Note 1. Basis of Presentation
- -----------------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Ocean Financial Corp. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Ocean Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank") and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Ocean Federal Realty Inc. and Ocean Investment Services, Inc.

The interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the
periods presented.  The results of operations for the three months ended March
31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be
expected for all of 1998.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997.

Directors on April 22, 1998 and payable on May 15, 1998 to common stockholders

Note 3. Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
- --------------------------------------------------

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (SFAS 130).  SFAS 130 establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
in a full set of general purpose financial statements.  Under SFAS 130,
comprehensive income is divided into net income and other comprehensive income.
Other comprehensive income includes items previously recorded directly in
equity, such as unrealized gains or losses on securities available for sale.
Comparative financial statements provided for earlier periods have been
reclassified to conform with the provisions of this Statement.

SFAS 130 requires total comprehensive income and its components to be displayed
on the face of a financial statement for annual financial statements.  For
interim financial statements, SFAS 130 requires only total comprehensive income
to be reported and allows such disclosure to be presented in the notes to the
interim financial statements.

                                       5
<PAGE>
 
For the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 total comprehensive
income amounted to $3,665,000 and $3,350,000, respectively.

In February 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 132 "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions
and Other Postretirement Benefits" (SFAS 132).  SFAS 132 revises employers'
disclosures about pension and other postretirement benefit plans.  It does not
change the measurement or recognition of those plans.  It standardizes the
disclosure requirements for pensions and other postretirement benefits to the
extent practicable, requires additional information about changes in the benefit
obligations and fair value of plan assets that will facilitate financial
analysis, and eliminates certain required disclosures of previous accounting
pronouncements. SFAS 132 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997.  Earlier application is encouraged.  Restatement of disclosures for
earlier periods provided for comparative purposes is required unless the
information is not readily available.  AS SFAS 132 affects disclosure
requirements, it is not expected to have an impact on the financial statements
of the Company.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations

Financial Condition

Total assets at March 31, 1998 were $1.518 billion, an increase of $7.5 million,
compared to $1.511 billion at December 31, 1997.

Investment securities available for sale decreased by $33.8 million, to a
balance of $173.5 million at March 31, 1998, compared to a balance of $207.4
million at December 31, 1997, and mortgage-backed securities available for sale
decreased by $8.5 million, to $448.7 million at March 31, 1998, from $457.1
million at December 31, 1997.  The investment and mortgage-backed securities
available for sale portfolios decreased in order to fund growth in the Bank's
loans receivable. Loans receivable, net, increased by $39.9 million, or 5.1%, to
a balance of $823.6 million at March 31, 1998, compared to a balance of $783.7
million at December 31, 1997. The increase was largely attributable to robust
residential loan growth (including mortgage refinance activity) in the Bank's
market area, as well as commercial lending (including commercial real estate)
initiatives which accounted for $6.4 million of this growth. Included in the
residential loan growth is $16.3 million of 30 year fixed rate mortgage loans
which the Bank retained in portfolio.  In the past, the Bank has often sold this
product into the secondary market.  The Bank intends to fund $15.0 million of
these loans with repurchase agreements with an approximate term of seven years,
thus mitigating part of the interest rate risk associated with retaining these
mortgages.

Total deposits at March 31, 1998 were $987.2 million, an increase of $10.4
million, compared to $976.8 million at December 31, 1997.  Stockholders' equity
at March 31, 1998 was $216.0 million, compared to $215.5 million at December 31,
1997.  The Company repurchased 85,793 shares of common stock during the quarter
for $ 3.1 million, completing the 5% repurchase program announced in October
1997.

Results of Operations

General

Net income increased to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998
as compared to net income of $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31,
1997

Interest Income

Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was $26.2 million,
compared to $22.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997, an increase
of $3.7 million, or 16.3%.  The increase in interest income was the result of an
increase in the average balance of loans receivable which increased by $113.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998, as compared to the same prior
year period.  Also, the average size of the investment and mortgage-backed
securities available for sale portfolios increased due to the investment of
funds received from increased wholesale borrowings.  The increase in interest
income was further augmented by an increase in the yield on average interest
earning assets, which improved to 7.20% on average in the first quarter of 1998,
from 7.02% on average in the first quarter of 1997.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was $15.1 million,
compared to $12.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997, an increase
of $3.1 million, or 25.9%.  The increase in interest expense was primarily the
result of an increase in the average outstanding balance of total borrowings
(Federal Home Loan Bank and securities sold under agreements to repurchase)
which increased by $178.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 as
compared to the same prior year period and a smaller average increase in
deposits.  The increase in wholesale borrowings was part of a leverage strategy
adopted in late 1996 to improve returns on invested capital.  The borrowings
were invested in investment and mortgage-backed securities.  The average cost of
interest bearing liabilities increased to 4.79% for the three months ended March
31, 1998, as compared to 4.55% for the same prior year period due to a greater
percentage increase in higher cost wholesale funding over retail deposit
funding.

Provision for Loan Losses

For the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Company's provision for loan
losses was $225,000, unchanged from the same prior year period.  The Company's
non-performing assets declined by $1.6 million at March 31, 1998 as compared to
March 31, 1997 allowing for stable provisions despite loan growth.

Other Income

Other income was $621,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998, compared to
$586,000 for the same prior year period.  Other income increased $54,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the same prior year period due to
a rise in earnings from corporate owned life insurance as these balances
increased to $17.8 million at March 31, 1998 as compared to $8.0 million at
March 31, 1997.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998,
an increase of $521,000 compared to the same prior year period.  The increase
was primarily due to higher non-cash charges of $267,000 relating to the
Employee Stock Ownership Plan and expenses associated with the stock awards
granted to directors and officers under the 1997 Incentive Plan effective
February 4, 1997.  Additionally, marketing expense increased by $202,000 as the
Bank aggressively promoted its new retail checking products.

Provision for Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998
and 1997.  The effective tax rate, however, declined to 36.1% for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 from 37.4% for the same prior year period due to
reduced state taxes and higher amounts of non taxable income from corporate
owned life insurance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest
payments on loans, FHLB and other borrowings and, to a lesser extent, investment
maturities and proceeds from the sale of loans.  While scheduled amortization of
loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments
are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and
competition.  The Company has other sources of liquidity if a need for
additional funds arises, including an overnight line of credit and advances from
the FHLB.

At March 31, 1998, the Company had $13.6 million of outstanding overnight
borrowings from the FHLB, representing a decrease from $20.4 million at December
31, 1997.  The Company utilizes the overnight line from time to time to fund
short-term liquidity needs.  The Company also borrowed $288.9 million at March
31, 1998 through securities sold under agreements to repurchase, an increase
from $288.2 million at December 31, 1997.  These borrowings were used to fund a
wholesale leverage strategy designed to improve returns on invested capital.

The Company's cash needs for the three months ended March 31, 1998, were
principally provided by maturities of investment securities available for sale,
principal payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities and increased
deposits. The cash provided was principally used for investing activities, which
included the purchase of investment and mortgage-backed securities and the
origination of loans.  For the three months ended March 31, 1997, the cash needs
of the Company were primarily satisfied by principal payments on loans and
mortgage-backed securities, FHLB borrowings and increased deposits.  The cash
was principally utilized for loan originations and purchases of investment and
mortgage-backed securities.

Federal regulations require the Bank to maintain minimum levels of liquid
assets.  The required percentage has varied from time to time based upon
economic conditions and savings flows and is currently 4% of net withdrawable
savings deposits and borrowings payable on demand or in one year or less during
the preceding calendar month.  Liquid assets for purposes of this ratio include
cash, accrued interest receivable, certain time deposits, U.S. Treasury and
Government agencies and other securities and obligations generally having
remaining maturities of less than five years.  The levels of these assets are
dependent on the Bank's operating, financing, lending and investing activities
during any given period.  As of March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the Bank's
liquidity ratios were 7.5% and 9.8%, respectively, both in excess of the minimum
regulatory requirement.

At March 31, 1998, the Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements
with tangible capital of $184.2 million, or 12.3%, of total adjusted assets,
which is above the required level of $22.6 million or 1.5%; core capital of
$184.2 million or 12.3% of total adjusted assets, which is above the required
level of $45.1 million, or 3.0%; and risk-based capital of $190.8 million, or
29.5% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the required level of $51.8
million or 8.0%.  The Bank is considered a "well capitalized" institution under
the Office of Thrift Supervision's prompt corrective action regulations.
