UNITED SECURITY BANCORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. Management Statement
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
United Security Bancorporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries
(USBN), United Security Bank, Home Security Bank, Bank of Pullman,
USB Insurance Agencies, Inc., USB Mortgage Company, and USB
Leasing, Inc. after eliminating all significant intercompany
balances and transactions. In the opinion of the Company, the
accompanying audited and unaudited Consolidated Financial
Statements present fairly the financial position of the Company as
of June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, and the related statements
of income and cash flows for the six month period ended June 30,
1998 and 1997.
Certain reclassifications of 1997 balances have been made to
conform with the June 30, 1998 presentation; there was no impact on
net income, earnings per share or stockholders' equity. Also per
share amounts and weighted average shares outstanding have been
retroactively adjusted to reflect previously disclosed stock
dividends and split-ups.
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted two recently issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) as follows:
SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income establishes standards
for reporting and display of comprehensive, or all inclusive
income. In the Company's case, based on current operations, it
includes as an addition or deduction to reported net income, the
net change in unrealized gains or losses on securities. This
statement has no effect on net income of the Company. All prior
periods shown on the financial statements have been restated to
conform with the statement.
SFAS No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and
Related Information establishes standards for the way that public
business enterprises report information about operating segments in
annual financial statements. Management believes that the
provisions of the statement will not have a material effect on its
financial condition or reported results of operations.

<PAGE> 7
UNITED SECURITY BANCORPORATION
NOTE 2. Securities
Most of the securities are classified as available-for-sale and are
stated at fair value, and unrealized holding gains and losses, net
of related deferred taxes, are reported as a separate component of
stockholders' equity. Gains or losses on available-for-sale
securities sales are reported as part of noninterest income based
on the net proceeds and the adjusted carrying amount of the
securities sold, using the specific identification method.
Carrying amount and fair values at June 30, 1998 and December 31,
1997 were as follows:

NOTE 4. ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance for loan loss is maintained at levels considered
adequate by management to provide for possible loan losses. The
allowance is based on management's assessment of various factors
affecting the loan portfolio, including problem loans, business
conditions and loss experience, and an overall evaluation of the
quality of the underlying collateral. Changes in the allowance for
loan loss during the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 were

UNITED SECURITY BANCORPORATION
Net Income
USBN reported a 42% increase in net income to $2,805,000 for the
first six months of 1998 compared to $1,970,000 for the same period
in 1997. Basic earnings per share increased by 42% to $.69
compared to $.49 for 1997. For second quarter 1998, earnings
increased 44% to $1,415,000 compared to $981,000 for the same
period in 1997. Basic earnings per share in second quarter was
$.35 in 1998 and $.24 in 1997, an increase of 44%. Net
nonrecurring items increased income before taxes by $482,000 for
the first six months of 1998, which included the gain on the sale
of commercial property of $366,000 in first quarter 1998, the sale
of merchant bank credit card portfolio for $163,000, $57,000 from
the reduction of the allowance for loan losses, partially offset by
acquisition expenses of $104,000. The latter three items occurred
in the second quarter of 1998. Earnings per share were improved by
$.08 for the above items during the first six months of 1998, $.06
in first quarter and $.02 in second quarter 1998.
Net Interest Income
For the first six months of 1998 net interest income grew 40% to
$9,126,000 in 1998 compared to $6,536,000 in 1997. The increase is
due to an increase in the volume of earning assets, which grew 48%
or $102 million from June 30, 1997 to June 30, 1998. Total loans
grew 39% to $257 million as of June 30, 1998 compared to $185
million as of June 30, 1997. Securities grew 161% from June 30,
1997 to June 30, 1998. The 1997 acquisitions of five Wells Fargo
branches and the Bank of Pullman were the primary reason for the
growth of loans, securities and deposits. USBN also had loan
growth of approximately $41 million during the 12 months ended June
30, 1998 without the total from the Bank of Pullman acquisition.
Deposits grew approximately $20 million without the acquisitions of
the Wells Fargo branches and the Bank of Pullman.
The net interest margin to average earning assets was 5.89% and
6.14% for June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses grew 28% from June 30, 1997 to June
30, 1998, which represents 1.07% and .98% of total loans,
respectively. During second quarter 1998, USBN completed its
normal quarterly review of the adequacy of its allowance for loan
losses. The review, which took into account factors affecting the
loan portfolios, including problem loans, economic conditions, loss
experience, and the quality of the underlying collateral value,
resulted in an increase of $57,000 to earnings due to a reduction
of the allowance.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased 59% to $2,197,000 during the first six
months of 1998 compared to $1,384,000 for the same period in 1997.
Fees and service charges increased 24% to $721,000 in 1998 from
$583,000 in 1997 due primarily to deposit growth patterns.
Insurance commissions declined 7% compared to 1997.

<PAGE> 11
UNITED SECURITY BANCORPORATION
Other income included nonrecurring gains of $366,000 in first
quarter 1998 for the sale of land and $163,000 for the sale of
merchant bank card portfolio in second quarter 1998. 1997 results
included losses on the sale of securities as USBN improved the
yield on its securities portfolio. 1998 results included gains on
the sale of securities as USBN obtained liquidity for its loan
portfolio growth. Securities outstanding were lower by $16.5
million since the end of the year.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased by 53% in 1998 compared to 1997 due
primarily to the increased costs from the 1997 acquisitions. USBN
has increased its number of locations from 10 to 24. The number of
employees has increased from 142 to 212. In addition nonrecurring
regulatory, accounting, and professional expenses of $104,000 were
incurred during second quarter 1998 related to the acquisition of
Grant National Bank.
