                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       Basis of Presentation

         The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  were
         prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and,  therefore,
         do not  include  information  or  footnotes  necessary  for a  complete
         presentation  of financial  position,  results of  operations  and cash
         flows in conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles.
         Accordingly,  these financial  statements should be read in conjunction
         with the  consolidated  financial  statements  and notes thereto of the
         Corporation included in Camco's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
         ended December 31, 1999. However,  all adjustments  (consisting only of
         normal  recurring  accruals)  which, in the opinion of management,  are
         necessary  for  a  fair  presentation  of  the  consolidated  financial
         statements have been included.  The results of operations for the three
         month period ended March 31, 2000,  are not  necessarily  indicative of
         the results which may be expected for the entire year.

         In  January  2000,  Camco  Financial   Corporation   ("Camco",  or  the
         "Corporation")   acquired  Westwood  Homestead  Financial   Corporation
         ("Westwood")   utilizing  the  purchase   method  of  accounting   (the
         "Merger").  Westwood was dissolved upon  consummation of the Merger and
         Westwood's  banking   subsidiary,   Westwood  Homestead  Savings  Bank,
         continued  operations as a wholly-owned  subsidiary of the Corporation.
         Camco paid $11.1  million  in cash and issued  1,304,875  of its common
         shares in connection with the Merger.

2.       Principles of Consolidation

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
         of Camco and its six wholly-owned subsidiaries:  Cambridge Savings Bank
         ("Cambridge  Savings"),  Marietta  Savings Bank  ("Marietta  Savings"),
         First Federal Savings Bank of Washington Court House ("First Federal"),
         First Federal Bank for Savings ("First  Savings"),  Westwood  Homestead
         Savings Bank  ("Westwood")  (collectively  hereinafter "the Banks") and
         Camco  Title  Insurance  Agency,  Inc.,  as  well  as two  second  tier
         subsidiaries,  Camco Mortgage Corporation and WestMar Mortgage Company.
         All  significant  intercompany  balances  and  transactions  have  been
         eliminated.

3.       Earnings Per Share

         Basic  earnings per share for the three month  periods  ended March 31,
         2000  and  1999,   is  computed   based  on  6,864,553   and  5,742,235
         weighted-average shares outstanding, respectively.

         Diluted earnings per share is computed taking into consideration common
         shares  outstanding and dilutive  potential  common shares to be issued
         under the  Corporation's  stock option plans.  Weighted-average  common
         shares deemed  outstanding for purposes of computing  diluted  earnings
         per share  totaled  6,905,051 and 5,868,679 for the three month periods
         ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)


3.       Earnings Per Share (continued)

         There were 40,498 and 126,444 incremental shares related to the assumed
         exercise  of stock  options  included  in the  computation  of  diluted
         earnings per share for the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and
         1999, respectively.

         Options   to   purchase   176,059   shares  of  common   stock  with  a
         weighted-average exercise price of $11.67 were outstanding at March 31,
         2000,   but  were  excluded  from  the   computation  of  common  share
         equivalents  because the exercise  prices were greater than the average
         market price of the common shares.

4.       Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In June 1998,  the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board (the "FASB")
         issued Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS") No. 133,
         "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities," which
         requires  entities to  recognize  all  derivatives  in their  financial
         statements as either assets or liabilities measured at fair value. SFAS
         No.  133  also   specifies  new  methods  of  accounting   for  hedging
         transactions, prescribes the items and transactions that may be hedged,
         and  specifies  detailed  criteria  to be  met  to  qualify  for  hedge
         accounting.

         The definition of a derivative  financial instrument is complex, but in
         general,  it is an instrument with one or more underlyings,  such as an
         interest rate or foreign  exchange rate,  that is applied to a notional
         amount,  such as an amount of  currency,  to determine  the  settlement
         amount(s).  It generally requires no significant initial investment and
         can  be  settled  net  or by  delivery  of an  asset  that  is  readily
         convertible to cash.  SFAS No. 133 applies to  derivatives  embedded in
         other  contracts,  unless the underlying of the embedded  derivative is
         clearly and closely related to the host contract.

         SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for fiscal years
         beginning  after June 15, 2000. On adoption,  entities are permitted to
         transfer  held-to-maturity debt securities to the available-for-sale or
         trading  category  without  calling into question  their intent to hold
         other debt  securities  to maturity in the future.  SFAS No. 133 is not
         expected  to have a  material  impact  on the  Corporation's  financial
         statements.

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

            For the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999


General

Camco's profitability depends primarily on the level of its net interest income,
which is the difference  between  interest  income on  interest-earning  assets,
principally loans,  mortgage-backed  securities and investment  securities,  and
interest  expense on deposit accounts and borrowings.  In recent years,  Camco's
net  earnings  have  been  heavily  influenced  by the  level of  other  income,
including gains on sale of loans,  loan servicing fees, and other fees.  Camco's
operations are also influenced by the level of general, administrative and other
expenses, including employee compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment,
federal deposit insurance  premiums,  as well as various other operating expense
categories, including federal income tax expense.


Discussion  of Financial  Condition  Changes from December 31, 1999 to March 31,
2000

At March 31, 2000, Camco's consolidated assets totaled $1.0 billion, an increase
of $190.3  million,  or 23.4%,  over the December  31, 1999 total.  The increase
during the current three month period was primarily  due to the  acquisition  of
Westwood which resulted in net asset growth of approximately $159.5 million. The
additional  increase in total assets was through  internal  growth  primarily in
loans  receivable,  and was funded by  deposit  growth of $20.0  million  and an
increase of $22.8 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB").

Cash and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions totaled $18.9
million at March 31, 2000, an increase of $1.9 million,  or 11.3%, from December
31, 1999 levels.  The increase was  attributable to the $3.1 million of cash and
other interest-bearing deposits acquired through the Merger.

Investment  securities  totaled  $17.9 million at March 31, 2000, an increase of
$718,000,  or 4.2%, over the total at December 31, 1999.  Investment  securities
purchases of $750,000 were offset by a market  valuation  adjustment and premium
amortization of $33,000.

Mortgage-backed  securities totaled $17.0 million at March 31, 2000, an increase
of $4.6  million,  or 36.7%,  over  December  31,  1999,  due  primarily  to the
mortgage-backed  securities  acquired  through the Merger totaling $5.2 million,
which was  partially  offset by  principal  repayments  totaling  $660,000 and a
market valuation adjustment of $10,000.

Loans receivable and loans held for sale increased by $175.1 million,  or 24.1%,
during the three months ended March 31, 2000, to a total of $901.4 million.  The
increase  resulted  primarily  from loans acquired  through the Merger  totaling
$142.0  million  and loan  disbursements  totaling  $80.8  million,  which  were
partially  offset by  principal  repayments  of $31.2  million and loan sales of
$12.8  million.  The volume of loans  originated  and purchased  during the 2000
three month period was exceeded by that of the 1999 period by $48.8 million,  or
37.7%,  while the volume of loan sales  decreased by $15.5 million year to year.
Loans held for sale totaled  $4.8  million at March 31,  2000,  compared to $3.2
million at December 31, 1999.

During the first quarter of 2000,  continued  rising interest rates have shifted
consumer  preference  from  fixed-rate  mortgages to  adjustable-rate  mortgages
(ARMs). The majority of loans originated in 2000 have been ARMs and,  consistent
with its past practice, Camco has retained most of the ARMs in its portfolio.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

            For the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999


Discussion  of Financial  Condition  Changes from December 31, 1999 to March 31,
2000 (continued)

Nonperforming  loans (90 days or more delinquent plus nonaccrual  loans) totaled
$4.2  million  and  $4.0  million  at March  31,  2000 and  December  31,  1999,
respectively,  constituting  .47% and .55% of total net loans,  including  loans
held for sale, at those dates.  Nonperforming loans consist primarily of one- to
four-family  residential  properties  which  management  believes are adequately
collateralized.  The consolidated allowance for loan losses totaled $2.6 million
and $1.9  million  at  March  31,  2000 and  December  31,  1999,  respectively,
representing  62.1% and 46.9% of  nonperforming  loans,  respectively,  at those
dates.  The allowance for loan losses was increased as a result of the Merger by
$641,000  which  represents  the allowance  maintained by Westwood  prior to the
Merger. Although management believes that its allowance for loan losses at March
31, 2000, is adequate based upon the available  facts and  circumstances,  there
can be no assurance  that  additions to such  allowance will not be necessary in
future periods, which could adversely affect Camco's results of operations.

Deposits  totaled  $582.1  million  at March 31,  2000,  an  increase  of $120.3
million,  or 26.1%,  over  December  31,  1999  levels.  The  increase  resulted
primarily  from deposits of $100.3  million  acquired in the Merger coupled with
deposit  portfolio growth of $20.0 million,  or 4.3%,  which resulted  primarily
from  management's  continuing  efforts  to  achieve a  moderate  rate of growth
through advertising and pricing strategies.  Advances from the FHLB increased by
$58.0  million,  or 20.8%,  to a total of $337.1  million at March 31, 2000. The
increase  was due  primarily to net current  period  borrowings  totaling  $22.8
million, coupled with advances of $35.2 million acquired through the Merger. The
proceeds from deposit  growth and FHLB advances were primarily used to fund loan
originations during the three month period.

The Banks are  required  to  maintain  minimum  regulatory  capital  pursuant to
federal  regulations.  At March 31, 2000, the Banks' regulatory capital exceeded
all regulatory capital requirements.


Comparison  of Results of  Operations  for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2000
and 1999

General

The inclusion of the accounts of Westwood,  which Camco acquired in January 2000
in a  transaction  accounted  for  using  the  purchase  method  of  accounting,
significantly  contributed  to the increases in the level of income and expenses
during the three months ended March 31, 2000, compared to the three months ended
March 31,  1999.  Accordingly,  the  statement  of earnings for the period ended
March 31, 1999, was not restated for the Merger.

Camco's net  earnings  for the three  months  ended March 31, 2000  totaled $1.7
million,  an  increase  of  $164,000,  or 10.4%,  over the $1.6  million  of net
earnings  reported in the comparable  1999 period.  The increase in earnings was
primarily  attributable to a $1.7 million increase in net interest income, which
was  partially  offset by a decrease in other  income of  $445,000,  an $883,000
increase in general,  administrative  and other expense,  an $83,000 increase in
the provision for federal income taxes and an $83,000  increase in the provision
for loan losses.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

            For the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999


Comparison  of Results of  Operations  for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2000
and 1999 (continued)

Net Interest Income

Total  interest  income for the three months ended March 31, 2000,  increased by
$6.3  million,  or 54.8%,  over the three month  period  ended  March 31,  1999,
generally  reflecting the effects of growth in average  interest-earning  assets
outstanding of approximately $286.5 million.

Interest income on loans and  mortgage-backed  securities  totaled $17.0 million
for the three  months  ended March 31,  2000,  an increase of $6.2  million,  or
57.4%, over the comparable 1999 period.  The increase resulted  primarily from a
$301.3 million,  or 53.5%,  increase in the average balance  outstanding year to
year,  and a 44 basis point increase in the average  yield.  Interest  income on
investments and other  interest-bearing  assets increased by $69,000,  or 10.9%,
due primarily to an increase of 142 basis points in the weighted-average  yield,
which was partially offset by a $5.8 million, or 12.4%,  decrease in the average
balance outstanding year to year.

Interest expense on deposits increased by $1.7 million,  or 36.2%, to a total of
$6.4  million for the three  months  ended March 31,  2000,  due  primarily to a
$120.3  million,  or 26.1%,  increase  in  deposits  over the prior  year and an
increase  of 40  basis  points  in the  weighted-average  interest  rates  paid.
Interest  expense on borrowings  totaled $4.7 million for the three months ended
March 31,  2000,  an increase of $2.9  million,  or 160.8%,  over the 1999 three
month period.  The increase resulted primarily from a $174.9 million increase in
the average balance  outstanding year to year and an increase of 42 basis points
in the weighted-average interest rates paid.

As a result of the foregoing  changes in interest  income and interest  expense,
net interest  income  increased by $1.7  million,  or 33.8%,  to a total of $6.6
million for the three  months ended March 31,  2000.  The  interest  rate spread
decreased to approximately 2.65% for the three months ended March 31, 2000, from
2.89%  for  the  1999  period,  while  the  net  interest  margin  decreased  to
approximately 2.90% in 2000, as compared to 3.17% in the first quarter of 1999.

Provision for Losses on Loans

A  provision  for  losses on loans is  charged  to  earnings  to bring the total
allowance for loan losses to a level considered  appropriate by management based
on historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by Camco, the
status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions,
particularly as such conditions relate to Camco's market area, and other factors
related to the  collectibility  of Camco's loan  portfolio.  The  provision  for
losses on loans  totaled  $137,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, an
increase of $83,000,  or 153.7%, from the comparable period in 1999. The current
period provision generally reflects the effects of loan portfolio growth.  There
can be no assurance that the allowance for loan losses will be adequate to cover
losses on nonperforming loans in the future.

Comparison  of Results of  Operations  for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2000
and 1999 (continued)

Other Income

Other  income  totaled $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000, a
decrease of $445,000, or 28.4%, from the comparable 1999 period. The decrease in
other income was primarily  attributable  to a $625,000,  or 79.9%,  decrease in
gains on sale of loans and a decrease of $146,000,  or 23.7%,  in late  charges,
rent and other.  The  decrease  in gains on sale of loans  primarily  reflects a
reduction in sales volume year to year.  The decrease in late charges,  rent and
other was primarily  attributable  to a $141,000  decrease in title company fees
compared to the same quarter in 1999.

General, Administrative and Other Expense

General,  administrative  and other  expense  totaled $4.9 million for the three
months  ended  March 31,  2000,  an  increase of  $883,000,  or 21.8%,  over the
comparable  period in 1999.  This increase was due  primarily to a $633,000,  or
34.7%,  increase in employee  compensation and benefits,  a $146,000,  or 24.9%,
increase  in  occupancy  and  equipment  and a $75,000,  or 34.7%,  increase  in
franchise  taxes,  which were partially  offset by a decrease in federal deposit
insurance premiums of $45,000, or 60.8%.

The  acquisition  of Westwood  accounted  for $638,000,  or 72.3%,  of the total
increase in general, administrative and other expenses. Exclusive of the effects
of the Merger,  the  increase in employee  compensation  and  benefits  resulted
primarily from normal merit increased coupled with increased staffing levels due
to Camco's  overall  growth year to year,  the increase in office  occupancy and
equipment expense increased due to increased depreciation and increased building
maintenance   costs  and  franchise   taxes   increased  due  primarily  to  the
Corporation's equity growth year to year.

Federal Income Taxes

The  provision for federal  income taxes  totaled  $882,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000,  an increase of $83,000,  or 10.4%,  from the three months
ended March 31, 1999.  This increase is  attributable  to a $247,000,  or 10.4%,
increase in pre-tax earnings.  The Corporation's  effective tax rate amounted to
33.7% for each of the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There has been no  material  change in the  Corporation's  market risk since the
Corporation's  Form 10-K filed with the Securities  and Exchange  Commission for
the year ended December 31, 1999.

                         Independent Accountants' Report



Board of Directors
Camco Financial Corporation


We have reviewed the accompanying  consolidated statement of financial condition
of  Camco  Financial   Corporation  as  of  March  31,  2000,  and  the  related
consolidated  statements of earnings,  comprehensive  income, and cash flows for
the   three-month   period  then  ended.   The  financial   statements  are  the
responsibility of the Corporation's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants.  A review  of  interim  financial
information consists principally of applying analytical  procedures to financial
data and making  inquiries of persons  responsible  for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with  generally  accepted  auditing  standards,  the  objective  of which is the
expression of an opinion  regarding the financial  statements  taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material  modifications that should
be made to the  accompanying  financial  statements for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have  previously  audited,  in accordance  with generally  accepted  auditing
standards,  the consolidated statement of financial condition as of December 31,
1999, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders' equity,
and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented  herein) and in our report
dated  February  18,  2000,  we  expressed  an  unqualified   opinion  on  those
consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth in
the accompanying  consolidated  statement of financial  condition as of December
31,  1999,  is fairly  stated,  in all  material  respects,  in  relation to the
consolidated statement of financial condition from which it has been derived.
