GENERAL The Company is a Delaware corporation which was organized in 1996 for the purpose of becoming the thrift holding company of FirstBank (the "Bank"). The Bank is a federally chartered stock savings bank conducting business from three banking locations in Clovis and Portales, New Mexico and a loan production office in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. The Bank has a wholly-owned subsidiary which is currently inactive. The Bank is principally engaged in the business of attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those funds in first mortgage loans in owner occupied, single-family residential loans and mortgage-backed securities. To a lesser extent, the Bank originates residential construction loans and commercial real estate loans. The Bank also originates consumer loans, including loans for the purchase of automobiles and home improvement loans, and commercial loans including Small Business Administration loans. The most significant outside factors influencing the operations of the Bank and other financial institutions include general economic conditions, competition in the local market place and the related monetary and fiscal policies of agencies that regulate financial institutions. More specifically, the cost of funds, primarily consisting of deposits, is influenced by interest rates on competing investments and general market rates of interest. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for real estate financing and other types of loans, which in turn is affected by the interest rates at which such loans may be offered and other factors affecting loan demand and funds availability. FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets for the Company increased by $6,835,000 or 6.4%, from December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998. The increase in assets was due to an increase of approximately $9.9 million in loans receivable which was partially offset by a decrease of approximately $3.3 million in securities held-to-maturity during the quarter ended March 31, 1998 which is the result of management's efforts to increase interest earning assets. The increase in loans receivable, primarily in conventional first mortgage loans, reflects an increase in loans originated during the first quarter of 1998 which is the result of a continued loan development program established by the Bank's management. Principal prepayment on mortgage loans remains strong and combined with the maturing mortgage-backed securities portfolio caused the decrease in securities held-to-maturity. Total liabilities increased by $6,750,000, or 6.9%, during the quarter ended March 31,1998. An increase in FHLB advances of $5.8 million and $1.0 million in deposits caused the increase in total liabilities from December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998. The additional borrowings were necessitated in order to fund the asset growth previously discussed. 13 CAPITAL ADEQUACY AND LIQUIDITY CAPITAL ADEQUACY - Under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") and the implementation of Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") regulations on December 7, 1989, effective date of the new capital standards, the Bank must have: (1) Tier 1 or core capital equal to 3% of adjusted total assets and (2) total capital equal to 8.0% of risk-weighted assets, which includes off-balance sheet items. Under Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act ("FDICIA") to be deemed "well capitalized" the minimum ratios the Bank must have are : (1) Tier 1 or core capital of 5% of adjusted total assets, (2) Tier 1 risk-based capital of 6% of risk-weighed assets, and (3) total risk- based capital of 10% of risk weighted assets. The following table is a reconciliation of the Bank's capital for regulatory purposes at March 31, 1998 as reported to the OTS.

The Bank maintains its liquidity position through maintenance of cash resources and a core deposit base. A further source is the Bank's ability to borrow funds. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan 14 Bank ("FHLB") which provides a source of borrowings to the Bank for asset and asset/liability matching. As of March 31, 1998, the Bank had $5,750 million in FHLB borrowings. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE-MONTH COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS FOR PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997 Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 was $74,000 or $.06 per share compared to $111,000 or $.12 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased by approximately $109,000 to $841,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 compared to $732,000 for the same period in 1997. The increase was the result of management's efforts to increase loans receivable in an effort to enhance interest income. During the first quarter of 1998 the provision for loan losses increased to $35,000 compared to $23,000 in 1997. Noninterest income decreased by $14,000 or 6.05% to $221,000 in the three-months ended March 31, 1998 compared to $235,000 in 1997. The decrease was due to a $18,000 gain in the first quarter in 1997 on the sale of available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities. Noninterest expense was $925,000 in the first quarter of 1998 compared to $834,000 in 1997. The increase in noninterest expense was principally due to the conversion cost to a new data processor and overtime and salaries expenses which lead to a $77,000 or 19.03% increase in salaries and employee benefits in 1998 as compared to the same period in 1997. Deposit insurance premium decreased by $29,000, while professional fees increased by $14,000 and other expense increased by $18,000 in the three-months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. Income tax expense for the first quarter of 1998 was $27,000 compared to no tax expense in the same quarter in 1997. Prior to 1997, the deferred tax asset valuation allowance was due primarily to NOL carryforwards which were not expected to be utilized before their respective expiration dates or which benefits the Company was unable to predict whether they would more likely than not be realized. During the third quarter of 1997, the Company changed its estimate with respect to the future benefits of the NOL carryforwards and, accordingly, reduced the related valuation allowance. To the extent the valuation allowance was reduced the related tax benefit was credited to income during that quarter, therefore, periods after 1997 will include income tax expense based on earnings of the Company. 15 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS When used in this Form 10-QSB, certain words or phrases are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
