NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
----------------------------------------------------
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 and six months ended
June 30, 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.
Note 2. Earnings per Share
- ---------------------------
Amounts per common share for prior periods have been adjusted for the two-for-

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 June 30, 1998 and 1997 total comprehensive
income amounted to $3,706,000 and $3,515,000, respectively. For the six month
periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, total comprehensive income amounted to
$7,491,000 and $6,865,000, 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.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, and for hedging activities.
SFAS No. 133 supersedes the disclosure requirements in SFAS No. 80, 105 and 119.
This statement is effective for periods after June 15, 1999. The adoption of
SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material impact on the financial position
or results of operations of the Company.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Financial Condition
Total assets at June 30, 1998 were $1.538 billion, an increase of $27.3 million,
compared to $1.511 billion at December 31, 1997.
Investment securities available for sale decreased by $23.6 million, to a
balance of $183.8 million at June 30, 1998, compared to a balance of $207.4
million at December 31, 1997, and mortgage-backed securities available for sale
decreased by $64.8 million, to $392.3 million at June 30, 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 $86.8 million, or 11.1%,
to a balance of $870.5 million at June 30, 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 $11.7 million of this growth. Included in the
residential loan growth is $39.5 million of 30 year fixed rate mortgage loans
which the Bank retained in portfolio, while $13.1 million of 30-year fixed rate
mortgage loans were sold. In the past, the Bank has often sold most of this
product into the secondary market. Of the loans retained, the Bank funded $29.2
million with repurchase agreements with approximate terms of three to seven
years, mitigating part of the interest rate risk associated with retaining these
mortgages.
Total deposits at June 30, 1998 were $1.013 billion, an increase of $36.4
million, compared to $976.8 million at December 31, 1997. On June 29, 1998, the
Company completed the purchase of $10.7 million in deposit balances from Summit
Bank's Whiting, New Jersey branch, for a deposit premium of $1.0 million.
Stockholders' equity at June 30, 1998 was $210.9 million, compared to $215.5
million at December 31, 1997. The Company repurchased 171,586 shares of common
stock during the first quarter for $ 3.1 million, completing the 5% repurchase
program announced in October 1997. Additionally, during the second quarter of
1998, the Company loaned $8.2 million to the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership
Plan ("ESOP" or the "Plan") which enabled the ESOP trustee to purchase 422,500
shares of common stock. After the initial 12 year ESOP term expires in year
2008, these shares will begin to be allocated to employees covered by the Plan
at which time they will be expensed by the Company.
Results of Operations
General
Net income decreased to $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 as
compared to net income of $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997.
For the six months ended June 30, 1998 net income decreased to $6.7 million from
$6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997.
Interest Income
Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was $26.2 million,
compared to $24.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997, an increase
of $1.9 million, or 7.9%. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, interest
income was $52.4 million compared to $46.9 million for the same period in 1997,
an increase of $5.6 million or 11.9%. The increases in interest income were the
result of increases in the average balance of loans receivable which increased
by $143.6 million and $128.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30,
1998, respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods. For the three
months ended June 30, 1998, the yield on earning assets remained constant at
7.12%, as compared to the same period in 1997 as declines in yields for loans
and investments and mortgage-backed securities were offset by a shift in the
asset mix from lower yielding securities to higher yielding loans receivable.
For the six months ended June 30, 1998, interest income was augmented by an
increase in the yield on average interest earning assets, which improved to
7.16% on average in the first six months of 1998, from 7.07% on average in the
first six months of 1997. Increased yields on mortgage-backed securities and a
change in the mix of earning assets to whole loans accounted for the increased
yield.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was $15.3 million,
compared to $13.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997, an increase
of $1.8 million, or 13.3%. For the six months ended June 30, 1998 interest
expense was $30.5 million compared to $25.5 million for the same period in 1997,
an increase of $4.9 million or 19.2%. The increases in interest expense were
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 $97.3 million and $137.5 million for the three
and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the same prior
year periods 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. Proceeds from the borrowings were invested
in mortgage loans and investment
7
<PAGE>
and mortgage-backed securities. The average cost of interest bearing
liabilities increased to 4.78% for both the three and six months ended June 30,
1998, as compared to 4.71% and 4.64%, respectively, for the same prior year
periods, due to a greater percentage increase in higher cost wholesale funding
over retail deposit funding.
Provision for Loan Losses
For the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company's provision for
loan losses was $225,000 and $450,000, respectively, unchanged from the same
prior year periods. The Company's non-performing assets declined by $1.8
million at June 30, 1998 as compared to June 30, 1997 allowing for stable
provisions despite loan growth.
Other Income
Other income increased to $1.1 million and $1.7 million for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, compared to $575,000 and $1.2 million
for the same prior year periods. The increases were primarily due to $164,000
in gains recognized in the second quarter of 1998 on the sale of 30 year fixed
rate mortgage loans, which the Company periodically sells to manage interest
rate risk. Additionally, deposit related fees (part of fees and service
charges) increased by $121,000 and $198,000 for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the same prior year periods, due to
growth in commercial account services and retail core account balances. The
growth in these fees was partly offset by reductions in loan servicing fees due
to prepayments of the loans underlying the servicing portfolio.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were $6.7 million and $12.7 million for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1998, representing increases of $828,000 and $1.3 million
compared to the same prior year periods. The increases were partly due to
higher non-cash charges relating to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan and
expenses associated with the stock awards granted to directors and officers
under the 1997 Incentive Plan. These non-cash charges increased by $93,000 and
$361,000 for the three and six months ended, June 30, 1998, respectively, over
the same prior year periods. Additionally, marketing expense increased by
$146,000 and $349,000 as the Bank aggressively promoted its new retail checking
products. The Bank also opened its eleventh branch office in early April of
1998.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $1.9 million and $3.8 million for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, compared to $1.9 million and $3.9
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively. The
effective tax rate was relatively stable at 36.4% for the six months ended June
30, 1998 as compared to 36.5% for the same prior year period.
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 is a predictable source 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 June 30, 1998, the Company had no 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 $300.0 million at June 30, 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 six months ended June 30, 1998, were
principally provided by maturities of investment securities available for sale,
principal payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities and increased
deposits, including a deposit acquisition. 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 six months
ended June 30, 1997, the cash needs of the Company were primarily satisfied by
principal payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, securities sold
under agreements to repurchase 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
8
<PAGE>
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 June 30, 1998 and December
31, 1997, the Bank's liquidity ratios were 6.2% and 9.8%, respectively, both in
excess of the minimum regulatory requirement.
At June 30, 1998, the Bank exceeded all of its regulatory capital requirements
with tangible capital of $178.5 million, or 11.7%, of total adjusted assets,
which is above the required level of $23.0 million or 1.5%; core capital of
$178.5 million or 11.7% of total adjusted assets, which is above the required
level of $46.0 million, or 3.0%; and risk-based capital of $185.4 million, or
26.6% of risk-weighted assets, which is above the required level of $55.8
million or 8.0%. The Bank is considered a "well capitalized" institution under
the Office of Thrift Supervision's prompt corrective action regulations.
Non-Performing Assets
The following table sets forth information regarding the Company's nonperforming

Impact of Year 2000
The Company is conducting a comprehensive review of its computer systems and
third party vendors to identify the systems that could be affected by the "Year
2000" issue. The Year 2000 problem is the result of computer programs being
written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of
the Company's programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date
using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the Year 2000. This could result in
system failure or miscalculations. The Company is devoting the necessary
internal and external resources in the development of an implementation plan to
address Year 2000. Management anticipates that all Year 2000 initiatives and
testing will be completed in a timely manner and will meet all regulatory
milestones. Expenditures in future years are not expected to have a material
impact on the company.
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act Safe Harbor Statement
In addition to historical information, this quarterly report may include certain
forward looking statements based on current management expectations. The
Company's actual results could differ materially from those management
expectations. Factors that could cause future results to vary from current
management expectations include, but are not limited to, general economic
conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of
the federal government, changes in tax policies, rates and regulations of
federal and state tax authorities, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, the
cost of funds, demand for loan products, demand for financial services,
competition, changes in the quality or composition of the Bank's loan and
investment portfolios, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines,
and other economic,

competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's
operations, markets, products, services and prices. Further description of the
risks and uncertainties to the business are included in Item 1, Business, of the
Company's 1997 Form 10-K.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
The Company's interest rate sensitivity is monitored by management through the
use of an interest rate risk (IRR) model. Based on internal IRR modeling,
management does not believe that there has been a material change in the
Company's interest rate sensitivity from December 31, 1997 to June 30, 1998.
All methods used to measure interest rate sensitivity involve the use of
assumptions, which may tend to oversimplify the manner in which actual yields
and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The Company's interest
rate sensitivity should be reviewed in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1997.
