                 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                (Unaudited)

(1)  Organization and Basis of Presentation
     --------------------------------------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in
accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all
disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition,
results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.  However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim unaudited
financial statements have been included.  All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements included in the Riverview Bancorp, Inc.
1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three
months and six months ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative
of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

(2) Principles of Consolidation
    ---------------------------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Riverview
Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") include all the accounts of
Riverview Bancorp, Inc. and the consolidated accounts of its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Riverview Community Bank (the "Community Bank"), and the Community
Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, Riverview Services, Inc.  Significant
inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidation.

(3) Comprehensive Income
    --------------------
Effective April 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income.  SFAS No. 130
requires all items that are required to be recognized under accounting
standards as components of comprehensive income to be reported in a financial
statement that is displayed in equal prominence with the other financial
statements and to disclose as a part of shareholders' equity accumulated
comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity
during a period from transactions and other events from nonowner sources.  The
Company has chosen, for purposes of its interim financial reporting, to
present comprehensive income in the notes to financial statements.

                                       5
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Comprehensive income is the total of net income and other comprehensive
income, which for the Company is comprised entirely of unrealized gains and
losses on securities available for sale and gains and losses on sale of
securities available for sale.

For the three and six months ended September 30, 1998, the Company's total
comprehensive income was $990,000 and $2.3 million, respectively, compared to
$678,000 and $1.4 million for the three and six months ended September 30,
1997, respectively.

Total comprehensive income for the three and six months ended September 30,
1998 is comprised of net income of $1.2 million and $2.4 million and other
comprehensive income (loss) of $(176,000) and $(171,000), net of tax,
respectively. Other comprehensive income for the three and six months ended
September 30, 1998, consists of unrealized securities losses of $(170,000) and
$(148,000), net of tax benefits less gains on securities available for sale
included in non-interest income of $6,000 and $23,000, net of tax,
respectively.

Total comprehensive income for the three and six months ended September 30,
1997 is comprised of net income of $756,000 and $1.5 million and other
comprehensive income (loss) of $(78,000) and $(96,000), net of tax,
respectively. Other comprehensive income for the three and six months ended
September 30, 1997, consists of unrealized securities losses of $(62,000) and
$(74,000), net of tax benefits less gains on securities available for sale
included in non-interest income of $16,000 and $22,000, net of tax,
respectively.

(4) Earnings Per Share
    ------------------
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period,
without considering any dilutive items.  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing
net income applicable to common stock by the weighted average number of common
shares and common stock equivalents for items that are dilutive, net of shares
assumed to be repurchased using the treasury stock method at the average share
price for the Company's common stock during the period.  Common stock
equivalents arise from assumed conversion of outstanding stock options. 
Employee Stock Ownership Plan shares are not considered outstanding for
earnings per share purposes until they are allocated.

The Community Bank sells substantially all long-term fixed rate mortgage loans
in the secondary market.  All such loans held for sale are identified as held
for sale at the time of origination and are carried at the lower of cost or
estimated market value on an aggregate portfolio basis.  Market values are
derived from available market quotations for comparable pools of mortgage
loans.  Adjustments for unrealized losses, if any, are charged to income.

(10) Stockholders' Equity
     --------------------
Stock Option Plan

On July 23, 1998, shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the
1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") which authorizes the grant of stock
options.  The 1998 Plan is effective October 1, 1998 and the plan will expire
on the tenth anniversary of the effective date, unless terminated sooner by
the board.  The maximum number of shares of common stock of the Company to be
issued under the 1998 Plan is 357,075.  Under the 1998 Plan 132,426 shares of
common stock shall be granted to executive officers and 39,992 common stock
shares shall be granted to non-employee directors.

Management Recognition and Development Plan 

On July 23, 1998, shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of the
Management Recognition and Development Plan ("MRDP") for the benefit of
officers, employees and non-employee directors of the Company and its
subsidiaries.

The objective of the MRDP is to retain personnel of experience and ability in
key positions by providing them with a proprietary interest in the Company.
The Company has reserved 142,830 shares of common stock to be issued under the
MRDP which may be either authorized but unissued shares, or reacquired shares
held by the Company in its treasury. The number of restricted shares to be
granted under the MRDP will be 99,980 shares to the executive officers and
42,850 shares to the non-employee directors.

The MRDP is effective on October 1, 1998.  Awards under the MDRP will be made
in the form of restricted shares of common stock that are subject to
restrictions on transfer of ownership. Compensation expense in the amount of
the fair value of the common stock at the date of the grant to the plan
participant will be recognized over a five year vesting period.

Repurchase of Common Stock

On September 15, 1998, the Company received regulatory approval to repurchase
up to 9% of the 3,570,570 shares issued during the Conversion and
Reorganization which is 321,368 shares.

Of the 321,368 shares authorized to be repurchased, up to 142,830 shares will
be reissued as awards to be granted to participants in the MRDP.  Any such
shares not awarded under the MRDP will be held in the Company's treasury.  The
remaining 178,538 shares to be repurchased will be held in the Company's
treasury pending the exercise of stock options to be granted under the 1998
Plan.  At

September 30, 1998, 40,000 common stock shares had been repurchased at an
average cost of $13.50 per share.

(11)  Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
      -----------------------------------------
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  SFAS No. 133
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts,
(collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities.  It
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities on the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters beginning with the fiscal
year 2001 and need not be applied retroactively to financial statements of
prior periods.  The statement may be adopted early, as of the beginning of any
quarter beginning with the third quarter of 1998.  The Company does not
anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 would have a material effect on
its financial position or results of operations.

Safe Harbor Clause.  This report contains certain "forward-looking
statements." The Company desires to take advantage of the "safe harbor"
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is
including this statement for the express purpose of availing itself of the
protection of such safe harbor with forward-looking statements.  These
forward-looking statement's, which are included in Management's Discussion and
Analysis, describe future plans or strategies and include the Company's
expectations of future financial results.  The words "believe," "expect,"
"anticipate," "estimate," "project," and similar expressions identify forward-
looking statements.  The Company's ability to predict results or the effect of
future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain.  Factors which could
affect actual results include interest rate trends, the whole economic climate
in the company's market area and the country as a whole, loan delinquency
rates, and changes in federal and state regulation.  These factors should be
considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements, and undue reliance
should not be placed on such statements.

General

Riverview Bancorp, Inc., a Washington corporation, was organized on June 23,
1997 for the purpose of becoming the holding company for Riverview Community
Bank (formerly Riverview Savings Bank, FSB) upon the Riverview Savings Bank's
reorganization as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company resulting from the
conversion of Riverview, M.H.C. from a federal mutual holding company to a
stock holding company ("Conversion and Reorganization").  The Conversion and
Reorganization was completed on September 30, 1997.  Riverview Savings Bank,
FSB changed its name to Riverview Community Bank ("Community Bank") effective
June 29, 1998.

The Community Bank is regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"),
its primary regulator, and by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC"), the insurer of its deposits.  The Community Bank's deposits are
insured by the FDIC up to applicable legal limits under the Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF").  The Community Bank has been a member of
the Federal Home Loan Bank System since 1937.

As a traditional, community-oriented, financial institution, the Community
Bank focuses on traditional financial services to residents of its primary
market area.  The Community Bank considers Clark, Cowlitz, Klickitat and
Skamania counties of Washington as its primary market area.  The primary
business of the Community Bank is attracting deposits from the general public
and using such funds to originate fixed-rate mortgage loans and adjustable
rate mortgage loans secured by one to four family residential real estate
located in its primary market area.  The Community Bank is also an active
originator of one to four family and multi-family construction loans to both
builders and homeowners.  The Community Bank is also growing the portfolio of
loans for land development and small business financing and consumer loans. 
Riverview Mortgage, a mortgage broker division of the Community Bank,
originates mortgage loans (including construction loans) for various mortgage
companies predominantly in the Portland and Seattle metropolitan areas, as
well as for the Community Bank.

Year 2000

The "Year 2000 problem" arose because many existing computer programs use only
the last two digits to refer to a year. Therefore, these computer programs do
not properly recognize a year that begins with "20" instead of the familiar
"19". Systems that calculate, compare or sort using the incorrect date may
cause erroneous results, ranging from system malfunctions to incorrect or
incomplete processing. If not remedied, potential risks include business
disruption or temporary shutdown and financial loss. The Company principally
utilizes third-party computer service providers and third-party software for
its information technology needs. As a result, the Year 2000 compliance of the
Company's information technology assets, such as computer hardware, software
and systems, is primarily dependent upon the Year 2000 compliance efforts and
results of its third-party vendors. The Year 2000 compliance of the Company's
non-information technology assets, which include automated teller machines
(ATMS), copiers, fax machines, elevators, microfilmers, and HVAC systems, is
also primarily dependent upon Year 2000 compliance efforts and results of
third-parties.

State of Readiness
- ------------------
The Company began developing a plan to address the Year 2000 issues in 1997,
and in 1998 appointed a Year 2000 Committee comprised of representatives from
all key areas of the Company, including Senior Management. The Year 2000
Committee has

                                       14
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
developed and is currently implementing a comprehensive project to make all
information technology assets and all non-information technology assets Year
2000 compliant. Testing of hardware has been completed and non- compliant
information technology hardware has been replaced or ordered. The committee
provides periodic reports to the Company's Board of Directors in order to
assist them in their Year 2000 readiness oversight role.

The Company's non-information technology assets have also been assessed for
Year 2000 compliance. Manufacturers, installers, and/or servicers of each have
been contacted for certification of Year 2000 readiness. Of the Company's
non-information technology assets, only ATM operating systems were determined
to be in need of replacement for six ATMs, and this was being carried out
within budget.

The Year 2000 Committee's plan to make all Company assets Year 2000 compliant
is comprised of the following phases:

       1. Awareness   Educational initiatives on Year 2000 issues
          and concerns. This phase is ongoing, especially as it
          relates to customers. 
    
       2. Assessment   Inventory of all technology assets and  
          identification of third-party vendors and service        
          providers. This phase has been completed. 

       3. Renovation   Review of vendor and service providers   
          responses to the Company's Year 2000 inquiries and     
          development of a follow-up plan and timeline. This   
          phase has been completed. 
   
       4. Validation   The Year 2000 Committee's readiness   
          initiative is currently in this phase. This phase   
          consists of testing all systems as well as testing   
          of third-party vendors and service providers for 
          year 2000 issues. Testing of mission-critical 
          automated systems will be substantially complete by 
          the close of 1998.  Testing of renovations and new 
          systems will continue throughout 1998 and 1999.

       5. Implementation   This phase has begun with the   
          replacement of all micro-computer hardware which was 
          determined to not be Year 2000 compliant. As  
          mentioned we are also replacing ATM operating 
          systems. The Company's Year 2000 plan provides for 
          Year 2000 readiness to be completed by mid-1999 
          consistent with OTS guidelines. As the Company 
          progresses through the validation phase, the Company

                                       15
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
          expects to determine necessary remedial actions and 
          subsequently provide for their implementation, with 
          respect to any third-party vendors or service 
          providers who are ultimately determined to not be 
          Year 2000 compliant.

Costs to Address the Year 2000 Issue
- ------------------------------------
The total cost of carrying out the Company's plan to address the Year 2000
issue is currently estimated to be approximately $200,000, including estimates
of personnel costs, and is comprised primarily of costs for equipment and
software that will be acquired and depreciated over its useful life in
accordance with Company policy. Any personnel and consulting costs have been
and will continue to be expensed as incurred. These currently contemplated
Year 2000 compliance costs are expected to be funded primarily through
operating cash flows and are not expected to have a material adverse effect 
on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. To
date, the costs incurred related to Year 2000, excluding estimates of
personnel costs, are approximately $70,000.

Risks Presented by the Year 2000 Issue
- --------------------------------------
Because the Company is substantially dependent upon the proper functioning of
its computer systems and the computer systems and services of third parties, a
failure of those computer systems and services to be Year 2000 compliant could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition
or results of operations. The Company relies heavily on third-party vendors
and service providers for its information technology needs. The Company's
primary third-party computer service provider is a computer service bureau
that provides data processing for virtually all of the Company's savings and
checking accounts, lending and loan servicing, general ledger, fixed assets
and accounts payable. Some of these functions operate in-house on network
micro-computers, but they are all integrated and interfaced with the
third-party service bureau system. The third-party's data processing services
are mission-critical services for the Company and a failure of this provider's
services to be Year 2000 compliant could cause substantial disruption of the
Company's business and could have a material adverse financial impact on the
Company. Testing of this third-party data processing service bureau is
scheduled for the fourth quarter of the calendar year 1998 and the first
quarter of the calendar year 1999.

If this third-party service provider or other third-party providers with which
the company has material relationships are not Year 2000 compliant, the
following problems could result: (i) in the case of vendors, important
services upon which the Company

                                       16
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
depends, such as telecommunications and electrical power, could be
interrupted, (ii) in the case of third-party service providers, the Company
could receive inaccurate or outdated information, which could impair the
Company's ability to perform critical data functions, such as the processing
of deposit accounts, loan servicing and internal accounting, and (iii) in the
case of governmental agencies, such as the Federal Home Loan Bank, and
correspondent banks, such agencies and financial institutions could fail to
provide funds to the company, which could materially impair the Company's
liquidity and affect the Company's ability to fund loans and deposit
withdrawals. In addition, whether or not the Company is Year 2000 compliant,
the Company may experience an outflow of deposits if customers are concerned
about the integrity of financial institutions' records regarding customer
accounts.

Contingency Plans
- -----------------
Where it is possible to do so, the Company has scheduled testing with
third-party vendors and service providers. Where it is not possible, the
Company will rely upon certifications of Year 2000 compliance from vendors and
service providers. Most vendors and service providers have targeted December,
1998 as their expected compliance completion date. Until that time, the
Company is unable to fully assess its risks from potential Year 2000
non-compliance and to fully develop its Year 2000 contingency plans. The
Company will supplement its existing business continuity plans to deal with
the special circumstances of Year 2000 problems.

There can be no assurance that the Company's Year 2000 plans will effectively
address the Year 2000 issue, that the Company's estimates of the timing and
costs of completing the plan will ultimately be accurate or that the impact of
any failure of the Company or its third-party vendors and service providers to
be Year 2000 compliant will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition or results of operations.

FINANCIAL CONDITON

At September 30, 1998, the Company had total assets of $304.8 million compared
with $273.2 million at March 31, 1998.  The $31.6 million or 11.6% increase in
assets reflects the $30.0 million purchase of mortgage-backed securities to be
held as available for sale. Cash, including interest-earning accounts,

                                       17
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
totaled $18.5 million at September 30, 1998 compared to $27.5 million at March
31, 1998. At September 30, 1998, the Company had $197.6 million in gross
loans, an increase of $13.7 million compared to $183.9 million at March 31,
1998. Loans Receivable (Note 7), provides a detailed analysis of the $13.7
million increase in gross loans. Consumer, commercial, and land loans carry
higher interest rates and a higher degree of risk compared to one-to-four
family mortgage loans. Deposits totaled $190.6 million at September 30, 1998,
compared to $179.8 million at March 31, 1998.  FHLB advances totaled $49.6
million at September 30, 1998 compared to $29.6 million at March 31, 1998. The
$20.0 million increase consists of a $10.0 million pay down and the borrowing
of $30.0 million which was used to purchase the $30.0 million in mortgage-
backed securities.  This arbitrage strategy was entered into to increase net
interest income.

Capital Resources

Total shareholders' equity increased $1.0 million, or 1.6%, from $61.1 million
at March 31, 1998 to $62.1 million for the six months ended September 30,
1998. This increase was the net result of $2.4 million in earnings for the
year to date, dividends of $0.7 million, purchase of 40,000 treasury shares
for $0.5 million and $0.3 million change in net unrealized loss on securities
available for sale, net of tax.  The Community Bank will pay a $2.0 million
dividend to Riverview Bancorp, Inc. in the quarter ended December 31, 1998.

The Community Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional
discretionary actions by regulators, that if undertaken could have a direct
material effect on the Community Bank's financial statements. Under capital
adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,
the Community Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of the Community Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain
off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices.
The Community Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to
qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and
other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Community Bank to maintain amounts and ratios of tangible and core
capital to adjusted total assets and of total risk-based capital to
risk-weighted assets of 1.5%, 3.0%, and 8.0%, respectively. As of September
30, 1998, the Community Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which
it is subject.

                                       18
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
As of March 31, 1998, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized
the Community Bank as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for
prompt corrective action. To be categorized as "well capitalized" the
Community Bank must maintain minimum core and total risk-based capital ratios
of 5.0%, and 10.0%, respectively. At September 30, 1998, the Community Bank's
tangible, core and risk-based total capital ratios amounted to 15.9%, 15.9%,
and 31.0%, respectively. There are no conditions or events since that
notification that management believes have changed the Community Bank's
category.

The Community Bank's actual and required minimum capital amounts and ratios
are presented in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Bank Liquidity

OTS regulations require the Community Bank to maintain an average daily
balance of liquid assets as a percentage of average daily net withdrawable
deposit accounts plus short-term borrowings of at least 4%. The Community
Bank's regulatory liquidity ratio was 45.3% at September 30, 1998 compared to
43.6% at March 31, 1998. The Community Bank anticipates that it will have
sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments and other cash
needs.  At September 30, 1998, the Community Bank had outstanding commitments
to originate $7.7 million mortgage loans, none of which were committed to be
sold in the secondary market.

Cash, including interest-earning overnight investments, was $18.5 million at
September 30, 1998 compared to $27.5 million at March 31, 1998. Investment
securities and mortgage-backed securities available for sale at September 30,
1998 were $15.8 million and $61.2 million, respectively, compared to $10.0
million and $32.7 million, respectively, at March 31, 1998.

Asset Quality

Allowance for loan losses was $1.1 million at September 30, 1998, compared to
$984,000 at March 31, 1998. Management deemed the allowance for loan losses at
September 30, 1998 to be adequate at that date. No assurances, however, can be
given that future additions to the allowance for loan losses will not be
necessary. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level sufficient
to provide for estimated loan losses based on evaluating known and inherent
risks in the loan portfolio.  Pertinent factors considered include size and
composition of the portfolio, actual loss experience, current and anticipated
economic conditions, and

                                       20

detailed analysis of individual loans. The appropriate allowance level is
estimated based upon factors and trends identified by management at the time
the consolidated financial statements are prepared.

Nonperforming assets were $1.5 million or 0.48% of total assets at September
30, 1998 compared with $517,000 or 0.19% of total assets at March 31, 1998. 
The increase in nonaccrual residential loans presented in the following table
is the result of an increase in nonaccrual one to four family permanent and
construction loans.  The following table sets forth information with respect
to the Community Bank's nonperforming assets at the dates indicated:

        Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended
                     September 30, 1998 and 1997

The Company's net income depends primarily on its net interest income, which
is the difference between interest earned on its loans and investments and the
interest paid on interest-bearing

                                       21

<PAGE>
liabilities. Net interest income is determined by (a) the difference between
the yield earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing
liabilities (interest rate spread) and (b) the relative amounts of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  The Company's
interest rate spread is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive
factors that influence rates, loan demand and deposit flows.  Net interest
margin is calculated by dividing net interest income by the average
interest-earning assets.  Net interest income and net interest margin are
affected by changes in interest rates, volume and the mix of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the level of non-performing
assets.  The Company's net income is also affected by the generation of
non-interest income, which primarily consists of fees and service charges,
loan servicing income, gains on sale of securities, gains from sale of loans
and other income.  In addition, net income is affected by the level of
operating expenses and establishment of a provision for loan losses.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1998 was $1.2 million,
$0.20 per basic share ($0.20 per diluted share).  This compares to net income
of $0.8 million, $0.13 per basic share ($0.12 per diluted share) for the same
period in fiscal 1998. The earnings per basic share increase of 54% to $0.20
for the three months ending September 30, 1998 from $0.13 for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 reflected several factors. Net interest income
increased $0.8 million or 33% for the three months ended September 30, 1998
compared to the same period in fiscal 1998 due to an 18% increase in
interest-earning assets. Non-interest income increased $108,000 or 18%
reflecting increases in fees and service charges as well as gains on sales of
loans in fiscal 1999 as compared to fiscal 1998.

Average interest-earning assets increased to $265.7 million for the three
months ending September 30, 1998 from $225.0 million for the three months
ending September 30, 1997. On September 30, 1997, the Company completed the
Conversion and Reorganization.  In the Conversion and Reorganization,
3,570,270 shares previously held by Riverview, M.H.C. were retired and
simultaneously 3,570,750 shares of common stock of the Company were sold at a
subscription price of $10.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of
approximately $31.8 million.

Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 1998 was $5.6
million, an increase of $0.7 million or 15% over $4.9 million for the same
period in 1997. Yield on interest-earning assets for the three month 1998
period was 8.41% compared to 8.65% for the three month 1997 period.  The lower
1998 yield on interest earning assets resulted primarily from the lower yield
received on investments in mortgage-backed and investment

                                       22

<PAGE>
securities and overnight funds. The higher interest income resulted from
growth in loans, mortgage-backed securities and overnight investments.

Interest expense was $2.3 million and $2.4 million for the quarters ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The cost of interest-bearing
liabilities for the three month 1998 period was 4.67% compared to 4.93% for
the three month 1997 period.

Net interest income increased $0.8 million, or 33%, to $3.2 million for the
three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $2.4 million for the three
months ended September 30, 1997. The interest rate spread increased from 3.73%
for the three month 1997 period to 3.74% for the three month 1998 period.  The
net interest margin improved to 4.91% during the third quarter ended September
30, 1998 from 4.34% for the third quarter ended September 30, 1997. The
improved margin reflects the $41.0 million increase in average interest-
earning assets to $265.7 million during the third quarter ended September 30,
1998 from $225.0 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 1997. The
$40.7 million increase in average interest-earning assets was partially offset
by the $2.7 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities to $199.5
million during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 from $196.8 million for
the quarter ended September 30, 1997.

The provision for loan losses was $60,000 and there were $28,000 in net
charge-offs during the three months ended September 30, 1998 compared to a
$45,000 provision and $2,000 in net charge-offs during the three months ended
September 30, 1997. During the quarter ended June 30, 1998 the loan loss
provision was increased in response to loan growth and change in loan mix. The
loan loss provision was deemed necessary based upon management's analysis of
historical and anticipated loss rates, current loan growth, and other factors
considered.

Non-interest income increased $108,000, or 18%, to $699,000 for the three
month ended September 30, 1998 from $591,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1997. The $108,000 increase for the current quarter is primarily
due to a $40,000 increase in deposit service charges resulting from an
increased number of deposit accounts, $88,000 increase in loan origination
fees on loans brokered through Riverview Mortgage Brokerage and gains on sale
of loans.
 
Non-interest expense increased $238,000, or 13%, from $1.8 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 1997 to $2.1 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 1998. The 1998 quarter

                                       23
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
reflects the addition of four full-time equivalent employees over the 1997
quarter.  This resulted from adding three loan staff reflecting expansion in
the mortgage broker division and consumer loans and one branch staff. Salaries
and employee benefits increased $107,000 to $1.2 million for the quarter ended
September 30, 1998.
 
Provision for federal income taxes for the second quarter fiscal 1998 was
$655,000, resulting in an effective tax rate of 36%, compared to $408,000 and
35% for the like quarter of a year ago.  The 1% increase in the effective tax
rate for three months ended September 30, 1998 is attributable to the impact
of the ESOP market value adjustment.
   
          Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended
                     September 30, 1998 and 1997

Net income for the six months ended September 30, 1998 was $2.4 million, $0.42
per basic share ($0.41 per diluted share).  This compares to net income of
$1.5 million, $0.25 per basic share ($0.24 per diluted share) for the same
period in fiscal 1998. The earnings per basic share increase of 68% to $0.42
for the six months ended September 30, 1998 from $0.25 for the six months
ended September 30, 1997 reflected several factors. Net interest income
increased $1.7 million or 36% for the six months ended September 30, 1998
compared to the same period in fiscal 1998 due to a 20% increase in
interest-earning assets. Non-interest income increased $321,000 or 30%
reflecting increases in fees and service charges as well as gains on sales of
loans in fiscal 1999 as compared to fiscal 1998.

Average interest-earning assets increased to $263.4 million for the six months
ending September 30, 1998 from $218.7 million for the six months ending
September 30, 1997. On September 30, 1997 the Company completed the Conversion
and Reorganization which provided net proceeds of approximately $31.8 million
from the stock offering.

Interest income for the six months ended September 30, 1998 was $11.2 million,
an increase of $1.7 million or 18% over $9.5 million for the same period in
1997. Yield on interest-earning assets for the six month 1998 period was 8.51%
compared to 8.68% for the six month 1997 period.  The lower 1998 yield on
interest earning assets resulted primarily from the lower yield received on
investments in mortgage-backed and investment securities and overnight funds.
The higher interest income resulted from growth in loans, mortgage-backed
securities and overnight investments.

Interest expense was $4.7 million for each of the six months ended September
30, 1998 and 1997. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the six month
1998 period was 4.68% compared to 4.82% for the six month 1997 period.

Net interest income increased $1.7 million, or 36%, to $6.5 million for the
six months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $4.8 million for the six
months ended September 30, 1997. The interest rate spread decreased from 3.86%
for the six month 1997 period to 3.83% for the six month 1998 period.  The net
interest margin improved to 4.97% during the six month period ended September
30, 1998 from 4.41% for the six month period ended September 30, 1997. The
improved margin reflects the $44.7 million increase in average interest-
earning assets to $263.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 1998
from $218.7 million for the six month period ended September 30, 1997. The
$44.7 million increase in average interest-earning assets was partially offset
by the $5.7 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities to $199.6
million during the six months ended September 30, 1998 from $193.9 million for
the six months ended September 30, 1997.

The provision for loan losses was $120,000 and there were $30,000 in net
charge-offs during the six months ended September 30, 1998 compared to a
$90,000 provision and $11,000 in net charge-offs during the six months ended
September 30, 1997. During the quarter ended June 30, 1998 the loan loss
provision was increased in response to loan growth and change in loan mix. The
loan loss provision was deemed necessary based upon management's analysis of
historical and anticipated loss rates, current loan growth, and other factors
considered.

Non-interest income increased $321,000, or 30%, to $1.4 million for the six
months ended September 30, 1998 from $1.1 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1997. The $321,000 increase for the current six months is
primarily due to a $78,000 increase in deposit service charges resulting from
an increased number of deposit accounts, $184,000 increase in loan origination
fees on loans brokered through Riverview Mortgage Brokerage and gains on sale
of loans and securities.
 
Non-interest expense increased $493,000, or 14%, from $3.5 million for the six
months ended September 30, 1997 to $4.0 for the six months ended September 30,
1998. The 1998 six months reflects the addition of four full-time equivalent
employees over the six months ended September 30, 1997.  This resulted from
adding three loan staff reflecting expansion in the mortgage broker division
and consumer loans and one branch staff. Salaries and employee benefits
increased $312,000 to $2.3 million for the six months ended September 30,
1998.

Provision for federal income taxes for the six months ended September 30, 1998
was $1.4 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 37%, compared to $0.8

effective tax rate for six months ended September 30, 1998 is attributable to
the impact of the ESOP market value adjustment.
