6. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
During the quarter, the Company received approval from the Office of Thrift
Supervision to repurchase 10% of its outstanding shares. This repurchase began
on December 31, 1996, with the repurchase of 240,000 shares, leaving a balance
of 821,247 to be repurchased before September 30, 1997. The stock repurchase
program, however, was completed on January 16th, 1997 at an average price of
$15.62 a share.
7. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the period. Shares held by the Company's Employee Stock
Ownership Plan ("ESOP") are considered outstanding only at such time as they are
committed for release. The Company's Management Recognition and Development Plan
("MRDP") shares are considered outstanding at such time as they are committed
for release. The company completed its initial stock offering in October 1995.
Accordingly, earnings per share for any periods beginning prior to December 31,
1995 are not applicable. Weighted average shares outstanding for the three month
period ending December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 were 10,239,751 shares and
11,254,475 shares, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Safe Harbor Clause. This report contains certain "forward-looking statements."
The Company desires to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this statement
for the express purpose of availing itself of the protection of such safe harbor
with respect to all of such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements, which are included in Management's Discussion and Analysis, describe
future plans or strategies and include the Company's expectations of future
financial results. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate,"
"project," and similar expressions identify forward looking statements. The
Company's ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies
is inherently uncertain. Factors which could affect actual results include
interest rate trends, the general economic climate in the Company's market area
and the country as a whole, loan delinquency rates, and changes in federal and
state regulation. These factors should be considered in evaluating the
forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such
statements.
General
The Company became the unitary savings and loan holding company for the
Association upon the Association's conversion from a federally chartered mutual
to a federally chartered stock savings and loan association ("Conversion") on
October 4, 1995. At December 31, 1996, the Company had total consolidated assets
of $673.1 million and consolidated shareholders' equity of $152.6 million. The
Company is currently not engaged in any other business activity other than
holding the stock of the Association and investing excess cash in investment
securities or mortgage backed securities. Accordingly, the information set forth
in this report, including financial statements and related data, relates to the
Association.
As a traditional, community-oriented, savings and loan, the Association focuses
on customer service within its principal market area. The Association's primary
market activity is attracting deposits from the general public and using those
and other available sources of funds to originate permanent residential one- to
four-family real estate loans within its market area and, to a lesser extent, on
commercial property and multi-family dwellings.
Net interest income, which is the difference between interest and dividend
income on interest-earning assets, primarily loans and investment securities,
and interest expense on interest-bearing deposits and borrowings, is the major
source of profitability for the Company. Because the Company depends primarily
on net interest income for its earnings, the focus of the Company's management
is to create and implement strategies that will provide stable, positive spreads
between the yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing
liabilities. Such strategies include the Association's recent introduction of a
variable rate home equity lending program that will have an interest rate tied
to the Wall Street Journal published prime rate with an additional margin of
2.0%. To a lesser degree, the net earnings of the Company rely on the level of
its non-interest income. The Company is aggressively pursuing strategies to
improve its service charges and other fees income, and decreasing its non-
interest expense, which includes employee compensation and benefits, occupancy
and equipment expense, deposit insurance premiums and miscellaneous other
expenses, as well as federal and state income tax expense.
The Association is regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") and its
deposits are insured up to applicable limits under the Savings Association
Insurance Fund ("SAIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC").
The Association is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle, conducting
its business through eight office facilities, with the main office located in
Klamath Falls, Oregon. The primary market area of the Association are the
counties of Klamath, Jackson and Deschutes in Southern and Central Oregon.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation." This Statement prescribes accounting and reporting standards for
all stock-based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted
stock and stock appreciation rights. The Statement defines a "fair value based
method" of accounting for employee stock options and encourages all entities to
adopt that method of accounting for all of their employee stock compensation
plans. However, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation for
those plans using the "intrinsic value based method" under Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("Opinion No.
25").
Under the fair value based method, compensation cost is measured at the
grant date of the option based on the value of the award and is recognized over
the service period, which is usually the vesting period. Under the intrinsic
value based method, compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted
market price of the stock at grant date or other measurement date over the
amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The stock options granted
under the Company's stock option plan have no intrinsic value at grant date, and
under Opinion No. 25 no compensation cost is recognized for them. Compensation
cost is recognized for other types of stock-based compensation plans under
Opinion No. 25. Beginning in fiscal year ending September 30, 1997, SFAS No. 123
requires that an employer's audited financial statements include certain
disclosures about stock-based compensation arrangements regardless of the method
used to account for them. An employer that continues to apply the accounting
provisions of Opinion No. 25 will disclose pro forma amounts that reflect the
difference between compensation cost, if any, included in net income and the
related cost measured by the fair value based method, including tax effects,
that would have been recognized in the income statement if the fair valued based
method had been used. The Company will continue to apply Opinion No. 25 in
accounting for stock-based compensation plans.
Changes in Financial Condition
At December 31, 1996, the consolidated assets of the Company totalled $673.1
million, an increase of $1.1 million or 0.16% from September 30, 1996. The
increase in total assets was a result of an increase in net loans receivable of
$15.0 million and a $2.9 million increase in FHLB stock. These increases were
offset by sales and repayments on mortgage backed securities of $3.7 million and
sales and maturities on investment securities of $14.2 million.
Net loans receivable increased by $15.0 million for the quarter, or 3.17%, to
$488.6 million at December 31, 1996, compared to $473.6 at September 30, 1996.
The increase was primarily the result of continued new loan demand, prompted by
aggressive marketing efforts by each branch office, exceeding loan repayments.
Investment securities decreased $14.2 million, or 16.6%, from $85.8 million at
September 30, 1996 to $71.6 million at December 31, 1996. This was the result of
$30.9 million in securities maturing during the quarter and $16.1 million of
securities that were sold, offset by the purchase of $32.3 million in additional
securities.
During the quarter ended December 31, 1996, $4.6 million of principal was repaid
on mortgage backed securities ("MBS") and $4.7 million in available for sale MBS
were sold. In addition, $5.1 million in MBS were purchased, which resulted in
the decreased balance of $77.2 million at December 31, 1996 compared to $80.9
million at September 30, 1996, a decrease of $3.7 million, or 4.6%.
Savings deposits increased $2.1 million, or .5%, from $399.7 million at
September 30, 1996 to $401.8 million at December 31, 1996. Management attributes
the increase to the maintaining of competitive interest rates. Interest credited
on accounts also contributed to the increase.
11
Advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance decreased $7.4 million from
September 30, 1996 to December 31, 1996, after paying $9.5 million in reserves
for the required real estate taxes due on the Association's loan receivable
portfolio and $300,000 in refunds due to decreased real estate taxes due for the
prior twelve months.
Advances from the FHLB of Seattle increased $11.0 million, or 12.2%, from $90.0
million at September 30, 1996 to $101.0 million at December 31, 1996. The
increase was used to fund the $15.0 million in net loans receivable.
Total shareholders' equity decreased $800,000, or 0.6%, from $153.4 million at
September 30, 1996 to $152.6 million at December 31, 1996. This was the combined
result of $1.9 million in earnings during the three month period of September
30, 1996 to December 31, 1996, the repurchase of stock on December 31, 1996 for
$3.7 million, and declaring a dividend for the first quarter totalling $0.8
million.
RESULTS OF OPERATION
Comparison of Three Months Ended December 31, 1996 and 1995
General. Net interest income increased $335,111 or 6.26% comparing the three
month period ending December 31, 1996 to the same period ending December 31,
1995. Interest income increased $1.7 million, while interest expense increased
by only $1.3 million comparing the three month period ended December 31, 1995 to
the same period ended December 31, 1996. Non-interest income also increased by
$33,040, while non interest expense increased by $764,086 comparing the same two
periods. This resulted in net income decreasing $300,000 or 14.6%, from $2.2
million for the three months ended December 31, 1995 to $1.9 million for the
three months ended December 31, 1996. The additional non-interest expense was
primarily attributable to an $597,000 increase in non-interest expense related
to employee benefit plans adopted in connection with the Conversion.
Interest Income. The increase of $1.7 million in interest income was generated
by an additional $70.2 million in average interest earning assets for the three
months ended December 31, 1996 compared to 1995. The decrease in federal funds
sold income of $.08 million resulted from federal funds sold being redeployed in
mortgage backed securities and loans receivable, resulting in a $1.0 million
increase in interest income on mortgage backed securities and $1.3 million
increase in loans receivable.
The average yield on interest earning assets increased 25 basis points from
7.18% for the three months ended December 31, 1995 to 7.43% for the same period
ended December 31, 1996. This reflects the Company's continued effort to invest
in loans and investments with higher yields, without materially increasing risk.
Interest Expense. Interest expense on savings deposits increased $50,074 for the
three months ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995.
Although total deposits grew by $19.7 million from December 31, 1995 to December
31, 1996, the average interest paid on interest-bearing deposits declined 11
basis points from 5.26% for the three months ended December 31, 1995 to 5.15%
for the same period ended December 31, 1996. Although the average cost of funds
decreased to 5.15%, total interest expense increased due to the $19.7 million in
deposit growth.
Provision for Loan Losses. For both three month periods ending December 31, 1996
and December 31, 1995, the provision for loan losses was $30,000 and there were
not any charge offs during the quarter. At December 31, 1996, the allowance for
loan losses was equal to 447.7% of non-performing assets compared to 485.9% at
September 30, 1996. The decrease in the coverage ratio at December 31, 1996 was
the result of a slight increase non-performing loans from $191,000 at September
30, 1996 to $214,000 at December 31, 1996.
12
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income increased $33,040, or 41.6%, to
$112,510 for the three months ended December 31, 1996 from $79,470 for the three
months ended December 31, 1995. The increase was primarily attributable to
increased income from additional fee income, gains on the sale of real estate
owned and gain on sale of investments. Additional fee income came as a result of
aggressive internal marketing efforts to improve fee income from checking
accounts, ATMs, and mortgage life insurance sales.
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $764,086, or 41.5%, for the
three months ended December 31, 1996, from $1.8 million for the comparable
period in 1995 to $2.6 million. Of this increase, $597,338 was attributable to
an increase in compensation and benefit expense in 1996, reflecting the accrual
for Employee Stock Ownership Plan contributions and the Management Recognition
and Development Plan. The balance of the increase was a result of a loss on sale
of investments of $15,000. The ratio of non-interest expense to average total
assets was 1.5% and 1.2% for the three months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
Income Taxes. Although the provision for income tax increased to 40% of pretax
income for the three months ended December 31, 1996, compared to 37% for the
same period ended December 31, 1995, the provision for income taxes decreased
$68,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared with the prior
year, as a result of lower pretax earnings for the quarter.
