        consolidated  financial  statements of Citizens Community Bancorp,  Inc.

        principally of normal  recurring  accruals)  necessary to present fairly
        the  financial  position  at  September  30,  1999,  and the  results of
        operations for the  three-month  and nine-month  periods ended September
        30, 1999 and 1998 and the cash flows for the  nine-month  periods  ended
        September 30, 1999 and 1998. The results of operations for the three and
        nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not  necessarily  indicative of
        the results to be expected for the full year.

        at  September  30,  1999 or  September  30,  1998.  The  activity in the

(3)     Earnings Per 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.  Prior to the public stock offering in April,  1998,
        there was no public market for the Company=s  common stock. For purposes
        of calculating  diluted EPS the $7.50 stock offering price is assumed to
        be the market  price for the three and nine months ended  September  30,
        1998; for 1999 the calculation is based on actual trading activity.  For
        the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999  outstanding  options
        are considered  dilutive  securities for purposes of calculating diluted
        EPS which is computed  using the treasury  stock  method.  All per share
        amounts reflect the 8% stock dividend  effective  December 31, 1998. The
        following table presents the  calculations of EPS (dollars in thousands,
        except per share amounts).

               Review by Independent Certified Public Accountants



Hacker,  Johnson,  Cohen & Grieb PA, the Company's  independent certified public
accountants,  have made a limited  review of the financial  data as of September
30, 1999, and for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1999 and
1998 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

          Report on Review by Independent Certified Public Accountants



The Board of Directors
Citizens Community Bancorp, Inc.
Marco Island, Florida:

    We have reviewed the accompanying  condensed  consolidated  balance sheet of
Citizens  Community  Bancorp,  Inc.  and  Subsidiaries  (the  "Company")  as  of
September  30,  1999,  and the  related  condensed  consolidated  statements  of
earnings for the three- and  nine-month  periods  ended  September  30, 1999 and
1998, and the condensed  consolidated  statement of stockholders' equity for the
nine month period  ended  September  30, 1999 and cash flows for the  nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.  These  financial  statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.

    We conducted  our review 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 generally accepted auditing standards, 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 review,  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  generally  accepted   accounting
principles.

    We have previously  audited,  in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards,  the  consolidated  balance  sheet as of December 31,  1998,  and the
related  consolidated  statements of operations,  stockholders'  equity and cash
flows for the year then ended (not  presented  herein);  and in our report dated
January 29,  1999 we  expressed  an  unqualified  opinion on those  consolidated
financial  statements.  In  our  opinion,  the  information  set  forth  in  the
accompanying  condensed  consolidated  balance sheet as of December 31, 1998, is
fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance
sheet from which it has been derived.

             Comparison of September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998


Liquidity and Capital Resources
    The Company's  primary source of cash during the nine months ended September
    30,  1999 was from net deposit  inflows.  Cash was used  primarily  for loan
    originations and for the purchase of securities.  At September 30, 1999, the
    Company had outstanding  commitments to fund existing and new loans of $14.6
    million.  It is  expected  that these  requirements  will be funded from the
    sources  described  above.  At  September  30, 1999,  the Bank  exceeded its
    regulatory liquidity requirements.

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

     Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998

Results of Operations:

   General.  Net earnings for the three  months  ended  September  30, 1999 were
      $209,190 or $.06 per basic and diluted  share  compared to net earnings of
      $103,173 or $.03 per basic and diluted  share for the three  months  ended
      September  30,  1998.  This  increase in the  Company's  net  earnings was
      primarily due to an increase in net interest  income,  partially offset by
      an  increase  in  noninterest  expense  due to the  overall  growth of the
      Company.  Per  share  amounts  reflect  the 8%  stock  dividend  effective
      December 31, 1998.

   Interest  Income and Expense.  Interest  income  increased  by $673,394  from
      $1,141,447 for the three months ended September 30, 1998 to $1,814,841 for
      the three  months  ended  September  30,  1999.  Interest  income on loans
      increased $638,958 to $1,430,116 in 1999 due to an increase in the average
      loan  portfolio  balance for the three months ended  September 30, 1999 to
      $68.5 million  compared to $35.1 million during the 1998 period  partially
      offset by a decrease in the  weighted-average  yield from 8.95% in 1998 to
      8.34% in 1999.  Interest on  securities  increased  $69,091 to $228,659 in
      1999 due to a increase  in the  average  securities  portfolio  during the
      three months ended  September 30, 1999 to $15.2 million from $10.1 million
      during 1998. Interest on other  interest-earning  assets decreased $34,655
      to $156,066 in 1999 due to a decrease in the average  yield of such assets
      from 1998 to 1999.

      Interest expense on deposit  accounts  increased to $755,682 for the three
      months ended  September  30, 1999 from $527,604 for the three months ended
      September 30, 1998.  Interest expense  increased  primarily  because of an
      increase in the average balance from 1998 to 1999. The average balance for
      the three months ended  September 30, 1999 was $77.8  million  compared to
      $42.7 million during 1998.

   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
      collectibility  of the  Company's  loan  portfolio.  The provision for the
      three months ended  September  30, 1999 and 1998 was $103,000 and $36,500,
      respectively.  Management  believes the balance in the  allowance for loan
      losses of $807,462 at September 30, 1999 is adequate.

   Noninterest  Income.  Noninterest  income  increased to $139,441 in 1999 from
      $117,458 in 1998  primarily  because of  increases  in service  charges on
      deposit accounts and a higher level of deposit accounts in 1999.

   Noninterest Expense. Total noninterest expense increased $230,287 to $760,212
      for the three months ended  September 30, 1999 from $529,925 for the three
      months ended September 30, 1998,  primarily due to an increase in employee
      compensation  and  benefits  of  $109,025  as well as an increase in other
      noninterest  expense and occupancy  and  equipment  expense all due to the
      overall growth of the Company.

   Provision for Income  Taxes.  The income tax  provision  for the three months
      ended  September  30,  1999 was  $126,198,  an  effective  rate of  37.63%
      compared to $61,703,  an effective rate of 37.4% for the  comparable  1998
      period.

                CITIZENS COMMUNITY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES


     Comparison of the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998


Results of Operations:

   General.  Net  earnings  for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1999 were
      $446,706 or $.13 per basic and diluted  share  compared to net earnings of
      $197,738 or $.07 per basic and $.06 per diluted  share for the nine months
      ended  September 30, 1998. This increase in the Company's net earnings was
      primarily due to an increase in net interest  income,  partially offset by
      an increase in  noninterest  expenses.  Per share  amounts  reflect the 8%
      stock dividend effective December 31, 1998.

   Interest Income and Expense.  Interest  income  increased  by  $1,699,241  to
      $4,846,281  for the nine months ended  September 30, 1999 from  $3,147,040
      for the nine months ended  September  30, 1998.  Interest  income on loans
      increased  $1,438,075  to  $3,710,293  in 1999 due to an  increase  in the
      average loan  portfolio  balance for the nine months ended  September  30,
      1999 to $59.4 million  compared to $32.1 million during 1998.  Interest on
      securities  increased  $278,677  to $654,762 in 1999 due to an increase in
      the average  securities  portfolio  during the nine months ended September
      30, 1999 to $15.3 million from $8.1 million during 1998  partially  offset
      by a decrease in the weighted-average yield from 6.22% in 1998 to 5.71% in
      1999.  Interest  on other  interest-earning  assets  decreased  $17,511 to
      $481,226 in 1999 primarily due to a decrease in the average yield of these
      assets from 1998 to 1999.

      Interest expense on deposit accounts  increased to $1,944,807 for the nine
      months ended  September 30, 1999 from $1,524,627 for the nine months ended
      September 30, 1998.  Interest expense  increased  primarily  because of an
      increase in the average balance of deposits from 1998 to 1999. The average
      balance for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1999 was $69.2  million
      compared to $43.0 million during 1998.

   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
      collectibility  of the Company's loan portfolio.  The provision  increased
      from $107,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $357,000 for
      the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

   Noninterest  Income.  Noninterest  income  increased to $406,529 in 1999 from
      $305,142 in 1998  primarily  because of  increases  in service  charges on
      deposit  accounts  in  1999,  partially  offset  by a  decrease  in  other
      noninterest income.

   Noninterest  Expense.   Total  noninterest   expense  increased  $747,401  to
      $2,258,219  for the nine months ended  September 30, 1999 from  $1,510,818
      for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, primarily due to an increase
      in employee  compensation  and benefits of $327,610 as well as an increase
      in occupancy and equipment  expenses,  advertising,  professional fees and
      data  processing and other  noninterest  expenses,  all due to the overall
      growth of the Company.

   Provision for Income  Taxes.  The income tax  provision  for the nine  months
      ended September 30, 1999 was $246,078, an effective rate of 35.5% compared
      to $111,499, an effective rate of 36.1% for the comparable 1998 period.

                                Year 2000 Issues


The  Company  is  acutely  aware of the many  areas  affected  by the Year  2000
computer  issue  and has  formed a Year  2000  committee  that is  charged  with
oversight  of  completing  the Year 2000  project  on a timely  basis.  Citizens
Community Bank  ("Citizens")  also has a Year 2000  committee  which is actively
involved in managing the Year 2000 computer  challenges,  following the guidance
provided by its regulatory  bodies and documented in the interagency  statements
issued by the Federal  Financial  Institutions  Examination  Council  ("FFIEC").
Citizens has a Year 2000  Technology  Plan,  approved by the Board of Directors,
which  includes  multiple  phases,  tasks to be  completed  and target dates for
completion. Issues addressed therein include awareness, assessment,  renovation,
validation, implementation, testing and contingency planning.

Citizens  routinely  upgrades and  purchases  technology  advanced  software and
hardware on a continual  basis.  All future  purchases and upgrades will be Year
2000 compliant. Citizens has determined that the cost of making modifications to
correct any Year 2000 issues will not  substantially  affect reported  operating
results.

Citizens' main service  provider  considers the awareness phase of its Year 2000
Project  to  be  substantially  complete  from  an  internal  standpoint.  Their
assessment phase of its Year 2000 Project is substantially complete for internal
mission critical systems.

The testing  phase of Citizens'  main service  provider  involved the testing of
various internal and external mission critical systems. The service provider has
completed  its  testing  phase of testing  its  internal  and  external  mission
critical  systems  and  services  with Year 2000 date  information.  The service
provider  substantially  completed  testing  of  mission  critical  systems  and
services as of June 30, 1999.

Citizens also  recognizes  the  importance of  determining  if its customers are
preparing for the Year 2000 problem in a timely manner to avoid deterioration of
the loan portfolio solely due to this issue. Significant relationships have been
identified and questionnaires  have been completed to assess the inherent risks.
Customers have received  statement  stuffers and informational  material in this
regard.  Citizens  plans to be prepared on a one-on-one  basis with  significant
borrowers  who have  been  identified  as having  high Year 2000 risk  exposure.
Citizens  stresses the importance of determining  that its major  depositors and
borrowers are ready to face the Year 2000 problem in order to avoid difficulties
surrounding the issue. Citizens plans to continue in its efforts to be active in
informing its customers of the Year 2000 issue.

Citizens has developed a contingency plan relative to the Year 2000 issues which
addresses a "worst case  scenario." The plan covers various options for handling
interruptions  of  the  internal  and  external  mission  critical  systems  and
services.  Citizens, for example, has developed plans for meeting unusually high
demands for cash generated by the publicity surrounding the Year 2000 issue. The
Contingency  Plan will be  continuously  monitored  to  incorporate  and address
various operational elements as needed. Furthermore,  Citizens' contingency plan
covers systems which can be handled manually on an interim basis. Should outside
service  providers  not be able to  provide  compliant  systems,  Citizens  will
terminate those relationships and transfer to other vendors.
