PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - Financial Statements

The  information  required by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X is attached hereto as
Exhibit A.

ITEM 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operation.

The  business  operation of the Company is  conducted  through its  wholly-owned
subsidiaries,  Humboldt Bank and Capitol  Valley Bank,  Capitol  Thrift and Loan
(which was acquired on April 7, 2000),  and a 50% interest in Bancorp  Financial
Services,  a company  making  automobile  and small ticket  leasing  loans.  The
following  discussion  presented on a consolidated  basis analyzes the financial
condition  and results of operations of the Company for the three month and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2000.

Changes in Financial Condition

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, deposits increased $138.3
million or 36.5% to $516.9 million  compared with $378.6 million at December 31,
1999.  The  increase  in  deposits  is the result of  increases  in all types of
deposits.  During the same period,  total loans  (excluding loans held for sale)
increased $162.9 million or 72.0% to $389.2 million compared with $226.3 million
at December 31, 1999. The increase in loans is primarily the result of increases
in the real estate loan  portfolio,  particularly  commercial  and  agricultural
loans and family and  multi-family  residential  loans,  and to a lesser  degree
construction  and land development  loans as well as commercial,  industrial and
agricultural  loan, state and political  subdivision  loans and other loans. The
increase was  partially  offset by decreases in lease  financing  loans and to a
lesser degree in consumer  loans.  Loans held for sale decreased $2.1 million or
100.0% to $0.0 million  compared  with $2.1  million at December  31, 1999.  The
increase in loans and deposits is  attributable  to both internal  growth (loans
$52.1 million,  deposits $31.7 million) and the result of the Capitol Thrift and
Loan acquisition (loans $110.8 million, deposits $106.6 million).

At September 30, 1999, deposits had increased $98.5 million or 35.5% from $277.3
million at September 30, 1998.  Total loans had increased $22.7 million or 12.4%
from  $183.6  million at  September  30,  1998.  The  increase  in  deposits  is
attributable  to both  internal  growth  ($27.6  million)  and the  retention of
deposits  acquired  from two  branches  of Cal-Fed  Bank  ($70.9  million).  The
increase in loans is  attributable  to internal  growth and is not the result of
acquisitions.

Investment  securities  decreased  $15.0  million or 13.0% to $100.4  million at
September  30, 2000,  compared  with $115.4  million at December  31, 1999,  and
federal funds sold  increased  $14.0 million or 65.4% to $35.4 million  compared
with $21.4 million at December 31, 1999.  The decrease in investment  securities
was mainly the result  increased  internal loan demand.  The increase in federal
funds sold was the  result of a planned  build-up  of  federal  funds at Capitol
Thrift and Loan, an aggressive deposit generation program at Capitol Valley Bank
in  anticipation  of increased  loan activity,  which was partially  offset by a
decrease in federal funds sold at Humboldt Bank due to increased loan demand.

At September 30, 1999,  investments  had  increased  $26.8 million or 33.8% from
$79.4  million at September  30, 1998.  The  increase in  investments  is mainly
attributable  to the  investment  of  funds  received  from  the  Cal-Fed branch
acquisitions.


<PAGE>3

During the nine month period ending September 30, 2000, past due and non-accrual
loans,  as a result of the Capitol Thrift and Loan  acquisition,  increased $1.5
million or 50.0% to $4.5  million  (0.8% of total  assets),  compared  with $3.0
million (0.7% of total assets) at December 31, 1999. The Company's allowance for
loan losses at September  30, 1999,  was 1.6% of loans and leases  compared with
1.5% at December 31, 1999.

During the nine month period ending September 30, 1999, past due and non-accrual
loans  decreased  $0.6 million or 21.4% to $2.2 million (0.5% of total  assets),
compared  with $2.8 million  (0.9% of total  assets) at December  31, 1998.  The
Company's allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1999, was 1.6% of loans and
leases compared with 1.6% at December 31, 1998.

Earnings Summary

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000,  increased $1.8 million
to $5.0 million or $0.88 per share (diluted $0.82),  compared with net income of
$3.2 million or $0.64 per share  (diluted  $0.58) in the same period a year ago.
The increase can be attributed to increases in interest  income of $12.8 million
or 71.9%, and non-interest  income of $7.1 million or 52.2%, offset by increases
in interest expense of $6.8 million or 121.4%, provision for loan losses of $0.9
million or 128.6%, and taxes of $0.9 or 60.0%, and non-interest  expense of $9.5
million or 46.1%.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2000, increased $1.1 million
to $2.2 million or $0.38 per share (diluted $0.36 per share),  compared with net
income of $1.1 million or $0.22 per share  (diluted $0.20 per share) in the same
three month  period a year ago.  This  increase of $1.1 million can be accounted
for by increases in interest  income ($5.7 million or 90.5%),  and  non-interest
income ($2.1  million or 41.2%)  off-set by increases in interest  expense ($3.1
million or 147.6%),  non-interest  expense  ($2.8  million or 36.8%),  loan loss
provision ($0.2 million or 100.0%) and taxes ($0.6 million or 120.0%).

Net Interest Income

Total interest income increased $12.8 million or 71.9% for the nine months ended
September  30,  2000,  compared  with the prior  year.  During the same  period,
interest expense  increased $6.8 million or 121.4%.  Net interest income for the
nine months ended  September  30, 2000,  was $18.3 million and $12.2 million for
the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1999.  Average  loans  and  leases as a
percentage  of average  earning  assets was 70.5%  during the nine months  ended
September  30, 2000,  compared to 66.7% a year earlier.  The average  balance of
other earning assets as a percentage of average  earning assets was 29.5% during
the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared with 33.3% a year earlier.

Total interest income increased $5.7 million or 90.5% for the three months ended
September  30,  2000,  and  interest  expense  increased  $3.1 million or 147.6%
compared with the same three-month period in the prior year. Net interest income
for the three months ended September 30, 2000, was $6.9 million and $4.3 million
for the three months ended  September 30, 1999. The increase in interest  income
is accounted for by increases in federal funds sold ($0.2 million), interest and
dividends  on  securities  ($0.7  million)  and interest and fees on loans ($4.8
million).  The  increase in interest  expense is  attributable  to  increases in
interest on savings  deposits  ($2.2  million),  all other time  deposits  ($0.5
million),  interest on other  borrowings  ($0.3  million)  and  interest on time
deposits of $100,000 or more, ($0.1 million).

Provision for Loan Losses

The  Company  maintains  its  allowance  for loan  losses at a level  considered
appropriate  by management  to provide for known and inherent  risks in the loan
portfolio.   This  consideration  includes  an  evaluation  of  various  factors
affecting the collectability of loans,  including current and projected economic
conditions,  past credit  experience and a periodic review of the Company's loan
portfolio. The Company recorded a provision to the allowance for loan losses for
the nine month period ended September 30, 2000, of $1.6 million compared to $0.7
million for the same  period in 1999.  Loans  charged off during the  nine-month
period totaled $0.9 million in 2000 and $0.8 million in 1999.  Recoveries in the
same period were $89,000 in 2000 and $308,000 in 1999.  The increase in the loan
loss  provision in 2000 is the result of the  acquisition  of Capitol Thrift and
Loan.

The Company  recorded a provision to the allowance for loan losses for the three
month  period ended  September  30, 2000,  of $0.4  million  compared  with $0.2
million in the same period in 1999.  Loans  charged  off during the  three-month
period totaled $0.4 million in 2000 and $0.3 million in 1999.  Recoveries in the
same period were $43,000 in 2000 and $50,000 in 1999.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest  income  consists of gain/loss  on sale of loans and fixed  assets,
service charges on deposit accounts and other service  charges,  commissions and
fees  including  Lease  Department,  Merchant  BankCard  Department  and Issuing
BankCard  Department  income.  During the nine months ended  September 30, 2000,
income from these  sources  increased  $7.1  million or 52.2% to $20.7  million,
compared with $13.6 million in 1999. The increase was accounted for by increases
in Merchant  BankCard  Department  income  ($6.6  million),  service  charges on
deposits ($0.5 million), and other income ($0.5 million), offset by decreases in
Issuing BankCard  Department income ($0.1 million),  and Lease Department income
($0.4 million).

In the three  months ended  September  30,  2000,  non-interest  income was $7.1
million; an increase of $2.0 million or 39.2% compared with $5.1 million for the
same period in 1999.  The  increase is  attributable  primarily  to increases in
Merchant Bankcard Department income ($1.8 million),  service charges on deposits
($0.2 million),  and other  non-interest  income ($0.1 million) and decreases in
Lease Department income ($0.1 million).

Non-Interest Expense

During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, non-interest expenses increased
$9.5 million or 46.1% to $30.1 million, compared with $20.6 million for the same
period in 1999. The increase is  attributable  to increased  personnel  expenses
($3.5 million),  premises expense ($0.6 million) and other non interest expenses
($5.4 million) which include increases in Merchant Bankcard  Department  expense
($4.8  million),   outside  consulting  expense  ($0.1  million),  core  deposit
intangible  expense  ($0.2  million),  board  related  expense  ($0.1  million),
non-local  travel expense ($0.1 million) and other outside service expense ($0.1
million)

During the three months ended in September  30, 2000,  non-interest  expense was
$10.4  million an increase of $2.8 million of 36.8%,  compared with $7.6 million
for the same period in 1999. The increase is attributable to increased personnel
expenses ($1.3 million), premises expense ($0.2) and other non interest expenses
($1.3 million) which includes increases in Merchant Bankcard  Department expense
($1.0 million), outside consulting expense ($0.1 million), other outside service
expense ($0.1 million), and core deposit intangible expense ($0.1 million).

Number of Employees

At  September  30, 2000,  the Company had 399  full-time  equivalent  employees,
compared  to 319  full-time  equivalent  employees  at the  same  period  a year
earlier.

In the three months ended September 30, 2000, the number of full-time equivalent
employees  decreased  by 7  compared  with an  increase  of 33 in the same three
months period in 1999.

Capital Resources

Management  seeks to  maintain  adequate  capital to support  anticipated  asset
growth and credit  risks and to ensure  that the  Company  meets all  regulatory
capital requirements.

The Company is required to maintain certain  regulatory  minimum capital ratios.
The following table outlines these ratios at September 30, 2000.


                                  REQUIRED            COMPANY'S
                                   MINIMUM             ACTUAL
                                 ----------          -----------

TIER 1                              6.00                10.56

TOTAL CAPITAL                      10.00                11.81

LEVERAGE                            5.00                 8.58

Future growth and earnings retention, as currently anticipated by management, is
expected to provide for the maintenance of capital ratios in conformity with the
requirements.

Income Taxes

The  provision  for income  taxes was $2.5  million  for the nine  months  ended
September  30,  2000,  compared to $1.5 in the same period a year  earlier.  The
provision is classified as current tax liability for interim reporting purposes.
The tax rate was 34.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to
34.7% for the same period in 1999.

Liquidity

The Company manages its liquidity to ensure that sufficient  funds are available
to meet loan commitments and deposit fluctuations.  Primary sources of liquidity
include cash and due from bank deposits,  unpledged  short-term U.S.  Government
securities and federal funds sold. The Company's primary liquidity ratio,  which
is the ratio of liquid assets to total assets,  was 23.8% at September 30, 24.1%
at June 30, and 33.2% at March 31, 2000  respectively and 38.2% at September 30,
1999.

Asset/Liability Management

The Company's Asset and Liability  Committee ("ALCO") meets on a quarterly basis
and monitors the impact of changing interest rates on the Company's earnings and
economic  value.  The Company uses a simulation  model to estimate the change in
the Company's net interest margin (NIM) for various rate scenarios.  The Company
uses a combined net present value and going-concern  model to calculate economic
risk.

Interest Rate Risk.  The table below shows the  potential  change in NIM (before
taxes) if rates change as of September  30, 2000.  These  estimates are based on
the existing  repricing  schedule (see repricing table) as well as consideration
of  convexity  when rates change  (e.g.,  mortgage-backed  securities  cash flow
changes). The Company's NIM increases if rates rise, and declines if rates fall.

<PAGE>6


The cause of the  exposure to declining  rates in the one-year  period is due to
the  Company's  concentration  of  short-term  and  rate  sensitive  loans as of
September 30, 2000.

Economic Risk. The Company also measures the potential change in the net present
value of the Company's net existing  assets and liabilities if rates change (the
"economic  value of equity" or "EVE").  The table below also shows the EVE.  The
EVE is determined by valuing the Company assets and  liabilities as of September
30,  2000,  using a present  value cash flow  calculation  as if the  Company is
liquidated.  The EVE declines when rates  increase  because there are more fixed
rate assets than  liabilities.  However,  the Company's NIM earnings  would also
increase as rates increased (from the interest rate risk) and this benefit would
offset the decline in EVE.

         The  following  table sets forth the  repricing  opportunities  for the
assets  and  liabilities  of the  Company  at  September  30,  2000.  Assets and
Liabilities are classified by the earliest possible  repricing date or maturity,
whichever comes first.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1 - Legal Proceedings

         (A) On May 17, 2000, the case of Lawrence Bradley vs Visa International
Service  Association  and Travelers Bank USA Corp.  (Civil Action No. C 00-01777
SBA),  was filed in the United  States  District  Court,  Northern  District  of
California,  Northern Division. This case is a purported class action brought on
behalf of Mr. Bradley and others  similarly  situated  (VISA credit  cardholders
issued by Travelers Bank, hereinafter  "Travelers" although the Company believes
the plaintiff means Citibank),  against Travelers and VISA International (herein
"VISA") to (i) enjoin the  collection of debts charged to Traveler's  Visa cards
for gambling at Internet  casino  websites;  (ii) have Internet  casino gambling
declared unlawful; and (iii) recover all payments including principal,  interest
and penalties, received by Travelers and Visa related to such debts. Mr. Bradley
is alleging that  Travelers  and Visa were  facilitating,  participating  in and
profiting  from gambling by allowing Mr.  Bradley to use his Travelers Visa card
to purchase  "e-cash" at a website owned and operated by  Cryptologic,  Inc. and
Intersafe  Global which he accessed  from seven online  casino  operations.  Mr.
Bradley  proceeded to participate in certain games with his e-cash and allegedly
lost in the aggregate  $7,048.  The action alleges violation of the federal Wire
Act and the  federal  Racketeering  Influenced  and  Corrupt  Organizations  Act
("RICO").  Mr.  Bradley is seeking  treble  damages  pursuant to RICO,  punitive
damages and attorney's fees, in addition to compensatory damages and declaratory
relief.

         Humboldt  Bank  provides   merchant   processing  for  Cryptologic  and
Intersafe Global's credit card operations,  and on July 3, 2000, Citibank sent a
letter to Humboldt  Bank seeking  indemnity for the Bradley  action  pursuant to
VISA  regulations.  Humboldt Bank and Citibank have had preliminary  discussions
regarding  this  matter,  but Humboldt  Bank has not yet  formally  responded to
Citibank's  letter.  The  Bradley  action is in its  preliminary  stages and the
outcome at this time cannot be determined. The Bradley action is very similar to
another action entitled  Freeman,  et al. V. Citibank (South Dakota) NA, et al.,
filed in the Northern District of Alabama, Northern Division previously reported
by the  company  in  prior  filings  with  the  commission.  In the  event it is
ultimately  determined  that Humboldt  Bank is obligated to indemnify  Citibank,
Humboldt Bank intends to seek indemnity  against  Cryptologic,  Intersafe Global
and creditcards.com, the company which through its independent marketing efforts
presented   Cryptologic's  and  Intersafe  Global's  application  for  merchants
services to Humboldt Bank.

         (B) On June 23,  2000,  Humboldt  Bank  was  served  with two  lawsuits
entitled  Christopher  Bradford,  et. al, vs  Leasecomm  Corporation,  et.  al.,
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Middlesex, ss. (Superior Court Civil No. 00-2756)
and Frances M. Okougbo, et. al. vs Leasecomm Corporation,  et. al., Commonwealth
of Massachusetts,  Middlesex,  ss. (Superior Court Civil No. 00-2757). These are
purported  class  action  lawsuits  in which  plaintiffs  allege  that they were
charged excessive fees by defendants for entering into non cancellable equipment
leases and merchant  agreements in connection  with  establishing  a business in
which revenues may be received through credit card payments. In the Bradford and
Okougbo lawsuits,  plaintiffs are alleging, among other things, that Cardservice
International,   Inc  and  creditcards.com  used  deceptive  practices  to  sign
plaintiffs to merchant  agreements to establish  merchant accounts with Humboldt
Bank  and  were  charged  excessive  fees.  Cardservice  International,  Inc and
creditcards.com are independent service and marketing  organizations that market
Humboldt  Bank's  merchant  services.  In the  Bradford  and  Okougbo  lawsuits,
plaintiffs  are  also  alleging,  that  Humboldt  Bank  was  either  an agent of
Cardservice International, Inc and creditcards.com or Cardservice International,
Inc and  creditcards.com  was an agent of Humboldt  Bank and that  Humboldt Bank
should be jointly  and  severally  liable  for any  damages.  Plaintiffs  in the
Bradford and Okougbo lawsuits,  are seeking, among other things, a refund of all
monies paid,  including  costs and  interest,  and  attorney's  fees,  including
multiple damages.  These cases are in their initial stages and Humboldt Bank has
an  indemnification  agreement  with  Cardservice  International  and is seeking
indemnification from creditcards.com.

                                   (Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of  Management,  the  unaudited  interim  consolidated  financial
statements  contain all  adjustments  of a normal  recurring  nature,  which are
necessary to present  fairly the  financial  condition  of Humboldt  Bancorp and
Subsidiaries  at September 30, 2000 and results of operations  for the three and
nine months then ended.

Certain information and footnote  disclosures  presented in the Company's annual
financial  statements  are not included in these interim  financial  statements.
Accordingly,   the  accompanying   unaudited  interim   consolidated   financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto  included in the Company's  1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results
of  operations  for the three and nine months ended  September  30, 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results through December 31, 2000.

Note 2 - Consolidation

The consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of Humboldt Bancorp
and its wholly-owned  subsidiaries,  Humboldt Bank, Capitol Valley Bank, Capital
Thrift  and  Loan,  and  50%  in  Bancorp  Financial   Services.   All  material
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 3 - Commitments

The Company has  outstanding  performance  letters of credit of $2.8  million at
September 30, 2000, compared to $4.6 million at September 30, 1999.

Note 5 - Net Income Per Common Share

Net income per share is calculated by using the weighted  average  common shares
outstanding.  The weighted average number of common shares used in computing the
net income per  common  share for the period  ending  September  30,  2000,  was
5,701,720 and for the period ending September 30, 1999, was 4,992,488.

Net income per share  (diluted)  is  calculated  by using the  weighted  average
common  shares  (diluted)  outstanding.  The weighted  average  number of common
shares (diluted) used in computing the net income per common share (diluted) for
the period ending  September  30, 2000,  was 6,139,131 and for the period ending
