STATEFED FINANCIAL CORP. ANNOUNCES FIRST
QUARTER EARNINGS
DES MOINES, Iowa (NASDAQ: "SFFC") -- StateFed Financial Corporation, the parent
company of State Federal Savings and Loan Association of Des Moines, today
reported operating earnings of $210,612 for the quarter ended September 30,
2001.
Net income for the first quarter of the fiscal year totaled $143,372,
compared with $324,091 for the same period in 2000. Per share earnings amounted
to $.11 and $.11 on a diluted basis, compared with $0.22 and $0.22,
respectively, for the same quarter a year earlier. Several factors impacted
earnings as interest rates declined, refinance activity resulted in a decrease
in total loans and the bank embarked on several strategic initiatives essential
to improving its position in the marketplace.
Net interest income declined $137,037. The decrease was due primarily to
higher interest expense resulting from an increase in deposits of $12.9 million.
Interest income was lower reflecting a decline in total loans as a result of
refinance activity. Total non-interest expense was $122,280 higher in this
quarter compared with the same period in 2000 primarily as a result of costs
associated with the company's new location in Clive.
"The future growth and health of State Federal hinge on the execution of a
well-planned and articulated strategy," said Randall C. Bray, chairman of the
board. "We're making significant strides in repositioning the company to better
meet the needs of our customers with more appealing and convenient locations as
well as newly developed products designed for homeowners. We believe these
investments in refocusing State Federal will ultimately enhance our financial
performance."

In November, State Federal is introducing Homeowners Choice, a complete
line of mortgage, home equity and checking services specially designed for
homeowners. This new product line expands the bank's service offerings while
continuing to serve homeowners.
"We recognize that to compete we need to offer our customers a much broader
array of lending options as well as investments and other financial services,"
Bray added. "Our Homeowners Choice product line will reward our customers for
bringing all of their home financing needs to us."
Another chief objective of State Federal is to build core deposits. Core
deposits are $12.9 million higher than at the same time a year ago. During the
past quarter, the company added $3.7 million in new deposits while Federal Home
Loan Bank advances declined by nearly $9 million.
As of September 30, 2001, State Federal reported 1,277,326 shares
outstanding. The Corporation's stock is traded on the NASDAQ Small-Cap Market
under the symbol "SFFC".
