NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Basis of Presentation Cavalry Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), was organized on November 5, 1997 under Tennessee law at the direction of Cavalry Banking (the "Bank") to acquire all of the capital stock that the Bank would issue upon its conversion from the mutual to stock form of ownership. The conversion was completed on March 16, 1998 through the sale and issuance of 7,538,250 shares of common stock by the Company at a price of $10.00 per share. Information set forth in this report relating to periods prior to the Conversion, including consolidated financial statements and related data, relates to Cavalry Banking and its subsidiaries. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 1998. The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1997. 2. Earnings Per Share Earnings per share has been computed for the three months ended March 31, 1998 based upon weighted average common shares outstanding of 6,935,190. For the purpose of computing weighted average shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 1998, shares issued in the Conversion on March 16, 1998 were assumed to have been outstanding since January 1, 1998. Earnings per share for the three month ended March 31, 1997 is not presented as there was no common stock issued or outstanding. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share, established new standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods ending after December 15, 1997. This standard had no impact on the computation of the Company's earnings per share upon adoption. 5 3.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 Total assets were $350.9 million at March 31, 1998 and $282.1 million at December 31, 1997, an increase of $68.8 million or 24.4%. This increase resulted primarily from the proceeds of the initial public offering of stock which was completed on March 16, 1998. As a result of this offering, the Company realized an increase in cash of approximately $67.8 million. These funds were invested in interest bearing deposits and short-term investments. Cash and cash equivalents increased $52.1 million while total investments increased $3.9 million. Mortgage-backed securities decreased $135,000 as a result of prepayments. Loans held for sale increased $3.9 million. The variances resulted primarily from timing differences in the funding of loans. Loans receivable, net increased from $213.0 million at December 31, 1997 to $221.6 million at March 31, 1998. Consumer, commercial, and commercial real estate increased $15.5 million as a result of additional loan officers, general market conditions and more aggressive pricing. These gains were offset by declines in construction, land, multifamily, and one-to-four family mortgage loans. The declines in one-to-four family mortgage loans were primarily a result of refinancing activity. Deposit accounts decreased $1.6 million from December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998. Certificates of deposit decreased $11.9 million primarily as a result of withdrawals to fund stock purchases. This decline was offset by a $10.3 million increase in transaction and other savings accounts primarily as a result of active solicitation of these types of accounts. Stockholders' equity increased by $69.3 million from December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998, as a result net proceeds received in the conversion of $67.9 million and net income of $1.4 million for the three month period ending March 31, 1998. Nonperforming assets decreased from $150,000 at December 31, 1997 to $36,000 at March 31, 1998. Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 and March 31, 1997. Net Income. Net income increased to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from $894,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 primarily as a result of increased investment and deposit income offset partially by an increased provision for income taxes due to increased income before taxes. The increase in investment and deposit income is principally the result of additional funds available for investment in the three month period ended March 31, 1998 from the conversion. 8 Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased 25.5% to $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from $5.1 million for the same period in 1997. Interest on loans increased from $4.8 million for the period ended March 31,1997 to $5.3 million for the same period in 1998. This was a result of average loans outstanding increasing from $205.6 million in 1997 to $224.1 million for the same period in 1998. The average yield also increased from 9.3% for the period ended March 31, 1997 compared to 9.4% for the same period in 1998. This increase was a result of growth in the commercial and consumer loan portfolio. Income on all other investments consisting of mortgage backed securities, investments, FHLB stock, bank deposits and federal funds increased from $350,000 for the period ended March 31, 1997 to $1.2 million for 1998. Average investments increased from $23.7 million for the three months in 1997 to $87.0 million for the same period in 1998 as as a result of the investment of stock subscription funds. The average yield declined from 5.9% for the period ended March 31, 1997 to 5.3% as a result of the conversion funds being mostly invested in overnight and other short-term investments. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased from $2.2 million for the period ended March 31, 1997 to $2.7 million for the same period in 1998. Average deposits increased from $197.2 million for the period in 1997 to $262.3 million for 1998. The average cost of deposits decreased from 4.47% in 1997 to 4.10% in 1998. This decrease was primarily a result of the average balance in passbook savings increasing from $15.4 million in 1997 to $48.3 million in 1998 with the cost declining from 1.97% in 1997 to 1.92% in 1998. The increase in average deposits was a result of the stock subscription funds. Provision for Loan Loses. Provision for loan losses are charges to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered by management as adequate to provide for estimated loan losses based on management's evaluation of the collectibility of the loan portfolio, including the nature of the portfolio, credit concentrations, trends in historical loss experience, specific impaired loans and economic conditions. Management also considers the level of problem assets giving greater weight to the level of classified assets than to the level of nonperforming assets because classified assets include not only nonperforming assets but also performing assets that otherwise exhibit, in management's judgement, potential credit weaknesses. The provision for loan losses was $54,000 for the period ending March 31, 1998 compared to $75,000 for the same period in 1997. Classified assets increased from $1.3 million at December 31, 1997 to $1.4 million at March 31, 1998. Management expects classified assets to increase moderately, although no assurances can be given that this will in fact occur. Management's expectation is based upon its anticipation of continued loan growth, particularly in the areas of construction, commercial real estate, commercial and consumer lending. Management deemed the allowance for loan losses adequate at March 31, 1998. 9 Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 from $746,000 for the same period in 1997. Net gain on sale of loans increased from $135,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $567,000 for the same period in 1998. This increase was a result of increased volume, increased pricing spreads, and overall more favorable market conditions in 1998 than in 1997. Deposit servicing fees increased from $268,000 in 1997 to $332,000 as a result of increased volume in transactional accounts and an increased pricing structure. Trust fees also increased from $137,000 in 1997 to $163,000 in 1998 because of more trust assets under management and an increase in fees charged. The Bank also recorded a pre-tax gain of $42,000 on the sale of the branch building and property on South Tennessee Boulevard. This branch operation was relocated to a new facility at SE Broad Street. These gains were offset by a decline in loan servicing income from $138,000 in 1997 to $107,000 in 1998 largely as a result of increased amortization of originated servicing rights. Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense was $2.8 million for the period ending March 31, 1998 compared to $2.2 million in 1997. Compensation and other employee benefits increased from $1.2 million at March 31, 1997 to $1.6 million at March 1998 primarily as a result of an increase in commission expenses and related fringe benefits. Commission expense increased from $100,000 for the period ending March 31, 1997 compared to $278,000 for the same period in 1998 as a result of higher production volume. Non commission related compensation also increased from $832,000 in 1997 to $971,000 in 1998 as a result of increased staffing to service the increased volumes in deposits and lending and normal annual salary increases. The increases in other categories of operating expenses generally are attributable to the growth of the Company. The Company anticipates that other operating expenses will continue to increase in subsequent periods as a result of increased cost associated with operating a public company. Income taxes. The provision for income taxes was $830,000 for the period ended March 31, 1998 compared to $564,000 for the same period in 1997. This was a result of higher income before income taxes for the period ended March 31, 1998. 10 Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, proceeds from principal and interest payments from and the sale of loans, maturing securities and FHLB of Cincinnati advances. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are influenced greatly by general interest rates, other economic conditions and competition. Regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), the Bank's primary regulator, require the Bank to maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the availability of sufficient funds to fund loan originations, deposit withdrawals and to satisfy other financial commitments. Currently, the OTS regulatory liquidity for the Bank is the maintenance of an average daily balance of liquid assets (cash and eligible investments) equal to at least 4% of the daily balance of net withdrawal deposits and short-term borrowings. This liquidity requirement is subject to periodic change. The Company and the Bank generally maintain sufficient cash and short-term investments to meet short-term liquidity needs. At March 31, 1998, cash and cash equivalents totaled $89.8 million or 25.6% of total assets, and investments available for sale totaled $10.0 million. At March 31, 1998, the Bank also maintained, but did not draw upon, a line of credit with the FHLB of Cincinnati in the amount of $15.0 million. As of March 31, 1998, the Bank's regulatory capital was in excess of all applicable regulatory requirements. At March 31, 1998, under regulations of the OTS, the Bank's tangible, core and risk-based capital ratios were 21.7%, 21.7% and 28.8%, respectively, compared to requirements of 1.5%, 3.0% and 8.0%, respectively. At March 31, 1998, the Bank had loan commitments (excluding undisbursed portions of construction loans) of approximately $3.6 million. In addition, at March 31, 1998, the unused portion of lines of credit extended by the Bank was approximately $6.4 million for consumer lines of credit and $20.1 million for commercial lines of credit. Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. Most guarantees are for a term of one to two years. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. At March 31, 1998, the Bank had $6.1 million of letters of credit outstanding. Year 2000 Every financial institution will be posed with the Year 2000 challenge. It is our desire to make the transition to the Year 2000 as effortless as possible. Cavalry Banking has developed an intensive Action Plan for addressing the concerns and risks associated with the coming millennium. The comprehensive plan was written based on guidelines established by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council's Interagency Statement entitled "Year 2000 Project Management Awareness." The Year 2000 Action Plan includes defined phases for Awareness, Assessment, Renovation, Validation and Implementation. During this quarter, the Cavalry Banking Audit Committee was assigned responsibility for overseeing the successful completion of the Year 2000 Action Plan. The Company's various vendors, hardware and software systems are progressing through the Renovation and Validation phases of the Action Plan and are on track to be fully tested during the fourth quarter of 1998. 11 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk There have been no material changes in the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks as of March 31, 1998 from that presented in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. Part II. Other Information Item 1. Legal Proceedings Not applicable Item 2.
