        consolidated financial statements of Citizens Community Bancorp, Inc.
        and Subsidiaries (the "Company") contain all adjustments (consisting
        principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly
        the financial position at September 30, 2000, and the results of
        operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September
        30, 2000 and 1999 and the cash flows for the nine-month periods ended
        September 30, 2000 and 1999. The results of operations for the three and
        nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of
        the results to be expected for the full year.

        impaired loan with a remaining balance of $206,864 after $70,000 had
        been charged-off during the nine months ended September 30, 2000. During
        the nine months ending September 30, 2000, $9,797 in interest income was
        recognized and received. In addition an allowance of $50,000 has been
        established for this loan. No loans were identified as impaired at

(3)     EARNINGS PER SHARE. The following is a reconciliation of the numerators
        and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share
        computations. Options to purchase 204,477 shares of common stock between
        $7.75 and $9.50 a share issued in 2000, 1999 and 1998 were not included
        in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 computation of
        diluted EPS because the options exercise price was more than the average
        market price of the common shares. These options expire between August
        2008 and June 2010.

Hacker, Johnson & Smith PA, the Company's independent certified public
accountants, have made a limited review of the financial data as of September
30, 2000, and for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and
1999 presented in this document, in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

          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, 2000, and the related condensed consolidated statements of
earnings for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 and
1999, and the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders' equity for the
nine month period ended September 30, 2000 and cash flows for the nine-month
periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. 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, 1999, 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 14, 2000 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, 1999, is
fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance
sheet from which it has been derived.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

             COMPARISON OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND DECEMBER 31, 1999

The Company's primary source of cash during the nine months ended September 30,
2000 was from net deposit inflows and advances from Federal Home Loan Bank. Cash
was used primarily for loan originations. At September 30, 2000, the Company had
outstanding commitments to fund existing and new loans of $33.7 million. It is
expected that these requirements will be funded from the sources described
above. At September 30, 2000, the Bank exceeded its regulatory liquidity
requirements.

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

                CITIZENS COMMUNITY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

     COMPARISON OF THE THREE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999

   GENERAL. Net earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2000 were
      $185,000 or $.05 per basic and diluted share compared to net earnings of
      $209,000 or $.06 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended
      September 30, 1999. This increase in the Company's net earnings was
      primarily due to an increase in net interest income and noninterest
      income, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense all due to
      the overall growth of the Company.

   INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE. Interest income increased to $2,904,000 for the
      three months ended September 30, 2000 from $1,815,000 for the three months
      ended September 30, 1999. Interest income on loans increased to $2,600,000
      in 2000 due to an increase in the average loan portfolio balance for the
      three months ended September 30, 2000 to $115.6 million compared to $68.5
      million during the 1999 period and by an increase in the weighted-average
      yield from 8.29% in 1999 to 8.94% in 2000. Interest on securities
      increased to $266,000 in 2000 due to a increase in the average securities
      portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $18.3
      million from $15.2 million during 1999. Interest on other interest-earning
      assets decreased to $38,000 in 2000 due to a decrease in the average
      balance of such assets from 1999 to 2000.

      Interest expense on deposit accounts increased to $1,317,000 for the three
      months ended September 30, 2000 from $756,000 for the three months ended
      September 30, 1999. Interest expense increased primarily because of an
      increase in the average balance from 1999 to 2000 and an increase in the
      average rate paid on deposits. The average balance for the three months
      ended September 30, 2000 was $109.3 million compared to $77.8 million
      during 1999.

   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, 2000 and 1999 was $220,000 and $103,000,
      respectively. Management believes the balance in the allowance for loan
      losses of $1,266,000 at September 30, 2000 is adequate.

   NONINTEREST INCOME. Noninterest income increased to $371,000 in 2000 from
      $139,441 in 1999 primarily due to the increase in mortgage brokerage fees
      from CCB Mortgage Company and increases in service charges on deposit
      accounts in 2000.

   NONINTEREST EXPENSE. Total noninterest expense increased to $1,340,000 for
      the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $760,000 for the three
      months ended September 30, 1999, primarily due to an increase in employee
      compensation and benefits of $356,000 as well as an increase in other
      noninterest expense and occupancy and equipment expense. The primary
      reasons for the increased expenses were the inpart of CCB Mortgage
      Corporation and the additional expenses relating to opening our fourth
      branch office in August 2000.

   INCOME TAXES. The income tax provision for the three months ended September
      30, 2000 was $114,000, an effective rate of 38.2% compared to $126,100, an
      effective rate of 37.6% for the comparable 1999 period.

     COMPARISON OF THE NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999

   GENERAL. Net earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 were
      $675,000 or $.19 per basic and diluted share compared to net earnings of
      $447,000 or $.13 per basic and diluted share for the nine months ended
      September 30, 1999. 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.

   INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE. Interest income increased to $7,578,000 for the
      nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $4,846,000 for the nine months
      ended September 30, 1999. Interest income on loans increased to $6,590,000
      in 2000 due to an increase in the average loan portfolio balance for the
      nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $100.6 million compared to $59.4
      million during 1999 as well as an increase in the rate earned on the
      portfolio. Interest on securities increased to $807,000 in 2000 due to an
      increase in the average securities portfolio during the nine months ended
      September 30, 2000 to $18.6 million from $15.3 million during 1999.
      Interest on other interest-earning assets decreased to $181,000 in 2000
      primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of these assets from
      1999 to 2000 as the lower yielding assets were decreased to fund the
      growth in the higher-yielding loan portfolio.

      Interest expense on deposit accounts increased to $3,245,000 for the nine
      months ended September 30, 2000 from $1,945,000 for the nine months ended
      September 30, 1999. Interest expense on deposits increased primarily
      because of an increase in the average balance of deposits from 1999 to
      2000 as well as an increase in the rates paid on deposits. The average
      balance for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $98.2 million
      compared to $69.2 million during 1999.

   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 to
      $465,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $357,000 for
      the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

   NONINTEREST INCOME. Noninterest income increased to $1,219,000 in 2000 from
      $407,000 in 1999 primarily because of an increase in mortgage brokerage
      fees from CCB Mortgage Corporation and increases in service charges on
      deposit accounts in 2000.

   NONINTEREST EXPENSE. Total noninterest expense increased to $3,857,000 for
      the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from $2,258,000 for the nine
      months ended September 30, 1999, primarily due to an increase in employee
      compensation and benefits of $1,229,000. The year-over-year increases in
      operating expenses were due to the effect of CCB Mortgage Corporation and
      the additional costs related to opening our fourth branch office in August
      2000.

   INCOME TAXES. The income tax provision for the nine months ended September
      30, 2000 was $412,000, an effective rate of 37.9% compared to $246,000, an
      effective rate of 35.5% for the comparable 1999 period.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates.
The Company's market risk arises primarily from interest-rate risk inherent in
its lending and deposit taking activities. The Company has not engaged in and
therefore has no risk related to investment trading account activity,
commodities or foreign exchange.

Management actively monitors and manages its interest-rate risk exposure. The
primary objective in managing interest-rate risk is to limit, within established
guidelines, the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the Company's net
interest income and capital, while adjusting the Company's asset-liability
structure to obtain the maximum yield-cost spread on that structure. Management
relies primarily on its asset-liability structure to control interest rate risk.
However, a sudden and substantial increase in interest rates could adversely
impact the Company's earnings, to the extent that the interest rates borne by
assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or
on the same basis. There have been no significant changes in the Company's
market risk exposure since December 31, 1999.
