NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION --------------------- The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial condition of Classic Bancshares, Inc. as of September 30, 2003, and the results of operations for all interim periods presented. Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003. STOCK OPTION PLANS ------------------ Employee compensation expense under stock option plans is reported using the intrinsic value method. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market price of the underlying common stock at date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if expense was measured using the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION --------------------------- The financial statements include the accounts of Classic Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Classic Bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. DIVIDEND -------- The Company declared a 10% dividend on October 20, 2003, payable in November 2003. The payment of this dividend is in addition to the regular quarterly cash dividend. Per share amounts have been restated for the impact of this stock dividend. (2) EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share are presented pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic earnings per share are calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective periods. Diluted earnings per share are computed taking into consideration common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares to be issued under the Company's stock option plans and recognition and retention plan.

Options to purchase 206,635 shares of common stock were outstanding at September 30, 2002. (3) IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) recently issued two new accounting standards, Statement 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and Statement 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equities, both of which generally became effective in the quarter beginning July 1, 2003. Management determined that, upon adopting the new standards, they will not materially affect the Company's operating results or financial condition because the Company does not have these instruments or engage in these activities. On April 1, 2003, the Company adopted Interpretation 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees. On July 1, 2003, the Company adopted Statement 149, amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and Statement 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equities. On October 1, 2003, the Company adopted Interpretation 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. Adoption of the new standards did not materially affect the Company's operating results or financial condition. (4) ACQUISITION OF FIRST FEDERAL FINANCIAL BANCORP On June 20, 2003, the Company acquired 100 percent of the outstanding common stock of First Federal Financial Bancorp, Inc., headquartered in Ironton, Ohio, the holding company for First Federal Savings Bank of Ironton, which operated three offices in southeastern Ohio. In the transaction, First Federal Savings Bank of Ironton was merged with and into Classic Bank with Classic Bank as the surviving institution. All locations of First Federal will be operated as branch offices of Classic Bank. Shareholders of First Federal were able to elect to receive either shares of Classic common stock, $24.00 in cash or a combination of stock and cash subject to the requirement that 50% of First Federal shares were exchanged for cash and 50% were exchanged for Classic common stock. The results of First Federal's operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since June 20, 2003. Presented below are the net assets acquired from First Federal. Management believes that the assets and liabilities acquired are similar to those of the Company. 11 (IN THOUSANDS) Cash $ 9,573 Loans, net 49,474 Securities 9,490 Other assets 3,442 Deposits (56,682) FHLB borrowings (6,373) Other liabilities (720) -------- Net asset acquired $ 8,204 -------- First Federal is located in the market area of the Company and thus, the acquisition enabled the Bank to gain market share and affords the Company the opportunity to reduce costs through economies of scale. The aggregate purchase price was $11.4 million, including $5.6 million of cash and common stock valued at $5.8 million and resulted in goodwill and other intangibles of $3.6 million. The value of the 228,665 common shares issued was determined based upon the closing market price of Classic's common shares on December 30, 2002, the date the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and announced. Under the terms of the agreement, the number of shares of the Company's common stock for which each First Federal shares was exchanged was ..9797. Presented below are the unaudited, pro-forma condensed consolidated results of operations of the Company for the six months ended September 30, 2003 and the three and six months ended September 30, 2002, assuming the transaction occurred on April 1, 2003 and April 1, 2002. 6 MOS.

First Federal's merger expenses include employee severance payments, the payment of an employment contract, legal fees, accounting fees, fees paid to an investment banker and data processing termination fees. The total non-recurring expense items for the period net of tax was $659,663. 12 PART I - ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FINANCIAL CONDITION - ------------------- The Company's total assets increased $83.2 million from $249.9 million at March 31, 2003 to $333.1 million at September 30, 2003. The increase was due primarily to an increase in loans of $62.6 million, an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $8.2 million, an increase in securities of $5.2 million, an increase in goodwill and other intangibles of $3.6 million, an increase in premise and equipment of approximately $1.5 million, an increase in other assets of approximately $1.2 million and an increase in FHLB stock of approximately $890,000. Net loans receivable increased $62.6 million from $187.2 million at March 31, 2003 to $249.8 million at September 30, 2003. The increase was due primarily to net loans acquired from First Federal of approximately $49.5 million and a premium of approximately $700,000 recorded on the acquired loans based on the market valuation of the loans. The remainder of the increase of $12.4 million was due to internal loan growth primarily in the consumer and commercial portfolios. Securities increased approximately $5.2 million from $37.8 million at March 31, 2003 to $43.0 million at September 30, 2003 primarily due to the acquisition of $9.5 million of securities in connection with the acquisition of First Federal offset by maturities, calls and principal repayments of $4.1 million and a decrease in the market value of these available for sale securities of approximately $200,000. Deposits increased $71.2 million from $190.2 million at March 31, 2003 to $261.4 million at September 30, 2003. The increase was due primarily to the acquisition of First Federal. Deposits acquired from First Federal totaling $56.7 million. The remainder of the increase of $14.5 million was a result of internal deposit growth. The increase in deposits was used to fund loan growth. Total stockholders' equity was $32.6 million at September 30, 2003 compared to $25.4 million at March 31, 2003. The increase was due primarily to the issuance of additional shares of the Company's stock in connection with the acquisition of First Federal. The increase was also due to net income recorded for the period offset by a decrease in the market value of available for sale securities and cash dividends paid. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS - -------------------------- When used in this Form 10-QSB and in future filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), in the Company's press releases or other public or shareholder communications, and in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases "will likely result", "are expected to", "will continue", "is anticipated", "estimate", "project" or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including changes in economic conditions in the Company's market area including unemployment levels and plant closings, changes in real estate values in the Company's market area, changes in policies by regulatory 13 agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the Company's market area and competition, the failure to achieve anticipated merger cost savings or difficulty in merger integration, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements. The Company does not undertake - and specifically declines any obligation - to publicly release the result of any revisions, which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE AND SIX - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 AND 2002 - ---------------------------------------- GENERAL. The Company's results of operations depend primarily upon the level of net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on its interest-earning assets such as loans and investments, and the costs of the Company's interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and borrowings. Results of operations are also dependent upon the level of the Company's non-interest income, including fee income and service charges, and affected by the level of its non-interest expenses, including its general and administrative expenses. Net interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them, respectively. The Company reported net income of $905,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to net income of $729,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in net income of $176,000 between the two periods was primarily the result of an increase in net interest income of $729,000, an increase in non-interest income of $183,000 and a decrease in provision for loss on loans of $4,000 partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense of $649,000 and an increase in income taxes of $91,000. The Company reported net income of $1.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to net income of $1.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in net income of $267,000 between the two periods was primarily the result of an increase in net interest income of $915,000 and an increase in non-interest income of $319,000 and a decrease in provision for loss on loans of $118,000 offset by an increase in non-interest expense of $953,000 and an increase in income taxes of $132,000. INTEREST INCOME. Total interest income increased $898,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and increased $1.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the three and six months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in interest income for the three and six-month period was due to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $92.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and an increase of $57.8 for the six-month period offset by a decrease in the yield earned on interest-earning assets. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was due primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans and securities primarily as a result of the 14 acquisition of First Federal. The average yield on interest-earning assets was 6.1% and 6.3% for the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 7.0% for the same periods in 2002. Tax equivalent adjustments were made to the yield. The decrease in the yield was due to a decrease in market interest rates between the two periods. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased $169,000 and $118,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same periods in 2002. Interest expense increased for the periods primarily due to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities offset by a decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $87.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and $54.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the same periods in 2002. The increase in these balances is primarily the result of an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits and FHLB borrowings due primarily to the acquisition of First Federal. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was 2.2% and 2.3% for the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 2.8% for the three and six months ended September 30, 2002. The resulting interest rate spread was 3.9% and 4.0% for the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 4.2% for the same periods in 2002. The Company's interest rate spread has declined primarily due to the incorporation of First's Federal balance sheet. Over time, management intends to change the composition of the former First Federal balance sheet to a mix more similar to that of the Company's other interest-bearing assets and liabilities. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The Company's provision for loan losses totaled $46,000 and $92,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $50,000 and $210,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2002 based on management's overall assessment of the loan portfolio. The provision recorded for the three and six-month period was based on management's evaluation of the Company's current portfolio including factors such as the quality of the portfolio, the increase in loans that are not secured by 1-4 family real estate, the level of non-performing loans, charge-off history, peer data and overall growth in the loan portfolio. Management continually monitors the Company's allowance for loan losses and makes adjustments as economic conditions, portfolio quality and portfolio diversity dictates. Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level which the Board considers to be adequate to provide for probable losses on existing loans, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required for future periods. NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income increased approximately $183,000 and $319,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the same periods in 2002. The increase for the three and six-month periods is primarily the result of an increase in service charges and other fees on deposits of $110,000 for the three-month period and an increase of $205,000 for the six-month period. The remainder of the increase was due to an increase in other income for the three-month period of $72,000 and an increase of $117,000 for the six-month period. The increase in service charges and other fees on deposits for the periods is the result of increased deposit accounts. The increase in other non-interest income is due to an increase in the referral fees earned on secondary market loans, letter of credit fees and commissions on insurance sold with loans. 15 NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Non-interest expenses increased $649,000 and $953,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Non-interest expenses increased for the three-month period due to an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $165,000, an increase in occupancy and equipment expense of $81,000, an increase in advertising expense of $70,000, an increase in communications expense of $21,000, an increase in deposit and franchise taxes of $6,000, an increase in professional fees of $39,000, an increase in stationery, printing and supplies of $45,000 and an increase in other operating expenses of $221,000. Non-interest expenses increased for the six-month period due to an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $308,000, an increase in occupancy and equipment expense of $109,000, an increase in advertising expense of $82,000, an increase in communications expense of $35,000, an increase in deposit and franchise taxes of $12,000, an increase in professional fees of $49,000, an increase in stationery, printing and supplies of $63,000 and an increase in other operating expenses of $294,000. Employee compensation and benefits increased primarily due an increase in the number of employees as a result of the First Federal acquisition; an increase in costs related to incentive-based compensation programs; and an increase in ESOP expense due to the increase in the average market price of the Company's stock. Occupancy and equipment expense increased primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense as a result of increased locations, improvements to existing facilities, and upgrades in equipment. The increase in other operating expenses was due partially to increased expenses as a result of the acquisition of First Federal and the remainder of the increase was due to increased costs related to technology for various services provided to customers. The Company recently upgraded its on-line banking product and also upgraded its operating environment so that customers may obtain real-time balances at automated teller machines and point of sale terminals. INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expense increased $91,000 and $132,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2003 primarily due to an increase in income before income taxes for the periods. NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES - --------------------------------------------------- The allowance for loan losses is calculated based upon management's evaluation and assessment of pertinent factors underlying the types and qualities of the Company's loans. The assessment includes internal risk grading of all commercial credits and based upon this evaluation, a specific allocation allowance may be assigned to individual loans. Consumer and residential mortgage loans are not specifically graded unless apparent weakness is determined through payment history at which time a specific allowance allocation may be made. Unallocated allowance estimates are given to each lending segment based upon historical loss and peer loss information. An unallocated portion of the allowance is assigned in recognition of inherent risks that include current delinquency trends, current economic trends both local and national, strength of supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, trends of non-performing assets to the allowance and concentrations within commercial credits. These factors are weighed quarterly and adjusted as deemed appropriate by management. The Company has not materially changed any aspect of its overall approach in the determination of the allowance for loan losses and there have been no material changes in assumptions or estimations as compared to prior years that have impacted the basis of the current year allowance. 16 The Company's allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2003 was $2.6 million or 1.0% of the total loans. The March 31, 2003 allowance for loan loss was $2.0 million, or 1.0% of total loans. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $92,000 for the six-month period, and had net charge-offs of $321,000 for the six-month period. The loans charged off consisted largely of loans acquired from First Federal. The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets is an indicator of exposure to credit risk. Non-performing assets of the Company consist of non-accruing loans, accruing loans delinquent 90 days or more, and foreclosed assets, which have been acquired as a result of foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. For all periods presented the Company had no troubled debt restructurings. The following table sets forth the amount of non-performing assets at the periods indicated. September 30, 2003 March 31, 2003 ------------------ -------------- (Dollars in Thousands) Non-Accruing Loans ............................... $ 1,031 $ 600 Accruing Loans Delinquent 90 Days or More ........ 1,592 669 Foreclosed Assets ................................ 578 -- ---------- ---------- Total Non-Performing Assets ...................... $ 3,201 $ 1,269 Total Non-Performing Assets as a Percentage of Total Assets ........... 1.0% .5% Total non-performing assets increased $1.9 million from March 31, 2003 to September 30, 2003 due primarily to delinquent one to four family loans acquired in connection with the acquisition of First Federal. Management does not feel that this is an indication of a trend of increased non-performing assets for the Company. The problem credits with First Federal's portfolio were identified through pre-acquisition due diligence and reserved for appropriately. Management is attempting to resolve these credits at the earliest date. OTHER ASSETS OF CONCERN. Other than the non-performing assets set forth in the table above, as of September 30, 2003, there were no loans with respect to which known information about the possible credit problems of the borrowers or the cash flows of the security properties have caused management to have concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such items in the non-performing asset categories. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- The Company's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets are dependent on the Company's operating, financing, and investing activities. At September 30, 2003 and March 31, 2003, cash and cash equivalents totaled $16.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively. The Company's primary sources of funds include principal and interest payments on loans (both scheduled and prepayments), maturities of and interest payments on investment securities and principal and interest payments from mortgage-backed securities, deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati advances and other borrowings. While scheduled loan and mortgage-backed security repayments and proceeds from maturing investment securities are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early repayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions and competition. Certificates of 17 deposit as of September 30, 2003 maturing within one year totaled $83.8 million. Management believes based on experience that most of these funds will remain with the Company. Liquidity management is both a short- and long-term responsibility of management. The Company adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon management's assessment of expected loan demand, projected purchases of investment and mortgage-backed securities, expected deposit flows, yields available on other assets, and the liquidity goals of its asset/liability management program. Excess liquidity is generally invested in interest-bearing overnight deposits and other short-term liquid asset funds. If funds are required beyond the funds generated internally, the subsidiaries of the Company have the ability to borrow funds from the FHLB and other third parties. At September 30, 2003, the Company had $27.3 million in borrowings outstanding with the FHLB and additional borrowing capacity of $41.3 million. On a limited basis, the Company at times utilizes repurchase agreements for the generation of additional funds from our established relationship business customers. At September 30, 2003, the Company had $9.3 million of repurchase agreements with existing relationship based business customers. At September 30, 2003, the Company had outstanding commitments to fund loans of $22.7 million. The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current commitments principally through the use of current liquid assets and through its borrowing capacity with the FHLB.

The primary impact of inflation on the operations of the Company is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates, generally, have a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than does inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services. ITEM 3 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company has adopted interim disclosure controls and procedures designed to facilitate the Company's financial reporting. The interim disclosure controls currently consist of communications among the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and each department head to identify any transactions, events, trends, risks or contingencies which may be material to the Company's operations. Finally, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, the Audit Committee and the Company's independent auditors also meet on a quarterly basis and discuss the Company's material accounting policies. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of these interim disclosure controls as of the end of the period covered by this report and found them to be adequate. The Company maintains internal control over financial reporting. There have not been any significant changes in such internal control over financial reporting in the last quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. 19 PART II.
