     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     NOTE 1.

     The financial information given in the accompanying unaudited
     consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which in
     the opinion of management, are necessary to a fair statement for the
     periods reported. Certain 1996 amounts have been reclassified to
     conform with the 1997 presentation.  These reclassifications had no
     effect on the net income or retained earnings as previously reported. 
     The results of operations for the nine-month period ended 
     September 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results to
     be expected for the full year.  These unaudited financial statements
     should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited
     financial statements.

     NOTE 2.

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
     Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Source Capital Leasing Co. 
     All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
     eliminated in consolidation.

     NOTE 3.

     The Company's provision for federal income taxes for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, is calculated using the statutory
     corporate income tax rate of 34%.  The actual current income tax
     liability to the Company for the year ending December 31, 1997, is
     estimated to be significantly less than the statutory corporate tax
     rate, after considering the Company's net operating loss carryovers. 
     Notwithstanding the foregoing statement the Company's actual tax
     liability paid for the year ended December 31, 1996 resulted in an
     effective tax rate of approximately 31%.

     NOTE 4.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company's
     subsidiary, Source Capital Leasing Co. entered into several direct
     financing leases for equipment as lessor.

     The following lists the components of the Company's net investment in
     leases, which are included in loans and leases receivable on the
     consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 1997:

       Minimum lease payments receivable                       $1,891,608  
       Estimated unguaranteed residual values of 
         leased property                                          105,136
       Less unearned finance income                              (546,601)

       Net investment in direct financing leases               $1,450,142

     NOTE 5.

     In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB")
     issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131,
     Disclosures about Segments for an Enterprise and Related Information
     ("SFAS 131").  This Statement will change the way public companies
     report information about segments of their business in their annual
     financial statements and requires them to report selected segment
     information in their quarterly reports issued to shareholders.  It
     also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services
     an entity provides, and its major customers.  The Statement is
     effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.  The 
     Company has not yet determined the effect, if any, of SFAS 131 on
     its consolidated financial statements.

     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
     Income.  This Statement requires that comprehensive income be reported
     in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as
     other financial statements.  This Statement does not require a
     specific format for the financial statement, but requires that an
     enterprise display net income as a component of comprehensive income
     in the financial statement.  Comprehensive income is defined as the
     change in equity of a business enterprise arising from non-owner
     sources. The classifications of comprehensive income under current
     accounting standards include foreign currency items, minimum pension
     liability adjustments, and unrealized gains and losses on certain
     investments in debt and equity securities.  This Statement will affect
     the Company's reporting of unrealized gains and losses on investment
     securities requiring reporting of this item on the financial statement
     that reports comprehensive income.  Management has not yet determined
     which format it will choose to display comprehensive income.  This
     Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
     1997.

     In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share
     ("SFAS 128").  SFAS 128 establishes standards for computing and
     presenting earnings per share ("EPS") and simplifies the existing
     standards.  This Standard replaces the presentation of primary EPS
     with a presentation of basic EPS.  It also requires the dual
     presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income
     statement for all entities with complex capital structures and
     requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the
     basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted
     EPS computation.  SFAS 128 is effective for financial statements
     issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, including interim
     periods and requires restatement of all prior-period EPS data
     presented.  The Company does not believe the application of this
     standard will have a material effect on the presentation of its basic
     and diluted EPS.

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

     GENERAL
     -------
     The discussions contain some forward-looking statements.  A forward-
     looking statement may contain words such as "will continue to be,"
     "will be," "continue to," "anticipates that," "to be," or "can
     impact."  Management cautions that forward-looking statements are
     subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company's
     actual results to differ materially from those projected in forward-
     looking statements.

     Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Nine Months ended
     September 30, 1996
     ------------------------------------------------------------------
     For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company reported a
     net income of $529,201 or $.38 per share. These results compare to a
     net income of $432,521 or $.30 per share, for the comparable period in
     1996.  Net interest and lease income (interest and lease income less
     interest expense) increased by approximately $495,000 as compared to
     the nine months ended September 30, 1996.  Interest and lease income
     of approximately $3,550,000 and $2,368,000 in the nine months ended
     September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, represents an approximate
     average interest yield of 16.1% and 16.7%, respectively, on the
     company's average earning assets.

     Total non-interest expenses increased approximately 39% over the first
     nine months of 1996 primarily from a 38% increase in salaries and
     benefits due to the addition of six new personnel.  Additionally other
     operating expenses increased by approximately $152,000 or 42% over the
     prior year.  Of the increase in other expense the most significant was
     a $59,000 increase in occupancy due to the Company's larger facilities
     in Seattle, the opening of an office in Portland, Oregon and the
     expansion of its Spokane facilities.  In addition the Company incurred
     additional expenses of approximately $21,000 for appraisal fees on
     various properties held as collateral on its loan portfolio.  The
     purpose of the appraisals was to allow the Company to increase its
     borrowing capacity on specific loans in its portfolio.  There were
     other increases and decreases in its operating expenses none of which
     is material when considered individually. 

     The Company's average earning asset portfolio grew from $18.9 million
     for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to approximately $29.4
     million at September 30, 1997.  The growth in the portfolio is
     directly attributable to the increase in production personnel and to a
     slight increase in the average term of the loan and lease portfolio. 
     At September 30, 1997 the Company had approximately $455,000 of non-
     performing loans in its portfolio.  These loans are well
     collateralized and management does not expect to incur a significant
     loss.  There were no non-performing leases at September 30, 1997.  The
     Company's reserve for loan and lease losses of approximately $212,000
     is considered adequate as of September 30, 1997.
     <PAGE>
     The recorded provision for income taxes of approximately $280,000 and
     $223,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
     respectively, is based on the statutory income tax rate of 34%.  The
     Company expects to pay current income taxes significantly less than
     the estimated tax provision for the year ended December 31, 1997, due
     to the utilization of net operating loss carryovers.  The Company's
     effective tax rate for taxes paid in 1996 was approximately 31%.

     Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended
     September 30, 1996
     --------------------------------------------------------------------
     For the three months ended September 30, 1997, the Company reported a
     net income of $201,281 or $.15 per share.  This compares to a net
     income of $171,450 or $.12 per share, for the comparable period in
     1996.  Net interest and lease income (interest and lease income less
     interest expense) increased from approximately $597,000 during the
     three months ended September 30, 1996 to approximately $748,000 for
     the comparable period in 1997, a 25% increase.  Interest and lease
     income of approximately $1,302,000 and $888,000 in 1997 and 1996,
     respectively, represents an approximate average interest yield of
     15.5% and 16.5%, respectively, on the Company's average earning
     assets.  The decrease in yield on the Company's loan and investment
     portfolio was primarily the result of repayment of several loans prior
     to maturity in the third quarter of 1996, which resulted in the
     recognition of a larger portion of deferred loan fees in that quarter
     as compared to 1997.  Additionally the Company sold a shopping center
     in the fourth quarter of 1996, which resulted in the replacement of
     rent income on the center with interest income on the loan, which the
     Company carries on the center.  The interest received on the loan in
     the third quarter of 1997 is significantly less than rent received on
     the center in the comparable period in 1996.

     The Company's average earning asset portfolio grew from approximately
     $21.6 million in the third quarter of 1996 to approximately $33.6
     million in the quarter ended September 30, 1997.  This growth was
     accomplished due to significant growth in the loan portfolio in the
     second half of 1996 and a near doubling of net loan production (new
     loan production less loan repayments) in the second quarter of 1997 as
     compared to 1996.

     The increase in interest and lease income for the quarter of
     approximately $414,000 was primarily due to the approximate $12
     million increase in average earning assets over the third quarter of
     1996.  The increase in revenue was partially offset by an increase in
     interest expense of approximately $263,000 due to increased borrowings
     to fund the increase in the loan portfolio.  The Company's cost of
     funds on average borrowings remained level at approximately 9.4% for
     the quarters ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. The Company was able
     to mitigate a general increase in interest rates by funding a portion
     of its loan portfolio using a "LIBOR" based rate, which is currently
     more attractive than a prime based rate. The Company's borrowing rates
     are variable based on prime and/or "LIBOR".  As a result of increased
     leverage (more borrowing related to funding increased lending
     activity), the decrease in yield and level cost of funds, net interest
     margin on earning assets (annualized interest and lease income, minus
     interest expense, divided by average earning assets for the quarter)
     decreased from 11.1% in 1996 to 8.9% for the quarter ended 
     September 30, 1997.
     <PAGE>
     At September 30, 1997 there were approximately $455,000 of loans in
     the Company's portfolio, which were considered non-performing.  This
     compares to approximately $1.1 million of non-performing loans at
     September 30, 1996.  These non-performing loans and approximately
     $556,000 of other real estate did not contribute to third quarter
     earnings.

     Non-interest operating expenses increased approximately $153,000 for
     the three months ended September 30, 1997 as compared to the third
     quarter of 1996.  The increase was primarily due to an increase of
     approximately $94,000 in salaries and benefits related to the addition
     of five personnel in the second quarter of 1997 and one additional
     person in the third quarter.  Three of the new employees are employed
     by the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Source Capital Leasing Co.
     and two are employed by Source Capital Finance Inc., the Company's
     second wholly owned subsidiary.  Both subsidiaries are virtually start
     up operations.  The leasing subsidiary lost a total of approximately
     $17,000 in the third quarter of 1997 (its second full quarter of
     operation) which is significantly less than had been expected.  Source
     Capital Finance began its actual operations in October 1997, prior to
     that time, during the organization phase, the employees were carried
     on the parent company's payroll.

     FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
     ---------------------------------
     At September 30, 1997, the Company had approximately $388,000 of cash
     and cash equivalents and $257,000 of investment securities.  Cash and
     cash equivalents increased by approximately $367,000 since December
     31, 1996. The Company's primary sources of cash during the first nine
     months of 1997 were approximately $12,857,000 from short-term
     borrowings, $6,497,000 loan repayments, $598,000 from operations and
     $477,000 from the sale of marketable securities.  The primary uses of
     cash during the first nine months of 1997 were approximately
     $14,764,000 of loan originations, $4,687,000 of repayment on short
     term borrowings, $398,000 open market repurchase and retirement, of
     common stock of the Company and $255,000 payment of dividends. 

     The Company's line of credit, which matures annually, was renewed and
     increased to $25,000,000 on May 1, 1997. The line matures April 30,
     1998.  At September 30, 1997, the Company had $21,150,000 outstanding
     under the line of credit.  In addition to the Company's line of
     credit, its wholly owned subsidiary, Source Capital Leasing Co., has a
     $4,000,000 line of credit to fund its lease portfolio.  The leasing
     Company had approximately $1,020,000 outstanding under its line.  The
     Company's line of credit cash provided from loan repayments, existing
     cash, and cash equivalents and investment securities will provide
     sufficient cash flows for the operating needs of the Company.

     NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
     -----------------------------
     In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB")
     issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") no. 131,
     Disclosures about Segments for an Enterprise and Related Information
     ("SFAS 131").  This Statement will change the way public companies

     effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.  The
     Company has not yet determined the effect, if any, of SFAS 131 on its
     consolidated financial statements.

     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive

     standard will have a material effect on the presentation of its basic
     and diluted EPS.   
     <PAGE>
     EFFECT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
     ---------------------------------------
     Interest rates on the Company's loan portfolio are subject to
     inflation as inflationary pressures affect prime interest rate.  At
     September 30, 1997, interest rates on approximately 93% of the
     Company's loan portfolio vary based on various indexes.  The remaining
     loans have fixed interest rates.  Loans with fixed rates and
     maturities of less than one year at September 30, 1997 are considered
     variable.
