Note 4 - Income Tax

     During the second quarter of 2000, an adjustment of $500,000
to the amount of realizable deferred tax asset was recorded based
on a determination that the Company is more likely than not able to
utilize additional deferred tax assets for which a valuation
allowance has been previously provided.  The adjustment was based
on revised projections taking into consideration actual results for
the first and second quarter of 2000 that demonstrate a continuing
trend of earnings substantially above those projected as of
December 31, 1999.

page 6

     The total tax provision (benefit) rate differs from the
statutory federal rate for the reasons shown in the following table
for the six months ended June 30, 2000:

     Tax expense at the statutory federal rate                      34.0%
     Utilization of prior years taxable losses                     (41.1)
     State income taxes, net of federal benefit                      7.1

     Change in valuation allowance                                 (18.0)
          Total effective tax benefit rate                         (13.7)%

     The provision for income taxes for the six months ended 2000
consists of state minimum taxes, state and federal alternative
minimum taxes, and recognition of the tax benefit of certain
deferred tax assets including net operating loss carryforwards and
the adjustment to the valuation allowance.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

     This document contains forward-looking statements that are
subject to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to,
the Company's and Bank's ability to implement their respective
long-term business plan, the economy in general and the condition
of stock markets upon which the Company's stock brokerage business
and fee income is dependent, the risks associated with Year 2000
remediation, the continued services of the Company's and Bank's key
executives and managers, the real estate market in California and
other factors beyond the Company's and Bank's control.  Such risks,
uncertainties and factors, including those discussed herein, could
cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated.
Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements, which reflect management's views only as of the date
hereof.  The Company and the Bank undertake no obligation to revise
these forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or
circumstances.  Readers are also encouraged to review the Company's
publicly available filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

Overview

     The Company is a one-bank holding company registered in
Delaware under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956.  The principal
activity of the Company is to serve as the holding company for Bank
of San Francisco, a California chartered bank, with deposits
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's Bank
Insurance Fund.  The information set forth in this report,
including unaudited interim financial statements and related data,
relates primarily to the Bank.

     The Company's Common Stock is not listed on any exchange.
First Security Van Kasper of San Francisco California is the sole
market maker in the Company's Common Stock.

     The Company recorded net income of $1,867,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2000, compared to a net income of $717,000
for the same period in 1999.  The Company recorded net income of
$3,166,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to a
net income of $1,274,000 for the same period in 1999.  The increase
in the Company's net income of $1,150,000 for the second quarter
and $1,892,000 for the first half was comprised of higher net
interest income due to higher earning assets funded by higher core
deposits, adjustment for loan losses due to a recovery received in
the second quarter 2000, non-interest income primarily from stock
option and brokerage commissions and fees, and recognition of
income tax benefit related to the carryfoward of net operation
losses, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expenses
related to incentive programs and professional fees.

     At June 30, 2000, total assets were $203.0 million, an
increase of $18.1 million, or 9.8% from $184.9 million at December
31, 1999.  As of June 30, 2000, total loans were $101.7 million, an
increase of $7.1 million, or 7.5%, compared to $94.6 million at
December 31, 1999.  Total deposits were $155.8 million at June 30,
2000, an increase of $16.9 million, or 12.2%, compared to $138.9
million at December 31, 1999.


Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

     The Company's net interest income was $2.3 million in the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to $1.5 million for the same
period in 1999, or an increase of 53.3%.  The Company's net

page 8

interest income was $4.6 million in the six months ended June 30,
2000 compared to $3.1 million for the same period in 1999, or an
increase of 48.4%.  The increase was primarily the result of an
increase
in higher earning assets.

     The Company's second quarter average interest earning assets
increased to $189.2 million for 2000 compared to $130.7 million for
the same period in 1999.  The increase was funded from higher
deposits which increased to an average of $149.4 million for the
second quarter 2000 compared to $102.9 million for the same period
in 1999.  The Company's net interest margin increased to 4.97% for
the second quarter 2000 compared to 4.74% for 1999.  The increase
was primarily higher interest paid on investments including
overnight deposits as a result of increases in market interest
rates.

     The Company's year to date average interest earning assets
increased to $185.4 million for the first half of 2000 compared to
$130.3 million for the same period in 1999.  The increase was
funded from higher deposits which increased to an average of $153.7
million for the second half of 2000 compared to $101.5 million for
the same period in 1999.  The Company's net interest margin
increased to 4.95% for the first half of 2000 compared to 4.77% for
1999 due to higher interest paid on investments including overnight
deposits and higher non-interest bearing deposits.

Provision/Adjustment for Loan and Lease Losses

     In 2000 and 1999, the Bank recorded reductions to the
allowance for loan and lease losses as an adjustment for loan and
lease losses, and increases to the allowance for loan and lease
losses as provisions.  The provisions and adjustments are based on
the factors discussed under "Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses".


     The Company's second quarter 2000 adjustment for loan loss
increased earnings by $332,000 compared to the second quarter of
1999.  An adjustment of $232,000 was recorded in second quarter
2000 compared to a provision of $100,000 in 1999.  The adjustment
was related to loan loss recoveries received during the second
quarter of 2000.

     The Company's first half 2000 adjustment for loan loss
increased earnings by $257,000 compared to the same period in 1999.
The first half 2000 adjustment, net of provisions, for loan and
lease losses was $157,000 compared to a provision of $100,000 for
the same period in 1999.

Non-Interest Income

     Non-interest income was $1.6 million for the quarter ended
June 30, 2000 compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 1999,
an increase of $326,000, or 25.3%.  Non-interest income was $3.8
million for the first half of 2000 compared to $2.5 million for the
same period in 1999, an increase of $1.3 million, or 52.1%.  The
increase in non-interest income was primarily the result of an
increase in stock option and brokerage commission income from
higher transaction volumes, an increase in real estate rental
income from higher rents, an increase in operating lease income,
and an increase in all other fees and charges in 2000 compared to
1999.

Non-Interest Expense

     The Company's non-interest expenses increased to $2.7 million
from $2.0 million for the second quarter 2000 and 1999,
respectively.  The Company's non-interest expenses increased to
$5.6 million from $4.2 million for the six month period ended June
30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The second quarter increase of
$746,000, or 37.4%, and the first half increase of $1.6 million, or
37.4%, was

page 9

primarily related to compensation related expenses
including incentive programs, higher professional fees related to
higher legal and accounting costs, and higher operating lease
equipment depreciation expense.


Financial Condition

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Liquidity

     The Bank's liquid assets, which include cash and short term
investments totaled $47.2 million, or 23.3% of total assets, at
June 30, 2000, an increase of $7.7 million, from $39.5 million, or
21.4% of total assets, at December 31, 1999.  The change in
liquidity was the result of an increase in deposits of $16.9
million offset by an increase in investments available for sale of
$6.0 million which was partially used to fund an increase in loans.

     As of June 30, 2000, the Bank had pledged securities totaling
$23.7 million to the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the
"FHLB") as collateral for other borrowings totaling $18.0 million.
As of June 30, 2000, the Bank has the ability to borrow up to a
maximum of 20% of total assets or $40.6 million from the FHLB upon
the pledge of sufficient collateral.  In the future, long and
short-term borrowings from the FHLB may be used as an on-going
source of liquidity and funding.  As of June 30, 2000, the Bank had
other securities totaling $600,000 pledged as collateral for public
funds and trusts.

     The Bank has access to the discount window at the Federal
Reserve Bank (the "FRB") for a total borrowing facility of $2.8
million upon the pledge of securities.  At June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 1999, no securities were pledged as collateral for the
FRB facility.


     Capital

     At June 30, 2000, shareholders' equity was $27.1 million
compared to $24.0 million at December 31, 1999.

     The Company and the Bank are subject to general regulations
issued by the FRB, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and
California Department of Financial Institutions which require
maintenance of a certain levels of capital.  As of June 30, 2000,
the Company and the Bank are in compliance with all minimum capital
ratio requirements.

     The following table reflects both the Company's and the Bank's
capital ratios with respect to minimum capital requirements in
effect as of June 30, 2000:

                                                           Minimum
                                                           Capital
                           Company          Bank       Requirement
Leverage ratio                12.5%         12.5%              4.0%

Total risk-based capital      18.6          18.5               8.0

Investment Activities

     At June 30, 2000, the Company's investment securities, and
FHLB stock totaled $40.0 million, or 19.7% of total assets,
compared to $36.3 million, or 19.6% of total assets, at December
31, 1999.  Investment securities increased as a result of security
purchases which were partially offset by principal amortization on
existing mortgage-backed securities and sale of Federal Home Loan
Bank Stock.

     The Company's investment portfolio may from time to time
include treasury and agency securities, fixed and adjustable rate
mortgage backed securities, and to a limited extent collateralized
mortgage backed securities.  Generally, the Bank's investment
securities held-to-maturity and available-for-sale have maturities
or principal amortization of seven years or less.

     At June 30, 2000, investment securities held-to-maturity
totaled $696,000, compared to $2.0 million at December 31, 1999,
and are carried at amortized cost.  At June 30, 2000, the Company
held $38.2 million in securities available-for-sale, compared to
$32.2 million at December 31, 1999.  Investment securities
available-for-sale are accounted for at fair value.  Unrealized
gains and losses are recorded as an adjustment to equity and are
not reflected in the current earnings of the Company.  As of June
30, 2000, the investment securities available-for-sale have an
unrealized loss of $671,000 net of tax, that was included as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income under
shareholder's equity to reflect the current market value of the
securities available-for-sale.  The decline in market value of the
investment securities was the result of increasing market interest
rates during the second half of 2000.  The market value of the
investment portfolio will fluctuate with changes in market interest
rates.  Management believes the recent decline in market value is
temporary and does not represent a permanent impairment in the
market value of the investment portfolio.

Loans and Leases

     During the first half of 2000, total loans and leases
increased, from $94.6 million at December 31, 1999 to $101.7
million at June 30, 2000.  The increase resulted primarily from the
funding of new loans.  The composition of the Bank's loan and lease
portfolio at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 is summarized as
follows:

                                                June 30,  December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)                             2000        1999

Real estate mortgage                            $74,156       $67,914

     Impaired Loans and Leases

     On June 30, 2000, the Bank had no loans that were past due
more than 31 days.

     The Company identifies loans with weak credit quality
characteristics for review in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accountin Standards ("SFAS") No. 114 "Accounting by
Creditors for

page 11

Impairment of a Loan" as amended by SFAS No. 118
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan-Income
Recognition and Disclosures" (the "SFAS No. 114").  As of June 30,
2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company had no impaired loans.
Total interest income recognized on impaired loans during the first
half of 2000 and 1999 was zero and $4,000, respectively.

     There can be no assurance that the Bank will not experience
losses in attempting to collect or otherwise liquidate any assets
that become non-performing in the future.  As of June 30, 2000, the
Company's statement of financial condition did not include any non-
performing assets.

     Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

     Generally, the Bank charges current earnings with a provision
for estimated losses on loan and lease receivables.  The Bank will
provide an adjustment if the total allowance for loan and lease
losses exceeds the amount of estimated loan and lease losses.  The
provisions or adjustments take into consideration specifically
identified problem loans, the financial condition of the borrowers,
the fair value of the collateral, recourse to guarantors and other
factors.

     Specific loss allowances are established based on asset
characteristics and credit quality.  Specific loss allowances are
utilized to ensure that the allowance is allocated based on the
credit quality including the present value of expected cash flows,
the terms and structure of the loan, the financial condition of the
borrower, and the fair value of underlying collateral.  As of June
30, 2000, none of the allowance for loan losses was allocable to
impaired loans, as identified in accordance with SFAS No. 114.  In
addition, the Bank carries an "unallocated" loan and lease loss
allowance to provide for inherent losses on loans and leases based
on present economic conditions, trends, and related uncertainties.
The following table summarizes the loan and lease loss experience
of the Bank for the quarter ended June 30, 2000:

   lease losses at December 31, 1999                      $1,525

Other Assets

     Operating Leases

     As of June 30, 2000, other assets included investments in
operating leases totaling $3.8 million compared to $4.3 million at
December 31, 1999.  Generally, the operating leases are comprised
of computer and electronic equipment leased to various lessees for
periods ranging from a few days to five years.  The Bank has
contracted with a leasing administrator to manage the equipment and
collect lease payments.

     Deferred Tax Asset

     As of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, other assets
included total deferred tax assets net of deferred tax liabilities
and the valuation allowance of $3.4 million and $2.9 million,
respectively.  The Company reduced the valuation allowance by
$500,000 as income tax benefit.  Based on the evidence

page 12

available as of June 30, 2000, it is likely that $3.4 million of the
deferred tax asset will be realized based on the Company's current
financial condition, continuing trend of increasing earnings, and available
information about future years.


Deposits

     The Company had total deposits of $155.8 million at June 30,
2000 compared to $138.9 million at December 31, 1999, an increase
of $16.9 million or 12.2%.  The increase is attributed primarily to
an increase in homeowners' association related customer's deposits
of $4.7 million, an increase in Escrow related deposits of $11.2
million, and an increase in Private and Business Banking client's
deposits by $3.0 million.  A summary of deposits at June 30, 2000
and December 31, 1999 is as follows:
