     The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared
     in  accordance  with  instructions  for Form 10-QSB and  therefore,  do not
     include  all  disclosures  necessary  for a  complete  presentation  of the
     consolidated   balance   sheets,   consolidated   statements   of   income,
     consolidated   statements  of   stockholders'   equity,   and  consolidated
     statements of cash flows in conformity with generally  accepted  accounting
     principles.   However,  all  adjustments  which  are,  in  the  opinion  of
     management,  necessary for the fair  presentation of the interim  financial
     statements  have  been  included.  All  such  adjustments  are of a  normal
     recurring  nature.  The  statements  of income  for the three and six month
     periods ending June 30, 2000 are not necessarily  indicative of the results
     which may be expected for the entire year or any other interim period.

     It is suggested  that these  consolidated  financial  statements be read in
     conjunction with the audited  consolidated  financial  statements and notes
     thereto  for the  Company  for the year ended  December  31, 1999 which are
     included in the Form 10-KSB by reference (file no. 0-22587).

2.   Earnings Per Share
     ------------------

     Basic  earnings  per common  share  ("EPS")  for all periods  presented  is
     computed by dividing  net income by the weighted  average  number of common
     share  outstanding.  Diluted  earnings  per  common  share is  computed  by
     dividing  net  income  available  to common  stockholders  by the  weighted
     average number of common shares  outstanding and dilutive  potential common
     shares,  which include stock options.  Dilutive potential common shares are
     calculated  using the treasury  stock  method.  Options to purchase  73,630
     shares of the Company's common stock were outstanding  during the three and
     six months ending June 30, 2000,  but were not included in the  computation
     of diluted EPS because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

The  Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995  contains  safe  harbor
provisions regarding forward-looking  statements.  When used in this discussion,
the words  "believes",  "anticipates",  "contemplates",  "expects",  and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties  which could cause actual results
to differ materially from those projected. Those risks and uncertainties include
changes in  interest  rates,  risk  associated  with the effect of opening a new
branch,  the  ability  to  control  costs and  expenses,  and  general  economic
conditions. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results
of any  revisions  to those  forward  looking  statements  which  may be made to
reflect  events  or  circumstances  after  the date  hereof  or to  reflect  the
occurrence of unanticipated events.

The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist in understanding the
financial condition and the results of operations of the Company.  References to
the "Company" include SFB Bancorp, Inc. and/or the Bank as appropriate.


Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ending June 30,
1999 and 2000

Net Income.  Net income for the three  months  ending June 30,  2000,  decreased
$12,000,  or 8.4%,  from  $143,000  in 1999,  to  $131,000  in 2000.  Net income
decreased $28,000, or 9.8%, to $257,000 for the six months ending June 30, 2000,
from  $285,000 in 1999.  The  decrease for the three month period ended June 30,
2000,  compared  to 1999,  was  principally  due to a decrease  in net  interest
income,  offset by lower  income tax  expense.  The  decrease for the six months
ending June 30, 2000,  compared to 1999, was primarily the result of an increase
in non-interest  expenses,  offset by lower income tax expense.  Dilutive income
per share  increased $.01, from $.22 for the three month ended June 30, 1999, to
$.23 for the  three  months  ended  June 30,  2000.  Dilutive  income  per share
decreased  $.01,  from $.44 for the six months ended June 30, 1999,  to $.43 for
the six months ended June 30, 2000.

Net Interest Income.  Net interest income decreased  $16,000,  from $502,000 for
the three months  ending June 30, 1999,  to $486,000 for the three months ending
June 30, 2000. Net interest income decreased  $3,000,  from $991,000 for the six
months  ending June 30,  1999,  to $988,000  for the six months  ending June 30,
2000.  The decrease in net  interest  income for the three month period in 2000,
primarily  reflects a net  decrease  in  average  interest-earning  assets  over
average  interest-bearing  liabilities of approximately $347,000, as compared to
the same period in 1999.  Furthermore,  the  interest  rate spread  decreased 19
basis  points to 2.87% for the three months  ending June 30,  2000,  compared to
1999,  while the net interest  margin  decreased  14 basis points to 3.81%.  The
overall decrease in net interest income for the six months ending June 30, 2000,

                                       9
<PAGE>

primarily reflects a 7 basis point decrease in net interest spread,  offset by a
net increase in average  interest-earning  assets over average  interest-bearing
liabilities of approximately  $218,000,  as compared to the same period in 1999.
The net interest  margin  increased to 3.90% for the six months  ending June 30,
2000, compared to 1999.

Interest Income.  Interest income increased $28,000, from $954,000 for the three
months  ending June 30, 1999,  to $982,000 for the three months  ending June 30,
2000. The increase was  attributable  to a increase in average  interest-earning
assets of approximately  $149,000, from $50.9 million at June 30, 1999, to $51.0
million  at  June  30,   2000,   and  a  increase  in  the   average   yield  on
interest-earning  assets of 20 basis  points,  from  7.50% for the three  months
ending  June 30,  1999,  to 7.70% for the same period in 2000.  Interest  income
increased  $38,000,  or 2.0%, to  approximately  $1.9 million for the six months
ending June 30, 2000,  as compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase was
primarily  attributable  to a increase in the average yield on  interest-earning
assets of 20 basis  points,  from 7.49% for the six months ending June 30, 1999,
to  7.69%  for the  same  period  in  2000,  offset  by a  decrease  in  average
interest-earning  assets of approximately  $290,000,  from $50.9 million at June
30, 1999, to $50.7 million at June 30, 2000.

Interest on loans  increased  $76,000 for the three months ending June 30, 2000,
as compared to the same period in 1999,  and $137,000 for the six months  ending
June 30, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999.  The increase in interest
on loans for the three  months  ending  June 30,  2000,  primarily  reflects  an
increase of approximately $4.6 million in the average loans outstanding  balance
for 2000,  compared to 1999,  offset by a 14 basis point decrease in the average
yield on loans from 8.11% in 1999, to 7.97% in 2000. The increase in interest on
loans for the six months ending June 30, 2000, primarily reflects an increase of
approximately  $4.3 million in the average loans  outstanding  balance for 2000,
compared to 1999,  offset by a 17 basis point  decrease in the average  yield on
loans from 8.13% in 1999, to 7.96% in 2000.

Interest on investment  securities  decreased $4,000 for the three months ending
June 30, 2000,  as compared to the same period in 1999,  and $10,000 for the six
months  ending  June 30,  2000,  as  compared  to the same  period in 1999.  The
decrease in interest on  investments  for the three months ending June 30, 2000,
primarily  reflects  a  decrease  of  approximately   $330,000  in  the  average
investment balance for 2000,  compared to 1999, and a 14 basis point decrease in
the  average  yield on  investments  from 5.42% in 1999,  to 5.28% in 2000.  The
decrease in interest on  investments  for the six months  ending June 30,  2000,
primarily  reflects  a  decrease  of  approximately   $461,000  in  the  average
investment balance for 2000,  compared to 1999. The average yield on investments
was 5.28% in 2000, compared 5.29% in 1999.

Interest on  interest-earning  deposits  decreased  $31,000 for the three months
ending June 30,  2000,  as compared to the same period in 1999,  and $64,000 for
the six months ending June 30, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999. The
decrease in interest on  interest-earning  deposits for the three months  ending
June  30,  2000,  primarily  reflects  a  decrease  in the  average  balance  of
interest-earning  deposits  of $3.1  million  for 2000,  compared  to 1999.  The
decrease in interest on interest-earning deposits for the six months ending June
30,   2000,   primarily   reflects  a  decrease  in  the   average   balance  of
interest-earning deposits of $3.1 million for 2000, compared to 1999.

                                       10

Interest on  mortgage-backed  securities  decreased $13,000 for the three months
ending June 30,  2000,  as compared to the same period in 1999,  and $25,000 for
the six months  ending June 30, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999, as
the portfolio  continued to pay down  principal and those funds were invested in
other earning assets.

The $3.1  million  decrease in average  interest-earning  deposits  for both the
three and six month periods in 2000,  compared to 1999, along with the principal
payments from mortgage-backed  securities were used to fund loan demand, deposit
withdrawals and stock repurchases.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $44,000 from $452,000 for the three
months  ending June 30, 1999,  to $496,000 for the three months  ending June 30,
2000. Interest expense increased $41,000 from $918,000 for the six months ending
June 30, 1999, to $959,000 for the six months ending June 30, 2000. The increase
for the three months  ending June 30,  2000,  was  primarily  the result of a 39
basis point increase in the average cost of funds and an increase in the average
interest-bearing  liabilities of approximately  $496,000,  compared to 1999. The
increase for the six months ending June 30, 2000,  was primarily the result of a
26 basis point  increase in the average cost of funds,  offset by an approximate
$508,000 decrease in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities for the
six months ending June 30, 2000, compared to 1999.

Provision for Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses was $9,000 three month
period  ending  June 30, 1999 and 2000,  respectively.  The  provision  for loan
losses was  $18,000  for the six month  period  ending  June 30,  1999 and 2000,
respectively.  The  Company's  management  routinely  performs  an  analysis  to
quantify the inherent risk of loss in its portfolio. At June 30, 2000, the ratio
of the allowance  for loan loss was at a level deemed  adequate by management to
provide for losses in the loan  portfolio.  The ratio of allowance for loan loss
to  non-performing  loans at June 30, 2000, was 134%, and  nonperforming  assets
represented  0.52% of  total  consolidated  assets.  Nonperforming  assets  were
$276,000 at June 30, 2000, compared to $385,000 at June 30, 1999.  Management is
not aware of any trends or events  inherent to its loan  portfolio that have not
been provided for in its loan loss allowance. However, there can be no assurance
that  future  losses  will  not  exceed  estimated  amounts  or that  additional
provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income continues to be an additional source of
income for the  Company.  The income is produced by fees on new loan  production
and service  fees on other  products and  services.  Total  non-interest  income
amounted to $46,000 and  $100,000  for the three and six months  ending June 30,
2000, respectively,  and $45,000 and $90,000 for the three and six months ending
June 30, 1999, respectively.

Non-Interest  Expense.  Non-interest expense increased $6,000, from $309,000 for
the three months  ending June 30, 1999,  to $315,000 for 2000.  The increase was
primarily  the result of a combined  $19,000  increase in net occupancy and data
processing expenses, offset by a $11,000 reduction in deposit insurance premiums
and other expenses  incurred during the period.  Non-interest  expense increased
$57,000,  from $606,000 for the six months ending June 30, 1999, to $663,000 for
2000. The increase was primarily the result of increased compensation expense of
$39,000,  a combined  $35,000  increase  in net  occupancy  and data  processing
expenses,  offset by a

                                       11
<PAGE>

$18,000  reduction in deposit  insurance  premiums and other  expenses  incurred
during the period. The increase in compensation expense for the six months ended
June  30,  2000,  was  primarily  attributable  normal  compensation  increases,
combined  with the addition of extra  personnel  associated  with the new branch
office in Mountain City,  Tennessee.  The decrease in other non-interest expense
for both the three and six months  ending June 30, 2000,  compared to 1999,  was
mainly  attributable  to  management's  attempt  to  control  general  operating
expenses and those expenses associated with being a public company. The increase
in net occupancy expense for both the three and six months ending June 30, 2000,
compared to 1999, was mainly attributable to expenses associated with the Bank's
additional  branch  office in Mountain  City,  Tennessee.  The  increase in data
processing was for both the three and six months ending June 30, 2000,  compared
to  1999,  mainly  was  attributable  to  expenses   associated  with  increased
transaction  volumes,  data  communications  expenses,  and the teller operating
system.  The decrease in deposit  insurance  premiums for both the three and six
months  ending June 30,  2000,  compared to 1999,  was  attributable  to reduced
insurance assessment rates beginning January 1, 2000.

Income Taxes.  Income tax expense for the three months ending June 30, 2000, was
$77,000, compared to $86,000 for the same period in 1999. Income tax expense for
the six months ending June 30, 2000, was $150,000,  compared to $172,000 for the
same  period in 1999.  The  decrease  for the three  and six month  periods  was
principally the result of lower pre-tax income.  The effective tax rate for both
the three and six months in 1999 and 2000 was approximately 37%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.  The Company's primary sources of funds are new
deposits, proceeds from principal and interest payments on loans, and repayments
