOTE 3: IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNT STANDARDS In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, clarifying the accounting treatment and financial statement disclosure of certain guarantees issued and outstanding. Interpretation No. 45 clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of certain guarantees, a liability for the fair value undertaken in issuing the guarantee. In addition, guarantors must disclose the approximate term and nature of the guarantee, the maximum potential amount of future payments, current carrying amount of the liability and the nature of recourse provisions and collateral. The initial recognition and measurement provision of Interpretation No. 45 are effective for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. Management does not expect the adoption of the initial recognition and measurement provision of Interpretation No. 45 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statement, results of operations or liquidity. Page 5 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements December 31, 2002 In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, addressing consolidation by business enterprises of certain variable interest entities. Under the provision of Interpretation No. 46, an enterprise must consolidate a variable interest entity if that enterprise will absorb a majority of the entity's expected losses or receive a majority of the entity's residual returns, or both, regardless of the enterprise's direct or indirect ability to make decisions about the entity's activities through voting or similar rights. An enterprise that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the primary beneficiary of that entity. Interpretation No. 46 requires the primary beneficiary to disclose the nature, purpose, size and activities of the variable interest entity; the carrying amount and classification of consolidated assets that are collateral for the variable interest entity's obligations; and, creditor's recourse to the general credit of the primary beneficiary. Additional disclosures are required for enterprises that hold significant interests in a variable interest entity but are not the primary beneficiaries. Interpretation No. 46 applies immediately to interests in variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003 and to the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003 for interests in variable interest entities acquired before February 1, 2003. Interpretation No. 46 may be applied prospectively or retroactively with a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded as of the beginning of the first year applied. Management does not expect the adoption of the initial recognition and measurement provision of Interpretation No. 46 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity. NOTE 4: EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period less unvested management stock bonus plan (MSBP) and unallocated and not yet committed to be released Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) shares. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares used to compute basic EPS plus the incremental amount of potential common stock determined by the treasury stock method. For the Three Months ended December 31, 2002 Net Income Average Shares Per Share Amount ---------- -------------- --------------- Basic EPS Net income available to common stockholders $ 155,000 800,558 $ 0.19 Effect of Dilutive Securities ====== Incremental shares under stock option plan -- 7,052 Incremental shares related to MSBP -- 354 --------- ------------- Diluted EPS Income available to common stockholders plus assumed conversions $ 155,000 807,964 $ 0.19 ========= ============= ====== For the Three Months ended December 31, 2001 Net Income Average Shares Per Share Amount ---------- --------------- ---------------- Basic EPS Net income available to common stockholders $ 71,000 791,201 $ 0.09 Effect of Dilutive Securities ====== Incremental shares under stock option plan -- 875 Incremental shares related to MSBP -- 129 ---------- ------------- Diluted EPS Income available to common stockholders plus assumed conversions $ 71,000 792,205 $ 0.09 ======== ============= ====== Page 6 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements December 31, 2002 NOTE 5: STOCK BASED COMPENSATION In October 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148 , Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, providing alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to include prominent disclosures in annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 on December 31, 2002. Based on the terms of options granted and using the intrinsic value method, no compensation cost has been recognized for any stock option grants in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the estimated fair value at the grant date for its stock options, the Company's net income and net income per share for the three months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 would have been as follows: 2002 2001 ---- ---- Net income, as reported $ 155 71 Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects (2) (1) === === Pro forma 153 70 === === Basic earnings per share: As reported $ .19 .09 Pro forma .19 .09 === === Diluted earnings per share: As reported $ .19 .09 Pro forma .19 .09 === === The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during 2001 for this pro forma disclosure was $2.22, determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield of 4%, risk-free interest rates of 2.75%, volatility factor of 21%, and expected life of 7 years. There were no awards in 2002. Page 7 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations December 31, 2002 FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS - -------------------------- The Company may from time to time make written or oral "forward-looking statements", including statements contained in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB and the exhibits thereto), in its reports to stockholders and in other communications by the Company, which are made in good faith by the Company pursuant to the "safe harbor" provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. 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. COMPANY REGULATION - ------------------ Recent Legislation to Curtail Corporate Accounting Irregularities. On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act"). The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") promulgated certain regulations pursuant to the Act which were effective August 29, 2002, and will continue to propose additional implementing or clarifying regulations as necessary in furtherance of the Act. The passage of the Act and the regulations implemented by the SEC subject publicly-traded companies to additional and more cumbersome reporting regulations and disclosure. Compliance with the Act and corresponding regulations may increase the Company's expenses. 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 attracts deposits from the general public and uses such deposits, together with other funds, primarily to originate commercial mortgages, commercial loans, consumer loans and loans secured by first mortgages on one-to-four family residences in its market areas. The Bank occasionally utilizes funds obtained from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle ("FHLB") to fund the loan Page 8 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) December 31, 2002 originations. 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 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. 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. At December 31, 2002 loan loss reserve was $367,000 as compared to $337,000 at September 30, 2002 FINANCIAL CONDITION - ------------------- ASSETS At December 31, 2002, assets totaled $75.441 million compared to total assets of $75.521 million at September 30, 2002. The slight decrease was primarily a result of increases in net loans receivable and cash and cash equivalents, which did not offset the decline in investment and mortgage-backed securities available-for-sale from prepayments and scheduled payments. Securities available-for-sale decreased by $2.823 million during the three months ended December 31, 2002. Securities prepayments, calls and maturities of $2.828 million were received on investment securities available-for-sale. The market value of the securities increased $28,000 during the period. Amortization of premium discounts and dividends accounted for $23,000 of the decrease in securities. Loans receivable increased $1.931 million during the three months ended December 31, 2002. During this period, the Bank originated loans totaling $8.157 million, comprised of residential mortgage loans totaling $3.050 million, non-residential mortgage loans totaling $3.186 million, consumer loans totaling Page 9 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) December 31, 2002 $0.520 million, and commercial loans totaling $1.401 million. During the same period, the Bank received scheduled principal payments and prepayments totaling $6.215 million on its loan portfolio. LIABILITIES Deposits increased by $95,000 from $46.783 million at September 30, 2002 to $46.878 million at December 31, 2002. The increases were attributable to slight increases in money market, checking, savings, and a slight decline in certificate accounts. Accrued expenses and other liabilities decreased by $248,000 during the three months ended December 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 during 2001. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Overall, stockholders' equity increased $102,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2002. The increase was primarily the result of current earnings less dividends paid, and the increased market value on available-for-sale securities. ASSET QUALITY - ------------- Non-performing assets totaled $84,000 at December 31, 2002, or 0.11% of total assets. This compares to $96,000 at September 30, 2002 or 0.13% of total assets. Non-performing assets at December 31, 2002 consisted of other repossessed assets related to one commercial loan. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- Comparison of Three Months Ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. - ------------------------------------------------------------ Net Income. Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2002 was $84,000 - ---------- higher than net income reported for the same period in 2001. The increase is attributable to a $136,000 increase in net interest income and a $10,000 decrease in non-interest expense partially offset by a $20,000 provision for loan losses and an increase of $42,000 for income tax expense. Net interest income increased $136,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001 and was primarily attributable to a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The decrease in non-interest expense is primarily attributable to a $38,000 decrease in compensation and benefits partially offset by a $23,000 increase in occupancy and equipment. There were no other material changes in non-interest expenses. Interest Income. Total interest income increased by $20,000 for the three months - --------------- ended December 31, 2002. Interest income totaled $1.126 million for the three months ended December 31, 2002 as compared to $1.106 million for the three months ended December 31, 2001. An increase in the volume of average interest-earning assets from $67.091 million for the three months ended December 31, 2001 to $71.388 million for the same period in 2002 contributed to a $179,000 increase in interest income. A decrease was experienced in the yield on average interest-earning assets from 6.59% for the three months ended December 31, 2001 to 6.31% for the three months ended December 31, 2002, which contributed to a $159,000 decrease in interest income. Page 10 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) December 31, 2002 Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $116,000 from $608,000 for - ---------------- the three months ended December 31, 2001 to $492,000 for the same period in 2002. This was primarily a result of a decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities as a result of lower market interest rates. Interest expense for deposits, including deposit premium amortization, decreased by $109,000 from $396,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2001 to $286,000 for the same period in 2002. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits decreased from 4.47% for the three months ended December 31, 2001 to 3.31% for the three months ended December 31, 2002, which caused interest expense for deposits to decrease by $150,000. An increase in the volume of average interest-bearing deposits from $40.985 million for the three months ended December 31, 2001, to $45.216 million for the three months ended December 31, 2002, resulted in a $41,000 increase in interest expense for deposits. Interest expense for advances from the FHLB and other interest expense decreased by $7,000 from $213,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2001 to $206,000 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 December 31, 2001 to 5.80% for the same period in 2002 which resulted in a $20,000 decrease in interest expense. Average interest-bearing advances increased from $13.400 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2001, to $14.200 million for the same period 2002, and resulted in a $13,000 decrease in interest expense for advances. Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $136,000 from $498,000 for - ------------------- the three months ended December 31, 2001 to $634,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2002. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to the decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities which more than offset the increase in the volume of average interest-bearing liabilities. 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 123.36% in 2001 to 120.15% in 2002. The primary 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 as evidenced by the increase in the interest rate spread. Net interest margin increased from 2.97% for the three months ended December 31, 2001 to 3.55% for the three months ended December 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. A $20,000 and $0 provision was recorded during the - ------------------------- three months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. There were no loan charge-offs for the three months ended December 31, 2002 while recoveries totaled $10,000. In the three months ended December 31, 2001, there were no loan charge-offs while recoveries totaled $3,000. Total Non-interest Income. Total non-interest income did not change from $30,000 - ------------------------- for the three months ended December 31, 2001 and 2002. Total Non-interest Expense. Total non-interest expense decreased by $10,000 from - -------------------------- $433,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2001 to $423,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2002. The decrease was attributable to decreases in compensation offset by a increase in occupancy and equipment. There were no other material differences in non-interest expense.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended - ---------------------------- December 31, 2002 and 2001 was 29.86% and 25.27%, respectively. The effective tax rate was lower during 2001 than 2002 due to a decrease in taxable income and the relationship of non-taxable income to total income. CAPITAL COMPLIANCE AND LIQUIDITY - -------------------------------- Capital Compliance. The following table presents the Bank's compliance with its - ------------------ regulatory capital requirements: At December 31, 2002 ---------------------------- Percentage Amount of Assets -------- ---------- (Dollars in thousands) GAAP Capital.............................. $11,325 15.06% Tangible capital.......................... $10,753 14.30% Tangible capital requirement.............. 1,128 1.50% ------- ----- Excess.................................... $ 9,625 12.80% ======= ===== Core capital.............................. $10,887 14.48% Core capital requirements................. 2,256 3.00% ------- ----- Excess.................................... $ 8,631 11.48% ======= ===== Total risk-based capital (1).............. $11,254 22.68% Total risk-based capital requirement (1).. 3,970 8.00% ------- ----- Excess (1)................................ $ 7,284 14.68% ======= ===== 1) Based on risk-weighted assets of $49,625 2) Based on the Bank's adjusted total assets of $75,199 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 and 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 and 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 to fund maturing time deposits, pay savings withdrawals, fund lending commitments, purchase new investments, and increase liquidity. The Bank funds its operations internally but supplements with borrowed funds from the FHLB. As of December 31, 2002 such Page 12 CRAZY WOMAN CREEK BANCORP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued) December 31, 2002 borrowed funds totaled $14.200 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 December 31, 2003 is approximately $21.130 million and $2.500 million, 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. The Bank has $4.9 million of excess borrowing capacity at FHLB as of December 31, 2002. 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 increase. At December 31, 2002, the Bank had loan commitments outstanding of $5.102 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.
