AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (1) GENERAL. OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. (the "Holding Company") is a one-bank holding company and owns 100% of OptimumBank.com, doing business as OptimumBank (the "Bank"), a state (Florida)-chartered commercial bank (collectively, the "Company"). The Holding Company's only business is the operation of the Bank. The Bank's deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank offers a variety of community banking services to individual and corporate customers through its three banking offices located in Broward County, Florida. The Holding Company was formed on March 23, 2004 and on April 29, 2004, the Bank's stockholders approved a plan of corporate reorganization under which the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Holding Company. Effective May 6, 2004, the Bank's stockholders exchanged their common shares for shares of the Holding Company. As a result, all of the previously issued $2.50 par value common shares of the Bank were exchanged for 2,633,310 shares of the $.01 par value common shares of the Holding Company. The Holding Company's acquisition of the Bank has been accounted for as a combination of entities under common control at historical cost, similar to a pooling of interests and, accordingly, the financial data for all periods presented include the results of the Bank. In the opinion of the management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position at March 31, 2004, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. (2) LOAN IMPAIRMENT AND CREDIT LOSSES. The activity in the allowance for loan losses was as follows (in thousands): THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ----------------- 2004 2003 ---- ---- Balance at beginning of period $ 492 288 Provision for loan losses 30 35 ----- ----- Balance at end of period $ 522 323 ===== ===== The Bank had no impaired loans, nonaccrual loans or loans which were over ninety days past due but still accruing interest in 2004 or 2003. (continued) 6 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED), CONTINUED (3) REGULATORY CAPITAL. The Bank is required to maintain certain minimum regulatory capital requirements. The following is a summary at March 31, 2004 of the regulatory capital requirements and the Bank's capital on a percentage basis: PERCENTAGE OF REGULATORY THE BANK REQUIREMENT -------- ----------- Tier I capital to total average assets 11.00% 4.00% Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets 16.50% 4.00% Total capital to risk-weighted assets 17.06% 8.00% (4) EARNINGS PER SHARE. Basic earnings per share has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share were computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding stock options, computed using the treasury stock method. Earnings per common share have been computed based on the following: THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, -------------------- 2004 2003 ---- ---- Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate basic earnings per common share 2,622,037 2,600,659 Effect of dilutive stock options 56,540 29,106 --------- --------- Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate diluted earnings per common share 2,678,577 2,629,765 ========= ========= (5) STOCK OPTIONS. The Company established a Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") for officers, directors and employees of the Company and reserved 522,000 shares of common stock for the Plan. Both incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options may be granted under the Plan. The exercise price of the stock options is determined by the board of directors at the time of grant, but cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The options vest over three and five years. The options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. (continued) 7 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC.

A summary of the activity in the Company's stock option plan is as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts): RANGE OF WEIGHTED- PER SHARE AVERAGE AGGREGATE NUMBER OF OPTION EXERCISE OPTION SHARES PRICE PRICE PRICE ------ ----- ----- ----- Outstanding at December 31, 2003 287,000 $ 5.00-8.20 $ 5.72 $ 1,643 Exercised (17,334) 5.00-6.75 5.20 (90) ------- ------ Outstanding at March 31, 2004 269,666 $ 5.00-8.20 $ 5.76 $ 1,553 ======= =========== ====== ======= The Company accounts for their stock option plan under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net earnings, as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price which approximated the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure to stock-based employee compensation (in thousands, except per share amounts).

The transaction is expected to be consummated in the third quarter of 2004. 8 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY REVIEW BY INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS Hacker, Johnson & Smith PA, the Company's independent accountants, have made a limited review of the interim financial data as of March 31, 2004, and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, presented in this document, in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Their report furnished pursuant to Article 10 of Regulation S-X is included herein. 9 INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. Plantation, Florida: We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of OptimumBank Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of March 31, 2004, and the related condensed consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated January 31, 2004, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived. /s/ Hacker, Johnson & Smith PA HACKER, JOHNSON & SMITH PA Fort Lauderdale, Florida April 29, 2004 10 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF MARCH 31, 2004 AND DECEMBER 31, 2003 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's primary sources of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2004 were from net deposit inflows of approximately $9.9 million and a net decrease in loans of approximately $1.2 million. Cash was used primarily to repay other borrowings of approximately $1.3 million and Federal Home Loan Bank advances of approximately $1.9 million. At March 31, 2004, the Company had time deposits of $33.3 million that mature in one year or less. At March 31, 2004, the Company exceeded its regulatory liquidity requirements. Management believes that, if so desired, it can adjust the rates on time deposits to retain or attract deposits in a changing interest-rate environment. The following table shows selected information for the periods ended or at the dates indicated: THREE MONTHS THREE MONTHS ENDED YEAR ENDED ENDED MARCH 31, DECEMBER 31, MARCH 31, 2004 2003 2003 -------------- --------------- ---------------- Average equity as a percentage of average assets 10.66% 13.62% 17.73% Equity to total assets at end of period 10.82% 11.02% 16.91% Return on average assets (1) 1.21% .95% .87% Return on average equity (1) 11.35% 6.99% 4.90% Noninterest expenses to average assets (1) 2.00% 2.03% 2.24% Nonperforming loans to total assets at end of period -- -- -- ------------ (1) Annualized for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. 11 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND AGGREGATE CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS The Company 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. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and undisbursed loans in process. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of the Company's involvement in particular classes of financial instruments. The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and undisbursed loans in process is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. 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. Because some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Commitments to extend credit typically result in loans with a market interest rate when funded. A summary of the amounts of the Company's financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at March 31, 2004, follows (in thousands): ESTIMATED CONTRACT CARRYING FAIR AMOUNT AMOUNT VALUE Commitments to extend credit $ 14,223 -- -- ======== ======== ========= Undisbursed loans in process $ 2,333 -- -- ======== ======== ========= Management believes that the Company has adequate resources to fund all of its commitments and that substantially all its existing commitments will be funded in 2004. 12 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC.

(4) Net interest margin is net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. 13 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPARISON OF THE THREE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 AND 2003 GENERAL. Net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2004, were $424,000 or $.16 per basic and diluted share compared to net earnings of $171,000 or $.07 per basic and diluted share for the period ended March 31, 2003. This increase in the Company's net earnings was primarily due to an increase in net interest income and noninterest income which was partially offset by an increase in noninterest expenses, both of which were due to the overall growth of the Company. INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Interest income on loans increased to $1.9 million due primarily to an increase in the average loan portfolio balance for the three months ended March 31, 2004, partially offset by a decrease in the average yield earned from 7.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to 6.74% for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Interest on securities increased to $194,000 due primarily to an increase in the average balance and an increase in the average yield earned on the securities portfolio in 2004. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense on deposit accounts increased to $683,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, from $479,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Interest expense increased primarily because of an increase in the average balance of deposits during 2004, partially offset by a decrease in the average rate paid on deposits during 2004. Interest expense on borrowings increased to $268,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $110,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 due to an increase in the average balance of borrowings. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The provision for loan losses is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance to a level deemed appropriate by management and is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Company, industry standards, the amount of nonperforming loans, general economic conditions, particularly as they relate to the Company's market areas, and other factors related to the estimated collectibility of the Company's loan portfolio. The provision for the three months ended March 31, 2004, was $30,000 compared to $35,000 for the same period in 2003. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan losses of $522,000 at March 31, 2004, is adequate. NONINTEREST INCOME. Total noninterest income increased to $221,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, from $64,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, primarily due to an increase in prepayment fees collected of $139,000. NONINTEREST EXPENSES. Total noninterest expenses increased to $702,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $442,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $157,000, an increase in occupancy and equipment of $49,000, and an increase in other expenses of $23,000 all due to the continued growth of the Company. INCOME TAXES. Income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2004, were $261,000 (an effective rate of 38.1%) compared to income taxes of $105,000 (an effective rate of 38.0%) for the three months ended March 31, 2003. 14 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC.

CHANGES IN SECURITIES Effective May 6, 2004, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated March 23, 2004 (the "Agreement") between the Holding Company and the Bank, and approved by the shareholders of the Bank at its annual meeting of shareholders held on April 29, 2004, the Holding Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Bank in a statutory share exchange transaction. Under the terms of the Agreement, the shares of the Bank's common stock were exchanged for shares of the Holding Company on a one-for-one basis. As a result, the Bank became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Holding Company and the shareholders of the Bank became shareholders of the Holding Company. Differences in Shareholder Rights. The rights of the holders of the Bank's common stock are governed by Florida and federal banking laws, the Florida Business Corporation Act ("FBCA"), by the Bank's articles of incorporation and by-laws and by applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The rights of the holders of the Holding Company's common stock are governed by the FBCA, by the Holding Company's articles of incorporation and by-laws, by Federal banking laws, and by the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the NASDAQ SmallCap Market. The articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Holding Company and the Bank are substantially similar in all material provisions, except with respect to provisions in the Bank's articles of incorporation and bylaws required by the Florida banking statutes which are applicable only to banks. Certain differences in shareholder rights arise from this change of governing law. The material differences are summarized below. 15 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES, CONTINUED Payment of Dividends. The Florida banking laws impose restrictions on the payment of dividends by Florida chartered banks. Pursuant to Florida banking statutes, a state-chartered bank may pay dividends only out of its undivided profits and may not declare a cash dividend, unless it has surplus in an amount equal to its paid-in capital stock after payment of the cash dividend unless the bank transfers at least 20% of its income to surplus. The FBCA, applicable to the Holding Company, generally provides that a Florida corporation may declare and pay dividends on its outstanding stock so long as the corporation is not insolvent and would not become insolvent as a consequence of the dividend payment. Although the Holding Company's ability to pay dividends is not subject to the restrictions imposed upon the Bank, such restrictions indirectly affect the Holding company because dividends from the Bank will be a primary source of the Holding Company's funds for the payment of dividends to shareholders of the Holding Company. Dividend payments by a bank or holding company are further and similarly limited by federal law. Federal law prohibits a bank or holding company from paying a dividend if the dividend payment would result in the bank or holding company failing to meet any of its minimum capital requirements. Moreover, the FDIC has issued policy statements which provide that bank holding companies and insured depository institutions generally should only pay dividends out of current operating earnings. Rights of Issuer to Issue Stock. The Bank may issue additional common stock up to the amount in its articles of incorporation, but only with the prior approval of the Florida Office of Financial Regulation. The Holding Company may issue additional common stock up to the amount in its articles of incorporation without regulatory approval. Rights of Issuer to Repurchase Stock. The Bank may repurchase its stock, but only with the prior approval of the Florida Office of Financial Regulation. Under the FBCA, no prior approval is required and, therefore, the Holding Company is allowed to purchase its own stock in the open market subject to applicable law and the availability of funds for repurchase. The Federal Reserve Board, however, is required to receive written notice when a bank holding company purchases or redeems its outstanding equity securities if the holding company does not meet certain conditions. During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company sold 475 shares of common stock at $9.15 per share to its outside directors under the Company's non-employee director compensation stock purchase plan. The shares were purchased by the directors with their fees for attending board of director meetings. The shares are exempt from registration under Section 3(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 which contains an exemption for securities issued by a bank. 16 OPTIMUMBANK HOLDINGS, INC.
