                    IBW FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note A  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of IBW Financial
Corporation and Subsidiary (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-QSB.  Accordingly, they do not include all the
information and footnotes required for complete financial statements.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications consistently, of a
normal and recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included.  Operating results for the three month period ended March 31,
1998, are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ended December 31, 1998.  The unaudited consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes for the year-ended December 31, 1997.

Note B  New Accounting Pronouncement


As of January 1, 1998, the company adopted, SFAS No. 130 Reporting Comprehensive
Income.  SFAS No.130 requires comprehensive income to be reported in a financial
statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial
statements, thereby permitting companies to display the components of other
comprehensive income below the total for net income in an income statement, in a
separate statement that begins with net income, or in a statement of changes to
equity.  Such requirement would apply to all enterprises that provide a full set
of financial statements.  This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1997.  Reclassification of financial statements for earlier
periods for comparative purposes is required.  (See Consolidated Balance Sheets
and Statement of Income)

The company also adopted as of January 1, 1998, SFAS No.131, Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.  SFAS No.131 establishes
standards for the way that public enterprises report information about operating
segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises
report selected information about operating segments in interim financial
reports issued to shareholders.  It also establishes standards for related
disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers.
SFAS No.131 is effective for financial statements beginning after December
15,1997.

The implementation of SFAS 131 did not have a significant effect on the
Company's financial statements and related footnote disclosures.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

As of and for the Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 (dollars in thousands)

     Forward looking statements.  This discussion contains forward looking
statements within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, including statements of goals, intentions, and expectations as to
future trends, plans, events or results of Company operations and policies and
regarding general economic conditions.  These statements are based upon current
and anticipated economic conditions, nationally and in the Company's market,
interest rates and interest rate policy, competitive factors and other
conditions which, by their nature, are not susceptible to accurate forecast, and
are subject to significant uncertainty.  Because of these uncertainties and the
assumptions on which this discussion and the forward looking statements are
based, actual future operations and results in the future may differ materially
from those indicated herein.  Readers are cautioned against placing undue
reliance on any such forward looking statement.  The Company does not undertake
to update any forward looking statement to reflect occurrences or events which
may not have been anticipated as of the date of such statements.

Overview

     IBW Financial Corporation's net income for the first quarter of 1998
totaled ($167), a decrease of $407, or 170% from the comparable period of 1997.
This decrease is primarily attributed to an increase in the provision for loan
losses of $784, an increase in noninterest expenses of $316, offset by an
increase of  net interest income of $211, an increase in noninterest income of
$237 and a decrease in taxes of $245.  Return on average assets (ROAA), and
return on average shareholder's equity (ROAE) through the first quarters of 1998
and 1997 were (.27%) and (3.26%), .40% and 5.61%, respectively.


Net Interest Income

     Net interest income increased $211, or 8% over the comparable period in
1997.  Interest on loans increased by $215, or 9%, reflecting higher levels of
loans.  Interest on securities increased $79, or 5%, reflecting higher levels of
mortgage backed securities, and obligations of states and political
subdivisions, and lower levels of U.S. Treasury securities.  Interest on federal
funds sold and other increased $39, or 19%, from the 1997 comparable period due
primarily to higher volume of federal folds sold.  Interest expense increased
$122, or  9%, attributed primarily to a higher volume of repurchase agreements,
averaging $20,274 for the three months ending March 31, 1998 compared to $12,695
for the comparable period in 1997.  Interest expense related to deposits
increased $39, while interest expense related to repurchase agreements increased
$83.  On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 increased $187, or 7%, over the comparable period in 1997.  The
increase was primarily attributable to an increase in average interest-earning
assets, an increase in the net interest spread and principally offset by an
increase in average interest-bearing liabilities.  Average interest-earning
assets increased by $13 million, or 6%, comprised principally of growth in loans
of $7 million, taxable securities of $7 million  and $2 million in federal funds
sold, partially offset by a decline of $4 million in nontaxable securities.

     The interest rate spread was unchanged and stood at 4.47% for both the
three months ending March 1997 and March 1998. However, the components of net
interest income changed reflecting an increase in the average rate earned on
interest-earning assets, except for federal funds sold, and a substantiaL
increase in the average volume of repurchase agreements.

     Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $8,151, or 5%, during the
three months ending March 31, 1998, as compared to the comparable period in
1997, due primarily to an increase in  borrowings.   Borrowings consist of
repurchase agreements in the amount of $21,238 at March 31, and the note payable
of $1,000.

Provision for Loan Losses

     The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb losses on
existing loans and commitments that may become uncollectible.  The provision for
loan losses increased $784 in the first quarter of 1998, to $1,209, from $425
for the three months ended March 31, 1997.  The increase in the provision for
loan losses is attributable to the increase in nonperforming assets and an
increase in loans with potential credit problems.  Nonperforming assets
increased to $2,822 at March 31, 1998 from $2,127 at year end 1997, representing
an increase of $695 or 33%. Loans with potential credit problems increased to
$8,537 at March 31, 1998 from $7,931 at year-end 1997,




                                      -5-
<PAGE>
 
representing an increase of $606, or 8%. See the Non-Performing Assets section
for additional information related to the Company's allowance for loan losses.

Noninterest Income

     Noninterest income increased $237, or 36%, to $902 for March 1998 compared
to $665 for March 1997.  The increase is attributed to $92 of ATM surcharges on
nondepositors and $121 in security gains.  There were no security gains or ATM
surcharges during the first quarter of 1997.

Noninterest Expense

     Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 1998 increased $316, or 12%,
over the comparable period of 1997.  This increase is attributed primarily to an
increase of $286 in salaries and employee benefits, an increase of $21 in
occupancy expenses, an increase of $14  in furniture and equipment expenses, and
an increase of $12 in data processing costs, partially offset by a $16 decrease
in other expenses.  The increase in salaries and benefits was attributed largely
to $104 of various salary accruals and $28 in 401K expenses during the first
quarter of 1998 compared to none during the first quarter of 1997.  The
remaining $154 represents primarily  salary and benefits increases, including
those relating to additional staffing for the Rhode Island Avenue Branch, which
opened during the second quarter of 1997.

Provision for Income Taxes

     The provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 1998 decreased $245
to ($157), or 278%, from the comparable period of 1997, and was attributable  to
lower income before taxes primarily due to  larger provision for loan losses.

Financial Overview

     Total assets increased $4 million, or 2%, from December 31, 1997 to March
31, 1998, mainly due to an  increase in cash and cash equivalents of $6 million,
offset primarily by a decrease in loans of $2 million.  The increase in assets
was primarily funded by deposit growth of $2 million and repurchase agreements
growth of  $2 million.  Total shareholders' equity decreased $634 due to the
decrease in retained earnings of  $376 and the decrease in the unrealized gain
on available-for-sale securities of $258.   $208 in dividends were declared
during the first quarter of 1998.

     The carrying value of the Company's securities portfolio was virtually
unchanged at $101 million at December 31, 1997 and March 31, 1998.  This
composition reflected a change as mortgage-backed securities increased  $2
million to $59 million, while tax-exempt securities decreased $2 million to $10
million from December 31, 1997 to March 31, 1998.   The mortgage-backed
securities portfolio had a weighted-average remaining maturity of 2.10 years at
March 31, 1998 compared to 2.29 years at December 31, 1997.  The collateral
underlying all the mortgage-backed securities is guaranteed by one of the
"Quasi-Governmental" agencies, and therefore maintains a risk weight of 20% for
risk-based capital purposes.  Management's analysis of mortgage-related
securities includes, but is not limited to, the average lives, seasonality,
coupon and historic behavior (including prepayment history) of each particular
security over its life, as affected by various interest rate environments.
Stress tests are performed on each security on a quarterly basis as part of
management's ongoing analysis.  There are no issuers of securities held by the
Company, the securities of which have a book value in excess of 10% of
shareholders' equity.

     The allowance for loan losses was $2.5 million at March 31, 1998 compared
to $1.7 million at December 31, 1997.  The increase in the level of the
allowance for loan losses as a percentage of ending loans reflects the increase
in nonperforming assets.  Nonperforming assets increased $695 or 33% to $2,822
from $2,127 at year-end 1997. Loans with potential credit problems (excluding
nonperforming assets) increased to $8,537 at March 31, 1998 from $7,931 at year-
end 1997, representing an increase of $606 or 8%  The ratio of allowance for
possible loan losses to total loans increased to 2.14% at March 31, 1998 from
1.43% at year-end 1997.  At March 31, 1998 and year-end 1997, non-performing
assets represented 1.11% and .85% respectively of total assets.

</TABLE>

     The level of the allowance for loan losses is determined by management on
the basis of various assumptions and judgments. These include levels and trends
of past due and non-accrual loans, trends in volume and changes in terms,
effects of policy changes, experience and depth of management, anticipated
economic conditions in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, concentrations of
credit, the composition of the loan portfolio, prior loan loss experience, and
the ongoing and periodic reviews of the loan portfolio by the Company's internal
and external loan review function.  For impaired loans, the Company establishes
reserves in accordance with SFAS 114 and SFAS 118, and for non-impaired loans
uses an allocation approach which relies on historical loan loss experience,
adjusted to reflect current conditions and trends.

     Although management believes that it uses the best information available to
make such determinations that the allowance for loan losses is adequate as of
the dates shown, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary, and net
income could be significantly affected, if circumstances and/or economic
conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial
determinations.  Any downturn in the real estate market or general economic
conditions in the Washington, DC metropolitan area could result in the Company
experiencing

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
 
increased levels of non-performing assets and charge-offs, significant
provisions for loan losses, and significant reductions in net income.
Additionally, various regulatory agencies periodically review the Company's
allowance for loan losses.  Such agencies may require the recognition of
additions to the allowance based on their judgments or information available to
them at the time of their examination.  In light of the foregoing, there can be
no assurance that management's determinations as to the future adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses will prove accurate, or that additional provisions or
charge-offs will not be required.

     The following table sets forth information concerning non-performing
assets.

1.   Loans are placed on non-accrual status when in the opinion of management
     the collection of additional interest is unlikely or a specific loan meets
     the criteria for non-accrual status established by regulatory authorities.
     No interest is taken into income on non-accrual loans unless received in
     cash.  A loan remains on non-accrual status until the loan is current to
     both principal and interest and the borrower demonstrates the ability to
     pay and remain current, or the loan becomes well secured and is in the
     process of collection.  The gross interest income that would have been
     recorded in the three months ended March 31, 1998 and the year ended
     December 31, 1997 for non-accrual loans  had the loans been current in
     accordance with their original terms was $26 and $223, respectively.



     At March 31, 1998, there were $8,537 of loans not reflected in the table
above, where known information about possible credit problems of borrowers
caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply
with present loan repayment terms and that may result in disclosure of such
loans in the future.  This represents an increase of $606 or 6% from year-end
1997. Included in the total are nineteen loans, totaling $5,290 fully
collateralized by  real estate, three of which represent $3,615 or 68% of the
total. The remaining $2,459 consists of fifteen commercial loans, one at  $708
or 29% of the remaining amount, secured primarily by accounts receivable and
various business equipment.
