Notes to Unaudited Consolidated
Interim Financial Statements
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of
Catskill Financial Corporation (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Catskill Savings Bank (the "Bank"). All intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation. Amounts in prior periods' unaudited
consolidated interim financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to
conform to the current period's presentation. In management's opinion, the
unaudited consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a
normal recurring nature, and disclosures which are necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented and should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes
included in the Company's 1998 Annual Report to Stockholders. The results of
operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ended September 30, 1999.
Note 2. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Unvested restricted stock is not considered
outstanding and only included in the computation of basic earnings per share on
the date they are fully vested. Diluted earnings per share reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue
common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the
issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company, such
as the Company's stock options and unvested restricted stock. Unallocated ESOP
shares are not included in the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for either the basic or diluted earnings per share calculations.
The following sets forth certain information regarding the calculation of basic
and diluted earnings per share for the three month and nine month periods ended
June 30:

Note 3. Comprehensive Income
On October 1, 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This
Statement establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components. Comprehensive income includes the reported net income
of the Company adjusted for items that are currently accounted for as direct
entries to equity, such as the mark to market adjustment on securities available
for sale, foreign currency items and minimum pension liability adjustments. At
the Company, comprehensive income represents net income plus other comprehensive
income, which consists of the net change in unrealized gains or losses on
securities available for sale for the period. Accumulated other comprehensive
income (loss) represents the net unrealized gains or losses on securities
available for sale as of the balance sheet dates. Comprehensive income (loss)
for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 was
($1,024,000), $1,232,000, $75,000 and $3,244,000, respectively.
Note 4. Impact of New Accounting Standards
In June 1998, FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards
for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and for hedging activities. In May 1999, this Statement was
delayed by the FASB, consequently, it will now be effective for all fiscal
quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Management is currently
evaluating the impact of this Statement on the Company's consolidated financial
statements.

CATSKILL FINANCIAL CORPORATION
FORM 10-Q
June 30, 1999
PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
GENERAL
- -------
Catskill Financial Corporation (the "Company" or "Catskill Financial") was
formed in December 1995 to acquire all of the common stock of Catskill Savings
Bank (the "Bank") upon its conversion from a mutual savings bank to a stock
savings bank. On April 18, 1996, the Company completed its initial public stock
offering, issuing 5,686,750 shares of $.01 par value common stock at $10.00 per
share. Net proceeds to the Company were $54.9 million after conversion costs,
and $50.4 million excluding the shares acquired by the Company's Employee Stock
Ownership Plan (the "ESOP"), which were purchased with the proceeds of a loan
from the Company.
The consolidated financial condition and operating results of the Company are
primarily dependent upon its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank, and all
references to the Company prior to April 18, 1996, except where otherwise
indicated, are to the Bank.
The Bank has been and continues to be a community oriented financial institution
offering a variety of financial services. The Bank attracts deposits from the
general public and uses such deposits, together with other funds, to originate
one to four family residential mortgages, and, to a lesser extent, consumer
(including home equity lines of credit), commercial, and multi-family real
estate and other loans in its primary market area. The Bank's primary market
area is comprised of Greene County and southern Albany County in New York, which
are serviced through five banking offices, the most recent having opened in
April 1998. The Bank's deposit accounts are insured by the Bank Insurance Fund
("BIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), and, as a federal
savings bank, the Bank is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift
Supervision ("OTS").
The Bank's profitability, like many financial institutions, is dependent to a
large extent upon its net interest income, which is the difference between the
interest it receives on interest earning assets, such as loans and investments,
and the interest it pays on interest bearing liabilities, principally deposits.
Results of operations are also affected by the Bank's provision for loan losses,
non-interest expenses such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and
other operating expenses and to a lesser extent, non-interest income such as
service charges on deposit accounts.
Financial institutions in general, including the Company, are significantly
affected by economic conditions, competition and the monetary and fiscal
policies of the federal government. Lending activities are influenced by the
demand for and supply of housing, competition among lenders, interest rate
conditions and funds availability. Deposit balances and cost of funds are
influenced by prevailing market rates on competing investments, customer
preference and the levels of personal income and savings in the Bank's primary
market area.
<PAGE>
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
When used in this Form 10-Q or future filings by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, in the Company's press releases or other
public or shareholder communications, or in oral statements made with the
approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases "will likely
result", "are expected to", "will continue", "is anticipated", "estimate",
"project", "believe", or similar expressions are intended to identify
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigations Reform Act of 1995. In addition, certain disclosures and information
customarily provided by financial institutions, such as analysis of the adequacy
of the allowance for loan losses or an analysis of the interest rate sensitivity
of the Company's assets and liabilities, are inherently based upon predictions
of future events and circumstances. Furthermore, from time to time, the Company
may publish other forward-looking statements relating to such matters as
anticipated financial performance, business prospects, and similar matters.
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe
harbor for forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the
safe harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the
Company's actual results and experience to differ materially from the
anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Company's
forward-looking statements. Some of the risks and uncertainties that may affect
the operations, performance, development and results of the Company's business,
the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities, and the adequacy of
its allowance for loan losses, include but are not limited to the following:
o Deterioration in local, regional, national or global economic
conditions which could result, among other things, in an increase in
loan delinquencies, a decrease in property values, or a change in the
housing turnover rate;
o the effect of certain customers and vendors of critical systems or
services failing to adequately address issues relating to becoming Year
2000 compliant;
o changes in market interest rates or changes in the speed at which
market interest rates change;
o changes in laws and regulations affecting the financial service
industry;
o changes in competition; and
o changes in consumer preferences.
The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on
any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and to
advise readers that various factors, including those described above, could
affect the Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual
results or circumstances for future periods to differ materially from those
anticipated or projected.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------
Total assets were $335.0 million at June 30, 1999, an increase of $20.2 million,
or 6.4% from the $314.8 million at September 30, 1998. The increase in assets
was primarily in corporate owned life insurance and loans and was funded
principally by increases in short-term borrowings and deposits.
Cash and cash equivalents were $3.4 million at June 30, 1999, up $.6 million
from September 30, 1998, due principally to the Company's strategy of growing
its checking related accounts, which increases the amount of checks in process
of collection.
Total securities, which include securities held to maturity ("HTM") and
securities available for sale ("AFS"), excluding Federal Home Loan Bank stock,
were $167.7 million, an increase of $.7 million, or .4% from the $167.0 million
as of September 30, 1998. Although the total investment portfolio increase was
marginal, the lower interest rate environment in late 1998 and early 1999
accelerated the rate of prepayments on the Company's mortgage-backed securities
("MBS") portfolio, consequently, MBS's now represent 43.5% of the total
investment portfolio as compared to 54.3% as of September 30, 1998. The Company
has replaced MBS run-offs, as well as calls on its agency portfolio, with more
non-callable corporates and municipals with longer call protection. The Company
also used some of the MBS paydowns to fund a $10.0 million purchase of corporate
owned life insurance ("COLI") as a financing vehicle for pre- and post
retirement employee benefits. The COLI's investment returns and death benefits
are not taxable to the Company, and the insurance premiums are non-deductible.
The insurance policy provides that the initial lump sum premium, after certain
deductions, is maintained in a separate account, which minimizes the Company's
exposure to insurance carrier credit risk and allows the Company to select both
the investment manager and the investment portfolio strategy.
Loans receivable were $147.9 million as of June 30, 1999, an increase of $8.2
million or 5.9% over the $139.7 million at September 30, 1998. The following
table shows the loan portfolio composition as of the respective balance sheet
dates:

<PAGE>
One-to-four family real estate loans increased $6.4 million, or 5.6%, as the
Company has continued to promote a 15 year fixed rate mortgage product with a
preferred rate for borrowers who have their monthly payments automatically
deducted from a checking account with the Bank. The increase in multi-family and
commercial real estate loans was principally represented by a loan to finance a
mobile home park in the Company's primary market area. Construction loans are up
due to several commercial projects under development as well as seasonal one to
four family residential construction, with the Company providing both
construction and permanent financing.
Non-performing assets at June 30, 1999 were $640,000, or .19% of total assets,
compared to the $644,000, or .20% of total assets at September 30, 1998. The

The increase in non-performing loans at June 30, 1999 as compared to September
30, 1998 was principally due to the death of three borrowers, which caused
payment delays pending the settlement of their estates, offset somewhat by the
foreclosure of one loan which resulted in the Company acquiring title to the
mortgaged property. The net realizable value of the property, totaling $32,000,
was transferred to other real estate, and since the net realizable value
approximated the Company's carrying value, the Company recorded no loss. In
addition, during the nine months ended June 30, 1999, the Company sold two
parcels of other real estate which reduced real estate owned by $53,000. The
following table summarizes the activity in other real estate for the periods

</TABLE>
The growth in deposits was principally generated by the Company's two newest
offices. In addition, the Company continues its strategy of growing its core
deposits, principally checking related products. Core deposits now represent
over 51% of total deposits, and checking products represent almost 11.0% of
deposits.
The Company's borrowings, which are principally with the Federal Home Loan Bank
of New York ("FHLB"), were $46.1 million at June 30, 1999, an increase of $14.3
million from the $31.8 million at September 30, 1998. As of June 30, 1999, the
Company still had additional available credit of $4.6 million under its
overnight line and $15.7 million under its one month advance program with the
FHLB.
Shareholders' equity at June 30, 1999 was $64.4 million, a decrease of $3.4
million or 5.0% from the $67.8 million at September 30, 1998. The decrease was
principally caused by the Company's repurchase of 178,780 shares of its stock at
a cost of $2.9 million, and a $3.0 million change in the Company's net
unrealized gain (loss) on securities available for sale, net of taxes due to
recent increases in market interest rates, offset by the $2.0 million of net
income retained after cash dividends. The Company also recorded a $.5 million
increase in shareholders' equity due to the amortization of restricted stock
awards, exercise of stock options and the release of shares under the Company's
ESOP.
Shareholders' equity as a percentage of total assets was 19.2% at June 30, 1999
compared to 21.6% at September 30, 1998. Book value per common share was $15.40,
or $15.82 excluding unvested shares of the Company's restricted stock plan
("MRP"), and was $17.48 excluding unallocated ESOP shares and unvested MRP
shares.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
AND 1998
- --------
General
- -------
For the three months ended June 30, 1999, the Company recorded net income of
$1,099,000, an increase of $125,000, or 12.8%, compared to the three month
period ended June 30, 1998. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $.29 and
$.28 respectively, an increase of 20.8% and 16.7% compared to basic and diluted
earnings per share of $.24 for the three months ended June 30, 1998. For the
three months ended June 30, 1999, weighted average common shares - basic were
3,804,676, down 198,062, or 4.9%, due to the Company's share repurchase
programs.
Annualized return on average assets for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and
1998, was 1.35% and 1.29%, respectively, and return on average equity was 6.55%
and 5.73%, respectively.
Net Interest Income
- -------------------
Net interest income on a full tax equivalent basis for the three months ended
June 30, 1999, was $3.1 million, an increase of $162,000, or 5.5%, when compared
to the three months ended June 30, 1998. The increase was principally volume
related as the Company increased its average earning assets $15.2 million, or
5.1%, more than offsetting the increase in interest expense from the Company's
funding of its stock repurchase and corporate owned life insurance ("COLI")
purchases. The Company funded the share repurchases and COLI, along with its
growth in earning assets, principally with borrowings and deposit growth.
Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $5.7 million on a
tax equivalent basis, an increase of $216,000, or 4.0%, over the comparable
period last year. The $15.2 million increase in the average volume of earning
assets had a positive effect on interest income as the Company sought to
leverage its excess capital, offset somewhat by a 8 basis point drop in the
yield on its average earning assets.
Average earning assets increased principally in the loan portfolio, which on
average grew $16.2 million, or 12.4%. Loan growth was principally due to the
promotion of a 15 year fixed rate mortgage product, which increased volume, but
had an adverse impact on the loan portfolio yield since the loans were
originated at rates below the average loan portfolio yield. In addition, the
Company, due to lower market interest rates earlier in the fiscal year,
experienced higher loan prepayments, and refinancing of its existing portfolio,
which together with the loan promotion caused the yield on the loan portfolio to
decrease 34 basis points to 7.67%.
Average mortgage backed securities ("MBS") were $72.2 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999, down $18.7 million, or 20.5% from the comparable
period due to accelerated prepayments caused by the lower interest rate
environment in late 1998. The average yield on MBS was 6.46%, down 17 basis
points from the comparable period, as the Company has been purchasing one year
Treasury indexed teaser rate adjustable rate mortgages ("ARM's") to balance its
asset mix since most loan originations have been at fixed rates. Consequently,
26.6% of the average MBS portfolio represented ARM's compared to 24.5% in the
<PAGE>
comparable period. The teaser ARM's were purchased during the initial teaser
rate period; therefore, the initial interest rate and yields will be less than
the fully indexed rate and yield. Management expects the average yield of these
ARM's to increase as they adjust to their fully indexed rate; however, the
actual increase will depend upon the level of the one-year constant maturity
treasury index when the rates adjust.
Average other securities increased $17.7 million, or 24.0%, as the Company
purchased longer call protected bank qualified municipals and non-callable
corporate securities to increase yields and reduce reinvestment risk should
rates decline. The average yield on the other securities portfolio for the three
months ended June 30, 1999, was 7.47%, an increase of 16 basis points from the
comparable period, as the Company replaced securities called and/or matured with
higher yielding municipals. Municipal securities represented 45.3% of average
other securities during the three month period ended June 30, 1999, compared to
only 33.4% in the comparable period.
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1999, was $2.6 million, an
increase of $54,000, or 2.2%. The change was principally due to an increase in
the average volume of interest bearing liabilities offset somewhat by a decrease
in the Company's cost of funds. Average interest bearing liabilities were $248.4
million, an increase of $24.6 million, or 11.0%, as deposits increased and the
Company borrowed in order to fund its earning asset growth, COLI purchase and
stock repurchases. Average long-term borrowings were up $19.2 million, as the
Company funded its stock repurchases and earning asset growth, as well as
converted a portion of its short-term borrowings to long-term borrowings,
principally through convertible (callable) advances. Average short-term
borrowings were $10.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, down
$5.4 million from the comparable three month period due to the change to
long-term borrowings. In addition, the Company's average certificates of deposit
("CD's") increased $4.4 million, or 4.3%, as the Company in fiscal 1998 promoted
a 15 month CD program at a premium rate due to competitive pressures. The cost
of funds decreased 36 basis points to 4.13% as the Company has lowered its
deposit rates, and generally benefitted from a reduction in the rate on
short-term borrowings after the Fed's Open Market Committee reduced the
overnight bank rate 75 basis points in late 1998.
The Company's net yield on average earning assets was 4.03% for the three months
ended June 30, 1999, up 1 basis point compared to 4.02% for the comparable
period of the prior year. The increase was principally the impact of the 28
basis point rise in the Company's net interest spread offset by the Company's
stock repurchase program, which reduced the level of no-cost funding sources,
and increased the amount of average earning assets funded by interest bearing
liabilities, along with the funding of the COLI purchase which increased
interest expense without a corresponding increase in interest income. The
increase in the Company's net spread was principally due to the 36 basis point
drop in the cost of funds, principally in deposits, more than offsetting the 8
basis point drop in the earning asset yield as the increase in the securities
portfolio yield somewhat offset the decline in the loan portfolio yield. For the
three months ended June 30, 1999, the Company had $61.3 million of average
earning assets with no funding costs, a decrease of $9.4 million, or 13.3%, from
the $70.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998.

Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
The Company establishes an allowance for loan losses based on an analysis of
risk factors in its loan portfolio. This analysis includes concentrations of
credit, past loan loss experience, current economic conditions, amount and
composition of loan portfolio, estimated fair market value of underlying
collateral, delinquencies and other factors. Accordingly, the calculation of the
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is not based solely on the level of
non-performing loans.
The provision for loan losses was $50,000 for the three months ended June 30,
1999, up $5,000 from the comparable quarter. The increase was principally due to
loan growth as the provision represented .14% of average loans in both periods.
The Company had net charge-offs of $30,000, or .08% of average loans for the
quarter ended June 30, 1999, as compared to net chargeoffs of $29,000, or .09%
of average loans in the comparable period. Non-performing loans were $608,000 at
June 30, 1999, or .41% of total loans, an increase of $53,000 from June 30,
1998, when they were also .41% of total loans. At June 30, 1999, the allowance
for loan losses was $2,050,000, or 1.39% of period end loans, and provided
coverage of non-performing loans of 337.2% compared to 1.43% and 346.3%,
respectively, as of June 30, 1998.
Non-Interest Income
- -------------------
Non-interest income was $259,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, an
increase of $104,000 or 67.1% from the three months ended June 30, 1998. The
increase was principally due to the investment performance on the Company's
corporate owned life insurance which increased its cash surrender value by
$127,000, more than offsetting the $37,000 of security gains realized in the
comparable period in the prior year. There were no security gains in the three
month period ended June 30, 1999. In addition, service fees on deposit accounts
increased $19,000, or 26.0%, as the Company continues to promote checking
related products to increase core deposits and diversify its revenues.
Non-Interest Expense
- --------------------
Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $1,577,000, an
increase of $108,000, or 7.4%, over the comparable period last year. Increases
included higher occupancy costs of $40,000 due principally to renovation
expenses at our Main Street office. Other professional fees were $74,000, an
increase of $10,000 as the Company incurred higher costs due to increased tax
research, actuarial and investment advisory services. In addition, the Company
incurred higher personnel costs of $21,000 and advertising costs of $16,000
principally due to the anticipated opening of its next full service branch in
August 1999.
<PAGE>
Income Tax Expense
- ------------------
Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 1999, was $369,000, a
decrease of $85,000, or 18.7%, from the comparable period last year. The
Company's effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
were 25.14% and 31.79%, respectively. The decrease in both the effective tax
rate and income tax expense is principally the impact of the Company's purchase
of tax-exempt securities, primarily bank qualified municipals, as well as
increase in cash surrender value of the COLI, which is non-taxable.
COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
AND 1998
- --------
General
- -------
For the nine months ended June 30, 1999, the Company recorded net income of
$3,121,000, an increase of $217,000, or 7.5%, compared to the nine month period
ended June 30, 1998. Basic earnings per share were $.81, an increase of 15.7%
compared to basic earnings per share of $.70 for the nine months ended June 30,
1998. Diluted earnings per share were $.80 for the nine month period, an
increase of 17.6% compared to $.68 for the comparable nine month period. For the
nine months ended June 30, 1999, weighted average common shares - basic were
3,831,288, down 308,433, or 7.5%, due to the Company's share repurchase
programs.
Annualized return on average assets for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 and
1998, was 1.30% and 1.32%, respectively, and return on average equity was 6.19%
and 5.54%, respectively.
Net Interest Income
- -------------------
Net interest income for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, was $9.1 million on
a full tax equivalent basis, an increase of $341,000, or 3.9%, when compared to
the nine months ended June 30, 1998. The increase was principally volume related
as the Company increased its average earning assets $19.5 million, or 6.8%, more
than offsetting the increase in interest expense from the borrowings used to
fund its share repurchases and corporate owned life insurance ("COLI"). The
Company funded the share repurchases, the COLI purchase and its earning asset
growth, principally with borrowings and, to a lesser extent, deposit growth.
Interest income for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 was $16.8 million on a
tax equivalent basis, an increase of $755,000, or 4.7%, over the comparable
period. The $19.5 million, or 6.8%, increase in the average volume of earning
assets had a positive effect on interest income as the Company sought to
leverage its excess capital, offset somewhat by a 15 basis point drop in the
yield on its average earning assets.
Average earning assets increased principally in the loan portfolio and to a
lesser extent, its securities portfolio, which on average grew 12.9% and 1.9%,
respectively. Loan growth was principally due to the promotion of a 15 year
fixed rate mortgage product, which increased volume, but had an adverse impact
<PAGE>
on the loan portfolio yield since the loans were originated at rates below the
average loan portfolio yield. In addition, the Company, due to lower market
interest rates, experienced higher loan prepayments, and refinancing of its
existing portfolio, which together with the loan promotion caused the yield on
the loan portfolio to decrease 33 basis points to 7.71%.
Average MBS were $77.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, down
$10.9 million, or 12.3%, from the comparable period. The average yield on MBS
was 6.39%, down 44 basis points from the comparable period, as the Company has
been purchasing one year Treasury indexed teaser rate ARM's as previously
described in the three month comparison. Consequently, 26.7% of the average MBS
portfolio represented teaser rate ARM's compared to only 14.9% in the comparable
period.
Average other securities increased $14.0 million, or 19.8%, as the Company
purchased longer call protected bank qualified municipals and non-callable
corporate securities to increase yields and reduce reinvestment risk should
rates decline. The average yield on the other securities portfolio for the nine
months ended June 30, 1999, was 7.45%, an increase of 30 basis points from the
comparable period, as the Company replaced securities called or matured with
higher yielding municipals. Municipal securities now represent 46.2% of average
other securities, compared to less than 16.3% in the comparable period.
Interest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, was $7.7 million, an
increase of $414,000, or 5.7%. The change was principally due to an increase in
the average volume of interest bearing liabilities offset somewhat by a decrease
in the Company's cost of funds. Average interest bearing liabilities were $243.1
million, an increase of $27.0 million, or 12.5%, as deposits increased and the
Company borrowed in order to fund the Company's stock repurchases, its COLI
purchase and earning asset growth. Average long-term borrowings were up $21.5
million, as the Company funded its stock repurchases and its earning asset
growth, as well as converted a portion of its short-term borrowings to long-term
borrowings, principally through convertible (callable) advances. Average
short-term borrowings were $8.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1999,
down $4.6 million from the comparable nine month period due to the change to
long-term borrowings. In addition, the Company's average CD's increased $6.2
million, or 6.1%, as the Company in fiscal 1998 promoted a special 15 month CD
program at a premium rate due to competitive pressures. The cost of funds
decreased 27 basis points to 4.26% as the Company has generally lowered its
deposit rates.
The Company's net yield on average earning assets was 3.95% for the nine months
ended June 30, 1999, down 11 basis points compared to 4.06% for the comparable
period of the prior year. The decrease was principally caused by the Company's
stock repurchase program, and the funding of the COLI purchase. For the nine
months ended June 30, 1999, the Company had $63.7 million of average earning
assets with no funding costs, a decrease of $7.5 million, or 10.5%, from the
$71.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1998. The Company did, however,
increase its net interest spread 12 basis points as the cost of funds decreased
27 basis points, principally due to the lower deposit costs, whereas the yield
on earning assets only decreased 15 basis points as increases in the yield on
securities somewhat offset the decline in the loan portfolio yield.
For more information on average balances, interest, yield and rate, please refer
to Table #2, included in this report.
<PAGE>
Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
The provision for loan losses was $140,000, or .13% of average loans for the
nine months ended June 30, 1999, down from $144,000, or .16% of average loans in
the comparable period of the prior year. The decrease is principally
attributable to a reduction in net charge-offs to $40,000, or .04% of average
loans for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $111,000, or .12%
of average loans in the comparable period. Despite the decrease in net
charge-offs, the Company's provisions have remained relatively constant due to
the 12.9% growth in average loans outstanding. Nonperforming loans were $608,000
at June 30, 1999, or .41% of total loans, an increase of $53,000 from June 30,
1998, when they were also .41% of total loans. At June 30, 1999, the allowance
for loan losses was $2,050,000, or 1.39% of period end loans, and provided
coverage of non-performing loans of 337.2% compared to 1.43% and 346.3%,
respectively, as of June 30, 1998.
Non-Interest Income
- -------------------
Non-interest income was $670,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, an
increase of $270,000, or 67.5% from the nine months ended June 30, 1998. The
increase was principally due to the investment performance on the Company's
corporate owned life insurance which increased its cash surrender value by
$250,000, more than offsetting the $68,000 reduction in net securities gains. In
addition, service fees on deposit accounts increased $64,000, or 31.1%, as the
Company continues to promote checking related products to increase core deposits
and diversify its revenues.
Non-Interest Expense
- --------------------
Non-interest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 was $4,584,000, an
increase of $373,000, or 8.9%, over the comparable period last year. The
increase was principally the cost attributable to our new supermarket branch,
which opened in April 1998, as well as higher real estate operations net, net
occupancy, other professional fees, and a contract termination charge to switch
ATM service providers.
Salaries and employee benefits were up $95,000, or 3.7% principally from
staffing the supermarket branch which opened in April 1998, as well as the cost
associated with an Executive Supplemental Retirement Plan implemented in the
third quarter of fiscal 1998. Real estate operations net, increased $90,000, as
the Company had losses due to sales of other real estate during the nine months
ended June 30, 1999, compared to gains on sales in the comparable period. Net
occupancy increased $62,000, principally from renovation expenses at the
Company's main office, as well as cost associated with the opening of the
supermarket branch. Other professional fees were $215,000, an increase of
$47,000 as the Company incurred higher costs due to increased tax research,
actuarial and investment advisory services. The Company also recorded a contract
termination charge of $29,000 during the period to switch ATM service providers.
Management expects the change to improve customer service, reduce operating
costs, and increase service fee income by implementing surcharging on
non-customer ATM transactions.
<PAGE>
Income Tax Expense
- ------------------
Income tax expense for the nine months ended June 30, 1999, was $1,119,000, a
decrease of $487,000, or 30.3%, from the comparable period last year. The
Company's effective tax rates for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
were 26.39% and 35.61%, respectively. The decrease in both the effective tax
rate and income tax expense is principally the impact of the Company's purchase
of tax-exempt securities, primarily bank qualified municipals, as well as the
non-taxable increase in cash surrender value of the COLI.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
Liquidity is the ability to generate cash flows to meet present and expected
future funding needs. Management monitors the Company's liquidity position on a
daily basis to evaluate its ability to meet expected and unexpected depositor
withdrawals and to make new loans and/or investments. The Company has reduced
its high level of liquidity, but continues to manage its balance sheet so there
has been no need for unanticipated sales of assets.
The Company's primary sources of funds for operations are deposits, borrowings,
principal and interest payments on loans, mortgage backed securities and other
securities available for sale.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.8 million for the nine months
ended June 30, 1999, an increase of $1.4 million from the comparable nine month
period. The increase was principally the change in accrued expenses and other
liabilities caused by a decrease in official bank checks outstanding in the
prior year. Official bank checks decreased principally as a result of the
Company's payment of real estate taxes for mortgage borrowers using escrowed
funds earlier in September 1998 than in September 1997.
Investing activities used $24.4 million in the nine months ended June 30, 1999,
as the Company increased its assets principally from the $10.0 million purchase
of COLI, $8.2 million in loans, and a $6.1 million increase in the Company's
securities portfolio. Financing activities provided $22.2 million, as the
Company experienced a $14.3 million increase in short-term borrowings, a $10.1
million increase in deposits, and a $1.9 million increase in advances by
borrowers for taxes, somewhat offset by the cost to purchase treasury stock of
$2.9 million and the payment of cash dividends of $1.2 million on its common
stock. For more details concerning the Company's cash flows, see "Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows."
An important source of the Company's funds is the Bank's core deposits.
Management believes that a substantial portion of the Bank's $220.1 million of
deposits are a dependable source of funds due to long-term customer
relationships. The Company does not currently use brokered deposits as a source
of funds, and as of June 30, 1999, deposit accounts having balances in excess of
$100,000 totaled $23.8 million, or 10.8%, of total deposits. The Bank is
required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by the OTS
regulations. The requirement, which may be varied by the OTS depending upon
economic conditions and deposit flows, is based upon a percentage of deposits
and short-term borrowings. The OTS required minimum liquidity ratio is currently
4% and for the month of June 1999, the Bank exceeded that, maintaining an
average liquidity ratio of 37.64%.
<PAGE>
The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds to meet its current
commitments. At June 30, 1999, the Company had commitments to originate loans of
$5.1 million. In addition, the Company had undrawn commitments of $3.4 million
on home equity and other lines of credit. Certificates of deposits which are
scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 1999, totaled $76.8 million,
and management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain
with the Company.
Although there are no minimum capital ratio requirements for the Company, the
Bank is required to maintain minimum regulatory capital ratios. The following is
a summary of the Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios at June 30, 1999,
compared to the OTS minimum capital requirements:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Actual Minimum
Amount % Amount %
------- ----- ------- ---
(Dollars in Thousands)
<S> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Tangible Capital $51,549 15.47% $ 4,997 1.5%
Core Capital 51,549 15.47 13,327 4.0
Risk Based Capital 53,532 32.98 12,984 8.0
</TABLE>
Beginning on April 18, 1999, the Company was no longer subject to any stock
repurchase restrictions of the OTS and shortly thereafter announced a 10% share
repurchase program to purchase approximately 436,000 shares. From April 18
through June 30, 1999, the Company had already repurchased 178,780 shares at a
cost of $2.9 million, or $16.19 per common share. At June 30, 1999, the Holding
Company had approximately $9.4 million in available resources to pursue stock
repurchases without dividends from the Bank. Dividends from the Bank are
permitted without notice or application to the OTS, under revised regulations
effective April of this year, if total dividends for a year do not exceed
current period net income plus retained net income for the two previous years
and certain other standards are met. Dividends from the Bank to the Company this
year have already exceeded that level, and hence the Bank cannot pay additional
dividends to the Company at this time without OTS approval.
Year 2000
The following disclosure is a Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure and a Year 2000
Statement, as defined in the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act.
The Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue confronting the Company and its suppliers,
customers, customers' suppliers and competitors centers on the inability of
computer systems to recognize the year 2000. Many existing computer programs and
systems originally were programmed with six digit dates that provided only two
digits to identify the calendar year in the date field. With the impending new
millennium, these programs and computers will recognize "00" as the year 1900
rather than the year 2000.
Substantially, all of the Company's mission critical systems are outsourced or
are purchased software packages. As a result, much of the remediation and
testing process is dependent on the accuracy of work performed by, and the Year
2000 compliance of software, hardware and equipment provided by, vendors.
<PAGE>
The Company's progress on its Year 2000 readiness is continuing as scheduled.
The Company has completed the testing of all of its mission critical systems. In
addition, the testing of other customers of the Company's data processing
service provider, disclosed no Year 2000 issues, consequently, as of June 30,
1999, all production systems are now operating in a Y2K compliant environment.
The Company expects to continue to monitor all of its systems, and will test
upgrades, if any, for Y2K compliance as well.
The Company's total Y2K project cost is estimated to be $100,000, of which
$50,000 is expected to be hardware and software upgrades. So far, the Company
has expensed approximately $36,000 of the project cost, and expects to amortize
the hardware and software upgrades, which have already been purchased, over
their estimated useful lives of three to five years.
The Company expects that when the century changes, disruption in service will
come not from a failure of its systems or the systems of the providers with whom
it interfaces, but rather from outside agencies (i.e., electric and telephone
companies) beyond its control. Therefore, contingency planning and business
resumption planning will be based on the Company's formal Disaster Recovery
Program, which includes using such things as spreadsheet software or reverting
to manual systems until problems can be corrected.
The Company has written a Disaster Recovery Plan, a Year 2000 Contingency Plan,
and a Y2K Liquidity Plan, all of which management expects to test through the
end of the year. The Company is also undertaking various customer awareness
programs, such as posted statements, mailing of FDIC brochures and publishing
information on its website.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company believes there have been no material changes in the Company's
interest rate risk position since September 30, 1998. Other types of market
risk, such as foreign exchange rate risk and commodity price risk, do not arise
in the normal course of the Company's business activities.

Beneficiary or estate of eligible directors of Catskill Savings Bank. Catskill
Savings Bank's board of directors believes that it is in the best interests of

aid the bank in retaining as directors the experienced and highly qualified

stock under the Company's MRP plan and options granted, but unexercised, under
its stock option plan) are based on the treasury stock method using average
market price. The treasury stock method recognizes the use of assumed proceeds
upon the exercise of options, and the amount of unearned compensation attributed
to future services under the Company's restricted stock plan, including any tax
benefits, to purchase the Company's common stock at the average market price
during the period.
