 SELECTED NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                         March 31, 2000

Note 1 : Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein
reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
present a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented. All
such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The balance sheet data at
June 30, 1999 is derived from audited financial statements of Provident
Financial Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"). Certain information and note
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is suggested that
these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30,
1999 (File No. 0-28304) of the Company. Certain amounts in the prior period's
financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to the current
period's presentation.

Note 2: Earnings Per Share

Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to
common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for
the period. Diluted EPS 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
would then share in the earnings of the entity. The following tables provide
the basic and diluted EPS computations for the quarter and nine months ended
March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Note 4 : SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities"

This statement establishes new accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging
activities. This Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133
was amended by SFAS No. 137 to extend the implementation date for one year.
SFAS No. 133 will become effective for fiscal quarters beginning after June
15, 2000. Management is assessing the impact of SFAS No. 133, if any, and will
adopt this statement in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30,
2001.

ITEM 2   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

General
Provident Financial Holdings, Inc. ("Provident Financial" or the "Company"), a
Delaware corporation, was organized in January 1996 for the purpose of
becoming the holding company for Provident Savings Bank, F.S.B. ("Savings
Bank") upon the Savings Bank's conversion from a federal mutual to a federal
stock savings bank ("Conversion"). The Conversion was completed on June 27,
1996. At March 31, 2000, the Company had total assets of $1.2 billion, total
deposits of $708.5 million and stockholders' equity of $86.7 million.
Provident Financial has not engaged in any significant activity other than
holding the stock of the Savings Bank. Accordingly, the information set forth
in this report, including financial statements and related data, relates
primarily to the Savings Bank and its subsidiaries.

The Savings Bank, founded in 1956, is a federally chartered savings bank
headquartered in Riverside, California. The Savings Bank is regulated by the
Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), its primary federal regulator, and the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), the insurer of its deposits.
The Savings Bank's deposits are federally insured up to applicable limits by
FDIC (under the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF")). The Savings Bank
has been a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") system since 1956.

The Savings Bank's business consists of traditional savings and loan
operations and mortgage banking activities. The savings and loan operations
primarily consist of accepting deposits from customers within the communities
surrounding the Savings Bank's full service offices and investing these funds
in one-to-four-family mortgage loans and, to a lesser extent, in multi-family,
commercial real estate, construction, business, consumer and other loans.
Mortgage banking activities consist of the origination and sale of mortgage
loans secured by one-to-four-family residences and the servicing of such loans
for others. In addition, the Savings Bank also facilitates business loans,
business checking accounts and other business banking services. The Savings
Bank's revenues are derived principally from interest on its loan and
investment portfolio and fees generated through its mortgage banking
activities.

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and
results of operations of the Company. The information contained in this
section should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Interim Consolidated
Financial Statements and accompanying Selected Notes to Unaudited Interim
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2000 and June 30, 1999

Total assets increased by $208.4 million, or 22 percent, to $1.2 billion at
March 31, 2000 from $957.4 million at June 30, 1999. This increase was
primarily the result of an increase of $184.6 million, or 26 percent, in total
net loans receivable to $891.7 million at March 31, 2000 from $707.1 million
at June 30, 1999. The rapid growth in portfolio loans was primarily
attributable to a shift in borrower preference toward adjustable rate loans,
which are typically held in portfolio, from fixed rate mortgages, which are
typically sold; and the economic characteristics of the Company's market area.
Funding for this growth was provided by an increase of $75.6 million in
deposits and an increase of $137.3 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

                                      9

<PAGE>



With the current interest rate environment, the Company adopted measures to
control its exposure to interest rate risk. One such measure is the sale of
the current production of all single family, first trust deed, residential
mortgage loans. As a result of this strategy, total loans decreased by $21.5
million to $891.7 million from $913.2 million at the end of the second
quarter. The proceeds of the loan sales were used to pay down FHLB advances.
In addition, the Company began in January 2000 to lengthen the average
maturity of its existing FHLB advances in anticipation of additional rate
increases. These measures, along with others, are intended to raise the
Company's current capital position through reducing the amount of leverage and
thus seeking to mitigate the impact of future interest rate hikes.

Total stockholders' equity decreased by $3.0 million during the period ended
March 31, 2000, which resulted from the completion of the Company's 10 percent
common stock repurchase program announced in July 1999, totaling 439,000
shares or $8.2 million. On March 8, 2000, the Company announced another 5
percent stock repurchase program. No shares have been repurchased under this
program.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarter and Nine Months Ended March
31, 2000 and 1999

The Company's net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 was $1.6
million, a decrease of $378,000, or 19 percent, from $2.0 million during the
same quarter in 1999. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease
in the gain on sale of loans, which was due to the recent increase in interest
rates and lower loan production and sales (please refer to the discussion
below on Non-interest income). For the nine months ended March 31, 2000 and
1999, the Company's net income was $5.0 million and $5.1 million,
respectively.

The Company's net interest income increased by 11 percent to $7.3 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $6.6 million during the comparable
period of 1999. The increase in net interest income reflects growth in average
earning assets. The average earning assets during the third quarter 2000 were
$1.1 billion, an increase of $307.4 million, or 37 percent, as compared to
$835.0 million during the same quarter last year. The effect of earning asset
growth was partially offset by a lower net interest margin. The net interest
margin narrowed to 2.57 percent in the third quarter from 3.15 percent during
the same period of 1999. For the nine months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999,
net interest income was $21.8 million and $18.1 million, respectively.

The Company's efficiency ratio increased to 69 percent in the third quarter
from 64 percent in the same period of 1999. This increase was attributable to
the decrease in mortgage banking revenue. For the nine months ended March 31,
2000 and 1999, the efficiency ratio was 68 percent and 67 percent,
respectively.

Return on average assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was
0.53 percent and 0.90 percent, respectively. For the nine months ended March
31, 2000 and 1999, the return on average assets was 0.61 percent and 0.81
percent, respectively.

Return on average equity for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was
7.38 percent and 9.24 percent, respectively. For the nine months ended March
31, 2000 and 1999, the return on average equity was 7.77 percent and 8.14
percent, respectively.

Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 was $0.45, a
decrease of 6 percent from $0.48 in the quarter ended March 31, 1999. For nine
months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the diluted earnings per share were
$1.35 and $1.23, respectively. The increase in the net earnings per share
reflects the Company's stock repurchase programs during fiscal years 1999 and
2000.

Interest Income. Interest income increased by $5.8 million, or 39 percent, to
$20.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $14.9 million during
the same quarter in 1999. This increase was the result of growth in average
earning assets and higher overall market rates. The average earnings assets
during the third quarter 2000 were $1.1 billion as compared to $835.0 million
during the same period last year. The average yield on earning assets during
the third quarter of fiscal 2000 was 7.25%, 12 basis points higher than the
average yield of 7.13 percent during the same period last year.

                                   10

Loan interest income increased by $4.2 million, or 32 percent, to $17.3
million in the quarter ended March 31, 2000 as compared to $13.1 million for
the same period in 1999. This increase was attributable to growth in average
loans, including those available for sale, from $716.0 million during the
third quarter of fiscal 1999 to $916.8 million during the same quarter of
fiscal 2000. The average loan yield during the third quarter of fiscal 2000
was 7.53 percent as compared to 7.32 percent during the same quarter last
year.

The interest income from investment securities, including Federal Home Loan
Bank ("FHLB") stock, increased by $1.7 million, or 94 percent to $3.4 million
during the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $1.8 million during the same
quarter in 1999. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in the
amount of average investment securities and an increase in the average yield.
The average investment securities increased by $106.6 million, or 90 percent,
to $225.6 million during the third quarter of 2000 from $119.0 million in the
same quarter last year. The average yield on investment securities increased
by 13 basis points to 6.09% during the third quarter fiscal 2000 from 5.96%
during the same period last year.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, the interest income increased by
$13.3 million, or 30 percent, to $57.1 million as compared to $43.8 million
for the same period in 1999. This increase was attributable to an increase in
average earnings assets from $816.4 million during the nine months of fiscal
1999 to $1.1 billion during the same period of fiscal 2000. The interest
income on loans increased by $7.8 million, or 20 percent, to $47.1 million
during the nine months of fiscal 2000 from $39.3 million during the same
period of fiscal 1999. The average loans increased from $715.0 million to
$838.8 million during the nine months in fiscal 1999 and 2000, respectively.
The average yield on loans increased by 15 basis points to 7.48 percent during
the nine months of fiscal 2000 as compared to 7.33 percent during the same
period in fiscal 1999. The interest income on investments also increased by
$5.5 million, or 121 percent, to $10.0 million during the nine months of
fiscal 2000 from $4.6 million during the same period of fiscal 1999. The
average investments increased from $101.4 million to $220.3 million during the
nine months in fiscal 1999 and 2000, respectively. The average yield on
investments increased by 11 basis points to 6.10 percent during the nine-month
period in fiscal 2000 as compared to 5.99 percent during the same period last
year. As a result, the overall average yield on earning assets increased by 3
basis points to 7.19 percent during the nine months of fiscal 2000 as compared
7.16 percent during to the same period in fiscal 1999.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 was
$13.4 million as compared to $8.3 million for the same period in 1999, an
increase of $5.1 million, or 61 percent. This increase was primarily
attributable to increases in average FHLB advances and deposits as well as the
cost of both. The average cost of liabilities was 4.98 percent during the
quarter ended March 31, 2000, up 54 basis points as compared to 4.44 percent
from the same period in 1999. Average deposits increased by $76.9 million, or
13 percent, to $702.9 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to $626.0 million during the same period in 1999. The average rate
paid on deposits increased to 4.45 percent during the quarter ended March 31,
2000 from 4.32 percent during the same quarter in 1999. The increase in the
average rate on deposits was due to higher market rates and the Company's
efforts to extend the deposit maturities. Borrowings, which are mainly FHLB
advances, averaged $375.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2000 as
compared to $132.0 million for the same quarter in 1999. The average rate paid
on the borrowings increased to 5.97 percent for the quarter ended March 31,
2000 from 5.01 percent in the same quarter in 1999. This increase resulted
from the lengthening of short-term borrowings to mitigate the future impact of
rising rates.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, total interest expense increased by
$9.7 million, or 38 percent, to $35.4 million as compared to $25.7 million for
the same period in 1999. The average cost of liabilities increased by 9 basis
points to 4.72 percent during the nine months of fiscal 2000 as compared to
4.63 percent during the same period in fiscal 1999. Average deposits increased
by $75.7 million, or 12 percent, to $686.6 million as compared to $610.9
million during the same period in fiscal 1999. The average cost of deposits
decreased by 15 basis points to 4.33 percent during the nine months of fiscal
2000 as compared to 4.48 percent during the same period in fiscal 1999.
Average borrowings increased by $178.1 million, or 137 percent, to $307.7
million as compared to $129.6 million during the same period in fiscal 1999.
The average cost of borrowings increased by 28 basis points to 5.61 percent
during the nine months of fiscal 2000 as compared to 5.33 percent during the
same period in fiscal 1999.

Provision for Loan Losses.  The Company increased its provision for loan
losses by $100,000 during the third quarter of fiscal 2000 to $175,000 as
compared to $75,000 for the same period in fiscal 1999. This measure was taken
because of substantial growth in the loan portfolio during the prior two
quarters. The allowance for loan losses was $6.9 million at March 31, 2000, an
increase from $6.4 million a year earlier. The allowance as a percent of gross
loans held for investment at March 31, 2000 was 0.81 percent as compared to
1.00 percent at March 31, 1999. Net charge offs were $10,000 during the nine
months of fiscal 2000 as compared to net charge offs of $205,000 during the
same period of fiscal 1999.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level sufficient to provide
for estimated losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the loan
portfolio and upon management's continuing analysis of the factors underlying
the quality of the loan portfolio. These factors include changes in the size
and composition of the loan portfolio, actual loan loss experience, current
and anticipated economic conditions, detailed analysis of individual loans for
which full collectibility may not be assured, and determination of the
realizable value of the collateral securing the loans. Provisions for losses
are charged against operations on a monthly basis as necessary to maintain the
allowance at appropriate levels. Management believes that the amount
maintained in the allowance will be adequate to absorb losses inherent in the
portfolio. Although management believes it uses the best information available
to make such determinations, there can be no assurance that regulators, in
reviewing the Company's loan portfolio, will not request the Company to
increase significantly its allowance for loan losses. Future adjustments to
the allowance for loan losses may be necessary and results of operations could
be significantly and adversely affected due to economic, operating,
regulatory, and other conditions beyond the control of the Company.

The Company addresses loans individually and identifies impairment when the
accrual of interest has been discontinued, loans have been restructured or
management has serious doubts about the future collectibility of principal and
interest, even though the loans are currently performing. Factors considered
in determining impairment include, but are not limited to, expected future
cash flows, financial condition of the borrower and the current economic
conditions. The Company measures each impaired loan based on the fair value of
its collateral and charges off those loans or portions of loans deemed
uncollectible.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased by $1.4 million, or 47
percent, to $1.6 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $3.0
million during the same period in 1999. The decrease in non-interest income
was primarily attributable to a decrease in gains from the sale of loans.
Total loans sold during the third quarter of fiscal 2000 decreased by $63.3
million, or 33 percent, to $130.7 million as compared to $193.9 million in the
same period in fiscal 1999. The ratio of gains to loans sold was 0.21 percent
in the third quarter 2000, down from 1.0 percent a year earlier.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, the non-interest income decreased by
$3.5 million, or 37 percent, to $5.6 million as compared to $9.4 million for
the same period in 1999. Total loans sold during the nine months of fiscal
2000 decreased by $242.4 million, or 46 percent, to $281.3 million as compared
to $523.8 million in the same period in fiscal 1999. The ratio of gains to
loans sold was 0.61 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2000, down
from 1.0 percent a year earlier.

Non-Interest Expenses.  Non-interest expenses decreased by $63,000 to $6.0
million during the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $6.1 million in the same
period in 1999. This decrease was primarily attributable to (a) a decrease in
the incentive based compensation related to the loan production/mortgage
banking division and (b) a decrease in professional expenses associated with
last year's Y2K consultant costs. These decreases were partially offset by (a)
an increase in equipment expenses as a result of the computer system
renovation/ Y2K project, (b) an increase in depreciation and office rentals as
a result of additional offices for the banking and mortgage operations, and
(c) an increase in sales and marketing expenses as a result of the Company's
general image advertising and deposit campaigns. Non-interest expenses as
percentage of average assets improved to 2.03 percent during the third quarter
of fiscal 2000 from 2.80 percent during the same period in fiscal 1999.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, the non-interest expenses increased
by $387,000 to $18.5 million as compared to $18.1 million for the same period
in 1999. This increase was due primarily because the increases in equipment
and marketing expenses were greater than the decrease in the incentive based
compensation. Non-interest expenses as percentage of average assets also
improved to 2.23 percent during the nine months of fiscal 2000 from 2.84
percent during the same period in fiscal 1999.

Income taxes.  Income tax expense was $1.1 million for the quarter ended March
31, 2000 as compared to $1.4 million during the same period in 1999. For the
nine months ended March 31, 2000, the income tax expense was $3.7 million as
compared to $3.8 million during the same period in 1999. The effective tax
rate for the third quarter and for nine months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999
was 42 percent.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.  The Company's primary sources of funding
include deposits, proceeds from loan principal and interest payments, sales of
loans, the maturity of and interest income on investment securities, and FHLB
advances. The Savings Bank has a credit line available with the FHLB of San
Francisco equal to 40 percent of total assets, which, on March 31, 2000
permitted additional advances of $131.8 million, in addition to having
unsecured lines of $74 million with its correspondent banks. While maturities
and scheduled amortization of loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit
flows, loan sales, and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general
interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.

The primary investing activity of the Company is the origination of mortgage
loans through the Savings Bank. For the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the
Savings Bank originated $127.6 million of loans as compared to $207.0 million
during the same period in 1999. For nine months ended March 31, 2000, the Bank
originated $551.0 million of loans as compared to $694.3 million during the
same period in 1999. This activity was funded primarily by loan sales, loan
principal payments, deposits and FHLB advances. For the quarter ended March
31, 2000, loan sales aggregated $130.7 million and loan principal payments
totaled $22.7 million. For nine months ended March 31, 2000, loans sales
aggregated $281.3 million and loan principal payments totaled $95.6 million.

By regulation, the Savings Bank must maintain a minimum liquidity equal to 4
percent of deposits and short-term borrowings. Liquidity is measured by cash
and readily marketable securities which are not committed, pledged, or
required as collateral for specific liabilities. The Savings Bank's average
liquidity ratios for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999 were 9.5
percent and 16.9 percent, respectively.

The Savings Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum requirements
can initiate certain mandatory actions by regulators that, if undertaken,
could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements.
Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective actions, the Savings Bank must meet certain specific capital
guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Savings Bank's assets,
liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under
regulatory accounting practices. The Savings Bank's capital amounts and
classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators
about components, risk-weightings, and other factors. The Savings Bank's
actual and required capital amounts and ratios as of March 31, 2000 are as
follows (dollars in thousands):

                                                  Amount       Percent
