AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 1999, include the accounts of FSF Financial Corp. ("the Corporation") and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Homeowners Mortgage Corporation ("Homeowners"), Insurance Planners of Hutchinson, Inc. ("Insurance Planners"), First Federal fsb (the "Bank") and Firstate Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank. The Corporation's business is conducted principally through the Bank. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other period. For further information, refer to consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1998. NOTE 3 - EARNINGS PER SHARE The earnings per share amounts were computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. In accordance with the Statement of Position No. 93-6, Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, shares owned by the Corporation's Employee Stock Ownership Plan that have not been committed to be released are not considered to be outstanding for the purpose of computing earnings per share. For the three month period ended June 30, 1999, the weighted average number of shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share computation were 2,666,100 and 2,766,468, respectively. For the three month period ended June 30, 1998, the weighted average number of shares outstanding were 2,667,864 and 2,876,708, respectively. For the nine month period ended June 30, 1999, the weighted average number of shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share computation were 2,684,532 and 2,799,157, respectively. For the nine month period ended June 30, 1998, the weighted number of shares outstanding were 2,671,185 and 2,914,704, respectively. NOTE 4 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Effective October 1, 1998, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. The statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The statement requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income to be disclosed in the financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events from non-owner sources. Comprehensive income is the total of net income and other comprehensive income, which for the Corporation is comprised entirely of unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale. NOTE 5 - BUSINESS COMBINATION On November 17, 1998, the Corporation acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Homeowners, an originator and seller of residential mortgage loans. The business combination was accounted for by the purchase method and the financial statements reflect the operating results of Homeowners for the seven and a half months ended June 30, 1999. The Corporation issued 77,839 shares of common stock held as treasury shares and $1.25 million in cash to complete the transaction. In addition, options for 50,000 common stock shares, at an exercise price of $15.00, were also issued. The acquisition price of $2.5 million resulted in goodwill of approximately $2.3 million, which will be amortized using the straight line method over twenty-five years. 5 The following unaudited pro forma supplemental information is presented based on historical financial statements of the Corporation and Homeowners. The unaudited pro forma supplemental information for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, were prepared as if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of the respective periods.

It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS No. 137 issued on July 7, 1999, deferred Statement 133's effective date until the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2000. On the date of adoption, the Corporation may transfer any held to maturity security into the available for sale category and then be able to designate the transferred security as a hedge item. Any unrealized holding gain or loss on transferred securities will be reported in net income or accumulated other comprehensive income. Management has not determined its strategy for the adoption of Statement No. 133 or its effect on the financial statements. If the Corporation elects to apply hedge accounting, it is required to establish, at the inception of the hedge, the method it will use for assessing the effectiveness of the hedging activities and the measurement approach for determining the ineffective aspect of the hedge. SFAS No. 134, "Accounting for Mortgage-Backed Securities Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise" - issued October 1998, revises the accounting and reporting standard for certain activities of mortgage banking enterprises and other enterprises that conduct operations that are substantially similar to the primary operations of a mortgage banking enterprise. It requires that after the securitization of a mortgage loan held for sale, an entity engaged in mortgage banking activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed security as a trading security. It also requires that after the securitization of mortgage loans held, an entity engaged in mortgage banking activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed securities or other retained interests based on its ability and intent to sell or hold those investments. This statement was effective for the fiscal quarter beginning January 1, 1999 and its adoption did not have an effect on the Corporations financial positions or results of operations. 6 FSF FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --------------------------------------------- GENERAL The Corporation's total assets at June 30, 1999, and September 30, 1998 totaled $422.6 million and $416.2 million, respectively. The increase of $6.4 million was primarily a result of an increase in interest bearing cash equivalents, other assets and a decrease in loans receivable. Cash and cash equivalents increased from $22.6 million at September 30, 1998, to $37.8 million at June 30, 1999, or an increase of $15.2 million. The Corporation utilizes excess liquidity to fund the purchase of treasury shares and loan originations. The increase in liquidity was primarily a result of prepayments on mortgages and the sale of mortgage loans. Securities available for sale increased $7.1 million between June 30, 1999, and September 30, 1998, as a result of purchases of such securities. Securities held to maturity decreased from $60.8 million at September 30, 1998, to $47.8 million at June 30, 1999. The proceeds were used to help fund the purchase of treasury shares and pay dividends. This decrease was primarily due to $3.0 million of securities maturing during the period and $10.0 million in principal payments from mortgage-backed and related securities Loans held for sale increased $4.2 million to $6.9 million at June 30, 1999 from $2.7 million at September 30, 1998. The increase is primarily due to Homeowners pipeline of loans that are funded, but payments from the sales have not been received. As of June 30, 1999, the Bank and Homeowners had forward commitments to sell all of their loans held for sale in the secondary market. Payments usually occur within fourteen days of funding. Loans receivable decreased $15.3 million or 5.5% to $265.2 million at June 30, 1999, from $280.6 million at September 30, 1998. Even though residential mortgage origination's increased by $91.4 million or 155.1%, the sale of residential mortgages and the prepayments of loans resulted in a decrease in one-to-four family residential mortgages of $27.3 million. Agricultural and commercial business loans increased by $9.3 and $2.1 million, respectively. To supplement origination's, the Bank purchased $22.2 million of commercial business loans and $3.4 million of construction loans. The commercial loans purchased meet the risk profile established by the Bank, generally have interest rates that are based on the "Prime" rate as published in the Wall Street Journal, and provide the Bank with the opportunity to continue to diversify the composition of its loan portfolio and shorten the length of maturity of the portfolio. The following table sets forth information on loans originated and purchased for the periods indicated: Three Months Nine Months Ended Ended June 30, June 30, ------------------------ -------------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 ------------------------ -------------------------- Loans Originated: (In Thousands) Residential mortgages $ 60,242 $ 21,206 $ 150,342 $ 58,908 Land and commercial real estate 408 1,797 2,782 4,412 Agricultural 7,941 8,773 23,450 21,399 Commercial Business 2,794 5,976 9,463 9,230 Consumer 7,909 7,343 19,893 20,243 ------------------------ -------------------------- Total Loans Originated 79,294 45,095 205,930 114,192 ------------------------ -------------------------- Residential mortgage loans - - - 159 Construction - - 3,400 - Commercial business 16,355 2,923 22,205 7,527 ------------------------ -------------------------- Total loans purchased 16,355 2,923 25,605 7,686 ------------------------ -------------------------- Total New Loans $ 95,649 $ 48,018 $ 231,535 $ 121,878 ======================== ========================== 7 The following table sets forth the composition of the Bank's loan portfolio in dollars and in percentages of total loans at the dates indicated: June 30, September 30, 1999 1998 ------------------------------------------------- Amount % Amount % ------------------------------------------------- Residential real estate: (Dollars in Thousands) One-to-four family (1) $ 130,033 43.9 $ 157,340 52.2 Residential construction 31,642 10.7 21,960 7.3 Multi-family 4,908 1.7 2,975 1.0 ------------------------------------------------- 166,583 56.2 182,275 60.4 Agricultural loans 32,241 10.9 22,959 7.6 Land and commercial real estate 30,150 10.2 29,731 9.9 Commercial business 27,899 9.4 25,763 8.5 ------------------------------------------------- 256,873 86.7 260,728 86.4 Consumer: Home equity and second mortgages 22,896 7.7 23,606 7.8 Automobile loans 7,645 2.6 9,670 3.2 Other 8,949 3.0 7,605 2.5 ------------------------------------------------- Total loans 296,363 100.0 301,609 100.0 =========== ========== Less: Loans in process (22,280) (16,658) Deferred fees (582) (641) Allowance for loan losses (1,285) (1,035) -------------- -------------- Total loans, net $ 272,216 $ 283,275 ============== ============== - ------------------------------------------- (1) Includes loans held for sale in the amount of $6.9 million and $2.7 million as of June 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998, respectively Real estate owned at June 30, 1999, totaled $125,000, which consisted of two single family residential properties. No loss is expected in the disposition of these properties. Other assets increased $7.5 million to $10.3 million at June 30, 1999 from $2.8 million at September 30, 1998. This increase was primarily due to goodwill added upon the purchase of Homeowners and the purchase of single premium life insurance policies. The life insurance policies were purchased to assist in retaining key management personnel by providing a death benefit in excess of the companies standard benefit of one times the employee's annual salary. Deposits after interest credited increased from $226.5 million at September 30, 1998, to $235.0 million at June 30, 1999, an increase of $8.5 million or 3.8%. Overall cost of funds on deposits decreased during the period 28 basis points as the Bank attempted to maintain deposit rates consistent with marketplace competitors. Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowing decreased $3.2 million from $144.2 million at September 30, 1998, to $141.0 million at June 30, 1999, due to repayments. The Corporation, completed the repurchase of 169,154 shares of common stock and when netted with the exercise of 35,188 of stock option shares and the 77,839 shares used to purchase Homeowners, increased the number of treasury shares to 1,659,790 at June 30, 1999. Treasury shares are to be used for general corporate purposes, including the issuance of shares in connection with the exercise of stock options. Total stockholders' equity decreased $3,000 since September 30, 1998. Book value per share increased from $16.22 at September 30, 1998, to $16.28 at June 30, 1999. 8 Loans are reviewed on a regular basis and are placed on a non-accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the collection of additional interest is doubtful. Loans are placed on a non-accrual status when either principal or interest is 90 days or more past due. Interest accrued and unpaid at the time a loan is placed on non-accrual status is charged against interest income. Subsequent payments are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending of the assessment of the ultimate collectibility of the loan. The following table sets forth information with respect to the Bank's non-performing assets for the periods indicated: June 30, September 30, ---------------------------------------- 1999 1998 ---------------------------------------- (In Thousands) Loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis: Mortgage loans: Residential construction loans $ - $ - Permanent loans secured by one-to-four-family units 253 240 Permanent loans secured by non-residential real estate - - Other - - Non-mortgage loans: Commercial and agricultural - - Consumer 38 69 -------------------------------- Total non-accrual loans 291 309 Foreclosed real estate 125 502 -------------------------------- Total non-performing assets $ 416 $ 811 ================================ Total non-performing loans to net loans 0.10% 0.11% ================================ Total non-performing loans to total assets 0.02% 0.07% ================================ Total non-performing assets to total assets 0.10% 0.19% ================================ During the nine months ended June 30, 1999, and 1998, approximately $25,000 and $50,000 respectively, would have been recorded on loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis if such loans had been current according to the original loan agreements for the entire period. These amounts were not included in the Bank's interest income for the respective periods. No interest income on loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis was included in income during any of these periods. During the periods indicated, the Bank held no foreign loans. 9 COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998 The following table sets forth information with respect to the Corporation's average balance sheet, interest and dividends earned or paid, and related yields and rates (dollars in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1999 1998 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest Interest Average Yields and Average Yields and Assets: Balance Interest Rates (1) Balance Interest Rates (1) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loans receivable (2) $ 272,463 $ 5,586 8.20 % $280,375 $5,961 8.50 % Mortgage-backed securities 44,298 576 5.20 54,417 743 5.46 Investment securities (3) 93,732 1,105 4.72 66,270 850 5.13 ------------------------- ------------------------- Total interest-earning assets 410,493 7,267 7.08 401,062 7,554 7.53 ----------- ---------------------- Other assets 18,096 11,214 -------------- ------------- Total assets $ 428,589 $412,276 ============== ============= Liabilities: Interest-bearing deposits $ 234,512 $ 2,540 4.33 % $218,619 $2,532 4.63 % Borrowings 144,796 1,986 5.49 147,200 2,125 5.77 ------------------------- ------------------------- Total interest-bearing liabilities 379,308 4,526 4.77 % 365,819 4,657 5.09 % ------------------------- ---------------------- Other liabilities 3,583 3,193 -------------- ------------- Total liabilities 382,891 369,012 Stockholders' equity 41,685 43,264 -------------- ------------- Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $ 428,589 $412,276 ============== ============= Net interest income $ 2,741 $2,897 Net Spread (4) 2.31 % 2.44 % Net Margin (5) 2.67 % 2.89 % Ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest- bearing liabilities 1.08X 1.10X (1) Annualized (2) Average balances include non-accrual loans and loans held for sale. (3) Includes interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions. (4) Net spread represents the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. (5) Net margin represents net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. Net Income. The Corporation recorded net income of $525,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to net income of $ 767,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 1998. This decrease in net income was $242,000 or 31.6%. Total Interest Income. Total interest income decreased by $287,000 or 3.8% to $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, from $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. This was primarily due to decreases in the average balances of loans receivable and mortgage-backed securities. The average yield on loans decreased to 8.20% for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, from 8.50% for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, due to a general decline in interest rates. During this same period, the average yield on mortgage- 10 backed securities decreased 26 basis points (100 basis points equals 1%). The average balance of investment securities increased to $93.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, from $ 66.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 as a result of loan prepayments and the proceeds from mortgage loan sales. The average yield decreased from 5.13% for the three months ended June 30, 1998, to 4.72% for the same period in 1999, as excess funds were placed in overnight or short-term investments which provide lower yields but greater flexibility in an increasing rate environment. Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased to $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, from $4.7 million for the same period in 1998. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased from $218.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998, to $234.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. This increase was comprised of interest credited and an increase in all categories of deposit accounts. The average cost of deposits decreased 30 basis points from 4.63% for the three month period ended June 30, 1998, to 4.33% for the same period in 1999, due to the mix of non-certificate account balances increasing more than certificate accounts. No assurance can be made that deposits can be maintained in the future without further increasing the cost of funds if interest rates increase. The average balance of borrowings decreased $2.4 million to $144.8. million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, from $147.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The cost of such borrowings decreased by 28 basis points to 5.49% for the three months ended June 30, 1999, from 5.77% for the same period in 1998. Borrowings decreased as the Bank utilized the increase in deposits to meet liquidity needs. Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased from $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998, to $2.7 million for the same period ended June 30, 1999. Average interest-earning assets increased $9.4 million, from $401.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998, to $410.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, while the average yield on interest-earning assets decreased from 7.53% for 1998 to 7.08% for 1999. Average interest bearing liabilities increased by $13.5 million to $379.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, from $365.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 5.09% for 1998 to 4.77% in 1999. Provision for Loan Losses. The Bank's provision for loan losses was $114,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, compared to $107,000 for the same period in 1998. Agricultural loans, land and commercial real estate loans and commercial business loans are generally considered to contain a higher risk profile than single family residential mortgages. In response to these changes, management has increased the provision for loan losses in order to maintain allowance for loan losses at levels management considers adequate. The Bank's allowance for loan losses was $1.3 million and $1.0 million at June 30, 1999, and June 30, 1998, respectively. At June 30, 1999, the Bank's allowance for loan losses constituted 308.9% of non-performing assets as compared to 123.9% of non-performing assets at June 30, 1998. The allowance for losses on loans is maintained at a level which is considered by management to be adequate to absorb probable loan losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible, based on an evaluation of the collectibility of loans, prior loan loss experience and market conditions. The evaluation takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. While the Bank maintains its allowance for losses at a level which it considers to be adequate, there can be no assurances that further additions will not be made to the loss allowances or that such losses will not exceed the estimated amounts. Non-interest Income. Total non-interest income increased $756,000 during the three month period ended June 30, 1999, to $1.4 million as compared to the same period in 1998. Gains on loans sold increased from $130,000 at June 30, 1998 to $624,000 at June 30, 1999. $138,000 of the increase was a result of fixed rate mortgages that were sold in the secondary market by the Bank because they did not fit the interest rate risk profile of the Bank, and $356,000 of the increase was due to the sale of loans made by Homeowners. Commission income increased from $ 144,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998, to $226,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. This increase was primarily due to insurance agency activities from the acquisition of Insurance Planners. Since the acquisition of Insurance Planners occurred on June 1, 1998, the income amounts for 1998 only include one month of insurance agency activity. Other service charges and fees increased from $120,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998, to $217,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, primarily due to an increase in underwriting fees as a result of the acquisition of Homeowners, which was not present in third quarter 1998. 11 Non-interest expense. Total non-interest expense increased $990,000 or 46.5% over the periods compared. Compensation and benefits increased from $1.4 million to $1.8 million or 33.5%, due to the acquisitions of Homeowners and Insurance Planners. Other factors contributing to the increase were the hiring of critical management and related support positions, including marketing, community banking and internal audit. Occupancy and equipment expense increased by $217,000 due primarily to the Homeowners and Insurance Planners acquisitions. Data processing expense increased $35,000 to $160,000 for the period ended June 30, 1999, due to processing expenses associated with the increased delivery of electronic services to customers, and to a lesser extent, a a result of costs associated with the Corporation's Year 2000 compliance program. Professional fees increased from $72,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1998 to $78,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Other expenses increased $271,000 from the quarter ended June 30, 1998 to $591,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 and was comprised of amortization of goodwill as a result of the acquisitions of Insurance Planners and Homeowners and an increase in marketing expenses. Income Tax Expense. Income taxes decreased by $155,000 or 30.2%, to $358,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 1999, from $513,000 for the same period in 1998, primarily due to the decrease of $397,000 in income before tax. 12 COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998 The following table sets forth information with respect to the Corporation's average balance sheet, interest and dividends earned or paid, and related yields and rates (dollars in thousands) Nine Months Ended June 30, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1999 1998 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest Interest Average Yields and Average Yields and Assets: Balance Interest Rates (1) Balance Interest Rates (1) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loans receivable (2) $ 274,959 $17,079 8.28 % $274,679 $17,509 8.50 Mortgage-backed securities 47,420 1,706 4.80 54,926 2,291 5.56 Investment securities (3) 90,124 3,227 4.77 65,155 2,636 5.39 ------------------------- ------------------------- Total interest-earning assets 412,503 22,012 7.11 394,760 22,436 7.58 ------------------------- ---------------------- Other assets 14,907 10,882 -------------- ------------- Total assets $ 427,410 $405,642 ============== ============= Liabilities: Interest-bearing deposits $ 233,103 $ 7,748 4.43 % $213,617 $7,461 4.66 Borrowings 145,985 6,004 5.48 145,274 6,335 5.81 ------------------------- ------------------------- Total interest-bearing liabilities 379,088 13,752 4.84 % 358,891 13,796 5.13 ----------- ---------------------- Other liabilities 3,228 3,040 -------------- ------------- Total liabilities 382,316 361,931 Stockholders' equity 43,284 43,711 -------------- ------------- Total liabilities and stockholders' equity $ 427,410 $405,642 ============== ============= Net interest income $ 8,260 $8,640 Net Spread (4) 2.28 % 2.45 Net Margin (5) 2.67 % 2.92 Ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest- bearing liabilities 1.09X 1.10X (1) Annualized (2) Average balances include non-accrual loans and loans held for sale.

The Corporation recorded net income of $2.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to net income of $ 2.3 million for the same nine month period ended June 30, 1998. Total Interest Income. Total interest income decreased by $ 424,000 or 1.9% to $22.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 , from $22.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1998. The yield on mortgage-backed securities decreased to 4.80% and the yield on investment securities decreased to 4.77% for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, compared to yields of 5.56% and 5.39%, respectively. The yield on 13 loans receivable decreased to 8.28% for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, from 8.50% for the nine months ended June 30, 1998. Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense remained the same at $13.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. Average interest bearing liabilities increased from $ 358.9 million in 1998 to $379.1 million in 1999 and the cost of the liabilities decreased from 5.13% for the nine months ended June 30, 1998, to 4.84% for the nine months ended June 30, 1999. The average cost of deposits increased $287,000 and the average rate decreased from 4.66% to 4.43% during the comparison period. While average borrowings for the two periods remained about the same, the cost of the borrowings decreased from 5.81% to 5.48% due to the downward trend in interest rates during much of the period. Management can make no assurances regarding the future movement of interest rates, which may impact earnings in future periods. Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased from $ 8.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1998, to $8.3 million for the same period ended June 30, 1999, a decrease of $380,000 or 4.4%. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased from 7.58% to 7.11% during the two periods while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 5.13% to 4.84%. The following table sets forth information with respect to the Bank's allowance for loan losses at the dates indicated: For the Nine Months At June 30, ---------------------------------------- 1999 1998 ---------------------------------------- (In Thousands) Total loans outstanding (1) $ 296,363 $ 299,490 ======================================== Average loans outstanding $ 274,959 $ 274,679 ======================================== Allowance balance (beginning of period) $ 1,035 $ 852 ---------------------------------------- Provision (credit): Residential (2) - - Land and commercial real estate 20 2 Commercial/Agricultural business 312 218 Consumer 10 7 ---------------------------------------- Total provision 342 227 Charge-off: Residential - - Land and commercial real estate - - Consumer 124 40 ---------------------------------------- Total charge-offs 124 40 Recoveries: Residential - - Land and commercial real estate - - Consumer 32 9 ---------------------------------------- Total recoveries 32 9 ---------------------------------------- Net charge-offs 92 31 ---------------------------------------- Allowance balance (end of period) $ 1,285 $ 1,048 ======================================== Allowance as percent of total loans 0.43% 0.35% Net loans charged off as a percent of average loans 0.03% 0.01% - -------------------------------------------------- (1) Includes total loans (including loans held for sale), net of loans in process (2) Includes one- to four-family and multi-family residential real estate loans. Provision for Loan Losses. The Bank's provision for loan loss increased to $342,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998. See also "Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 1999 and 1998- 14 Provision for Loan Losses." Non-interest Income. Total non-interest income increased $2.4 million during the nine month period ended June 30, 1999, to $3.9 million as compared to the same period in 1998. Gains on loans sold increased from $241,000 at June 30, 1998 to $1.9 million at June 30, 1999. $444,000 of the increase was a result of fixed rate mortgages that were sold in the secondary market by the Bank, because they did not fit the interest rate risk profile of the Bank, and $1.2 million of the increase was due to the sale of loans made by Homeowners. Commission income increased from $ 273,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1998, to $672,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999. $364,000 of the increase in commissions was a result of insurance agency activities due to the acquisition of Insurance Planners and $36,000 was due to the sale of federal crop insurance (an ancillary activity of agricultural lending). Other service charges and fees increased from $352,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1998, to $600,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, primarily due to an increase in underwriting fees as a result of the acquisition of Homeowners. Non-interest expense. Total non-interest expense increased $2.3 million or 37.2% over the periods compared. Compensation and benefits increased from $ 3.9 million to $5.1 million or 30.1%, due to the acquisitions of Homeowners and Insurance Planners. Other factors contributing to the increase were the hiring of critical management and related support positions, including marketing, community banking and internal audit. Occupancy and equipment expense increased by $346,000 due primarily to the Homeowners and Insurance Planners acquisitions. Data processing expense increased $60,000 to $424,000 for the period ended June 30, 1999, due to processing expenses associated with increased delivery of electronic services to customers, and to a lesser extent, as a result of the costs associated with the Corporation's Year 2000 compliance program. Professional fees increased $22,000 to $233,000 over the periods compared. Other expenses increased $642,000 from the nine months ended June 30, 1998 to $1.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999. This was comprised mainly of increases in expenses as a result of the acquisitions of Insurance Planners and Homeowners and an increase in marketing expenses. In addition, $76,000 of the increase was due to goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Insurance Planners and Homeowners. Income Tax Expense. Income taxes decreased by $122,000 or 7.9%, to $1.4 million for the nine month period ended June 30, 1999, from $1.5 million for the same period in 1998, primarily due to the decrease in income before tax and an increase in non-deductible expenses. Year 2000 The Year 2000 problem exists because many computer programs use only the last two digits to refer to a year. This convention could affect date-sensitive calculations that treat "00" as the year 1900, rather than 2000. An additional issue is that 1900 was not a leap year, whereas the year 2000 is. Therefore, some programs may not properly provide for February 29, 2000. This anomaly could result in miscalculations when processing critical date-sensitive information after December 31, 1999. The following discussion of the implications of the Year 2000 problem for the Corporation contains numerous forward looking statements based on inherently uncertain information. The cost of the project and the date on which the Corporation plans to complete the internal Year 2000 modifications are based on management's best estimates, which are derived utilizing a number of assumptions of future events including the continued availability of internal and external resources, third party modifications and other factors. However, there can be no guarantee that these statements will be achieved and actual results could differ. Moreover, although management believes it will be able to make the necessary modifications in advance, there can be no guarantee that failure to modify the systems would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation. The Corporation places a high degree of reliance on computer systems of third parties, such as customers, suppliers, and other financial and governmental institutions. Although the Corporation is assessing the readiness of these third parties and preparing contingency plans, there can be no guarantee that the failure of these third parties to modify their systems in advance of December 31, 1999 would not have a material adverse affect on the Corporation. During fiscal 1998, the Bank adopted a Year 2000 Compliance Plan (the "Plan") and established a Year 2000 Compliance Committee (the "Committee"). The objectives of the Plan and the Committee are to prepare the Corporation for the new millennium. As recommended by the Office of Thrift Supervision, the Plan encompasses the following phases: Awareness, Assessment, Renovation, Validation and Implementation. These phases will enable the Corporation to identify risks, develop an action plan, and perform adequate testing and complete affirmation that its processing systems will be Year 2000 ready. Execution of the Plan is 15 currently on target. The Bank has currently moved into Phase 5, Implementation, which involves the installation and application of Year 2000 Ready systems. Concurrently, the Corporation is also addressing some issues related to subsequent phases. Prioritization of the most critical applications has been addressed, along with contract and service agreements. The material data processing functions for the Bank are performed and maintained by a third party vendor. The Bank has maintained ongoing contact with this vendor so that modification of the software for Year 2000 readiness is a top priority and all necessary changes have been competed. Testing of critical applications is complete. The Corporation has contacted all other material vendors and suppliers regarding their Year 2000 state of readiness. Each of these third parties has delivered written assurance to the Bank that they expect to be Year 2000 compliant prior to the Year 2000. The Corporation has completed contacting all material customers and non-information technology suppliers (i.e., utility systems, telephone systems and security systems) regarding their Year 2000 state of readiness. The Implementation phase is to certify that systems are Year 2000 ready, along with assurances that any new systems are compliant on a going-forward basis. The Implementation phase is targeted for completion by September 30, 1999. Also added to the implementation phase is a customer information and awareness program. This is being accomplished through communication to our customers through statement stuffers and other brochures. This is also being accomplished through staff training to help our employees answer any question that our customers may have. Monitoring and managing the Year 2000 project will result in additional direct and indirect costs to the Corporation. Direct costs include potential charges by third party software vendors for product enhancements, costs involved in testing software products for Year 2000 compliance, and any resulting costs for developing and implementing contingency plans for critical software products which are not enhanced. Indirect costs will principally consist of the time devoted by existing employees in managing software vendor progress, testing enhanced software products and implementing any necessary contingency plans. Total direct costs are estimated not to exceed $50,000, of which $40,000 has already been expensed. Actual costs will be charged to earnings over the next three quarters, as incurred. The Corporation is developing remediation contingency plans and business resumption contingency plans specific to the Year 2000. Remediation contingency plans address the actions to be taken if the current approach to remediating a system is falling behind schedule or otherwise appears to be in jeopardy of failing to deliver a Year 2000 ready system when needed. Business resumption contingency plans address the actions that would be taken if critical business functions can not be carried out in the normal manner upon entering the next century due to system or supplier failure. Despite the best efforts of management to address this issue, the vast number of external entities that have direct and indirect business relationships with the Corporation, such as public utilities, customers, vendors, payment system providers and other financial institutions, makes it impossible to assure that a failure to achieve compliance by one or more of these entities would not have material adverse impact on the operations of the Bank. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Corporation's primary sources for funds are deposits, borrowings, principal and interest payments on loans, investments and mortgage-backed securities, sales of mortgage loans, and funds provided by operations. While scheduled payments on loans, mortgage-backed securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and early loan repayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank is required under federal regulations to maintain certain specified levels of "liquid investments", which include certain United States government obligations and other approved investments. Federal regulations reduced the requirement for Banks to maintain liquid assets from 5% to not less than 4% of its net withdrawable accounts plus short term borrowing, and eliminated the requirement to maintain not less than 1% of short term liquid asset of such accounts and borrowings. The Bank's regulatory liquidity was 15.5% and 6.3% at June 30, 1999, and 1998, respectively. The options from the previous method were used in the current period, which are more restrictive. The amount of certificate accounts which are scheduled to mature during the twelve months ending March 31, 2000, was approximately $106.8 million. To the extent that these deposits do not remain at the Bank upon maturity, the Bank believes that it can replace these funds with new deposits, excess liquidity, and FHLB advances or outside borrowings. It has been the Bank's experience that substantial portions of such maturing deposits remain at the Bank. 16 At June 30, 1999, the Bank and Homeowners had loan commitments outstanding of $4.1 million. Funds required to fill these commitments are derived primarily from current excess liquidity, loan sales, advances, deposit inflows or loan and security repayments. Regulations require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of tangible capital and leverage capital to average assets, and risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets.

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. There were no significant changes for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, from the information presented in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1998, concerning quantitative disclosures about market risk. IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation and notes thereto, presented elsewhere herein, have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), which requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Corporation's operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Corporation are financial. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Corporation's performance than do the general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services. 17 PART II ITEM 1.
