ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

GENERAL

      Camco Financial Corporation ("Camco") is a financial holding company which
was organized under Delaware law in 1970. Camco is engaged in the financial
services business in Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginia, through its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Advantage Bank and Camco Title Insurance Agency, Inc. In June
2001, Camco completed a reorganization in which it combined its banking
activities under one Ohio savings bank charter known as Advantage Bank
("Advantage" or the "Bank"). Prior to the reorganization, Camco operated five
separate banking subsidiaries (Cambridge Savings Bank, Marietta Savings Bank,
First Savings Bank, First Bank for Savings and Westwood Homestead Savings Bank)
serving distinct geographic areas. The branch office groups in each of the
regions previously served by the five subsidiary banks now operate as divisions
of Advantage. In 2003, Camco dissolved its second tier subsidiary, Camco
Mortgage Corporation, and converted its offices into branch offices of the Bank.
In August 2004, Camco completed a business combination with London Financial
Corporation ("London") of London, Ohio, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The
Citizens Bank of London. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting and, therefore, the financial statements for prior periods
have not been restated. At the time of the merger, Advantage Bank merged into
The Citizens Bank of London and changed the name of the resulting institution to
Advantage Bank. As a result, Camco's subsidiary financial institution is now an
Ohio-chartered commercial bank instead of an Ohio savings bank. Further, Camco
converted from an OTS regulated thrift holding company to a financial holding
company regulated by the Federal Reserve Board.

      During the periods for which financial information is presented, Camco
completed several business combinations in addition to the London transaction,
all of which were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and,
therefore, the financial statements for prior periods have not been restated.
During 2000, Camco completed a business combination with Westwood Homestead
Financial Corporation ("WHFC") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Westwood
Homestead Savings Bank and in November 2001, Camco completed a business
combination with Columbia Financial of Kentucky, Inc. (Columbia Financial"), and
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Columbia Federal Savings Bank. In December 2004,
Advantage sold its Ashland, Kentucky division, consisting of two branches.

      Advantage is primarily regulated by the State of Ohio Department of
Commerce, Division of Financial Institutions (the "Division"), and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). Advantage is a member of the Federal
Home Loan Bank (the "FHLB") of Cincinnati, and its deposit accounts are insured
up to applicable limits by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (the "SAIF")
administered by the FDIC. Camco is regulated by the Federal Reserve Board.

      Advantage's primary lending activities include the origination of
conventional fixed-rate and variable-rate mortgage loans for the acquisition,
construction or refinancing of single-family homes located in Camco's primary
market areas. Camco also originates construction and permanent mortgage loans on
condominiums, two- to four-family, multi-family (over four units) and
nonresidential properties. In addition to mortgage lending, Camco makes a
variety of consumer and commercial loans.

      The financial statements for Camco and its subsidiaries are prepared on a
consolidated basis. The principal source of revenue for Camco on an
unconsolidated basis has historically been dividends from the Bank. Payment of
dividends to Camco by the Bank is subject to various regulatory restrictions and
tax considerations.

      References in this report to various aspects of the business, operations
and financial condition of Camco may be limited to Advantage, as the context
requires.

      Generally, loans originated by Advantage are on a fully amortized basis.
Advantage has no rollover provisions in its loan documents and anticipates that
loans will be paid in full by the maturity date.

      RESIDENTIAL LOANS. A significant lending activity of Advantage is the
origination of fixed-rate and adjustable-rate conventional loans for the
acquisition, refinancing or construction of single-family residences. At
December 31, 2004, 72.1% of the total outstanding loans consisted of loans
secured by mortgages on one- to four-family residential properties.

      Federal regulations and Ohio law limit the amount which Advantage may lend
in relationship to the appraised value of the underlying real estate at the time
of loan origination (the "Loan-to-Value Ratio" or "LTV"). In accordance with
such regulations and law, Advantage generally makes loans on single-family
residences up to 95% of the value of the real estate and improvements. Advantage
generally requires the borrower on each loan which has an LTV in excess of 80%
to obtain private mortgage insurance or a guarantee by a federal agency.

      The interest rate adjustment periods on adjustable-rate mortgage loans
("ARMs") offered by Advantage are generally one, three and five years. The
interest rates initially charged on ARMs and the new rates at each adjustment
date are determined by adding a stated margin to a designated interest rate
index. Advantage has generally used the one-year,

                                        4


three-year and five-year United States Treasury bill rates, adjusted to a
constant maturity, as the index for their one-year, three-year and five-year
adjustable-rate loans, respectively. Advantage has introduced the use of LIBOR
as our additional index on certain loan programs to begin to diversify its
concentrations of indices that may prove beneficial during repricing of loans
throughout changing economic cycles. The initial interest rates for three-year
and five-year ARMs are set slightly higher than for the one-year ARM to
compensate for the reduced interest rate sensitivity. The maximum adjustment at
each adjustment date for ARMs is usually 2%, with a maximum adjustment of 6%
over the term of the loan.

      From time to time, Advantage originates ARMs which have an initial
interest rate that is lower than the sum of the specified index plus the margin.
Such loans are subject to increased risk of delinquency or default due to
increasing monthly payments as the interest rates on such loans increase to the
fully indexed level. Advantage attempts to reduce the risk by underwriting one -
year arms at the fully indexed rate and three-year and five-year arms utilizing
the note rates. None of Advantage's ARMs have negative amortization features.

      Residential mortgage loans offered by Advantage are usually for terms of
up to 30 years, which could have an adverse effect upon earnings if the loans do
not reprice as quickly as the cost of funds. To minimize such effect, Advantage
emphasizes the origination of ARMs and generally sells fixed-rate loans when
conditions favor such a sale. Furthermore, experience reveals that, as a result
of prepayments in connection with refinancings and sales of the underlying
properties, residential loans generally remain outstanding for periods which are
substantially shorter than the maturity of such loans.

      Of the total mortgage loans originated by Advantage during the year ended
December 31, 2004, 50.9% were ARMs and 49.1% were fixed-rate loans.
Adjustable-rate loans comprised 65.9% of Advantage's total outstanding loans at
December 31, 2004.

      CONSTRUCTION LOANS. Advantage offers residential construction loans both
to owner-occupants and to builders for homes being built under contract with
owner-occupants. Advantage also makes loans to persons constructing projects for
investment purposes. At December 31, 2004, a total of $75.1 million, or
approximately 9.0% of Advantage's total loans, consisted of construction loans,
primarily for one- to four-family properties.

      Construction loans to owner-occupants are 30 year fixed rate, 15 year
fixed rate, or seven year balloon loans or adjustable-rate long-term loans on
which the borrower pays only interest on the disbursed portion during the
construction period. Some construction loans to builders, however, have terms of
up to 24 months at fixed or adjustable rates of interest.

      Construction loans for investment properties involve greater underwriting
and default risks to Advantage than do loans secured by mortgages on existing
properties or construction loans for single-family residences. Loan funds are
advanced upon the security of the project under construction, which is more
difficult to value in the case of investment properties before the completion of
construction. Moreover, because of the uncertainties inherent in estimating
construction costs, it is relatively difficult to evaluate precisely the total
loan funds required to complete a project and the related Loan-to-Value Ratios.
In the event a default on a construction loan occurs and foreclosure follows,
Advantage could be adversely affected in that it would have to take control of
the project and attempt either to arrange for completion of construction or
dispose of the unfinished project. At December 31, 2004, Advantage had 34
construction loans in the amount of $18.1 million on investment properties.

      NONRESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE LOANS. Advantage originates loans secured by
mortgages on nonresidential real estate, including retail, office and other
types of business facilities. Nonresidential real estate loans are generally
made on an adjustable-rate basis for terms of up to 25 years. Nonresidential
real estate loans originated by Advantage generally have an LTV of 80% or less.
The largest nonresidential real estate loan outstanding at December 31, 2004,
was a $5.8 million loan secured by a nursing home. Nonresidential real estate
loans comprised $105.2 million, or 12.6% of total loans at December 31, 2004.

      Nonresidential real estate lending is generally considered to involve a
higher degree of risk than residential lending due to the relatively larger loan
amounts and the effects of general economic conditions on the successful
operation of income-producing properties. Advantage has endeavored to reduce
this risk by carefully evaluating the credit history and past performance of the
borrower, the location of the real estate, the quality of the management
constructing or operating

                                        5


the property, the debt service ratio and cash flow analysis, the quality and
characteristics of the income stream generated by the property and appraisals
supporting the property's valuation.

      CONSUMER LOANS. Advantage makes various types of consumer loans, including
loans made to depositors on the security of their savings deposits, automobile
loans, education loans, home improvement loans, home equity line of credit loans
and unsecured personal loans. Home equity loans are generally made at a variable
rate of interest for terms of up to 10 years. Most other consumer loans are
generally made at fixed rates of interest for terms of up to 10 years. The risk
of default on consumer loans during an economic recession is greater than for
residential mortgage loans. Included in consumer and other loans is
approximately $47.3 million of multifamily loans of which the largest is $2.9
million secured by an apartment building. At December 31, 2004, education,
consumer and other loans, including multi-family loans, constituted $84.6
million, or 10.1% of Camco's total loans.

      DEVELOPED BUILDING LOTS. Advantage originates loans secured by developed
building lots and generally are made on an adjustable-rate basis for terms of up
to five years. Developed building lots generally have an LTV of 75% or less.

      LOAN SOLICITATION AND PROCESSING. Loan originations are developed from a
number of sources, including: solicitations by Advantage's lending staff;
referrals from real estate brokers, loan brokers and builders; continuing
business with depositors, other borrowers and real estate developers; and
walk-in customers. Advantage's management stresses the importance of
individualized attention to the financial needs of its customers.

      The loan origination process is decentralized, with each of Advantage's
divisions having autonomy in loan processing and approval for its respective
market area. Mortgage loan applications from potential borrowers are taken by
one of the loan officers of the division originating the loan, after which they
are forwarded to the division's loan department for processing. On new loans,
the Bank typically obtains a credit report, verification of employment and other
documentation concerning the borrower and orders an appraisal of the fair market
value of the real estate which will secure the loan. The real estate is
thereafter physically inspected and appraised by a staff appraiser or by a
designated fee appraiser approved by the Board of Directors of Advantage. Upon
the completion of the appraisal and the receipt of all necessary information
regarding the borrower, the loan is approved by the loan officer up to such
officer's maximum loan approval authority. Loans above the maximum receive
additional approval by officers with higher loan approval authority. If the loan
is approved, an attorney's opinion of title or title insurance is obtained on
the real estate which will secure the loan. Borrowers are required to carry
satisfactory fire and casualty insurance and, if applicable, flood and private
mortgage insurance, and to name Advantage as an insured mortgagee.

      The procedure for approval of construction loans is the same as for
residential mortgage loans, except that the appraiser evaluates the building
plans, construction specifications and construction cost estimates. Advantage
also evaluates the feasibility of the proposed construction project.

      Consumer loans are underwritten on the basis of the borrower's credit
history and an analysis of the borrower's income and expenses, ability to repay
the loan and the value of the collateral, if any.

      LOAN ORIGINATIONS, PURCHASES AND SALES. Advantage has been actively
originating new 30-year, 15-year, 10-year fixed-rate and seven-year balloon real
estate loans as well as adjustable-rate real estate loans, consumer loans and
commercial loans. Generally all residential fixed-rate loans made by Advantage
are originated with documentation which will permit a possible sale of such
loans to secondary mortgage market investors. When a mortgage loan is sold to
the investor, Advantage generally services the loan by collecting monthly
payments of principal and interest and forwarding such payments to the investor,
net of a servicing fee. During the year ended December 31, 2004, Advantage also
sold loans with servicing released. Fixed-rate loans not sold and generally all
of the ARMs originated by Advantage are held in Advantage's loan portfolio.
During the year ended December 31, 2004, Advantage sold approximately $117.9
million in loans. Advantage recognized $1.6 million in mortgage servicing rights
during 2004, while amortization of mortgage servicing rights totaled $1.2
million for the year ended December 31, 2004.

                                        6


      From time to time, Advantage sells participation interests in mortgage
loans originated by it and purchases whole loans or participation interests in
loans originated by other lenders. Advantage held whole loans and participations
in loans originated by other lenders of approximately $43.2 million at December
31, 2004. Loans which Advantage purchases must meet or exceed the underwriting
standards for loans originated by Advantage.

      In recent years, Advantage has purchased mortgage-backed securities
insured or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies in order to improve Camco's
asset yield by profitably investing excess funds. Advantage intends to continue
to purchase such mortgage-backed securities when conditions favor such an
investment. See "Investment Activities."

      LENDING LIMIT. Federal regulations and Ohio law generally impose a lending
limit on the aggregate amount that a depository institution can lend to one
borrower to an amount equal to 15% of the institution's total capital for
risk-based capital purposes plus any loan reserves not already included in total
capital (the "Lending Limit Capital"). A depository institution may loan to one
borrower an additional amount not to exceed 10% of the institution's Lending
Limit Capital, if the additional amount is fully secured by certain forms of
"readily marketable collateral." Real estate is not considered "readily
marketable collateral." In applying this limit, the regulations require that
loans to certain related or affiliated borrowers be aggregated.

      The largest amount which Advantage could have loaned to one borrower at
December 31, 2004, was approximately $12.1 million. The largest amount Advantage
had outstanding to one borrower and related persons or entities at December 31,
2004, was $8.1 million, which consisted of 8 loans secured by real estate,
commercial real estate in development and building lots.

                                        7


      LOAN ORIGINATION AND OTHER FEES. In addition to interest earned on loans,
Advantage may receive loan origination fees or "points" of up to 2.0% of the
loan amount, depending on the type of loan, plus reimbursement of certain other
expenses. Loan origination fees and other fees are a volatile source of income,
varying with the volume of lending and economic conditions. All nonrefundable
loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and
recognized as an adjustment to yield over the life of the related loan in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 91.

      DELINQUENT LOANS, NONPERFORMING ASSETS AND CLASSIFIED ASSETS. Advantage
attempts to minimize loan delinquencies through the assessment of late charges
and adherence to established collection procedures. Generally, after a loan
payment is 15 days delinquent, a late charge of 5% of the amount of the payment
is assessed and a collection officer contacts the borrower to request payment.
In certain limited instances, Advantage may modify the loan or grant a limited
moratorium on loan payments to enable the borrower to reorganize his or her
financial affairs. Advantage generally initiates foreclosure proceedings, in
accordance with applicable laws, when it appears that a modification or
moratorium would not be productive.

      Real estate which has been acquired by Advantage as a result of
foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as "real estate
owned" until it is sold. "Real estate owned" is recorded at the lower of the
book value of the loan or the fair value of the property less estimated selling
expenses at the date of acquisition. Periodically, "real estate owned" is
reviewed to ensure that fair value is not less than carrying value, and any
write-down resulting therefrom is charged to earnings as a provision for losses
on real estate acquired through foreclosure. All costs incurred from the date of
acquisition are expensed in the period paid.

      The following table reflects the amount of loans in a delinquent status as
of the dates indicated:

      Nonaccrual status denotes loans for which, in the opinion of management,
the collection of additional interest is unlikely, or loans that meet nonaccrual
criteria as established by regulatory authorities. Payments received on a
nonaccrual loan are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or
recorded as interest income, depending on management's assessment of the
collectibility of the loan. The following table sets forth information with
respect to Advantage's nonaccruing and delinquent loans for the periods
indicated.

      The amount of interest income that would have been recorded had nonaccrual
loans performed in accordance with contractual terms totaled approximately
$573,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Interest collected on such loans
and included in net earnings was $227,000.

      At December 31, 2004, there were no loans which were not classified as
nonaccrual, 90 days past due or restructured which management considered
classifying in the near future due to concerns as to the ability of the
borrowers to comply with repayment terms. Management changed the policy for
designating loans as nonaccrual during 2002 to include all loans greater than 90
days past due.

      Federal regulations require the Bank to classify its assets on a regular
basis. Problem assets are to be classified as either (i) "substandard," (ii)
"doubtful" or (iii) "loss." Substandard assets have one or more defined
weaknesses and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured
institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful assets have the same weaknesses as substandard assets with the
additional characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in
full highly questionable and improbable on the basis of existing facts,
conditions and value. Assets classified as "loss" are considered uncollectible
and of such little value that their treatment as assets without the
establishment of a specific reserve is unwarranted. Federal regulations provide
for the reclassification of real estate assets by federal examiners.

            At December 31, 2004, the aggregate amounts of Camco's classified
assets were as follows:

  Substandard                      $9,667
  Doubtful                            129
  Loss                                129

    Total classified assets        $9,925
                                   ======


      The interpretive guidance of the regulations also includes a "special
mention" category, consisting of assets which do not currently expose an insured
institution to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant classification, but which
possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving management's close
attention. Advantage classifies nonaccrual residential real estate and consumer
loans with a loan to value of 72% or less as a special mention asset. Advantage
had assets in the amount of $1.0 million designated as "special mention" at
December 31, 2004.

      ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at
a level considered appropriate by management based on historical experience, the
volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, the status of past due
principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as
such conditions relate to the Bank's market areas, and other factors related to
the collectibility of the Bank's loan portfolio. The following table sets forth
an analysis of Advantage's allowance for loan losses:

DEPOSITS AND BORROWINGS

      GENERAL. Deposits have traditionally been the primary source of
Advantage's funds for use in lending and other investment activities. In
addition to deposits, Advantage derives funds from interest payments and
principal repayments on loans, advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati and income
on earning assets. Loan payments are a relatively stable source of funds, while
deposit inflows and outflows fluctuate more in response to general interest rate
and money market conditions. As part of Advantage's asset and liability
management strategy, FHLB advances and other borrowings are used to fund loan
originations and for general business purposes. FHLB advances are also used on a
short-term basis to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds from
other sources.

      DEPOSITS. Deposits are attracted principally from within Advantage's
primary market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit
instruments, including interest-bearing and non-interest bearing checking
accounts, money market deposit accounts, regular savings accounts, term
certificate accounts and retirement savings plans. Interest rates paid, maturity
terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties for the various types of accounts
are established periodically by management of Advantage based on its liquidity
requirements, growth goals and interest rates paid by competitors. Interest
rates paid by Advantage on deposits are not limited by federal or state law or
regulation. Advantage generally does not obtain funds through brokers or offer
premiums to attract deposits. Advantage does not have a significant amount of
savings accounts from outside its primary market areas.

      BORROWINGS. The twelve regional FHLBs function as central reserve banks,
providing credit for their member institutions. As a member in good standing of
the FHLB of Cincinnati, Advantage is authorized to apply for advances from the
FHLB of Cincinnati, provided certain standards of creditworthiness have been
met. Advances are made pursuant to several different programs, each having its
own interest rate and range of maturities. Depending on the program, limitations
on the amount of advances are based either on a fixed percentage of an
institution's regulatory capital or on the FHLB's assessment of the
institution's creditworthiness. Under current regulations, a member institution
must meet certain qualifications to be eligible for FHLB advances.

COMPETITION

      Advantage competes for deposits with other savings associations, savings
banks, commercial banks and credit unions and with the issuers of commercial
paper and other securities, such as shares in money market mutual funds. The
primary factors in competing for deposits are interest rates and convenience of
office location. In making loans, Advantage competes with other savings banks,
savings associations, commercial banks, consumer finance companies, credit
unions and other lenders. Advantage competes for loan originations primarily
through the interest rates and loan fees it charges and through the efficiency
and quality of the services it provides to borrowers. Competition is affected
by, among other things, the general availability of lendable funds, general and
local economic conditions, current interest rate levels and other factors which
are not readily predictable.

SERVICE CORPORATION ACTIVITIES

      Advantage has no operating subsidiaries. First S&L Corporation, a
subsidiary, is inactive and was capitalized on a nominal basis at December 31,
2004.

                                      14


EMPLOYEES

      As of December 31, 2004, Camco had 264 full-time employees and 31
part-time employees. Camco believes that relations with its employees are good.
Camco offers health and disability benefits and a 401(k) salary savings plan.
None of the employees of Camco are represented by a collective bargaining unit.

                                   REGULATION

GENERAL

        As a financial holding company registered under the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act"), Camco is subject to regulation,
examination and oversight by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System ("FRB"). Although Camco is recognized as a financial holding company,
most regulations pertaining to bank holding companies also apply to it.
Advantage is a non-member of the FRB and is subject to regulation by the
Division and the FDIC. Camco and Advantage must file periodic reports with these
governmental agencies, as applicable, concerning their activities and financial
condition. Examinations are conducted periodically by the applicable regulators
to determine whether Camco and Advantage are in compliance with various
regulatory requirements and are operating in a safe and sound manner. Advantage
is also subject to certain regulations promulgated by the FRB.

OHIO REGULATION

      Regulation by the Division affects the internal organization of Advantage,
as well as its savings, mortgage lending and other investment activities.
Periodic examinations by the Division are usually conducted on a joint basis
with the federal examiners. Ohio law requires that Advantage maintain federal
deposit insurance as a condition of doing business. The ability of Ohio banks to
engage in certain state-authorized investments is subject to oversight and
approval by the FDIC. See "Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation - State
Chartered Bank Activities."

      Any mergers involving, or acquisitions of control of, Ohio banks must be
approved by the Division. The Division may initiate certain supervisory measures
or formal enforcement actions against Ohio savings banks. Ultimately, if the
grounds provided by law exist, the Division may place an Ohio bank in
conservatorship or receivership.

      In addition to being governed by the laws of Ohio specifically governing
banks, Advantage is also governed by Ohio corporate law, to the extent such law
does not conflict with the laws specifically governing banks.

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

      SUPERVISION AND EXAMINATION. The FDIC is responsible for the regulation
and supervision of all commercial banks that are not members of the Federal
Reserve System ("Non-member Banks"). The FDIC is an independent federal agency
that insures the deposits, up to prescribed statutory limits, of federally
insured banks and thrifts and safeguards the safety and soundness of the banking
and thrift industries. The FDIC administers two separate insurance funds, the
Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") for commercial banks and certain state savings banks
and the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") for savings associations and
savings banks which were formerly organized as savings associations. As a former
savings association, Advantage is a member of the SAIF and its deposit accounts
are insured by the FDIC, up to the prescribed limits.

      The FDIC issues regulations governing the operations of Non-member Banks,
examines such institutions and may initiate enforcement actions against the
institution and their affiliates for violations of laws and regulations or for
engaging in unsafe or unsound practices. If the grounds provided by law exist,
the FDIC may appoint a conservator or a receiver for a Non-member Bank.

      Non-member Banks are subject to regulatory oversight under various
consumer protection and fair lending laws. These laws govern, among other

community reinvestment. Failure to abide by federal laws and regulations
governing community reinvestment could limit the ability of an institution to
open a new branch or engage in a merger transaction.

      STATE CHARTERED BANK ACTIVITIES. The ability of Advantage to engage in any
state-authorized activities or make any state-authorized investments, as
principal, is limited if such activity is conducted or investment is made in a
manner different than that permitted for, or subject to different terms and
conditions than those imposed on, national banks. Engaging as a principal in any
such activity or investment not permissible for a national bank is subject to
approval by the FDIC. Such approval will not be granted unless certain capital
requirements are met and there is not a significant risk to the FDIC insurance
fund. Most equity and real estate investments (excluding office space and other
real estate owned) authorized by state law are not permitted for national banks.
Certain exceptions are granted for activities deemed by the FRB to be closely
related to banking and for FDIC-approved subsidiary activities.

      LIQUIDITY. Advantage is not required to maintain a specific level of
liquidity; however, the FDIC expects it to maintain adequate liquidity to
protect safety and soundness.

      REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. Camco and Advantage are required by
applicable law and regulations to meet certain minimum capital requirements. The
capital standards include a leverage limit, or core capital requirement, a
tangible capital requirement and a risk-based capital requirement.

      The leverage capital requirement is a minimum level of Tier 1 capital to
average total consolidated assets of 4%. "Tier 1" capital includes common
stockholders equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and minority
interest in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less all
intangibles, other than includable purchased mortgage servicing rights and
credit card relationships.

      The risk-based capital requirement specifies total capital, which consists
of core or Tier 1 capital and certain general valuation reserves, as a minimum
of 8% of risk-weighted assets. For purposes of computing risk-based capital,
assets and certain off-balance sheet items are weighted at percentage levels
ranging from 0% to 100%, depending on their relative risk.

      The FRB and FDIC have adopted regulations governing prompt corrective
action to resolve the problems of capital deficient and otherwise troubled
savings associations and Non-member Banks. At each successively lower defined
capital category, an institution is subject to more restrictive and numerous
mandatory or discretionary regulatory actions or limits, and the applicable
agency has less flexibility in determining how to resolve the problems of the
institution. In addition, the agency generally can downgrade an institution's
capital category, notwithstanding its capital level, if, after notice and
opportunity for hearing, the institution is deemed to be engaging in an unsafe
or unsound practice, because it has not corrected deficiencies that resulted in
it receiving a less than satisfactory examination rating on matters other than
capital or it is deemed to be in an unsafe or unsound condition. Camco and
Advantage's capital level at December 31, 2004, met the standards for
well-capitalized institutions.

      Federal law prohibits a financial institution from making a capital
distribution to anyone or paying management fees to any person having control of
the institution if, after such distribution or payment, the institution would be
undercapitalized. In addition, each company controlling an undercapitalized
institution must guarantee that the institution will comply with its capital
restoration plan until the institution has been adequately capitalized on
average during each of the four preceding calendar quarters and must provide
adequate assurances of performance.

TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND INSIDERS

      All transactions between banks and their affiliates must comply with
Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (the "FRA") and the FRB's
Regulation W. An affiliate is any company or entity which controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with the financial institution. In a
holding company context, the parent holding company of a bank and any companies
that are controlled by such parent holding company are affiliates of the
institution. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B of the FRA (i) limit the extent to
which a financial institution or its subsidiaries may engage in "covered
transactions" with any one affiliate up to an amount equal to 10% of such
institution's capital stock and surplus for any one affiliate and 20% of such
capital stock and surplus for the aggregate of such transactions with all
affiliates, and (ii) require that all such transactions be on terms
substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the institution or the
subsidiary, as those provided to a non-affiliate. The term "covered transaction"
includes the making of loans, purchase of assets, issuance of a guarantee and
similar types of transactions. Exemptions from Sections 23A or 23B of the FRA
may be granted only by the FRB. Advantage was in compliance with these
requirements at December 31, 2004.

CHANGE IN CONTROL

      FEDERAL LAW. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (the "FDIA") provides that
no person, acting directly or indirectly or in concert with one or more persons,
shall acquire control of any insured depository institution or holding company,
unless 60-days prior written notice has been given to the primary federal
regulator for that institution and such regulator has not issued a notice
disapproving the proposed acquisition. Control, for purposes of the FDIA, means
the

                                      17


power, directly or indirectly, alone or acting in concert, to direct the
management or policies of an insured institution or to vote 25% or more of any
class of securities of such institution. Control exists in situations in which
the acquiring party has direct or indirect voting control of at least 25% of the
institution's voting shares, controls in any manner the election of a majority
of the directors of such institution or is determined to exercise a controlling
influence over the management or policies of such institution. In addition,
control is presumed to exist, under certain circumstances where the acquiring
party (which includes a group "acting in concert") has voting control of at
least 10% of the institution's voting stock. These restrictions do not apply to
holding company acquisitions. See "Holding Company Regulation".

      OHIO LAW. A statutory limitation on the acquisition of control of an Ohio
bank requires the written approval of the Division prior to the acquisition by
any person or entity of a controlling interest in an Ohio association. Control
exists, for purposes of Ohio law, when any person or entity which, either
directly or indirectly, or acting in concert with one or more other persons or
entities, owns, controls, holds with power to vote, or holds proxies
representing, 15% or more of the voting shares or rights of an association, or
controls in any manner the election or appointment of a majority of the
directors. A director will not be deemed to be in control by virtue of an annual
solicitation of proxies voted as directed by a majority of the board of
directors. Ohio law also requires that certain acquisitions of voting securities
that would result in the acquiring shareholder owning 20%, 33-1/3% or 50% of the
outstanding voting securities of Camco must be approved in advance by the
holders of at least a majority of the outstanding voting shares represented at a
meeting at which a quorum is present and a majority of the portion of the
outstanding voting shares represented at such a meeting, excluding the voting
shares by the acquiring shareholder. This statute was intended, in part, to
protect shareholders of Ohio corporations from coercive tender offers. Under
certain circumstances, interstate mergers and acquisitions involving savings
banks incorporated under Ohio law are permitted by Ohio law. A financial
institution or financial institution holding company with its principal place of
business in another state may acquire a savings and loan association or savings
and loan holding company incorporated under Ohio law if, in the discretion of
the Division, the laws of such other state give an Ohio institution or an Ohio
holding company reciprocal rights.

HOLDING COMPANY REGULATION

      As a financial holding company, Camco has registered with the FRB and is
subject to FRB regulations, examination, supervision and reporting requirements.
Because Camco is a bank holding company that has elected to become a financial
holding company, some of the restrictions on its activities are reduced. Camco's
financial holding company status allows Advantage to associate or have
management interlocks with business organizations engaged in securities
activities. In order to maintain status as a financial holding company,
Advantage must be well capitalized and well managed, and must meet Community
Reinvestment Act obligations. Failure to maintain such standards may ultimately
permit the FRB to take certain enforcement actions against Camco.

      Financial holding companies are permitted to engage in those activities
that are determined by the FRB to be financial in nature, incidental to an
activity that is financial in nature, or complementary to a financial activity
and that do not pose a safety and soundness risk. Activities defined to be
"financial in nature" include, but are not limited to, the following: providing
financial or investment advice; underwriting; dealing in or making markets in
securities; merchant banking, subject to significant limitations; and any
activities previously found by the FRB to be closely related to banking.

      Under FRB policy, a bank holding company is required to act as a source of
financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks. Under this policy,
Camco is expected to commit resources to Advantage in circumstances where it
might not do so absent such policy. In the event of a bank holding company's
bankruptcy, any commitment by the bank holding company to a federal bank
regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank will be assumed
by the bankruptcy trustee and will be entitled to a priority payment.

FEDERAL RESERVE REQUIREMENTS

      FRB regulations currently require banks to maintain reserves of 3% of net
transaction accounts (primarily NOW accounts) up to $47.6 million (subject to an
exemption of up to $7.0 million), and of 10% of net transaction accounts in
excess of $47.6 million. At December 31, 2004, Advantage was in compliance with
its reserve requirements.

                                      18


FEDERAL TAXATION

      Camco and its subsidiaries are each subject to the federal tax laws and
regulations which apply to corporations generally. In addition to the regular
income tax, Camco and its subsidiaries may be subject to the alternative minimum
tax which is imposed at a minimum tax rate of 20% on "alternative minimum
taxable income" (which is the sum of a corporation's regular taxable income,
with certain adjustments, and tax preference items), less any available
exemptions. Such tax preference items include interest on certain tax-exempt
bonds issued after August 7, 1986. In addition, 75% of the amount by which a
corporation's "adjusted current earnings" exceeds its alternative minimum
taxable income computed without regard to this preference item and prior to
reduction by net operating losses, is included in alternative minimum taxable
income. Net operating losses can offset no more than 90% of alternative minimum
taxable income. The alternative minimum tax is imposed to the extent it exceeds
the corporation's regular income tax. Payments of alternative minimum tax may be
used as credits against regular tax liabilities in future years.

      The tax returns of Camco have been audited or closed without audit through
calendar year 2000. In the opinion of management, any examination of open
returns would not result in a deficiency which could have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition of Camco.

      OHIO TAXATION. Camco and Camco Title are subject to the Ohio corporation
franchise tax, which, as applied to them, is a tax measured by both net earnings
and net worth. The rate of tax is the greater of (i) 5.1% on the first $50,000
of computed Ohio taxable income and 8.5% of computed Ohio taxable income in
excess of $50,000 or (ii) .40% times taxable net worth.

      A special litter tax is also applicable to all corporations, including
Camco, subject to the Ohio corporation franchise tax other than "financial
institutions." If the franchise tax is paid on the net income basis, the litter
tax is equal to .11% of the first $50,000 of computed Ohio taxable income and
..22% of computed Ohio taxable income in excess of $50,000. If the franchise tax
is paid on the net worth basis, the litter tax is equal to .014% times taxable
net worth.

      Advantage is a "financial institution" for State of Ohio tax purposes. As
such, it is subject to the Ohio corporate franchise tax on "financial
institutions," which is imposed annually at a rate of 1.3% of its book net worth
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. As a
"financial institution," Advantage is not subject to any tax based upon net
income or net profits imposed by the State of Ohio.

      DELAWARE TAXATION. As a Delaware corporation, Camco is subject to an
annual franchise tax based on the quantity and par value of its authorized
capital stock and its gross assets. As a financial holding company, Camco is
exempt from Delaware corporate income tax.

      KENTUCKY TAXATION. The Commonwealth of Kentucky imposes no income or
franchise taxes on savings institutions. Advantage is subject to an annual ad
valoreum tax which is .1% of Advantage's Kentucky deposit accounts, and
apportioned common stock and retained income, with certain deductions for
amounts borrowed by depositors and securities guaranteed by the U.S. Government
or certain of its agencies.

      WEST VIRGINIA TAXATION. Advantage and Camco Title are subject to a West
Virginia tax on apportioned adjusted net income and a West Virginia franchise
tax on apportioned adjusted capital. The adjusted net income of each is taxed at
a rate of 9.0%. The franchise tax rate is 0.75% of adjusted capital. The
apportionment is based solely on the ratio of gross receipts derived from West
Virginia as compared to gross receipts everywhere.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.

GENERAL

      Since its incorporation in 1970, Camco has evolved into a full-service
provider of financial products to the communities served by Advantage. Utilizing
a common marketing theme based on Camco's commitment to personalized customer
service, Camco and its affiliates have grown from $22.4 million of consolidated
assets in 1970 to $1.1 billion of consolidated assets at December 31, 2004.
Camco's rate of growth is largely attributable to its acquisitions of Marietta
Savings, First Savings, First Bank for Savings, Germantown Federal, Westwood
Homestead, Columbia Savings and The Citizens Bank of London, and its continued
expansion of product lines from the limited deposit and loan offerings which the
Bank could offer in the heavily regulated environment of the 1970s to the wider
array of financial service products that commercial banks traditionally offer.
Additionally, Camco has enhanced its operational growth, to a lesser extent, by
chartering a title insurance agency.

      Management believes that continued success in the financial services
industry will be achieved by those institutions with a rigorous dedication to
building value-added customer-oriented organizations. Toward this end, each of
the Bank's divisions have the ability to make local decisions for customer
contacts and services, however back-office operations are consolidated and
centralized. Based on consumer preferences, the Bank's management designs
financial service products with a view towards differentiating each of the
constituent divisions from its competition. Management believes that the Bank
divisions' ability to rapidly adapt to consumer needs and preferences is
essential to them as community-based financial institutions competing against
the larger regional and money-center bank holding companies.

      Camco's profitability depends primarily on its level of net interest
income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning
assets, principally loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities,
and interest expense on deposit accounts and borrowings. In recent years,
Camco's operations have also been heavily influenced by its level of other
income, including mortgage banking income and other fee income. Camco's
operations are also affected by general, administrative and other expenses,
including employee compensation and benefits, occupancy expense, data
processing, franchise taxes, advertising, other operating expenses and federal
income tax expense.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

      Certain statements contained in this report that are not historical facts
are forward looking statements that are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties. When used herein, the terms "anticipates," "plans," "expects,"
"believes," and similar expressions as they relate to Camco or its management
are intended to identify such forward looking statements. Camco's actual
results, performance or achievements may materially differ from those expressed
or implied in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties that could
cause or contribute to such material differences include, but are not limited
to, general economic conditions, interest rate environment, competitive
conditions in the financial services industry, changes in law, governmental
policies and regulations, and rapidly changing technology affecting financial
services.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

      This report includes one or more non-GAAP financial measures within the
meaning of Regulation G. With respect to each, Camco has disclosed the most
directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance
with GAAP and reconciled the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure
and the most comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP.

      Camco believes that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures in
this report assist management and investors to compare results period-to-period
in a more meaningful and consistent manner and provide a better measure of
results for Camco's ongoing operations.

                                       25


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations," as well as disclosures found elsewhere in this annual report,
are based upon Camco's consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America ("US GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires
Camco to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Several factors are considered in
determining whether or not a policy is critical in the preparation of financial
statements. These factors include, among other things, whether the estimates are
significant to the financial statements, the nature of the estimates, the
ability to readily validate the estimates with other information including third
parties or available prices, and sensitivity of the estimates to changes in
economic conditions and whether alternative accounting methods may be utilized
under US GAAP.

      Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change
in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses,
the valuation of mortgage servicing rights and goodwill impairment. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

      The procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses
reflect our evaluation of credit risk after careful consideration of all
information available to us. In developing this assessment, we must rely on
estimates and exercise judgment regarding matters where the ultimate outcome is
unknown such as economic factors, developments affecting companies in specific
industries and issues with respect to single borrowers. Depending on changes in
circumstances, future assessments of credit risk may yield materially different
results, which may require an increase or a decrease in the allowance for loan
losses.

      The allowance is regularly reviewed by management to determine whether the
amount is considered adequate to absorb probable losses. This evaluation
includes specific loss estimates on certain individually reviewed loans,
statistical loss estimates for loan pools that are based on historical loss
experience, and general loss estimates that are based upon the size, quality,
and concentration characteristics of the various loan portfolios, adverse
situations that may affect a borrower's ability to repay, and current economic
and industry conditions. Also considered as part of that judgment is a review of
the Bank's trends in delinquencies and loan losses, as well as trends in
delinquencies and losses for the region and nationally, and economic factors.

      The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate
by management to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
Management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is an estimate based on
management's current judgment about the credit quality of the loan portfolio.
While management strives to reflect all known risk factors in its evaluations,
judgment errors may occur.

      During its audit, Camco's accountants identified a lack of comprehensive
procedural documentation concerning the asset classification of specific loans
in accordance with FAS No. 114. Management has addressed this issue as discussed
in the Management Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS

      To determine the fair value of its mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs") each
reporting quarter, Advantage transmits information to a third party provider,
representing individual loan information in each pooling period accompanied by
escrow amounts. The third party then evaluates the possible impairment of MSRs
as described below.

      Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when loans are sold
with servicing retained. A pooling methodology to the servicing valuation, in
which loans with similar characteristics are "pooled" together, is applied for
valuation purposes. Once pooled, each grouping of loans is evaluated on a
discounted earnings basis to determine the present value of future earnings that
a purchaser could expect to realize from the portfolio. Earnings are projected
from a variety of sources including loan service fees, interest earned on float,
net interest earned on escrow balances,

                                       26


miscellaneous income and costs to service the loans. The present value of future
earnings is the estimated market value for the pool, calculated using consensus
assumptions that a third party purchaser would utilize in evaluating a potential
acquisition of the servicing. Events that may significantly affect the estimates
used are changes in interest rates and the related impact on mortgage loan
prepayment speeds and the payment performance of the underlying loans. The
interest rate for float, which is supplied by management, takes into
consideration the investment portfolio average yield as well as current short
duration investment yields. Management believes this methodology provides a
reasonable estimate. Mortgage loan prepayment speeds are calculated by the third
party provider utilizing the Economic Outlook as published by the Office of
Chief Economist of Freddie Mac in estimating prepayment speeds and provides a
specific scenario with each evaluation. Based on the assumptions discussed,
pre-tax projections are prepared for each pool of loans serviced. These earning
figures approximate the cash flow that could be received from the servicing
portfolio. Valuation results are presented quarterly to management. At that
time, management reviews the information and mortgage servicing rights are
marked to lower of amortized cost or market for the current quarter.

GOODWILL

      We have developed procedures to test goodwill for impairment on an annual
basis using June 30 financial information. This testing procedure is outsourced
to a third party that evaluates possible impairment based on the following:

      The test involves assigning tangible assets and liabilities, identified
intangible assets and goodwill to reporting units and comparing the fair value
of each reporting unit to its carrying value including goodwill. The value is
determined assuming a freely negotiated transaction between a willing buyer and
a willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or sell and both
having reasonable knowledge of relevant facts. Accordingly, to derive the fair
value of the reporting unit, the following common approaches to valuing business
combination transactions involving financial institutions are utilized by a
third party selected by Camco: (1) the comparable transactions approach -
specifically based on earnings, book, assets and deposit premium multiples
received in recent sales of comparable thrift franchises; and (2) the discounted
cash flow approach. The application of these valuation techniques takes into
account the reporting unit's operating history, the current market environment
and future prospects. As of the most recent quarter, the only reporting unit
carrying goodwill is the Bank.

      If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount,
goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and no second step is
required. If not, a second test is required to measure the amount of goodwill
impairment. The second test of the overall goodwill impairment compares the
implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of
the goodwill. The impairment loss shall equal the excess of carrying value over
fair value.

      After each testing period, the third party compiles a summary of the test
that is then provided to the Audit Committee for review. As of the most recent
testing date, June 30, 2004, the Audit Committee was informed that the fair
value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount.

SUMMARY

      Management believes the accounting estimates related to the allowance for
loan losses, the capitalization, amortization, and valuation of mortgage
servicing rights and the goodwill impairment test are "critical accounting
estimates" because: (1) the estimates are highly susceptible to change from
period to period because they require management to make assumptions concerning
the changes in the types and volumes of the portfolios, rates of future
prepayments, and anticipated economic conditions, and (2) the impact of
recognizing an impairment or loan loss could have a material effect on Camco's
assets reported on the balance sheet as well as its net earnings. Management has
discussed the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates
with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee has
reviewed Camco's disclosures relating to such matters in the quarterly
Management's Discussion and Analysis.

                                       27


DISCUSSION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION CHANGES FROM DECEMBER 31, 2003 TO DECEMBER 31,
2004

      At December 31, 2004, Camco's consolidated assets totaled $1.1 billion, an
increase of $26.7 million, or 2.6%, from the December 31, 2003 total. The
increase in total assets was primarily due to the acquisition of London in
August 2004, which was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
The acquisition resulted in net asset growth of approximately $54.4 million
which was funded principally by an increase of $25.0 million in advances from
the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB"). In December of 2004, Advantage sold its
Ashland division, consisting of two branches, which resulted in a premium of
10.21% on deposits. While all deposits were sold in the Ashland division sale,
Camco retained loan origination capabilities in the Huntington, West Virginia
market. The sale included $42.6 million in loans and $63.7 million of deposits.
The Ashland branch sale was funded by a sale of approximately $15.2 million in
loans.

      Cash and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions totaled
$42.9 million at December 31, 2004, a decrease of $10.8 million, or 20.1%, from
December 31, 2003 levels. Investment securities totaled $24.0 million at
December 31, 2004, a decrease of $4.2 million, or 14.8%, from the total at
December 31, 2003. Investment securities purchases were comprised of $19.0
million of intermediate and short-term issuances of treasury and agency
securities, with an average yield of 3.13%. Some of the securities purchased
contained call features. Such purchases were offset by maturities of $21.1
million and sales of $1.6 million during the year.

      Mortgage-backed securities totaled $84.5 million at December 31, 2004, a
decrease of $1.2 million, or 1.3%, from December 31, 2003. Mortgage-backed
securities purchases totaled $43.3 million, while principal repayments totaled
$30.6 million and sales totaled $13.1 million during the year ended December 31,
2004. Purchases of mortgage-backed securities during the year were comprised
primarily of government agency mortgage-backed securities and collateralized
mortgage obligations yielding 3.95%.

      Loans receivable and loans held for sale totaled $836.7 million at
December 31, 2004, an increase of $31.6 million, or 3.9%, over the total at
December 31, 2003. The increase resulted primarily from the acquisition of
London, accounting for an increase of $49.1 million in loans and loan
disbursements and purchases totaling $363.8 million, which were substantially
offset by loan sales of $160.5 million, including $42.6 million of sales
relating to the sale of the Ashland division and principal repayments of $212.5
million. Loan origination volume, including purchases of loans, was lower in
2004 than 2003 by $255.7 million, or 41.3%, which was primarily attributable to
the decline in refinancing activity. As interest rates in the economy have begun
to rise, consumer preference is moving towards adjustable-rate mortgage loans to
fund purchases. Camco has typically held adjustable-rate mortgage loans in its
portfolio as part of its strategy to maintain its asset-sensitive interest rate
risk position. Loan originations during the twelve-month period ended December
31, 2004, were comprised primarily of $209.2 million of loans secured by one- to
four-family residential real estate, $102.6 million in consumer and other loans
and $102.0 million in loans secured by commercial real estate. Management will
continue to expand its consumer and commercial real estate lending in future
periods as a means of increasing the yield on its loan portfolio.

      The allowance for loan losses totaled $6.5 million and $5.6 million at
December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, representing 66.1% and 41.5% of
nonperforming loans at those dates. Nonperforming loans (90 days or more
delinquent plus nonaccrual loans) totaled $9.8 million and $13.6 million at
December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, constituting 1.17% and
1.69% of total net loans, including loans held for sale, at those dates. At
December 31, 2004, nonperforming loans were comprised of $6.7 million of loans
secured by one- to four-family residential real estate, $2.1 million of loans
secured by multi-family, nonresidential real estate and commercial loans and
$1.0 million of consumer and other loans. Although management believes that its
allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2004 is adequate based upon the
available facts and circumstances, there can be no assurance that additions to
such allowance will not be necessary in future periods, which could adversely
affect Camco's results of operations.

      Deposits totaled $667.8 million at December 31, 2004, a decrease of $3.5
million, or .5%, from December 31, 2003 levels. The decrease resulted primarily
from the sale of Ashland division deposits totaling $63.7 million partially
offset by $45.2 million increase from the London acquisition. The $15.0 million
deposit portfolio growth resulted

                                       28


primarily from the increase of deposits from state and local government agencies
and management's continuing efforts to achieve a moderate rate of growth through
advertising and pricing strategies.

      Advances from the FHLB increased by $32.6 million, or 12.4%, to a total of
$295.3 million at December 31, 2004. The increase was due primarily to equity
leveraging transactions of $18.0 million and $18.9 million in fees incurred for
the restructuring of the FHLB borrowings.

      In the fourth quarter of 2004, Advantage restructured $144.1 million of
its FHLB borrowings having an average term of 5.5 years and an average fixed
rate of 6.25%, replacing them with fixed-rate advances having a weighted-average
rate of approximately 3.68% at December 31, 2004. The prepayment fee incurred
was $12.5 million on an after-tax basis, but management believes that the
positive after-tax earnings impact in 2005 could approach $2.2 million or $.30
per share in 2005. The transaction positions itself well in our balance sheet as
a result of continued efforts towards shorter duration assets generated from
commercial/commercial real estate and consumer loans.

      Stockholders' equity totaled $89.3 million at December 31, 2004, a $3.2
million, or 3.5%, decrease from December 31, 2003. The decrease resulted
primarily from dividends of $4.4 million, a net loss of $2.5 million and a
$469,000 decrease in the unrealized gains on available for sale securities,
which were partially offset by the issuance of $3.6 million in common stock to
shareholders of London and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of
$552,000.

      Camco and the Bank are required to maintain minimum regulatory capital
pursuant to federal regulations. During 2004, management was notified by its
primary regulators that Advantage was categorized as well-capitalized under the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. At December 31, 2004, the
regulatory capital of Camco and the Bank exceeded all regulatory capital
requirements.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND
DECEMBER 31, 2003

      GENERAL. Camco's net loss for the year ended December 31, 2004, totaled
$2.5 million, a decrease of $9.4 million, or 137.0%, from the $6.9 million of
net earnings reported in 2003. The decrease in earnings was primarily
attributable to a one-time charge of $18.9 million in pre-tax expense associated
with the restructuring of a portion of the Bank's FHLB borrowings and a $2.8
million decrease in gain on sale of loans, which were partially offset by a $6.1
million gain due to the sale of the Ashland division and a $4.7 million decrease
in the provision for federal income taxes.

      In December 2004 Camco announced the restructuring of $144.1 million in
convertible fixed rate borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The early
prepayment of the debt resulted in a penalty charge of $18.9 million before tax,
or $12.5 million after-tax. The convertible advances had a weighted average
interest rate of 6.25% and an average term to maturity of approximately 5.61
years. The advances were replaced with maturities ranging up to five years. The
weighted average cost on the restructured borrowings was 3.59%.

      The impact of the restructuring is estimated to reduce interest expense
for the Corporation by over $3.33 million pre-tax in 2005, or $2.2 million
after-tax basis. This anticipated decrease in interest bearing liabilities
should increase earnings per share for the Corporation by approximately $.30 in
2005.

      In December, 2004 Camco sold its Ashland Division which included $63.7
million in deposits and $42.6 million in loans in the Ashland market as well as
the Ashland and Summit, Kentucky facilities. This transaction was based on a
decision to redirect resources and management attention to other markets that
drive the execution of our long term strategic plan. Our branch strategy
involves narrowing our geographic footprint, building a more efficient branch
network and improving long term shareholder value.

      NET INTEREST INCOME. Total interest income for the year ended December 31,
2004, amounted to $52.9 million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 3.5%, compared
to 2003, generally reflecting the effects of a decrease of 26 basis points in
the average yield, from 5.43% in 2003 to 5.17% in 2004, offset partially by a
$12.7 million, or 1.3%, increase in the average balance of interest-earning
assets outstanding year to year.

                                       29


      Interest income on loans totaled $46.9 million for the year ended December
31, 2004, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 2.2%, from the comparable 2003 total.
The decrease resulted primarily from a 58 basis point decrease in the average
yield, from 6.14% in 2003, to 5.56% in 2004, offset partially by a $63.5
million, or 8.1%, increase in the average balance of loans outstanding year to
year. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities totaled $3.0 million for the
year ended December 31, 2004, a $423,000, or 12.3%, decrease from the 2003
period. The decrease was due primarily to a $23.5 million, or 20.8%, decrease in
the average balance outstanding, partially offset by a 33 basis point increase
in the average yield, to 3.36% in 2004. Interest income on investment securities
decreased by $495,000, or 39.1%, due primarily to a $10.9 million decrease in
the average balance outstanding year to year, coupled with a 48 basis point
decline in the average yield, to 2.86% in 2004. Interest income on other
interest-earning assets increased by $41,000, or 1.9%, due primarily to an
increase in the yield of 80 basis points, to 3.59% in 2004, offset partially by
a decrease of $16.3 million, or 20.9%, in the average balance outstanding year
to year.

      Interest expense on deposits totaled $13.9 million for the year ended
December 31, 2004, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 13.0%, compared to the year
ended December 31, 2003, due primarily to a 37 basis point decrease in the
average cost of deposits, to 2.09% for 2004, partially offset by a $13.8
million, or 2.1%, increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits
outstanding year to year. Interest expense on borrowings totaled $13.6 million
for the year ended December 31, 2004, a decrease of $1.6, or 10.7%, from 2003.
The decrease resulted primarily from a 67 basis point decrease in the average
rate to 4.89% in 2004, partially offset by a $4.4 million, or 1.6%, increase in
the average balance outstanding year to year.

      As a result of the foregoing changes in interest income and interest
expense, net interest income increased by $1.8 million, or 7.6%, to a total of
$25.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The interest rate spread
increased to approximately 2.26% at December 31, 2004, from 2.06% at December
31, 2003, while the net interest margin increased to approximately 2.49% for the
year ended December 31, 2004, compared to 2.34% for the 2003 period.

      PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS. A provision for losses on loans is charged
to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered
appropriate by management based on historical experience, the volume and type of
lending conducted by the Bank, the status of past due principal and interest
payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to
the Bank's market areas, and other factors related to the collectibility of the
Bank's loan portfolio. Based upon an analysis of these factors, management
recorded a provision for losses on loans totaling $1.6 million for the year
ended December 31, 2004, an increase of $174,000, or 12.0%, over the provision
recorded in 2003. The provision was predicated primarily on the overall increase
in the loan portfolio, including the increased percentage of loans secured by
nonresidential real estate within the portfolio and an increase in the level of
impaired loans and loan charge-offs year to year. For 2005, we believe the
provision will continue to grow as we anticipate changing our loan mix by
increasing the percentage of nonresidential commercial loans and consumer loans
to total loans. Management believes nonperforming loans are adequately
collateralized or reserved for, however, there can be no assurance that the loan
loss allowance will be adequate to absorb losses on known nonperforming assets
or that the allowance will be adequate to cover losses on nonperforming loans in
the future.

      OTHER INCOME. Other income totaled $13.7 million for the year ended
December 31, 2004, an increase of $2.3 million, or 20.1%, compared to 2003. The
increase in other income was primarily attributable to the sale of our Ashland,
Kentucky banking division which resulted in a pretax gain of $6.1 million.
Excluding the sale of the Ashland banking division, other income would have
decreased from $11.4 million in 2003 to $7.6 million in 2004. This decrease of
$3.8 million was primarily attributable to a $2.8 million or 77.3% decrease in
gain on the sale of loans, as a result of fewer loans being sold into the
secondary market, as well as a reduction of $818,000 or 51.3% in our title
agency revenue, also due to lower residential loan production levels.

      The decrease in gain on sale of loans was due primarily to a decrease in
the volume of loans sold of $161.1 million, or 57.8%, from the volume of loans
sold in 2003. During 2004, the Bank recorded MSR's on new loan sales totaling
$1.6 million and amortization of MSR's totaling $1.2 million, which resulted in
net revenue item of $402,000. During 2003, the Bank recorded MSR's on new loan
sales totaling $3.5 million and amortization of MSR's totaling $2.9 million,
which resulted in net revenue of $543,000.

                                       30


      GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER EXPENSE. General, administrative and
other expense totaled $41.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, an
increase of $18.0 million, or 76.1%, compared to 2003. The increase was due
primarily to the $18.9 million prepayment fee associated with the restructuring
of a portion of the Bank's FHLB borrowings and a decrease of $1.3 million, or
36.6%, in deferred compensation (SFAS No. 91), offset partially by a decrease of
$713,000 in employee compensation and benefits and a $393,000 or 10.4% decrease
in occupancy and equipment expenses. The decrease in deferred compensation
relates to (SFAS No. 91) and the decline in residential loan production. The
decrease in employee compensation and benefits is due to lower incentives and
commissions on reduced loan production from prior periods. The decrease in
occupancy and equipment was due to management's more efficient utilization of
the current infrastructure and continuing capitalization on past investments in
technology.

      FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Federal income tax credits totaled $1.7 million for
the year ended December 31, 2004, a decrease of $4.7 million, or 154.4%,
compared to the provision recorded in 2003. This decrease was primarily
attributable to a $4.2 million net loss before federal income tax credits. The
effective rate of tax (benefits) amounted to (39.6)% and 30.8% for the years
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The tax-exempt character of
earnings on bank-owned life insurance is the principal difference between the
effective rate of tax (benefits) and the statutory corporate tax rate for the
years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003 AND
DECEMBER 31, 2002

      GENERAL. Camco's net operating earnings for the year ended December 31,
2003, totaled $6.9 million, a decrease of $3.1 million, or 31.5%, from the $10.0
million of net earnings reported in 2002. The decrease in earnings was primarily
attributable to a $3.8 million decrease in net interest income, a one-time
charge of $1.3 million in pre-tax expense associated with the restructuring of a
portion of the Bank's FHLB borrowings, an increase in the provision for losses
on loans of $277,000 and an $834,000 increase in general, administrative and
other expense, which were partially offset by an increase of $1.3 million in
other income and a $1.8 million decrease in the provision for federal income
taxes.

      NET INTEREST INCOME. Total interest income for the year ended December 31,
2003, amounted to $54.9 million, a decrease of $11.1 million, or 16.9%, compared
to 2002, generally reflecting the effects of a decrease of 96 basis points in
the average yield, from 6.39% in 2002 to 5.43% in 2003, and a $22.0 million, or
2.1%, decrease in the average balance of interest-earning assets outstanding
year to year.

      Interest income on loans totaled $48.0 million for the year ended December
31, 2003, a decrease of $9.5 million, or 16.5%, from the comparable 2002 total.
The decrease resulted primarily from a $32.4 million, or 4.0%, decrease in the
average balance outstanding and a 93 basis point decrease in the average yield,
to 6.14% in 2003. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities totaled $3.4
million for the year ended December 31, 2003, a $1.1 million, or 24.0%, decrease
from the 2002 period. The decrease was due primarily to a 149 basis point
decrease in the average yield, to 3.03% in 2003, which was partially offset by a
$13.2 million, or 13.2%, increase in the average balance outstanding. Interest
income on investment securities decreased by $278,000, or 18.0%, due primarily
to a 121 basis point decline in the average yield, to 3.34% in 2003, which was
partially offset by a $3.9 million increase in the average balance outstanding
year to year. Interest income on other interest-earning assets decreased by
$269,000, or 11.0%, due primarily to a decrease in the yield of 9 basis points,
to 2.79% in 2003, and a $6.8 million, or 8.0%, decrease in the average balance
outstanding year to year.

      Interest expense on deposits totaled $16.0 million for the year ended
December 31, 2003, a decrease of $7.0 million, or 30.5%, compared to the year
ended December 31, 2002, due primarily to a 94 basis point decrease in the
average cost of deposits, to 2.46% for 2003, and a $25.1 million, or 3.7%,
decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits outstanding year to
year. Interest expense on borrowings totaled $15.2 million for the year ended
December 31, 2003, a decrease of $296,000, or 1.9%, from 2002. The decrease
resulted primarily from a 27 basis point decrease in the average rate, to 5.56%
in 2003, partially offset by a $7.5 million, or 2.8%, increase in the average
balance outstanding year to year. Decreases in the level of average yields on
interest-earning assets and average cost of interest-bearing liabilities were
due primarily to the overall decrease in interest rates in the economy during
2002 and 2003.

                                       31


      As a result of the foregoing changes in interest income and interest
expense, net interest income decreased by $3.8 million, or 13.9%, to a total of
$23.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The interest rate spread
decreased to approximately 2.06% at December 31, 2003, from 2.30% at December
31, 2002, while the net interest margin decreased to approximately 2.34% for the
year ended December 31, 2003, compared to 2.66% for the 2002 period.

      PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS. A provision for losses on loans is charged
to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered
appropriate by management based on historical experience, the volume and type of
lending conducted by the Bank, the status of past due principal and interest
payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to
the Bank's market areas, and other factors related to the collectibility of the
Bank's loan portfolio. Based upon an analysis of these factors, management
recorded a provision for losses on loans totaling $1.4 million for the year
ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $277,000, or 23.7%, over the provision
recorded in 2002. The provision was predicated primarily on the overall increase
in the loan portfolio, including the increased percentage of loans secured by
commercial real estate within the loan portfolio and an increase in the level of
loan charge-offs year to year. For 2004, we believe the provision will continue
to grow as we anticipate changing our loan mix by increasing the percentage of
commercial loans and consumer loans to total loans. Management believes all
nonperforming loans are adequately collateralized, however, there can be no
assurance that the loan loss allowance will be adequate to absorb losses on
known nonperforming assets or that the allowance will be adequate to cover
losses on nonperforming assets in the future.

      OTHER INCOME. Other income totaled $11.4 million for the year ended
December 31, 2003, an increase of $1.3 million, or 13.0%, compared to 2002. The
increase in other income was primarily attributable to an $810,000 increase in
gain on sale of investment and mortgage-backed securities, an increase of
$337,000, or 26.8%, in title fees, a combined increase of $96,000 in gains on
sale of premises and equipment and real estate acquired through foreclosure, and
an overall increase of $76,000, or 1.3%, in mortgage-banking related income,
partially offset by a $151,000, or 7.1%, decrease in late charges, rent and
other income. The increase in title fees was due primarily to an increase in
production related to the low interest rate environment.

      The increase in mortgage-banking income was comprised of an $840,000, or
30.4%, increase in gain on sale of loans, a $63,000, or 4.1%, increase in loan
servicing fees and a net decrease in the valuation of mortgage servicing rights
of $827,000, or 60.4%. The increase in gain on sale of loans was due primarily
to an increase in the volume of loans sold of $38.5 million, or 16.0%, over the
volume of loans sold in 2002. During 2003, the Bank recorded mortgage servicing
rights on new loan sales totaling $3.5 million and amortization of mortgage
servicing rights totaling $2.9 million, which resulted in a net income item of
$543,000. During 2002, the Bank recorded mortgage servicing rights on new loan
sales totaling $2.7 million, amortization of mortgage servicing rights totaling
$2.1 million and recapture of an impairment charge of $640,000, all of which
resulted in a net revenue item of $1.4 million.

      GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND OTHER EXPENSE. General, administrative and
other expense totaled $23.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003, an
increase of $2.1 million, or 9.9%, compared to 2002. The increase was due
primarily to the $1.3 million pre-payment fee associated with the restructuring
of a portion of the Bank's FHLB borrowings and an increase of $348,000, or 3.4%,
in employee compensation and benefits, a $349,000 or 42.5% increase in franchise
taxes, a $324,000, or 9.4%, increase in occupancy and equipment and the absence
of $112,000 related to the reversal of the restructuring charge recognized in
2001. The increase in employee compensation and benefits was due primarily to an
increase in incentive compensation and health insurance costs, as well as normal
merit increases, which were partially offset by an increase in deferred loan
origination costs related to the increase in lending volume year to year. The
increase in franchise tax expense reflects the effects of refund claims recorded
in 2002. The increase in occupancy and equipment was due primarily to an
increase in office repairs and maintenance expenses, as well as costs associated
with the new Dover office location.

      FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. The provision for federal income taxes totaled $3.1
million for the year ended December 31, 2003, a decrease of $1.8 million, or
36.5%, compared to the provision recorded in 2002. This decrease was primarily
attributable to a $4.9 million, or 33.1%, decrease in pre-tax earnings and the
non-taxable proceeds from a life insurance policy. The effective tax rate
amounted to 30.8% and 32.4% for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively.

RATE/VOLUME TABLE

The following table describes the extent to which changes in interest rates and
changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities have affected Camco's interest income and expense during the periods
indicated. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in
volume (change in volume multiplied by prior year rate), (ii) changes in rate
(change in rate multiplied by prior year volume) and (iii) total changes in rate
and volume.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

      The objective of the Bank's asset/liability management function is to
maintain consistent growth in net interest income within the Bank's policy
limits. This objective is accomplished through management of the Bank's balance
sheet composition, liquidity, and interest rate risk exposures arising from
changing economic conditions, interest rates and customer preferences.

      The goal of liquidity management is to provide adequate funds to meet
changes in loan demand or unexpected deposit withdrawals. This is accomplished
by maintaining liquid assets in the form of investment securities, maintaining
sufficient unused borrowing capacity and achieving consistent growth in core
deposits.

      Management considers interest rate risk the Bank's most significant market
risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest
income due to changes in interest rates. Consistency of the Bank's net interest
income is largely dependent upon the effective management of interest rate risk.

      To identify and manage its interest rate risk, the Bank employs an
earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing
interest rates. The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing
characteristics and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the effect
of changing interest rates on the prepayment rates of certain assets and
liabilities. The model also includes senior management projections for activity
levels in each of the product lines offered by the Bank. Assumptions based on
the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in
interest rates are also incorporated into the model. Assumptions are inherently
uncertain and the measurement of net interest income or the impact of rate
fluctuations on net interest income cannot be precisely predicted. Actual
results may differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and
frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and
management strategies.

      The Bank's Asset/Liability Management Committee ("ALCO"), which includes
senior management representatives and reports to the Bank's Board of Directors,
monitors and manages interest rate risk within Board-approved policy limits. The
Bank's current interest rate risk position is determined by measuring the
anticipated change in net interest income over a 12 month horizon assuming a 200
basis point (bp) instantaneous and parallel shift (linear) increase or decrease
in all interest rates. Given the federal funds rate of 2.25% at December 31,
2004, a linear 100bp decrease was modeled in the estimated earnings sensitivity
profile in place of the linear 200bp decrease in accordance with the Bank's
interest rate risk policy. Current policy limits this exposure to plus or minus
25% of net interest income for a 12-month horizon.

      The following table shows the Bank's estimated earnings sensitivity
profile as of December 31, 2004:



   CHANGE IN         PERCENTAGE CHANGE IN
INTEREST RATES        NET INTEREST INCOME
(BASIS POINTS)             12 MONTHS
- --------------       --------------------
                  
          +200                       2.33%
          -100                      (5.37)%


      Given a 200bp linear increase in the yield curve used in the simulation
model, it is estimated net interest income for the Bank would increase by 2.3%
over one year. A 100bp linear decrease in interest rates would decrease net
interest income by 5.4% over one year. All of these estimated changes in net
interest income are within the policy guidelines established by the Board of
Directors. Management does not expect any significant adverse effect on net
interest income in 2005 based on the composition of the portfolio and
anticipated upward trends in rates.

      In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations and to
manage liquidity, the Bank has developed sale procedures for several types of
interest-sensitive assets. Generally, all long-term, fixed-rate single family
residential mortgage loans underwritten according to Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation ("FHLMC") or Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA")
guidelines are sold for cash upon origination. A total of $117.9 million and
$279.0 million of such loans were sold to the FHLMC, FNMA and other parties
during 2004 and 2003, respectively.

                                       35


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Camco, like other financial institutions, is required under applicable federal
regulations to maintain sufficient funds to meet deposit withdrawals, loan
commitments and expenses. Liquid assets consist of cash and interest-bearing
deposits in other financial institutions, investments and mortgage-backed
securities. Management monitors and assesses liquidity needs daily in order to
meet deposit withdrawals, loan commitments and expenses.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Bank's obligations and
commitments to make future payments under contract as of December 31, 2004.



                                                                   PAYMENTS DUE BY PERIOD

(1) Fully secured asset borrowings totaling $40.0 million are not included.

Advantage Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet
its current loan commitments. Based upon historical deposit flow data, the
Bank's competitive pricing in its market and management's experience, management
believes that a significant portion of maturing certificates of deposit will
remain with the Bank.

The Bank engages in off-balance sheet credit-related activities that could
require Advantage to make cash payments in the event that specified future
events occur. The contractual amounts of these activities represent the maximum
exposure to the Bank. However, certain off-balance sheet commitments are
expected to expire or be only partially used; therefore, the total amount of
commitments does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. These
off-balance sheet activities are necessary to meet the financing needs of the
Bank's customers.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of Advantage's
management strategy. In the event that the Bank should require funds beyond its
ability to generate them internally, additional funds are available through the
use of FHLB advances, brokered deposits, and through the sales of loans and/or
securities.

State statutes impose certain limitations on the payment of dividends and other
capital distributions by banks. Generally, absent approval of the Superintendent
of Banks, such statutes limit dividend and capital distributions to earnings of
the current and two preceding years. As a result, Camco will need regulatory
approval for dividend distributions in 2005. However, management is of the
opinion that such approval will not be unreasonably withheld given the Bank's
current well-capitalized classification.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

Management Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in
Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The
Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2004. In making this assessment,
management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control -- Integrated
Framework.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

During the course of its audit, Grant Thornton LLP advised management and the
Audit Committee that it had identified a control deficiency, which constituted a
material weakness in the Company's internal control over financial reporting. A
material weakness is a significant deficiency that results in there being more
than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim
financials statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by
employees in the normal course of their assigned functions. As a result,
management of the Company concluded that the Company's internal control over
financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2004 because of the
material weakness described below. The material weakness did not result in an
adjustment to the financial statements.

The material weakness identified relates to a lack of comprehensive procedural
documentation concerning the identification and valuation of specific loans in
accordance with FAS No. 114. Management, with the oversight of the Audit
Committee, has been aggressively addressing this issue and is committed to
effectively remediate this weakness. The Company has completed the following
remediation measures:

      -     Amplified and communicated to appropriate Company employees a
            detailed written policy that clearly documents in detail the
            Company's process for identifying and evaluating non-homogeneous
            loans under FAS No. 114. The procedures clearly require that once a
            loan meets review criteria and is determined to have a probable
            loss, such loan will be deemed impaired and the impairment will be
            valued via reference to an independent appraisal.

      -     Augmented procedures to assure that adequate evidence exists to
            support all decisions made regarding classification of individual,
            reviewed loans.

Management has discussed these corrective actions with the Audit Committee and
Grant Thornton and, as of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K,
management believes the actions outlined above have corrected the deficiencies
in internal controls that are considered to be a material weakness.

Grant Thornton LLP has issued an attestation report on management's assessment
of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. That report appears
on page 38.

             REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and
Shareholders of Camco Financial Corporation

We have audited management's assessment, included in the accompanying Management
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, that Camco Financial
Corporation (the Corporation) did not maintain effective internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, because of the effect of the
material weakness identified in management's assessment, based on criteria
established in Internal Control -- Integrated Framework issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Corporation's
management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over
financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal
control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
management's assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation's
internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective
internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material
respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over
financial reporting, evaluating management's assessment, testing and evaluating
the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such
other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting
and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's
internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of
the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control
deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not
be prevented or detected. The following material weakness has been identified
and included in management's assessment. The Corporation lacked comprehensive
documentation concerning the identification and valuation of specific loans in
accordance with FAS No. 114. This material weakness was considered in
determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit
of the 2004 consolidated financial statements, and this report does not affect
our report dated March 10, 2005, on those financial statements.

                                       38


In our opinion, management's assessment that the Corporation did not maintain
effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, is
fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the control criteria
established in Internal Control -- Integrated Framework issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Also in our opinion,
because of the effect of the material weakness described above on the
achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Corporation has not
maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December
31, 2004, based on Internal Control -- Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on management's
statement that they have implemented remediation measures sufficient to correct
the deficiency in internal control that is considered to be a material weakness.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.

             REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors
Camco Financial Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition
of Camco Financial Corporation as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss),
stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three year
period ended December 31, 2004. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Camco Financial
Corporation as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the consolidated results of
its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three year period
ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Camco Financial
Corporation's control over financial reporting at December 31, 2004 based on
criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission and our
report dated March 10, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion as to management's
assessment that the Corporation did not maintain effective control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on control criteria issued by
COSO.

                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                        December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Camco Financial Corporation ("Camco" or the "Corporation") is a financial
      holding company whose business activities are limited primarily to holding
      the common stock of Advantage Bank ("Advantage" or the "Bank") and Camco
      Title Insurance Agency ("Camco Title") and, prior to October 2003, one
      second tier subsidiary, Camco Mortgage Corporation. In October 2003, Camco
      Mortgage Corporation was dissolved and its operations became a part of the
      Bank. The Corporation's results of operations are economically dependent
      upon the results of Advantage's operations. Advantage conducts a general
      banking business within Ohio, West Virginia and northern Kentucky which
      consists of attracting deposits from the general public and applying those
      funds to the origination of loans for residential, consumer and
      nonresidential purposes. Advantage's profitability is significantly
      dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between interest
      income generated from interest-earning assets (i.e. loans and investments)
      and the interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities (i.e.
      customer deposits and borrowed funds). Net interest income is affected by
      the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
      liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level
      of interest rates paid or received by Advantage can be significantly
      influenced by a number of factors, such as governmental monetary policy,
      that are outside of management's control.

      During 2004, Camco's Board of Directors approved a business combination
      that was completed in August 2004, whereby London Financial Corporation
      ("London Financial") was merged with and into Camco. Coincident with the
      merger between Camco and London Financial, Advantage was merged with and
      into The Citizens Savings Bank of London, London Financial's wholly-owned
      subsidiary ("Citizens"). The resulting financial institution was a
      state-chartered commercial bank that was renamed Advantage Bank. The
      business combination was accounted for using the purchase method of
      accounting. Accordingly, the 2004 consolidated financial statements herein
      include the accounts of Citizens only from the August 20, 2004
      consummation date forward.

      The consolidated financial information presented herein has been prepared
      in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
      States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and general accounting practices within
      the financial services industry. In preparing financial statements in
      accordance with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and
      assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
      the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
      financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting
      period. Actual results could differ from such estimates.

      The following is a summary of the Corporation's significant accounting
      policies which have been consistently applied in the preparation of the
      accompanying consolidated financial statements.

      1. Principles of Consolidation

      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
      Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant
      intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

                                       47


                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

                        December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

      2. Investment Securities and Mortgage-Backed Securities

      The Corporation accounts for investment and mortgage-backed securities in
      accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
      115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."
      SFAS No. 115 requires that investments be categorized as held to maturity,
      trading, or available for sale. Securities classified as held to maturity
      are carried at cost only if the Corporation has the positive intent and
      ability to hold these securities to maturity. Securities designated as
      available for sale are carried at fair value with resulting unrealized
      gains or losses recorded to stockholders' equity. Investment and
      mortgage-backed securities are classified as held to maturity or available
      for sale upon acquisition. Realized gains and losses on sales of
      securities are recognized using the specific identification method.

      3. Loans Receivable

      Loans held in portfolio are stated at the principal amount outstanding,
      adjusted for deferred loan origination fees and costs, capitalized
      mortgage servicing rights and the allowance for loan losses.

      Interest is accrued as earned unless the collectibility of the loan is in
      doubt. Uncollectible interest on loans that are contractually past due is
      charged off, or an allowance is established based on management's periodic
      evaluation. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income
      equal to all interest previously accrued and not received, and income is
      subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash payments are received
      until, in management's judgment, the borrower's ability to make periodic
      interest and principal payments has returned to normal, in which case the
      loan is returned to accrual status.

      Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost (less principal
      payments received) or fair value (market value), calculated on an
      aggregate basis. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, loans held for sale were
      carried at cost.

      The Corporation accounts for mortgage servicing rights in accordance with
      SFAS No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
      and Extinguishments of Liabilities," which requires that the Corporation
      recognize, as separate assets, rights to service mortgage loans for
      others, regardless of how those servicing rights are acquired. An
      institution that acquires mortgage servicing rights through either the
      purchase or origination of mortgage loans and sells those loans with
      servicing rights retained must allocate some of the cost of the loans to
      the mortgage servicing rights.

      SFAS No. 140 requires that capitalized mortgage servicing rights and
      capitalized excess servicing receivables be assessed for impairment.
      Impairment is measured based on fair value. The mortgage servicing rights
      recorded by the Bank, calculated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS
      No. 140, were segregated into pools for valuation purposes, using as
      pooling criteria the loan term and coupon rate.

                                       48


                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

                        December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

      3. Loans Receivable (continued)

      Once pooled, each grouping of loans was evaluated on a discounted earnings
      basis to determine the present value of future earnings that a purchaser
      could expect to realize from each portfolio. Earnings were projected from
      a variety of sources including loan servicing fees, interest earned on
      float, net interest earned on escrows, miscellaneous income, and costs to
      service the loans. The present value of future earnings is the "economic"
      value for the pool, i.e., the net realizable present value to an acquirer
      of the acquired servicing.

      The Corporation recorded amortization related to mortgage servicing rights
      totaling approximately $1.2 million, $2.9 million and $2.1 million, for
      the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. During
      2002, the Corporation recaptured approximately $640,000 of a previously
      recorded impairment charge based upon an independent appraisal of the
      mortgage servicing rights. The carrying value of the Corporation's
      mortgage servicing rights, which approximated their fair value, totaled
      approximately $7.0 million and $6.6 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003,
      respectively.

      At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Bank was servicing mortgage loans of
      approximately $587.0 million and $587.8 million, respectively, that have
      been sold to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Federal National
      Mortgage Association and other investors.

      4. Loan Origination and Commitment Fees

      The Corporation accounts for loan origination fees and costs in accordance
      with SFAS No. 91, "Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated
      with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases."
      Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 91, all loan origination fees
      received, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred on a
      loan-by-loan basis and amortized to interest income using the interest
      method, giving effect to actual loan prepayments. Additionally, SFAS No.
      91 generally limits the definition of loan origination costs to the direct
      costs attributable to originating a loan, i.e., principally actual
      personnel costs.

      Fees received for loan commitments are deferred and amortized over the
      life of the related loan using the interest method.

      5. Allowance for Loan Losses

      It is the Corporation's policy to provide valuation allowances for
      estimated losses on loans based upon past loss experience, current trends
      in the level of delinquent and problem loans, adverse situations that may
      affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any
      underlying collateral and current economic conditions in the Bank's
      primary market areas. When the collection of a loan becomes doubtful, or
      otherwise troubled, the Corporation records a charge-off or an allowance
      equal to the difference between the fair value of the property securing
      the loan and the loan's carrying value. Such provision is based on
      management's estimate of the fair value of the underlying collateral,
      taking into consideration the current and currently anticipated future
      operating or sales conditions. As a result, such estimates are
      particularly susceptible to changes that could result in a material
      adjustment to results of operations in the near term. Recovery of the
      carrying value of such loans is dependent to a great extent on economic,

      5. Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)

      The Corporation accounts for impaired loans in accordance with SFAS No.
      114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan." SFAS No. 114
      requires that impaired loans be measured based upon the present value of
      expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest
      rate or, as an alternative, at the loan's observable market price or fair
      value of the collateral.

      A loan is defined under SFAS No. 114 as impaired when, based on current
      information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to
      collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan
      agreement. In applying the provisions of SFAS No. 114, the Corporation
      considers its investment in one- to four-family residential loans and
      consumer installment loans to be homogeneous and therefore excluded from
      separate identification for evaluation of impairment. With respect to the
      Corporation's investment in multi-family, commercial and nonresidential
      loans, and its evaluation of any impairment thereon, such loans are
      generally collateral-dependent and as a result are carried as a practical
      expedient at the lower of cost or fair value.

      It is the Corporation's policy to charge off unsecured credits that are
      more than ninety days delinquent. Similarly, collateral-dependent loans
      which are more than ninety days delinquent are considered to constitute
      more than a minimum delay in repayment and are evaluated for impairment
      under SFAS No. 114 at that time.

      The Bank's impaired loan information is as follows at December 31:



                                              2004          2003

      6. Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure

      Real estate acquired through foreclosure is carried at the lower of the
      loan's unpaid principal balance (cost) or fair value less estimated
      selling expenses at the date of acquisition. Real estate loss provisions
      are recorded if the fair value of the property subsequently declines below
      the amount determined at the recording date. In determining the lower of
      cost or fair value at acquisition, costs relating to development and
      improvement of property are capitalized. Costs relating to holding real
      estate acquired through foreclosure, net of rental income, are charged
      against earnings as incurred.

      7. Office Premises and Equipment

      Office premises and equipment are carried at cost and include expenditures
      which extend the useful lives of existing assets. Maintenance, repairs and
      minor renewals are expensed as incurred. For financial reporting,
      depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line method
      over the useful lives of the assets, estimated to be ten to fifty years
      for buildings and improvements and three to twenty-five years for
      furniture, fixtures and equipment. An accelerated depreciation method is
      used for tax reporting purposes.

      8. Goodwill

      The Corporation accounts for acquisitions pursuant to SFAS No. 142
      "Goodwill and Intangible Assets," which prescribes accounting for all
      purchased goodwill and intangible assets. In accordance with that
      Statement, acquired goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for
      impairment at the reporting unit level annually and whenever an impairment
      indicator arises. Goodwill has been assigned to Advantage Bank as the
      reporting unit that is expected to benefit from the goodwill.

      Camco evaluated the unamortized goodwill balance during 2004, 2003 and
      2002 in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 via independent
      third-party appraisal. The evaluations showed no indication of impairment.

      9. Federal Income Taxes

      The Corporation accounts for federal income taxes in accordance with SFAS
      No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." In accordance with SFAS No. 109, a
      deferred tax liability or deferred tax asset is computed by applying the
      current statutory tax rates to net taxable or deductible temporary
      differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its
      reported amount in the financial statements that will result in taxable or
      deductible amounts in future periods. Deferred tax assets are recorded
      only to the extent that the amount of net deductible temporary differences
      or carryforward attributes may be utilized against current period
      earnings, carried back against prior years' earnings, offset against
      taxable temporary differences reversing in future periods, or utilized to
      the extent of management's estimate of future taxable income. A valuation
      allowance is provided for deferred tax assets to the extent that the value
      of net deductible temporary differences and carryforward attributes
      exceeds management's estimates of taxes payable on future taxable income.
      Deferred tax liabilities are provided on the total amount of net temporary
      differences taxable in the future.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

      9. Federal Income Taxes (continued)

      Deferral of income taxes results primarily from different methods of
      accounting for deferred loan origination fees and costs, mortgage
      servicing rights, Federal Home Loan Bank stock dividends, deferred
      compensation and the general loan loss allowance. A temporary difference
      is also recognized for depreciation expense computed using accelerated
      methods for federal income tax purposes.

      10. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

      Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed based upon the
      weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year.
      Diluted earnings per common share is computed including the dilutive
      effect of additional potential common shares issuable under outstanding
      stock options. Diluted earnings per share is not computed for periods in
      which an operating loss is sustained. The computations were as follows for
      the years ended December 31:



                                            2004           2003          2002

Dilutive effect of assumed exercise
  of stock options                              N/A        74,390        97,094

Weighted-average common shares
  outstanding (diluted)                         N/A     7,566,367     8,005,880
                                          =========     =========     =========


      Options to purchase 80,789 and 65,441 shares of common stock at respective
      weighted-average exercise price of $16.40 and $14.83 were outstanding at
      December 31, 2004 and 2002, respectively, but were excluded from the
      computation of diluted earnings per share for those years because the
      exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common
      shares. There were no anti-dilutive options outstanding for the year ended
      December 31, 2003.

      11. Stock Option Plans

      Stockholders of the Corporation have approved four stock option plans.
      Under the 1972 Plan, 254,230 common shares were reserved for issuance to
      officers, directors, and key employees of the Corporation and its
      subsidiaries. The 1982 Plan reserved 115,824 common shares for issuance to
      employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. All of the stock
      options under the 1972 and 1982 Plans have been granted and were subject
      to exercise at the discretion of the grantees through 2002. Under the 1995
      Plan, 161,488 shares were reserved for issuance. Under the 2002 Plan,
      400,000 shares were reserved for issuance. Additionally, in connection
      with prior acquisitions, stock options of acquired companies were
      converted into options to purchase 174,421 and 311,794 shares of the
      Corporation's stock at exercise prices of $7.38 and $11.38 per share,
      respectively, which expire through 2008.

      11. Stock Option Plans (continued)

      The Corporation accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with
      SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which contains a
      fair-value based method for valuing stock-based compensation that entities
      may use, which measures compensation cost at the grant date based on the
      fair value of the award. Compensation is then recognized over the service
      period, which is usually the vesting period. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123
      permits entities to continue to account for stock options and similar
      equity instruments under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No.
      25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Entities that continue to
      account for stock options using APB Opinion No. 25 are required to make
      pro forma disclosures of net earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per
      share, as if the fair-value based method of accounting defined in SFAS No.
      123 had been applied.

      The Corporation utilizes APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in
      accounting for its stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost
      has been recognized for the plans. Had compensation cost for the
      Corporation's stock option plans been determined based on the fair value
      at the grant dates for awards under the plans consistent with the
      accounting method utilized in SFAS No. 123, the Corporation's net earnings
      (loss) and earnings (loss) per share would have been reported as the pro
      forma amounts indicated below:

      11. Stock Option Plans (continued)

      The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant
      using the modified Black-Scholes options-pricing model with the following
      assumptions used for grants during 2004, 2003 and 2002: dividend yield of
      3.40%, 3.50% and 3.84%, respectively; expected volatility of 21.44%,
      16.88%, and 16.34%, respectively; a risk-free interest rate of 4.11%,
      3.95% and 2.00%, respectively; and an expected life of ten years for all
      grants.

      A summary of the status of the Corporation's stock option plans as of
      December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and changes during the years ending on

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

      12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

      SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,"
      requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments,
      whether or not recognized in the consolidated statement of financial
      condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases
      where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on
      estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those
      techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including
      the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the
      derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to
      independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate
      settlement of the instrument. SFAS No. 107 excludes certain financial
      instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure
      requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do
      not represent the underlying value of the Corporation.

      The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in
      estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments. The use
      of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a
      material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

                  Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amount reported in the
                  consolidated statements of financial condition for cash and
                  cash equivalents is deemed to approximate fair value.

                  Investment Securities and Mortgage-backed Securities: Fair
                  values for investment securities and mortgage-backed
                  securities are based on quoted market prices and dealer
                  quotes.

                  Loans Receivable: The loan portfolio has been segregated into
                  categories with similar characteristics, such as one- to
                  four-family residential real estate, multi-family residential
                  real estate, installment and other. These loan categories were
                  further delineated into fixed-rate and adjustable-rate loans.
                  The fair values for the resultant loan categories were
                  computed via discounted cash flow analysis, using current
                  interest rates offered for loans with similar terms to
                  borrowers of similar credit quality.

                  Federal Home Loan Bank stock: The carrying amount presented in
                  the consolidated statements of financial condition is deemed
                  to approximate fair value.

                  Deposits: The fair values of deposits with no stated maturity,
                  such as money market demand deposits, savings and NOW
                  accounts, are deemed to equal the amount payable on demand as
                  of December 31, 2004 and 2003. The fair value of fixed-rate
                  certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of
                  contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using
                  the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining
                  maturities.

                  Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank: The fair value of
                  these advances is estimated using the rates currently offered
                  for similar advances of similar remaining maturities or, when
                  available, quoted market prices.

                  Advances by Borrowers for Taxes and Insurance: The carrying
                  amount of advances by borrowers for taxes and insurance is
                  deemed to approximate fair value.

      12. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

                  Commitments to Extend Credit: For fixed-rate and
                  adjustable-rate loan commitments, the fair value estimate
                  considers the difference between current levels of interest
                  rates and committed rates. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the
                  fair value of loan commitments was not material.

      Based on the foregoing methods and assumptions, the carrying value and
      fair value of the Corporation's financial instruments are as follows:

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

      16. Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

      In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB")
      issued a revision to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
      No. 123 which establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in
      which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services,
      primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains
      employee services in share-based transactions. This Statement, SFAS No.
      123 (R), requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services
      received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the
      grant-date fair value of the award, with limited exceptions. That cost
      will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to
      provide services in exchange for the award - the requisite service period.
      No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which
      employees do not render the requisite service. Employee share purchase
      plans will not result in recognition of compensation cost if certain
      conditions are met.

      Initially, the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award
      of liability instruments will be measured based on current fair value; the
      fair value of that award will be remeasured subsequently at each reporting
      date through the settlement date. Changes in fair value during the
      requisite service period will be recognized as compensation cost over that
      period. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar
      instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the
      unique characteristics of those instruments (unless observable market
      prices for the same or similar instruments are available). If an equity
      award is modified after the grant date, incremental compensation cost will
      be recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the fair value of the
      modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately
      before the modification.

      Excess tax benefits, as defined by SFAS No. 123(R) will be recognized as
      an addition to additional paid in capital. Cash retained as a result of
      those excess tax benefits will be presented in the statement of cash flows
      as financing cash inflows. The write-off of deferred tax assets relating
      to unrealized tax benefits associated with recognized compensation cost
      will be recognized as income tax expense unless there are excess tax
      benefits from previous awards remaining in additional paid in capital to
      which it can be offset.

      Compensation cost is required to be recognized in the beginning of the
      first interim or annual period that begins after June 15, 2005, or July 1,
      2005 as to the Corporation. Management believes the effect of the
      Statement on operations will approximate the economic effects set forth in
      the pro-forma stock option disclosure set forth in Note A-11 above.

NOTE C - LOANS RECEIVABLE (continued)

      As depicted above, the Corporation's lending efforts have historically
      focused on loans secured by existing residential properties, which
      comprise approximately $492.4 million, or 59%, of the total loan portfolio
      at December 31, 2004 and approximately $551.6 million, or 69%, of the
      total loan portfolio at December 31, 2003. Generally, such loans have been
      underwritten on the basis of no more than an 80% loan-to-value ratio,
      which has historically provided the Corporation with adequate collateral
      coverage in the event of default. Nevertheless, the Corporation, as with
      any lending institution, is subject to the risk that residential real
      estate values could deteriorate in its primary lending areas within Ohio,
      West Virginia, and northern Kentucky, thereby impairing collateral values.
      However, management believes that residential real estate values in the
      Corporation's primary lending areas are presently stable.

      The Bank, in the ordinary course of business, has granted loans to certain
      of its directors, executive officers, and their related interests. Such
      loans are made on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral,
      as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated
      persons and do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility. The
      aggregate dollar amount of these loans totaled approximately $1.4 million
      at both December 31, 2004 and 2003.

NOTE D - ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

      $13.6 million and $13.6 million at December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002,
      respectively. Interest income that would have been recognized had such

      approximately $573,000, $808,000 and $940,000 for the years ended December
      31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

                        December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002

NOTE H - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (CREDITS) (continued)

      For years prior to 1996, the Bank was allowed a special bad debt deduction
      generally limited to 8% of otherwise taxable income, subject to certain
      limitations based on aggregate loans and savings account balances at the
      end of the year. If the amounts that qualified as deductions for federal
      income taxes are later used for purposes other than for bad debt losses,
      including distributions in liquidation, such distributions will be subject
      to federal income taxes at the then current corporate income tax rate. The
      percentage of earnings bad debt deduction had accumulated to approximately
      $12.1 million as of December 31, 2004. The amount of the unrecognized
      deferred tax liability relating to the cumulative bad debt deduction was
      approximately $4.1 million at December 31, 2004.

      The Bank was required to recapture as taxable income approximately $1.9
      million of its bad debt reserve, which represented post-1987 additions to
      the reserve, and is unable to utilize the percentage of earnings method to
      compute the reserve in the future. The Bank had provided deferred taxes
      for this amount and completed the amortization of the recapture of the bad
      debt reserve into taxable income in 2003.

NOTE I - COMMITMENTS

      The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk
      in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its
      customers, including commitments to extend credit. Such commitments
      involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in
      excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statement of financial
      condition. The contract or notional amounts of the commitments reflect the
      extent of the Bank's involvement in such financial instruments.

      The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
      other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit
      is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments.
      The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and
      conditional obligations as those utilized for on-balance-sheet
      instruments.

      At December 31, 2004, the Bank had outstanding commitments to originate
      and purchase fixed-rate loans of approximately $677,000 and
      adjustable-rate loans of approximately $33.7 million. Additionally, the
      Bank had unused lines of credit under home equity and other loans of $63.5
      million at December 31, 2004, and stand by letters of credit of $455,000.
      Management believes that all loan commitments are able to be funded
      through cash flow from operations and existing liquidity. Fees received in
      connection with these commitments have not been recognized in earnings.

      Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long
      as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.
      Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination
      clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments
      may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not
      necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each
      customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of
      collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension
      of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty.
      Collateral on loans may vary but the preponderance of loans granted
      generally include a mortgage interest in real estate as security.

      2002, respectively.

NOTE J - REGULATORY CAPITAL

      Camco and Advantage are subject to the regulatory capital requirements of
      the Federal Reserve Board (the "FRB") and Advantage is subject to the
      requirements of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC").
      Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain
      mandatory - and possibly additional discretionary - actions by regulators
      that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the
      Corporation's consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy
      guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the
      Corporation and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that
      involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain
      off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting
      practices. The Corporation and Bank's capital amounts and classification
      are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about
      components, risk weightings, and other factors.

      The FRB and FDIC have adopted risk-based capital ratio guidelines to which
      the Corporation is subject. The guidelines establish a systematic
      analytical framework that makes regulatory capital requirements more
      sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banking organizations.
      Risk-based capital ratios are determined by allocating assets and
      specified off-balance sheet commitments to four risk-weighting categories,
      with higher levels of capital being required for the categories perceived
      as representing greater risk.

                        December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002

NOTE J - REGULATORY CAPITAL (continued)

      These guidelines divide the capital into two tiers. The first tier ("Tier
      I") includes common equity, certain non-cumulative perpetual preferred
      stock (excluding auction rate issues) and minority interests in equity
      accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and certain other
      intangible assets (except mortgage servicing rights and purchased credit
      card relationships, subject to certain limitations). Supplementary ("Tier
      II") capital includes, among other items, cumulative perpetual and
      long-term limited-life preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities,
      certain hybrid capital instruments, term subordinated debt and the
      allowance for loan losses, subject to certain limitations, less required
      deductions. Banks and financial holding companies are required to maintain
      a total risk-based capital ratio of 8%, of which 4% must be Tier I
      capital. The regulatory agencies may, however, set higher capital
      requirements when particular circumstances warrant. Banks experiencing or
      anticipating significant growth are expected to maintain capital ratios,
      including tangible capital positions, well above the minimum levels.

      During 2004, management was notified by the FDIC that Advantage was
      categorized as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory framework for
      prompt corrective action. To be categorized as "well-capitalized" Camco
      and Advantage must maintain minimum capital ratios as set forth in the
      table that follows.

      As of December 31, 2004, management believes that the Corporation met all
      capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject.

      The Corporation's management believes that, under the current regulatory
      capital regulations, Camco will continue to meet its minimum capital
      requirements in the foreseeable future. However, events beyond the control
      of the Corporation, such as increased interest rates or a downturn in the
      economy in the Bank's market areas, could adversely affect future earnings
      and, consequently, the ability to meet future minimum regulatory capital
      requirements.

NOTE K - BENEFIT PLANS

      The Corporation has a non-contributory retirement plan which provides
      benefits to certain key officers. The Corporation's future obligations
      under the plan have been provided for via the purchase of single premium
      key man life insurance of which the Corporation is the beneficiary. The
      Corporation recorded expense related to the plan totaling approximately
      $327,000, $291,000 and $296,000 during the years ended December 31, 2004,
      2003 and 2002, respectively.

      The Corporation also has a 401(k) Salary Savings Plan covering
      substantially all employees. Contributions by the employees are voluntary
      and are subject to matching contributions by the employer under a fixed
      percentage, which may be increased at the discretion of the Board of
      Directors. Total expense under this plan was $307,000, $297,000 and
      $328,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002,
      respectively.

Ohio state statutes impose certain limitations on the payment of dividends and
other capital distributions by banks. Generally, absent approval of the
Superintendent of Banks, such statutes limit dividend and capital distributions
to earnings of the current and two preceding years. As a result, Camco will need
regulatory approval for dividend distributions in 2005. However, management is
of the opinion that such approval will not be unreasonably withheld given the
Bank's current well-capitalized classification.

      During 2004, the Corporation agreed to acquire London Financial utilizing
      the purchase method of accounting. London Financial was merged into Camco
      in August 2004 and its banking subsidiary, Citizens Bank of London,
      continued operations as a division of Advantage. Camco paid $4.7 million
      in cash and issued 277,820 of its common shares, which were valued at
      approximately $3.5 million, in connection with the acquisition.

      The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets
      acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition.
