            NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all
     adjustments and reclassifications which, in the opinion of management,  are
     necessary  for a  fair  presentation  of  the  results  of  operations  and
     financial  condition for the interim  period.  The  unaudited  consolidated
     financial  statements  include the  accounts of Community  West  Bancshares
     ("the  Company")  and its wholly owned  subsidiaries  Goleta  National Bank
     ("GNB")  and  Palomar  Community  Bank  ("Palomar").  All  adjustments  and
     reclassifications  are of a normal and  recurring  nature.  Results for the
     period ending September 30, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of results
     which may be  expected  for any other  interim  period or for the year as a
     whole.  Certain  reclassifications  have  been  made in the 1999  financial
     information to conform to the presentation used in 2000.

     These unaudited consolidated  financials should be read in conjunction with
     the consolidated  financial  statements and notes thereto of Community West
     Bancshares included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

     Investment  Securities - The Company  classifies as held to maturity  those
     debt securities it has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity.
     Securities  held to maturity  are  accounted  for at cost and  adjusted for
     amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.  Securities to be held
     for indefinite  periods of time, but not necessarily to be held to maturity
     or on a long term basis are classified as available for sale and carried at
     fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component
     of accumulated  other  comprehensive  income,  net of any applicable income
     taxes.  Realized  gains or losses on the sale of  securities  available for
     sale, if any, are determined on a specific identification basis.

     Investment  Securities,  Held for Trading - The Company  originates certain
     loans for the  purpose of selling  either a portion or all of the loan into
     the secondary  market.  The  guaranteed  portion of SBA loans are typically
     sold  into  the  secondary  market  servicing  retained.  Second  mortgages
     ("HLTV")  loans are  typically  sold into the  secondary  market  servicing
     released. On some of these sales, the Company retains interest only ("I/O")
     strips,  which  represent the present value of the right to the excess cash
     flows  generated  by the  serviced  loans  and is based  on the  difference
     between (a) interest at the stated rate paid by  borrowers  and (b) the sum
     of (i) pass-through  interest paid to third-party  investors,  (ii) trustee
     fees,  (iii) FHA insurance fees (if applicable),  (iv)  third-party  credit
     enhancement  fees (if applicable),  and (v) stipulated  servicing fees. The
     Company  determines the present value of this  anticipated cash flow stream
     at  the  time  each  loan  sale  transaction  closes,  utilizing  valuation
     assumptions  appropriate  for each particular  transaction.  Loan sales are
     discussed in detail in Note 3.


                                        5
<PAGE>
     The I/O Strips are subject to significant  prepayment risk, and accordingly
     have an undetermined  maturity date; and therefore  cannot be classified as
     held to  maturity.  The  Company  has chosen to  classify  these  assets as
     trading securities.  Based on this classification,  the Company is required
     to mark these securities to fair value with the  accompanying  increases or
     decreases in fair value being recorded as earnings or losses in the current
     period.  The determination of fair value is based on the same basis as when
     valued at transaction close.

     Loans Held for Sale - Loans that are  originated  and are intended for sale
     in the secondary market,  are carried at the lower of cost or fair value on
     an  aggregate   basis.   Funding  for  SBA   programs   depends  on  annual
     appropriations  by the U.S.  Congress,  and accordingly,  the sale of loans
     under these programs is dependent on the continuation of such programs.


3.   Loan Sales

     HLTV Loan Sales
     ----------------
     As of December  31,  1999,  the Company had $152 million in HLTV loans held
     for sale.  As of September  30,  2000,  the Company had $20 million in HLTV
     loans held for sale. The Company sells these loans in the secondary  market
     on a servicing released basis.

     SBA  Loan  Sales
     ----------------
     The Company sells the guaranteed  portion of Small Business  Administration
     ("SBA")  loans into the secondary  market in exchange for a combination  of
     cash premium,  servicing  assets,  and I/O strips.  The Company retains the
     servicing  rights.  The  present  value of the  interest  only  strips  and
     servicing  assets was calculated  assuming a 12 to 13% discount rate and an
     8% CPR.

     As of December 31, 1999,  the Company had  approximately  $7 million in SBA
     loans  held  for  sale.  As  of  September   30,  2000,   the  Company  had
     approximately $9 million in SBA loans held for sale.

     The Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.04 a share for shareholders
     of record on January 4, 2000, payable January 20, 2000. No other subsequent
     dividend payments have been declared.

6.   The  following  table denotes the  financial  performance  of the Company's
     operational  segments  for  its  periods  ending  September  30,  2000  and
     September 30, 1999 in  compliance  with  Statement of Financial  Accounting
     Standards No. 131.

     The Company's management,  while managing the overall company,  also, looks
     at individual  areas  considered  "significant"  to revenue and net income.
     These significant areas, or segments,  are: SBA Lending,  Consumer Finance,
     Mortgage  Division,  Goleta  National Bank Branch  Operations,  and Palomar
     Community Bank. For this discussion, the remaining divisions are considered
     immaterial and are consolidated  into "Other." The Other segment  primarily
     includes the administration  areas,  human resources,  and data processing.
     The accounting  policies of the  individual  segments are the same as those
     described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

     The SBA  Lending,  Consumer  Finance,  and Mortgage  Divisions  from Goleta
     National Bank are considered  individual  segments because of the different
     loan products involved and the significance of the associated revenue.  The
     Goleta National Bank Branch  operations,  includes  deposits and commercial
     lending.  Management analyzes Palomar separately from Goleta National Bank,
     as they are two different subsidiaries under Community West Bancshares.

     All of the Company's  assets and  operations  are located within the United
     States. The assets shown for each segment are estimates.

     The  following  table sets forth  various  revenue and  expense  items that
     management relies on in decision making.

7.   On March 30,  2000,  a majority  owned  subsidiary,  ePacific.com  redeemed
     1,800,000  of the  Company's  2,100,000  shares  and repaid a loan from the
     Company with a balance of $3,725,000 for $4,500,000 in cash. As a result of
     this, the Company reversed previously  consolidated losses and now reflects
     this  investment on the balance sheet under the equity method.  The Company
     continues to hold a 10% interest in ePacific.com.

8.   Subsequent  to the issuance of the Company's  1999 third quarter 10-Q,  the
     Company's  management  determined  that  (1)  the  acquisition  of  Palomar
     Community  Bank in December 1998 which was  previously  accounted for under
     the pooling-of-interests  method of accounting,  should have been accounted
     for under the purchase  method of  accounting,  (2) the  securitization  of
     loans completed in December 1998,  which was previously  accounted for as a
     sale should have been accounted for as a secured borrowing with a pledge of
     collateral, (3) as a result of loan sales to a collateralized borrowing, as
     mentioned in (1) and (2), certain  costs  related to second  mortgage loans
     which  were  previously capitalized, should have been charged to expense as
     incurred,  (4) as a result of the reclass of loan sales to a collateralized
     borrowing,  certain loan fees which were previously recognized, should have
     been deferred and amortized,  and (5) as a result of (1)  through (4),  the
     calculation  of regulatory  capital  amounts  and  ratios  as of  September
     30,  1999  was incorrect.  In  addition, management also identified certain
     other insignificant  errors in the September  30,  1999 10-Q.  As a result,
     the September 30, 1999 financial statements have been restated from amounts
     previously reported to properly account for these transactions.

9.   On March 23, 2000,  Goleta  National  Bank  entered  into a formal  written
     agreement  with the  Comptroller  of the  Currency of the United  States of
     America.  Under the terms of the  Agreement,  by September  30,  2000,  and
     thereafter,  GNB is, among other things, required to maintain total capital
     at least equal to 12% of risk-weighted  assets, and Tier 1 capital at least
     equal to 7% of adjusted  total  assets.  GNB is also required to reduce the
     concentration  of second mortgage loans to 100% of capital by September 30,
     2000. As of September 30, 2000, GNB has met or exceeded these  requirements
     and  management  believes  it  is in  compliance  with  the  terms  of  the
     agreement.

10.  On September  20, 2000,  the Company  signed a letter of intent to sell its
     wholly owned  subsidiary  Palomar  Community Bank for a combination of debt
     and cash.  The purchase  price is  estimated to be between  $10.5 and $11.0
     million.  The  transaction  is  subject  to  the  signing  of a  definitive
     agreement and is expected to close in the first half of 2001.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Management's  discussion and analysis is written to provide greater insight into
the  consolidated results of operations and the financial condition of Community
West  Bancshares,  and  subsidiaries  (the  "Company").

Statements  concerning  expectations  for  growth  and market forecasts, and any
other  guidance  on  future periods, constitute forward-looking statements which
are  subject  to  a  number  of risks and uncertainties which might cause actual
results  to  differ materially from stated expectations.  These factors include,
but  are  not  limited to, the approval of regulatory agencies and shareholders,
the  effect  of  interest  rate  changes,  the  expansion of the Company and its
subsidiaries,  changes  in  SBA  policy or funding, competition in the financial
services  market  for  both deposits and loans, and general economic conditions.

The  book  value per share increased from $5.56 at December 31, 1999 to $6.12 at
September  30,  2000.

Average  assets  for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, were $443,708,000
compared  to  $403,031,000 for the same period in 1999; average equity increased
to  $31,555,000  for  the nine months ended September 30, 2000, from $25,056,000
for  the  same  period  in  1999.

NET  INTEREST  INCOME/NET  INTEREST  MARGIN
One  component  of  the  Company's earnings is net interest income, which is the
difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the
interest  paid  for  deposits and borrowed funds. The net interest margin is net
interest  income  expressed  as  a  percentage  of  average  earning  assets.

The  annualized net interest margin was 5.9% for the nine months ended September
30,  2000  compared  to  an  annualized net interest margin of 5.6% for the year
ended  December  31,  1999.  Earning  assets  averaged $415,646,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000. This represented an increase of $53,970,000, or
14.9%  from the average earning assets of $361,676,000 for the nine months ended
September  30,  1999.

CREDIT  LOSS  EXPERIENCE
As a natural corollary to the Company's lending activities, some loan losses are
experienced.  The  risk  of loss varies with the type of loan being made and the
creditworthiness  of  the  borrower  over  the  term  of the loan. The degree of
perceived  risk  is  taken  into  account  in establishing the structure of, and
interest  rates and security for, specific loans and for various types of loans.
The  Company  attempts  to  minimize its credit risk exposure by use of thorough
loan  application  and  approval  procedures.

The  Company  maintains  a  program  of systematic review of its existing loans.
Loans  are  graded  for  their overall quality. Those loans, which the Company's
management determines require further monitoring and supervision, are segregated
and  reviewed  on  a periodic basis. Significant problem loans are reviewed on a
monthly  basis  by  the  Company's  Loan  Committee.

The  Company  charges off that portion of any loan which management considers to
represent  a  loss.  A loan is generally considered by management to represent a
loss  in  whole  or  in  part  when  an  exposure beyond any collateral value is
apparent, servicing of the unsecured portion has been discontinued or collection
is  not  anticipated  based  on  the  borrower's financial condition and general
economic conditions in the borrower's industry. The principal amount of any loan
which  is  declared  a  loss is charged against the Company's allowance for loan
losses.

The  Company's  allowance for loan losses is designed to provide for loan losses
inherent within the loan portfolio, which have not been specifically identified.
The  allowance  for  loan  losses  is  established  through charges to operating
expenses  in  the  form  of  provisions  for  loan losses. Actual loan losses or
recoveries  are  charged or credited, directly to the allowance for loan losses.


                                       13
<PAGE>
The  amount  of the allowance is determined by management of the Company.  Among
the  factors  considered  in  determining  the allowance for loan losses are the
current  financial  condition  of  the  Company's borrowers and the value of the
security, if any, for their loans.  Current economic conditions and their impact
on  various  industries  and  individual  borrowers  are  also  taken  into
consideration,  as are the Company's historical loan loss experience and reports
of  banking  regulatory  authorities.  Because  these  estimates,  factors  and
evaluations are primarily judgmental, no assurance can be given as to whether or
not the Company will sustain loan losses substantially higher in relation to the
size  of the allowance for loan losses or that subsequent evaluation of the loan
portfolio  may  not  require  substantial  changes  in  such  allowance.

The  following  table  summarizes  the Company's allowance for loan loss for the
dates  indicated:

</TABLE>

The provision for loan losses was $3,567,000 for the nine months ended September
30,  2000.  This is a decrease of $891,000 or 20.0%, over the $4,458,000 for the
nine  months  ended September 30, 1999, primarily due to the establishment of an
initial reserve for loans securitized in 1999. Gross loans outstanding decreased
27.2% from December 1999 to September 2000.  For the nine months ended September
30,  2000,  losses  charged to the allowance for loan losses totaled $4,230,000.
This  was  offset  by $164,000 recovery; with the net effect being $4,066,000 of
loans were charged to the allowance.  The increase in the ratio of allowance for
loan  losses  to gross loans was due to the decrease in loans available for sale
which  are  carried  at  the lower of cost or market and as such no allowance is
recorded.

Management  of  the  Company reviews with the Board of Directors the adequacy of
the  allowance  for loan losses on a quarterly basis. The loan loss provision is
adjusted  when  specific items reflect a need for such an adjustment. Management
believes  that  there  were  no material loan losses during the last fiscal year
that  has  not  been  charged off. Management also believes that the Company has
adequately  provided  for all individual items in its portfolio which may result
in  a  material  loss  to  the  Company.

OTHER  INCOME
Other  income  includes  service  charges  on deposit accounts, gains on sale of
loans,  servicing  fees, and other revenues not derived from interest on earning
assets.  Other  income  for the three months ended September 30, 2000, decreased
39.6%  over  the  three months ended September 30, 1999.  Other operating income
for  the  nine  months  ended  September  30, 2000 decreased 33.1% over the nine
months  ended September 30, 1999.  This decrease was due to the Company focusing
its  resources  on the sale of its portfolio of HLTV loans of which the majority
were sold at book value and, accordingly, the Company did not recognize any gain
on  their  sale.


                                       14

OTHER  EXPENSES
Other  expenses include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment,
and  other  operating  expenses.  Other  expenses  for  the  three  months ended
September  30,  2000,  decreased 28.7% over the three months ended September 30,
1999.  Other  expenses  for  the nine months ended September 30, 2000, decreased
18.2%  over  the  nine  months  ended  September 30, 1999. The decrease in other
expenses  for the periods compared was primarily because of lower commission and
administrative  expenses  associated  with  the  reduction  in  other  income.

The  investment  securities are made up of time deposits held in other financial
institutions,  Federal  Reserve  Bank  and  Federal  Home  Loan Bank stock, U.S.
Treasury  Notes  and Bills, mortgage-backed securities and interest only strips.
The  increase  of  45.7%  is  primarily from an increase in interest only strips
created  through  the  sale  of  loans.

LOANS
The  75.8%  decrease  in loans held for sale is because of planned sales of HLTV
Loans.

The  decrease  in  deposits  is  a  result  of  the  maturity of short-term time
deposits,  which were used to fund loans available for sale.  During fiscal year
2000,  the  Company  has  actively  sought  to  reduce its high interest bearing
deposits  and,  when  appropriate,  has  replaced them with non-interest bearing
deposits.

LIQUIDITY
The  Company  has an asset and liability management program that aids management
in  maintaining  its  interest  margins  during times of both rising and falling
interest rates and in maintaining sufficient liquidity. Liquidity of the Company
at September 30, 2000 was 21% and at December 31, 1999, was 38%, based on liquid
assets  (consisting  of cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, deposits in
other  financial  institutions, investments, and loans held for sale) divided by
total  assets.  Management  believes  it  maintains  adequate  liquidity levels.

At  times  when  the  Company  has  more  funds  than  it  needs for its reserve
requirements or short term liquidity needs, the Company increases its securities
investments  and  sells  federal  funds. It is management's policy to maintain a
substantial  portion  of its portfolio of assets and liabilities on a short-term
or  highly  liquid  basis in order to maintain rate flexibility and to meet loan
funding  and liquidity needs.  The Company has two federal funds lines of credit
with its correspondent banks totaling $8,000,000. In addition, the Company has a
line  of  credit  with  the  Federal Home Loan Bank. This line had approximately
$19,000,000  available  at  September  30,  2000.

CAPITAL  RESOURCES
The  Company's equity capital was $37,401,000 at September 30, 2000. The primary
source  of  capital  for  the Company has been the retention of net income.  The
Company  declared  a  quarterly  dividend  of  $0.04 a share for shareholders of
record  on  January  4,  2000  payable  January  20,  2000.

On  December  28, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a stock
buy-back  plan.  Under  this  plan  management is authorized to repurchase up to
$2,000,000  worth  of the outstanding shares of its common stock. As of December
31,  1999  and  September  30, 2000 management had repurchased 137,437 shares of
common stock at a cost of  $1,236,000.  No additional shares have been purchased
in  2000.

Under  the  Prompt Corrective Action provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Act,  national  banks  are  assigned regulatory capital classifications based on
specified  capital  ratios of the institutions.  The capital classifications are
"well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly
undercapitalized"  and  "critically  undercapitalized."

The relevant capital ratios of the institution in this determination are (i) the
ratio  of  Tier  I  capital  (primarily  common stock and retained earnings less
goodwill  and  other  intangible  assets)  to adjusted average total assets (the
"Tier  I  capital to average assets ratio"), (ii) the ratio of Tier I capital to
risk-weighted  assets  (the  "Tier  I  risk-based capital ratio"), and (iii) the
ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets (the "total risk-based
capital  ratio").  To be considered "well capitalized," an institution must have
a  Tier  I  capital  to average assets ratio of at least 5%, a Tier I risk-based
capital  ratio  of at least 6%, and a total risk-based capital ratio of at least
10%.  Generally,  for  an  institution to be considered "adequately capitalized"
these three ratios must be at least 4%, 4% and 8%, respectively.  An institution
will  generally  be  considered (1) "undercapitalized" if any one of these three
ratios  is  less  than  4%,  4%  and  8%,  respectively,  and (2) "significantly
undercapitalized"  if  any one of these three ratios is less than 3%, 3% and 6%,
respectively.  As  of  September  30,  2000, based on the most recent regulatory
notification,  the  Company  was  determined  to  be  adequately  capitalized.
