                       JADE FINANCIAL CORP.

        Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
                       (UNAUDITED)

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

     JADE Financial Corp. (the "Holding Company") was
incorporated under Pennsylvania law in July 1998 by IGA Federal
Savings in connection with the conversion of the Company from a
savings institution to a federally chartered capital stock
savings bank, the issuance of the Company's stock to the Holding
Company and the offer and sale of the Holding Company's common
stock by the Holding Company (the "Conversion").  Upon
consummation of the Conversion on October 4, 1999, the Holding
Company became the holding company for the Company.  See Note 2
for a more detailed description of the mutual to stock
conversion.  No pro forma effect has been given to the sale of
the Holding Company's common stock in the Conversion at September
30, 1999.

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the
Holding Company have been prepared in accordance with
instructions to Form 10-QSB.  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 normally recurring adjustments) which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation at and
for the interim periods.

     The results of operations for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000.  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, 1999, contained in
the Holding Company's Form 10K filed with the Securities Exchange
Commission on March 31, 2000.

2.     CONVERSION TO CAPITAL STOCK FORM OF OWNERSHIP:

     On May 26, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company
adopted a Plan of Conversion to convert from a federal mutual
savings bank to a federal capital stock savings bank.  The
conversion was accomplished through the formation of the Holding
Company in July, 1998, the adoption of a federal stock charter,
and the sale of all of the Company's stock to the Holding Company
on October 4, 1999.

     A subscription offering ("offering") of the shares of common
stock of the Holding Company was conducted whereby the shares
were offered initially to eligible account holders, the Company's
Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP"), supplemental eligible
account holders and other members of the Company (collectively
"subscribers").  During the offering, subscribers submitted
orders for common stock along with full payment for the order in
either cash, by an authorization to withdraw funds for payment
from an existing deposit account at the Company upon issuance of
stock, or a combination of cash and account withdrawal.
Subscription funds received in connection with the offering were
placed in segregated savings accounts in the Company.  For these
orders that were to be funded through account withdrawals, the
Company placed "holds" on those accounts, restricting withdrawal
of any amount which would reduce the account balance below the
amount of the order.  At September 30, 1999, the Company held
$12.0 million in subscription segregated savings accounts and had
restricted withdrawals from deposit accounts in the amount of
$2.0 million.

     The Holding Company issued 1,872,923 shares in connection
with the Conversion.  Gross proceeds from the offering were
$14,500,024, which includes the proceeds from the sale of 145,000
shares to the IGA Employee Stock Ownership Plan and 60,420 shares
to the Company for transfer to the IGA Charitable Foundation.

     The Company issued all its outstanding capital stock to the
Holding Company in exchange for approximately one-half of the net
proceeds.  The Holding Company accounted for the purchase in a
manner similar to a pooling of interests whereby assets and
liabilities of the Company maintain their historical cost basis
in the consolidated company.

3.     EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE:

     Earnings per common share for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999 is not applicable, because IGA Federal
Savings' (the Bank's) conversion from mutual-to-stock form was
not completed until October 4, 1999.  Presented below is
information with respect to the calculation of basic and diluted
earnings per share for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2000.

4.     COMPREHENSIVE INCOME:

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income, was effective for the Bank for
the year beginning July 1, 1998, and establishes reporting and
display of comprehensive income in the financial statements.
Comprehensive income represents net earnings and certain amounts
reported directly in stockholders' equity, such as the net
unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities.  The
Bank adopted SFAS No. 130 effective June 30, 1998.

     The Company's comprehensive income for the three months
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are as follows:

5.  INVESTMENT VALUATION

     JADE, together with three other financial institutions
participated in the initial capitalization of BankZip.com, an
internet banking company. The total capitalization of BankZip was
$13.9 million and JADE contributed $2.5 million in the form of a
convertible note. On September 15, 2000, an involuntary
bankruptcy petition was filed against ZipFinancial.Com, Inc. by
one of its vendors, the petition was subsequently dismissed on
October 23, 2000.  On November 2, 2000, BankZip completed
$410,000 in additional financing and is seeking additional
financing of $1.5 to $2.0 million.  The company has entered into
a term sheet with a strategic investor to provide a $1.0 million
line of credit.  The ability to draw on the line of credit will
be dependent on sales.  The continued viability of the company is
dependent on its ability to raise additional capital.  No
assurances can be given that the company will be able to raise
additional capital. To reflect the uncertainty surrounding this
investment, as of September 30, 2000, JADE has established an
equity account valuation reserve pursuant to SFAS 115 of 50% or
$1.25 million while BankZip seeks additional financing.

6.    NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS:

      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income, is effective for the Bank for the
period beginning July 1, 1998, and establishes reporting and
display of comprehensive income in the financial statements.
Comprehensive income represents net earnings and certain amounts
reported directly in stockholders' equity, such as the net
unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities.  The
Bank adopted SFAS No. 130 effective June 30, 1998.

     SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivation Instruments and
Hedging Activities, is effective for the Bank for years beginning
July 1, 1999.  The Bank currently has no activity subject to SFAS
133.

     In October 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 134, Accounting
for Mortgage-Backed Securities Retained after the Securitization
of Mortgage Loans Held-for-Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise.
SFAS No. 134 changes the way mortgage banking firms account for
certain securities and other interests they retain after
securitizing mortgage loans that were held-for-sale.  Under
current practice, a bank that securitizes credit card receivables
has a choice in how it classifies any retained securities based
on its intent and ability to hold or sell those investments.
SFAS No. 134 gives the mortgage banking firms the opportunity to
apply the same intent-based accounting that is applied by other
companies.  SFAS No. 134 was effective for the fiscal quarter
beginning after December 15, 1998. The implementation of SFAS No.
134 did not have a material impact on the Bank's financial
condition or results of operations.

     COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND
DECEMBER 31, 1999

     Our total assets increased $15.3 million from $199.6 million
to $214.9 million or 7.67% from December 31, 1999 to
September 30, 2000.  Our total liabilities increased $14.8
million from $172.3 million to $187.1 million or 8.59% from
December 31, 1999 to September 30, 2000.  We had $20.0 million
borrowed from the Federal Home Loan Bank as of September 30,
2000.  The increase in assets and liabilities at September 30,
2000 compared to December 31, 1999 is primarily attributable to
an increase in deposit balances and an increase in borrowings
from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

     Total loans increase $13.6 million from $115.3 million to
$129.0 million or 11.88 % from December 31, 1999 to September 30,
2000.  The increase was primarily the result of increased loan
originations in almost all loan categories except credit cards,
as illustrated by the following loan composition table:

     On December 14, 1999, JADE purchased a convertible debenture
in the amount of $2.5 million with an initial rate of 5.45% from
ZipFinancial.Com.Inc (d/b/a Bankzip.com). BankZip aggregates and
provides Internet-based services to community financial
institutions.  This menu of Internet services has two dimensions-
an external consumer dimension and an internal bank operations
dimension.  From a consumer banking perspective, the aggregated
services, such as online applications, instant online loan
decisions, full call center support and marketing support, enable
community financial institutions to provide a complete online
banking solution for existing customers and attract new
customers.  BankZip's menu of Internet services also allows
community financial institutions to convert back-office processes
to a more cost-effective online environment.  By converting back-
office processes to an online environment, financial institutions
can convert fixed expense to variable expense.  As a result,
financial institutions can realize significant cost savings and
efficiencies while simultaneously enhancing their ability to
deliver products and services to online and offline customers.

     On September 15, 2000, an involuntary bankruptcy petition
was filed against ZipFinancial.Com, Inc. by one of its vendors;
however, the petition was subsequently dismissed on October 23,
2000.  On November 2, 2000, BankZip completed $410,000 in
additional financing and is seeking additional financing of $1.5
to $2.0 million.  The company has entered into a term sheet with
a strategic investor to provide a $1.0 million line of credit.
The ability to draw on the line of credit will be dependent on
sales.  The continued viability of the company is dependent on
its ability to raise additional capital.  No assurances can be
given that the company will be able to raise additional capital.
To reflect the uncertainty surrounding this investment, as of
September 30, 2000, JADE has established an equity account
valuation reserve pursuant to SFAS 115 of 50% or $1.25 million
while BankZip seeks additional financing.

     Our total equity increased from $27.2 million to
$27.7 million or 1.84% from December 31, 1999 to September 30,
2000 due to an increase in retained earnings.  Accumulated and
other comprehensive income increased  from ($1.7) million at
December 31, 1999 to ($2.2) million at September 30, 2000.

Net Income:

     Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was
$289,000.  Net income for the comparable period in 1999 was
$209,000.  The increase in the current period when compared to
the prior period was due to a significant increase in lending
from the prior period as average loans increased by $18.8 million
or 17.22% from $109.2 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1999  to $128.0 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000.  The increase in volume was offset by a
decline of 44 basis points in our net interest spread caused by
rising interest rates and our negative gap position.

     Core earnings, defined as pretax earnings adjusted for
securities sales transactions and unusual or non-recurring
expense or income items, were $335,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to $324,000 in the prior year period.

     The following table summarizes the components of adjusted
pretax core earnings:

                                             Three Months Ended

    ADJUSTED PRETAX CORE EARNINGS             $  335    $  324

INTEREST INCOME.  Total interest income increased $500,000 or
16.13% from $3.1 million for the third quarter of 1999 compared
to $3.6 million for the third quarter of 2000.  This increase
resulted from an increase in average earning assets of $19.0
million, or 11.21% from $169.5 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 to $188.5 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000.  The average yield paid on earning assets
also increased 32 basis points from 7.40% for the third quarter
of 1999 compared to 7.72% for the third quarter of 2000.

INTEREST EXPENSE.  Total interest expense increased $489,000, or
34.93% from $1.4 million for the third quarter of 1999 compared
to $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2000.  This increase was
mainly attributable to an increase in borrowed funds and a 76
basis point increase in the overall cost of interest-bearing
liabilities caused by rising interest rates and the increased use
of higher cost borrowed funds.

NET INTEREST INCOME.  Net interest income increased by only
$11,000 for the third quarter of 2000 compared to the third
quarter of 1999.  This increase is attributable to a higher
volume of earning assets and liabilities that was offset by a 39
basis point decrease in the net interest margin.  This decrease
in the net interest margin was caused by rising interest rates
during the period and the fact that our interest bearing
liabilities repriced to reflect these higher rates more quickly
than our interest earning assets.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES.  The provision for loan losses
remained unchanged at $135,000  for both the third quarter of
2000 and the third quarter of 1999.  During the three months
ended September 30, 2000, the Company had charge-offs of $158,341
and recoveries of $28,167.  At September 30, 2000, the Company's
allowance for loan losses totaled $1.7 million which was 1.28% of
total loans.

NONINTEREST INCOME.  Noninterest income increased $216,000 or
75.79% to $501,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000
from $285,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1999.  The
increase was due primarily to income from Bank Owned Life
Insurance (BOLI), title insurance income, and increased fees from
debit card transactions.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE.  Total noninterest expense increased
$204,000 or 12.76% to $1.8 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 from $1.6 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1999.  This increase resulted primarily from an
increase in compensation and employee benefits and an increase in
professional fees associated with our status as a public company.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES.  The provision for federal income taxes
increased relative to the amount of taxable income for the
period.

Net Income:

     Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was
$741,000.  Net income for the comparable period in 1999 was
$531,000.  The increase is attributable to increased levels of
interest-earning assets, and a significant increase in
noninterest income, offset by a decrease in our net interest
spread and net interest margin.

     Core earnings, defined as pretax earnings adjusted for
securities sales transactions and unusual or non-recurring
expense or income items, were $994,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to $816,000 in the prior year period.

     The following table summarizes the components of adjusted
pretax core earnings:

                                              Nine Months Ended

  losses                                       1,447        778

  ADJUSTED PRETAX CORE EARNINGS               $  994     $  816

INTEREST INCOME.  Total interest income increased $1.3 million or
14.29% from $9.1 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 compared to $10.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000.  This increase resulted from an increase in
average earning assets of $17.3 million, or 10.40% from $166.4
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to $183.7
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.  The
average yield or rate paid on earning assets also increased 27
basis points from 7.31% for the nine months ended June 30, 1999
compared to 7.51% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.

INTEREST EXPENSE.  Total interest expense increased $1.0 million,
or 25.0% from $4.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to $5.0 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000.  This increase was mainly attributable
to an increase in total interest-bearing liabilities of $15.3
million or 9.59% from $159.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to $174.9 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 and a 48 basis point increase in the
overall cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

NET INTEREST INCOME.  Net interest income increased $303,000 or
5.94% from $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 compared to $5.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000.  This increase is attributable to a higher
volume of earning assets that was partially offset by a 17 point
compression in the net interest margin.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES.  The provision for loan losses
increased by $160,000 or 39.51% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 1999.  This increase reflects changes in the
composition of the company's loan portfolio from that of a
traditional consumer focused credit union to a more diversified
banking company.  During the nine months ended September 30,
2000, the Company had charge-offs of $295,570 and recoveries of
$103,053.

NONINTEREST INCOME.  Noninterest income increased $581,000 or
74.68% to $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 from $778,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
The increase was due primarily to income from Bank Owned Life
Insurance (BOLI), title insurance income, and increased fees from
debit card transactions offset by a loss of $100,000 to write
down a subsidiary investment.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE.  Total noninterest expense increased
$634,000 or 13.49% to $5.3 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $4.7 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999.  This increase resulted primarily from an
increase in compensation and employee benefits, including the
ESOP, an increase in depreciation related to the purchase of a
new computer system, and an increase in professional fees.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES.  The provision for federal income taxes
increased relative to the amount of taxable income for the
period.
