        Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)


(1) General.  Citizens  Community  Bancorp,  Inc.  (the  "Holding  Company") was
         incorporated  on May 24,  1995.  The Holding  Company  owns 100% of the
         outstanding  common stock of Citizens  Community  Bank (the "Bank") and
         Citizens  Financial Corp.  ("Citizens  Financial")  (collectively,  the
         "Company").  The Holding Company was organized  simultaneously with the
         Bank and its primary  business is the  ownership  and  operation of the
         Bank and  Citizens  Financial.  The Bank is a  Florida  state-chartered
         commercial  bank  and is  insured  by  the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance
         Corporation.  The Bank  opened  for  business  on March  8,  1996,  and
         provides  community  banking  services to businesses and individuals in
         Collier County,  Florida.  Citizens Financial was incorporated on March
         27, 1997 as a mortgage origination company, but is currently inactive.

(2) Loan  Impairment and Credit Losses.  No loans were identified as impaired at
         March 31, 1997 or March 31,  1998.  The activity in the  allowance  for
         loan losses was as follows:  

                                                     For the Three

(3) Earnings  Per  Common  Share. Earnings  per  share  ("EPS")  of common stock
         has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares
         of common stock outstanding.  For purposes of calculating  diluted EPS,
         the average  book value per share was used  because  there is no active
         trading  market  for the  Company's  common  stock.  For 1997 and 1996,
         outstanding warrants and stock options were not dilutive.

(4) Regulatory Capital.  The  Bank  is  required  to  maintain  certain  minimum
         regulatory  capital  requirements.  The following is a summary at March
         31, 1998 of the regulatory capital  requirements and the Bank's capital
         on a percentage basis:

                                                 Ratios of       Regulatory
                                                 the Bank        Requirement

Total capital to risk-weighted assets .........   14.38%            8.00%

Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets ........   13.32%            4.00%

Tier I capital to total assets - leverage ratio    7.66%            4.00%

(5) Impact  of  New  Accounting  Principle. On January 1, 1998, the Bank adopted
         Statement   ofFinancial    Accounting   Standards   130   -   Reporting
         Comprehensive   Income  which   establishes   standards  for  reporting
         comprehensive  income. The Standard defines comprehensive income as the
         change  in  equity  of  an  enterprise   except  those  resulting  from
         stockholder  transactions.  All components of comprehensive  income are
         required to be reported in a new financial  statement that is displayed
         with equal prominence as existing financial statements. The Bank has no
         items  of  other  comprehensive   income,   therefore  a  statement  of
         comprehensive income is not presented.

                of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

               Comparison of March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997

Liquidity and Capital Resources
    The Company's primary source of cash during the three months ended March 31,
    1998 was from net deposit  inflows of  $13,597,739.  Cash was used primarily
    for loan originations and for the purchase of securities. At March 31, 1998,
    the Company had  outstanding  commitments  to fund existing and new loans of
    $9.2 million. It is expected that these requirements will be funded from the
    sources described above. At March 31, 1998, the Bank exceeded its regulatory
    liquidity requirements.

    The following  table shows  selected  ratios for the periods ended or at the
    dates indicated:

       Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended March 31, 1998 and 1997

Results of Operations:

   General. Net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 1998 were $24,201,
      or $.02 per basic and  diluted  share,  compared to net  earnings  for the
      three months ended March 31, 1997 of $5,929, or $.01 per basic and diluted
      share.  Earnings  increased  primarily  because  of growth of the  Company
      between March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1998.

   Interest  Income and  Expense.  Interest  income was  $930,878  for the three
      months ended March 31, 1998 compared to $434,216 for the  comparable  1997
      period.  Interest  income earned on loans for the 1998 period was $709,981
      compared  to  $289,388  for the 1997  period.  The  average  loan  balance
      outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was $29,628,718 with
      a weighted-average  yield of 9.51%. Interest earned on securities for 1998
      was $57,806 compared to $32,945 for the 1997 period.  For the 1998 period,
      the average  securities  portfolio was $3,657,369 with a  weighted-average
      yield of 6.03%. Interest on federal funds sold for the 1998 period totaled
      $163,091 compared to $111,883 for the 1997 period.  The average balance of
      federal funds sold was $12,043,700 during the 1998 period, with a weighted
      average yield of 5.42%.

      Interest  expense on deposits  amounted to $463,467  for the three  months
      ended March 31, 1998 compared to $208,501 for the 1997 period. The average
      balance for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was  $45,083,822 and the
      weighted average rate was 4.11%.

   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 the volume and type of lending  conducted by
      the Company,  industry  standards,  the amount of nonperforming  loans and
      general economic conditions,  particularly as they relate to the Company's
      market  areas,  and other  factors  related to the  collectibility  of the
      Company's loan  portfolio.  The provision for the three months ended March
      31, 1998 was $56,000 and the  allowance  was  $354,000 at March 31,  1998.
      Management believes the allowance at March 31, 1998 is adequate.

   Noninterest  Expense.  Noninterest  expense  totaled  $460,078  for the three
      months  ended March 31, 1998  compared  to $215,184  for the 1997  period.
      Compensation and benefits was the largest noninterest expense amounting to
      $223,329 for 1998  compared to $88,539 for 1997.  All  expenses  increased
      primarily because of the growth of the Company.

   Provision for Income  Taxes.  The income tax  provision  for the three months
      ended March 31, 1998 was $15,000 (an  effective  rate of 38%)  compared to
      $3,556 for 1997 (an effective rate of 37%).
