NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
Cavalry Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), was organized on November 5,
1997 under Tennessee law at the direction of Cavalry Banking (the
"Bank") to acquire all of the capital stock that the Bank would issue
upon its conversion from the mutual to stock form of ownership. The
conversion was completed on March 16, 1998 through the sale and
issuance of 7,538,250 shares of common stock by the Company at a price
of $10.00 per share. Information set forth in this report relating to
periods prior to the Conversion, including consolidated financial
statements and related data, relates to Cavalry Banking and its
subsidiaries.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have
been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. However, such information reflects all
adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of
results for the interim periods.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June
30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the year ending December 31, 1998. The consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1997.
2. Earnings Per Share
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per
Share, established new standards for computing and presenting earnings
per share. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods
ending after December 15, 1997. This standard had no impact on the
computation of the Company's earnings per share upon adoption.
Earnings per share has been computed for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1998 based upon weighted average common shares
outstanding of 6,947,754 and 6,941,238, respectively. For the purpose
of computing weighted average shares outstanding for the six months
ended June 30, 1998, shares issued in the Conversion on March 16, 1998
were assumed to have been outstanding since January 1, 1998.
Earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 is
not presented as there was no common stock issued or outstanding.

6. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130 "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," establishes standards of disclosure and
financial statement display for reporting total comprehensive income
and the individual components thereof. Comprehensive income is defined
as the change in equity(net assets) of a business enterprise during a
period from transactions and other events and circumstances from
nonowner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period
except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions
to owners. The only component of comprehensive income for Cavalry
Bancorp is unrealized holding gains/(losses) on available-for-sale
securities. Cavalry Bancorp adopted this standard beginning with the
first quarter of 1998.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997
Total assets were $339.8 million at June 30, 1998 and $282.1 million
at December 31, 1997, an increase of $57.7 million or 20.5%. This
increase resulted primarily from the proceeds of the initial public
offering of stock which was completed on March 16, 1998. As a result
of this offering, the Company realized an increase in cash of
approximately $67.8 million. These funds were invested in interest
bearing deposits and short-term investments. Cash and cash equivalents
increased $4.3 million while total investments increased $39.2 million.
Mortgage-backed securities decreased $207,000 as a result of
repayments. Loans held for sale increased $1.9 million. The
variances resulted primarily from timing differences in the funding of
loans. Loans receivable, net increased from $213.0 million at December
31, 1997 to $224.8 million at June 30, 1998. Consumer, commercial, and
commercial real estate increased $22.0 million as a result of
additional loan officers, general market conditions and more aggressive
pricing. These gains were offset by declines in construction, land,
multifamily, and one-to-four family mortgage loans. The declines in
one-to-four family mortgage loans were primarily a result of refinancing
activity. Although construction and land development loans net of loans
in process decreased, the gross amount of these loans have increased $9.2
million. This increase was a result of aggressive solicitation and
competitive pricing of these products.
Deposit accounts decreased $13.7 million from December 31, 1997 to June
30, 1998. Certificates of deposit decreased $12.8 million primarily as
a result of withdrawals to fund stock purchases. The Bank's savings
account balances declined $1.6 million. Money market accounts also
declined $1.7 million for the period. These declines were partially
offset by an increase of $2.4 million in transactional accounts.
Stockholders' equity increased by $70.3 million from December 31, 1997
to June 30, 1998, as a result net proceeds received in the conversion
of $67.8 million and net income of $2.9 million for the six month
period ending June 30, 1998,reduced by dividends of $377,000 and
unrealized losses on available for sale securities of $13,000.
Nonperforming assets increased from $150,000 at December 31, 1997 to
$160,000 at June 30, 1998.
10
<PAGE>
Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 1998
and June 30, 1997.
Net Income. Net income increased to $1.5 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 from $891,000 for the three months ended June 30,
1997 primarily as a result of increased investment and deposit income
offset partially by an increased provision for income taxes due to
increased income before taxes. The increase in investment and deposit
income is principally the result of additional funds available for
investment in the three month period ended June 30, 1998 from the
conversion.
Net Interest Income. Total interest income increased 22.0% to $6.6
million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $5.4 million for
the same period in 1997. Interest on loans increased from $5.0 million
for the period ended June 30,1997 to $5.3 million for the same period
in 1998. This was a result of average loans outstanding increasing from
$212.3 million in 1997 to $228.3 million for the same period in 1998.
The average yield decreased from 9.5% for the period ended June
30, 1997 compared to 9.4% for the same period in 1998. This decrease
was a result of declining rates and market competition.
Income on all other investments consisting of mortgage backed
securities, investments, FHLB stock, bank deposits and federal funds
increased from $332,000 for the period ended June 30, 1997 to $1.3
million for 1998. Average investments increased from $23.1 million for
the three months in 1997 to $91.2 million for the same period in 1998
as a result of the investment of stock subscription funds. The average
yield declined from 5.7% for the period ended June 30, 1997 to 5.6% as
a result of the conversion funds being mostly invested in overnight and
other short-term investments.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased from $2.2 million for
the period ended June 30, 1997 to $2.3 million for the same period in
1998. Average deposits increased from $201.5 million for the period in
1997 to $209.3 million for 1998. The average cost of deposits
decreased from 4.51% in 1997 to 4.40% in 1998. This decrease was
primarily a result of the average balance in NOW accounts, a lower
cost deposit, increasing from $27.7 million in 1997 to $32.6 million in
1998 with the cost declining from 1.72% in 1997 to 1.44% in 1998.
The decrease in average costs was a result of the Bank lowering the
rate on these accounts.
Provision for Loan Loses. Provision for loan losses are charges to
earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level
considered by management as adequate to provide for estimated loan
losses based on management's evaluation of the collectibility of the
loan portfolio, including the nature of the portfolio, credit
concentrations, trends in historical loss experience, specific impaired
loans and economic conditions. Management also considers the level of
problem assets giving greater weight to the level of classified assets
than to the level of nonperforming assets because classified assets
include not only nonperforming assets but also performing assets that
otherwise exhibit, in management's judgement, potential credit
weaknesses.
11
<PAGE>
The provision for loan losses was $81,000 for the period ending June
30, 1998 compared to $75,000 for the same period in 1997. Classified
assets increased from $1.3 million at December 31, 1997 to $1.5 million
at June 30, 1998. Management expects classified assets to increase
moderately, although no assurances can be given that this will in fact
occur. Management's expectation is based upon its anticipation of
continued loan growth, particularly in the areas of construction,
commercial real estate, commercial and consumer lending. Management
deemed the allowance for loan losses adequate at June 30, 1998.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased to $1.2 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1998 from $797,000 for the same period
in 1997. Net gain on sale of loans increased from $206,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1997 to $471,000 for the same period in
1998. This increase was a result of increased volume, increased
pricing spreads, and overall more favorable market conditions in 1998
than in 1997. Deposit servicing fees increased from $291,000 in 1997
to $382,000 as a result of increased volume in transactional accounts
and an increased pricing structure. Trust fees also increased from
$135,000 in 1997 to $171,000 in 1998 because of more trust assets under
management and an increase in fees charged. These gains were offset by
a decline in loan servicing income from $134,000 in 1997 to $95,000 in
1998 largely as a result of increased amortization of originated
servicing rights.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense was $3.0 million for the
period ending June 30, 1998 compared to $2.4 million in 1997.
Compensation and other employee benefits increased from $1.3 million at
June 30, 1997 to $1.7 million at June 1998 primarily as a result of
increases in commission expenses,compensation and other employee
benefits. These increases were a result of increased staffing to
service the increased volumes in deposits and lending and normal annual
salary increases. The increases in other categories of operating
expenses generally are attributable to the growth of the Company.
The Company anticipates that other operating expenses will continue
to increase in subsequent periods as a result of increased cost
associated with operating a public company.
Income taxes. The provision for income taxes was $906,000 for the
period ended June 30, 1998 compared to $561,000 for the same period in
1997. This was a result of higher income before income taxes for the
period ended June 30, 1998.

<PAGE>
Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 and
June 30,1997.
Net Income. Net income increased to $2.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 from $1.8 million for the six months ended June
30, 1997 primarily as a result of increased investment and deposit income
offset partially by an increased provision for income taxes due to
increased income before taxes. The increase in investment and deposit
income is principally the result of additional funds available for
investment in the six month period ended June 30, 1998 from the
conversion.
Net Interest Income. Total interest income increased 23.8% to $13.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $10.5 million for the
same period in 1997. Interest on loans increased from $9.8 million for
the period ended June 30, 1997 to $10.6 million for the same period in
1998. This was a result of average loans outstanding increasing from
$209.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $226.2 for the
same period in 1998. The yields between the two periods were comparable
at 9.38% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 9.39% for the same
period in 1998. Income on all other investments consisting of mortgage
backed securities, investments, FHLB stock, bank deposits and federal
funds sold increased from $682,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997
to $2.4 million for the same period in 1998. Average investments
increased from $23.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to
$89.2 million for the same period in 1998 as a result of the investment
of the conversion. The average yield declined from 5.8% for the six
months ended June 30,1997 to 5.4% for the same period in 1998 as a
result of conversion funds being mostly invested in overnight and other
short-term investments.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased from $4.4 million for the
six month period ended June 30, 1997 to $4.9 million for the six month
period ended June 30, 1998. Average deposits increased from $199.4
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $235.7 million for the
same period in 1998. The average cost of funds declined from 4.4% for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 to 4.2% for the same period in 1998.
This increase in average deposits was primarily a result of the stock
subscription process. Passbook savings increased from $15.4 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to $30.9 million for the same
period in 1998. The average cost of passbook deposits declined from 2.0%
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to 1.9% for the same period in 1998
Money market accounts also increased from $31.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 to $47.4 million for the same period in 1998. The
average cost of the money market accounts for both was 4.2%.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $135,000
for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 compared to $150,000 for the
same period in 1997. See "Comparison of Operating Results for the Three
Months Ended June 30, 1998 and June 30,1997 - Provision for Losses"

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased to $2.4 million for
the six months ended June 30 ,1998 compared to $1.5 million for the same
period in 1997. Gain on sale of loans increased from $341,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 to $1.0 million for the same period in
1998 as a result of increased volume, increased pricing spreads, and
overall more favorable market conditions in 1998 than in 1997. Deposit
servicing fees increased from $559,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1997 to $714,000 for the same period in 1998 as a result of increased
volume in transactional accounts and an increased pricing structure.
Trust fees also increased from $272,000 for the six months end June 30,
1997 to $334,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as a result of
increases in trust assets under management and an increase in fees
charged. These gains were offset by a decline in loan servicing income
from $273,000 for the six month period ended June 30 ,1997 to $202,000
for the same period in 1998 largely as a result of increased
amortization of originated servicing rights.
Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense was $5.8 million for the six
month period ended June 30, 1998 compared to $4.6 million for the same
period in 1997. Compensation, payroll taxes and fringe benefits
increased from $2.6 million for the six month period ended June 30, 1997
to $3.3 million for the same period in 1998. This increase was
primarily a result of increased staffing to service the increased
volumes in deposits and lending and normal annual salary increases. The
increases in other categories of operating expenses generally are
attributable to the growth of the Company. The Company anticipates that
operating expenses will continue to increase in subsequent periods as
a result of increased costs associated with operating a public company.
Income taxes. The provision for income taxes was $1.7 million for the
six month period ended June 30 ,1998 compared to $1.1 million for the
same period in 1997. This increase was a result of increased income
before taxes for the six months ended June 30, 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, proceeds
from principal and interest payments from and the sale of loans,
maturing securities and FHLB of Cincinnati advances. While maturities
and scheduled amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds,
deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are influenced greatly by
general interest rates, other economic conditions and competition.
Regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), the Bank's
primary regulator, require the Bank to maintain an adequate level of
liquidity to ensure the availability of sufficient funds to fund loan
originations, deposit withdrawals and to satisfy other financial
commitments. Currently, the OTS regulatory liquidity for the Bank is
the maintenance of an average daily balance of liquid assets (cash and
eligible investments) equal to at least 4% of the daily balance of net
withdrawal deposits and short-term borrowings. This liquidity
requirement is subject to periodic change. The Company and the Bank
generally maintain sufficient cash and short-term investments to meet
short-term liquidity needs. At June 30, 1998, cash and cash
equivalents totaled $42.0 million or 12.4% of total assets, and
investments available for sale totaled $45.3 million. At June 30,
1998, the Bank also maintained, but did not draw upon, a line of credit
with the FHLB of Cincinnati in the amount of $15.0 million.
As of June 30, 1998, the Bank's regulatory capital was in excess of
all applicable regulatory requirements. At June 30, 1998, under
regulations of the OTS, the Bank's tangible, core and risk-based
capital ratios were 22.9%, 22.9% and 25.0%, respectively, compared to
requirements of 1.5%, 3.0% and 8.0%, respectively.
At June 30, 1998, the Bank had loan commitments (excluding undisbursed
portions of construction loans) of approximately $14.4 million. In
addition, at June 30, 1998, the unused portion of lines of credit
extended by the Bank was approximately $6.5 million for consumer lines
of credit and $22.8 million for commercial lines of credit. Standby
letters of credit and financial guarantees are conditional commitments
issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a
third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public
and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond
financing, and similar transactions. Most guarantees are for a term of
one to two years. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of
credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan
facilities to customers. At June 30, 1998, the Bank had $7.1 million
of letters of credit outstanding.
