              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         This quarterly report contains or incorporates by reference certain
forward-looking statements by the Company. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. The accompanying financial information for Eldorado Bancshares, Inc.
("ELBI" or the "Company") has been prepared in accordance with the Securities
and Exchange Commission rules and regulations for quarterly reporting and
therefore does not necessarily include all information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. The interim financial data is unaudited;
however, in the opinion of management, the interim data includes all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a
fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Certain reclassifications
have been made in the 1998 financial information to conform to the presentation
used in 1999. Results for the period ending March 31, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of results which may be expected for any other interim period or for
the year as a whole. The information contained in this report should be read in
conjunction with the Annual Report of ELBI on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and in particular the footnotes to the audited financial
statements included therewith.

         On January 22, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of 
Antelope Valley Bank. In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued 
to the shareholders of Antelope Valley Bank approximately 2.8 million shares 
of common stock. The acquisition was treated for accounting purposes as a 
pooling of interests. Accordingly, the financial information for prior 
periods contained herein has been restated to reflect the combined entities

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

         In the normal course of its business, the Company encounters two
significant types of risk: economic and regulatory. Economic risk is comprised
of three components - interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk. The
Company is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing
liabilities mature and reprice at different speeds, or on a different basis,
than its interest-bearing assets. Credit risk is the risk of default on the
Company's loan portfolio that results from the borrower's inability or
unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk results from
changes in the value of assets and liabilities which may impact, favorably or
unfavorably, the reliability of those assets and liabilities.

         The Company is subject to the regulations of various governmental
agencies. These regulations can and do change significantly from period to
period. The Company is also subject to periodic examinations by the regulatory
agencies, which may subject it to changes in asset valuations, in amounts of
required loss allowances and in operating restrictions resulting from the
regulators' judgments based on information available to them at the time of
their examination.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

         The number of common shares outstanding at March 31, 1999 was
12,036,457. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income less
dividends paid to preferred shareholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives
effect to all potential issuances of common stock that would have caused basic
earnings per share to be lower, as if the issuances had already occurred.

         At March 31, 1999, the Company had outstanding common stock purchase
warrants entitling the holders to purchase a total of 2,241,217 shares of common
stock and stock options entitling the holder to



                                       8
<PAGE>


purchase a total of 536,300 shares of common stock. The Company's stock was
listed on NASDAQ as of February 1, 1999. The Company estimated an average
trading price per share of $11.00 in computing the diluted impact of the
outstanding warrants and options for the three months ended March 31, 1999.

         The weighted average number of common shares used to compute basic 
earnings per share were 12,015,428 and 11,950,429 for the quarter ended March 
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The average number of common shares used to 
compute diluted earnings per share was 12,333,657 and 12,451,710 for the 
quarter ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

         Effective January 1998, the company adopted Statement of Financial 
Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This 
statement requires that all items recognized under accounting standards as 
components of comprehensive income be reported in an annual financial 
statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other annual 
financial statements. This Statement also requires that an entity classify 
items of other comprehensive income by their nature in an annual financial 
statement. For example, other comprehensive income may include foreign 
currency translation adjustments, minimum pension liability adjustments, and 
unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities classified as 
available-for-sale. The Company's total comprehensive income was as follows:

OPERATING SEGMENTS

         The Company has determined that its reportable segments are the
operations pertaining to mortgage banking ("Mortgage") and the operations
pertaining to commercial and consumer banking ("Commercial and Consumer").
Commercial and Consumer includes the operations of the Company's equipment
leasing division. The segment labeled "Other" primarily consists of the
Company's administrative function which is responsible for investment and
borrowing activities and other administrative services. The financial results of
the Company's operating segments are presented on an accrual basis. There are no
significant differences among the accounting policies of the segments as
compared to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company
evaluates the performance of its segments based on net interest income,
non-interest income, net income and total assets. Funds are allocated as needed
from Commercial Banking to Mortgage at a rate comparable to the federal funds
rate.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

         This information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto of Eldorado Bancshares Inc. ("ELBI"
or the "Company") included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and the audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and Management Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the year ended
December 31, 1998 contained in the 1998 Annual Report of ELBI on Form 10-K.

         Except for the historical information contained herein, the following
discussion contains forward looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. ELBI's actual results could differ materially from those
discussed here. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences
include, but are not specifically limited to, changes in regulatory climate,
shifts in interest rate environment, change in economic conditions of various
markets ELBI serves, as well as the other risks detailed in this section, and in
the sections entitled Results of Operations, Capital Resources and Liquidity and
Interest Sensitivity, and those discussed in ELBI's Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1998, including without limitation those sections entitled
Supervision and Regulation, Capital Resources and Liquidity.

         Contained within this document are various measures of financial
performance that have been calculated excluding the amortization of intangibles.
These measures are identified as "excluding goodwill amortization" and have been
provided to assist the reader in evaluating the core performance of the Company.
This presentation is not defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
("GAAP"), but management believes it to be beneficial to gaining an
understanding of the Company's financial performance in comparison to its peer
group.

         Prior to September 1995, the predecessor to the Company, SDN Bancorp,
Inc., owned a single bank, San Dieguito National Bank ("San Dieguito"), with
approximately $56 million in assets. At that time, San Dieguito was categorized
as "critically undercapitalized" by federal regulators. In September 1995, SDN
and San Dieguito were recapitalized by Dartmouth Capital Group, L.P. ("DCG"), a
bank holding company organized by Mr. Keller. Following the recapitalization,
Mr. Keller assumed control of the Company, installed new management and began
implementing policies and improve the Company's asset quality and operating
performance.

         Since September 1995, Eldorado has acquired four banks in California
with combined assets of approximately $1.0 billion. The following table
summarizes certain data regarding those acquisitions, including the assets size
of the acquired bank as of the end of the quarter immediately preceding the
acquisition.

</TABLE>

         Other than the Antelope transaction, each acquisition was accounted 
for using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. 
Effective June 30, 1997, the Company consolidated into Eldorado Bank the 
respective operations of San Dieguito, Liberty National Bank and Commerce 
Security Bank. Antelope Valley Bank continues to operate as a separate 
subsidiary of the Company.

         Through its two operating subsidiaries, Eldorado Bank and Antelope
Valley Bank (collectively referred to as the "Banks"), the Company offers a
broad range of commercial banking products and services to small and
medium-sized businesses and retail customers from 24 full service offices
located primarily in Southern California and the Sacramento area of Northern
California. Eldorado also operates

eight loan production offices, four of which are located in California and four
of which are located in other western states.

SUBSEQUENT EVENT

         In April 1999, in an underwriting managed by Keefe, Bruyette & Woods
Inc., the Company completed the public offering of an aggregate of 2,286,400
shares of Common Stock. The net proceeds to the Company were equal to $21.3
million. The company used $12.0 million to redeem all of its outstanding 11%
Series B Preferred Stock with an aggregate liquidation value of $11.7 million.
In addition, the company repaid indebtedness in the amount of $338,000 to one of
its principal shareholders, DCG. The remaining net proceeds of the offering will
be used for general purposes, including investment in the Banks, which will
enable the Banks to increase their interest-earning assets.

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998

OVERVIEW

         The Company generated net income of $1.4 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999. This represents a decrease of $738,000, or 34.7%, over net
income of $2.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in net
income resulted primarily from an increase in non-interest expense partially
offset by an increase in non-interest income and a reduction in the provision
for loan and lease losses. Contributing to the increase in operating expenses
was the costs associated with the acquisition of Antelope Valley Bank.

         The table below summarizes basic and diluted earnings per share data:

the quarter ended March 31, 1999, compared to a return of 7.49% for the quarter
ended March 31, 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME AND NET INTEREST MARGIN

         Net interest income, the difference between the interest income
generated from interest-earning assets and the interest paid for
interest-bearing liabilities, continues to be the Company's primary source of
revenue. The Company's net interest income totaled $13.5 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1999. This represented a decrease of $200,000, or 1.5%, from net
interest income of $13.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The
decrease resulted as the $1.4 million increase in total interest expense was
greater than the $1.2 million increase in total interest income. The increase in
interest expense was the result of an increase in the level of interest bearing
liabilities partially offset by a decrease in the average cost of interest
bearing liabilities. The increase in total interest income was the result of an
increase in average earning assets partially offset by a decrease in the yield
on average earning assets.

         The net interest margin is equal to the net interest income for the
quarter, annualized and then expressed as a percent of average earning assets.
The Company's net interest margin decreased to 4.95% for the quarter ended March
31, 1999, compared to 6.24% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The decrease
in the net interest margin was a result of a decrease in the yield on earning
assets combined with a smaller decrease in the cost of interest bearing
liabilities.

         For the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company generated total
interest income of $22.2 million, on average earning assets of $1.1 billion
resulting in an average yield of 8.15%. This compares to total interest income
of $21.0 million, on average earning assets of $889.0 million resulting in an
average yield of 9.56% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The $1.2 million,
or 5.9%, increase in total interest income resulted as the increase in average
earning assets was proportionately greater than the decrease in the yield on
average earning assets. A 75 basis point decrease in the prime lending rate in
the fourth quarter of 1998 and a greater concentration of earning assets
allocated to the mortgage loans held for sale, which typically have lower
yields, contributed to the decrease in the yield on average earning assets for
the most recent quarter.

         For the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company's interest expense
totaled $8.7 million, on average interest bearing liabilities of $855.1 million,
for an average cost of 4.13%. This compares to total interest expense of $7.3
million, from average interest bearing liabilities of $678.8 million, for an
average cost of 4.35% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase in the
average interest bearing liabilities was the result of greater reliance on time
deposits and title company related savings deposits for the most recent quarter.

         The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the
distribution of average assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity, as well as
the total dollar amounts of interest income from average interest-bearing assets
and the resultant yields, and the dollar amounts of interest expense and
resultant cost expressed in both dollars and rates. Nonaccrual loans are
included in the calculation of the average loans while nonaccrued interest
thereon is excluded from the computation of rates earned.

PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

         The Company maintains an allowance for potential credit losses. A
provision for credit losses is charged to the Company's earnings sufficient to
maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level determined adequate for each
Bank. The provision for credit losses totaled $780,000 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999. This represents a decrease of $412,000, or 34.6%, from the
provision for loan and lease losses of $1.2 million for the quarter ended March
31, 1998. For the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company charged to its
allowance for loan and leases losses a total of $756,000. This represented a
decrease of $2.0 million, or 72.8%, from net loans and leases charged to the
reserves of $2.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

         Non-interest income totaled $6.5 million for the quarter ended March
31, 1999. This represents an increase of $790,000, or 14.0%, over non-interest
income of $5.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase in
non-interest income was primarily the result of an increase in the gain on sale
of loans. The gain on the sale of loans increased $593,000, or 23.5%, to $3.1
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, from $2.5 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1998. The increase in the gain on sale of loans primarily
reflects an increase in the volume of mortgage loans sold. Other non-interest
income increased by $255,000, or 29.8%, to $1.1 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999. The increase in other non-interest income is attributable to
gains recognized on the sale of available-for-sale investment securities.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

         Non-interest expense totaled $16.1 million for the quarter ended March
31, 1999. This represents an increase of $2.0 million, or 14.2%, from total
non-interest expenses of $14.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
Contributing to the increase in non-interest expense was approximately $815,000
in costs resulting from the acquisition of Antelope Valley Bank. These costs
primarily reflect severance, legal and other professional expenses associated
with the acquisition. Excluding the expenses related to the acquisition,
non-interest expenses totaled $15.3 million, representing an increase of $1.2
million, or 8.4%, over total non-interest expense for the first quarter of 1998.

         The Company's efficiency ratio, operating expenses less goodwill 
divided by net revenue, was 75.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, 
compared to a ratio of 68.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. Excluding 
the costs associated with the acquisition, the Company's efficiency ratio 
totaled 71.4% for the most recent quarter. A proportionately greater increase 
in non-interest expenses, primarily expenses for salaries and employee 
benefits, than the increase in net revenue, resulted in the increase in the 
efficiency ratio for the first quarter of this year.

         Salaries and employee benefits totaled $7.9 million for the quarter 
ended March 31, 1999. This represents an increase of $1.7 million, or 26.9%, 
over salaries and employee benefits of $6.2 million for the quarter ended 
March 31, 1998. The increase is primarily the result of increased commissions 
and variable compensation paid for the origination of mortgage loans. Also 
included as salaries and employee benefits for the quarter ended March 31, 
1999, is approximately $270,000 of severance expenses resulting from the 
acquisition of Antelope Valley Bank.

         The following table presents for the periods indicated the major
categories of non-interest expense:

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

         For the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company recorded a provision
for income taxes of $1.7 million, compared to a provision of $1.9 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The Company's effective tax rate (54.7%) is
higher than the applicable statutory rate (42.0%), primarily because the
goodwill amortization is a charge to earnings for financial statement purposes
and is not deductible for federal income tax purposes.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

         At March 31, 1999, the Company had total assets of $1.3 billion. This
represents a decrease of $122.0 million, or 8.8%, from total assets of $1.4
billion at December 31, 1998. The decrease in total assets primarily reflects
reductions in mortgage loans held for sale, investment securities and cash and
due from banks.

LOANS AND LEASES

         Net loans and leases totaled $810.6 million at March 31, 1999. This 
represented a decrease of $71.1 million, or 8.1%, from net loans of $881.7 
million at December 31, 1998. The decrease in net loans was the result of a 
decrease in mortgage loans held for sale of $80.7 million, or 32.4%, to 
$168.2 million at March 31, 1999, from $248.8 million at December 31, 1998. 
Excluding mortgage loans held for sale, total loans and leases increased to 
$663.1 million at March 31, 1999. This represents an increase of $9.0 
million, or 1.4%, over a total of $654.1 million at December 31, 1998. The 
decrease in mortgage loans held for sale was primarily the result of 
anticipated seasonal fluctuations in the demand for the origination of 
mortgage loans. By comparison, mortgage loans held for sale totaled $181.3 
million at March 31, 1998.

         Excluding the mortgage loans held for sale, at March 31, 1999, the four
largest lending categories were: (i) commercial real estate loans, (ii)
commercial loans, (iii) loans to individuals and (iv) lease financings. The
following table sets forth the amount of loans and leases outstanding for the
Company as of the dates indicated, according to type of loan, inclusive of
mortgage loans held for sale. The Company has no foreign loans or energy-related
loans.

</TABLE>

         For regulatory and financial reporting purposes, the Company
categorizes commercial loans that are secured in whole or part by real estate as
commercial real estate loans. The Company believes such categorization
overstates the Company's emphasis on real estate lending, because, for example,
all SBA



                                       17
<PAGE>


loans are secured by real estate and thus categorized as commercial real estate
loans. As of March 31, 1999 SBA loans totaled $87.8 million.

         The following table shows the amounts of certain categories of loans
outstanding as of March 31, 1999, which, based on remaining scheduled repayments
of principal, were due in one year or less, more than one year through five
years, and more than five years. Demand or other loans having no stated maturity
and no stated schedule of repayments are reported as due in one year or less.
Residential mortgage loans held for sale are reported as due after five years.

         The Company's current policy is to stop accruing interest on loans
which are past due as to principal or interest 90 days or more, except in
circumstances where the loan is well-secured and in the process of collection.
When a loan is placed on nonaccrual, previously accrued and unpaid interest is
generally reversed out of income.

For the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, additional gross interest income
of $311,000 and $270,000, respectively would have been recorded on impaired
loans, in each case had the loans been 


                                       18

current. No accrued but unpaid income on such loans was in fact included in 
the Company's net income as of March 31, 1999 and 1998.

         The Company's impaired loans pursuant to SFAS 114 as amended by SFAS
118 are loans that are nonaccrual and those that have been restructured. Loans
aggregating $12.8 million at March 31, 1999 were designated as impaired. The
Company's impaired loans are all collateral dependent, and as such, the method
used to measure the amount of impairment on these loans is to compare the loan
amount to the fair value of collateral. In calculating the allowance for loan
and lease losses that was required under the Company's internal guidelines,
management determined that a minimum of $1.6 million should be included in the
allowance at March 31, 1999 because of the risk to the loan and lease portfolio
represented by such impaired loans. At December 31, 1998, loans aggregating $9.8
million were designated as impaired and management determined that a minimum of
$1.3 million should be included in the allowance because of the risk to the
loans and lease portfolio represented by such impaired loans.

         Management is not aware of any loan that had not been placed on
nonaccrual status as of March 31, 1999 for which there was a serious doubt as to
the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms.

         At March 31, 1999 the Company had OREO properties with an aggregate
carrying value of $1.1 million. This represents a decrease of $460,000, or
29.1%, from OREO of $1.6 million at December 31, 1998. During the quarter ended
March 31, 1999, properties with a total carrying value of $425,000 were sold
resulting in a loss of $34,000.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

         The allowance for loan and lease losses was $9.2 million at March 31,
1999. This represents a decrease of $24,000, or 0.3%, from the allowance for
loan and leases losses at December 31, 1998. As a percent of portfolio loans,
the allowance for loan and lease losses remained constant at 1.4% from December
31, 1998 to March 31, 1999.

         In allocating the Company's allowance for possible loan and leases 
losses, management has considered the credit risk in the various loan 
categories in its portfolio. While the Company has made a reasonable effort 
to allocate the allowance to specific categories of loans, management 
believes that any allocation of the allowance for possible loan and lease 
losses into loan categories lends an appearance of exactness which does not 
exist, in that the allowance for possible loan and lease losses is utilized 
as a single unallocated allowance available for losses on all types of loans 
and leases, and actual losses in loan categories may vary from the amounts 
allocated to such categories.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

         Investment securities totaled $221.6 million at March 31, 1999. This
represents a decrease of $28.9 million, or 11.5%, over total investment
securities of $250.5 million at December 31, 1998. The decrease in investment
securities primarily reflects the decrease in interest bearing deposits between
the two periods. The investment portfolio primarily consists of bonds and notes
issued by the U.S. Treasury and U.S. government agencies, state and municipal
securities agencies, and mortgage-backed securities. At March 31, 1999 and 1998,
all of the Company's investments were classified as available-for-sale. The

securities at March 31, 1999 were as follows:

DEPOSITS

         Total deposits were $1.1 billion at March 31, 1999. This represents a
decrease of $123.7 million, or 10.1%, from total deposits of $1.2 billion at
December 31, 1998. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in
interest bearing deposits. Interest bearing deposits totaled $792.9 million at
March 31, 1999, representing a decrease of $114.7 million, or 12.6%. The
decrease in interest bearing deposits reflects a decrease in the Company's
reliance on time deposits and savings deposits pertaining to title companies.
Non-interest bearing deposits totaled $304.9 million at March 31, 1999. This
represents a decrease of $9.0 million, or 2.9%, from total non-interest bearing
deposits of $313.9 million at December 31, 1998. The decrease in non-interest
bearing deposits primarily reflects lower title company deposits at March 31,
1999.

BORROWINGS

         Other borrowed funds totaled $33.5 million at March 31, 1999. This
represents a decrease of $424,000, or 1.3%, from total borrowed funds of $33.9
million at December 31, 1998. The decrease was primarily the result of lower
federal funds purchased at March 31, 1999 compared to December 31, 1998.


CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Current regulatory capital standards generally require banks and
holding companies to maintain a ratio of "core" or "Tier 1" capital (consisting
principally of common equity) to adjusted total assets ("Tier 1 Leverage Ratio")
of at least 3%, a ratio of Tier 1 Capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4%
("Tier 1 Risk-Weighted Ratio"), and a ratio of total capital (which includes
Tier 1 capital plus certain forms of subordinated debt, a portion of the
allowance for loan and lease losses and preferred stock) to risk-weighted assets
("Total Risk-Weighted Ratio") of at least 8%. Risk-weighted assets are
calculated by multiplying the balance in each category of assets according to a
risk factor which ranges from zero for cash assets and certain government
obligations to 100% for some types of loans and adding the products together.

         The Company and its subsidiary banks were well capitalized at March 31,
1999 for federal regulatory purposes. At March 31, 1999, the Company and
subsidiary banks had a leverage ratio, Tier 1 risk weighted ratio and total
risk-weighted capital ratio as follows:

</TABLE>


LIQUIDITY

         The Company relies on deposits as its principal source of funds and,
therefore, must be in a position to service depositors' needs as they arise.
Management attempts to maintain a loan-to-deposit ratio of not greater than 80%
and a liquidity ratio (liquid assets, including cash and due from banks, Federal
funds sold and investment securities, to deposits) of approximately 20%. The
average loan-to-deposit ratio was 77.2% for the quarter ended March 31, 1999.
This represents a decrease from an average loan to deposit ratio of 84.8% for
the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The average liquidity ratio was 31.3% for the
quarter ended March 31, 1999, compared to an average liquidity ratio of 24.0%
for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. While fluctuations in the balances of a
few large depositors cause temporary increases and decreases in liquidity from
time to time, the Company has not experienced difficulty in dealing with such
fluctuations from existing liquidity sources.

         Should the level of liquid assets (primary liquidity) not meet the
liquidity needs of the Company, other available sources of liquid assets
(secondary liquidity), including the purchase of Federal funds, sale of
securities under agreements to repurchase, sale of loans, window borrowing from
the Federal Reserve Bank and, borrowings from the FHLB, could be utilized. The
Company has relied primarily upon the purchase of Federal funds and the sale of
securities under agreements to repurchase for secondary sources of liquidity. At
March 31, 1999, the Company had $100.0 million of unused borrowing capacity
under FHLB advances. In order to borrow from the Federal Reserve, the Company
would be required to physically deliver to the Federal Reserve collateral
consisting of marketable Government securities. At March 31, 1999, the Company
has no such collateral at the Federal Reserve.

YEAR 2000 PREPAREDNESS

         The Year 2000 issue is a computer programming concern that may affect
many electronic processing systems. Until relatively recently, in order to
minimize the length of data fields, most computer programs eliminated the first
two digits of the year. This problem could affect computers leaving them unable
to distinguish dates in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. For example,
date-sensitive


                                       23
<PAGE>


calculations that treat "00" as the year 1900, rather than 2000. Secondly, years
that end in "00" are not leap years, except for an anomaly in the year 2000.
This anomaly could result in miscalculations when processing critical
date-sensitive information relating to periods after December 31, 1999.

         The Year 2000 issue may adversely affect the Company's information
technology systems, such as its item and data processing applications. The Year
2000 issue also may affect so-called embedded technology, such as
microprocessors that control some of the Company's security systems and
telecommunication equipment.

         The Company has determined that a few of its computer software
applications will need to be modified or replaced in order to maintain their
functionality as the year 2000 approaches. In response, a plan has been
developed that provides for the assessment of its material internal systems,
programs and data processing applications as well as those provided to the Bank
by third-party vendors. The Company expects that system conversions and testing
will be completed by June 30, 1999. Based upon the Company's evaluation of its
Year 2000 preparedness, management does not expect that the Year 2000 issue as
it relates to information systems and embedded technology that are within the
Company's direct control will have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition or results of operations. However, Year 2000
problems may turn out to exist in portions of computer programs not now
suspected, and there can be no assurance that the Company will not be adversely
affected by this problem.

         Ultimately, the potential impact of the Year 2000 issue will depend not
only on the corrective measures the Company undertakes, but also on the way in
which the Year 2000 issue is addressed by governmental agencies, businesses and
other entities who provide data to, or receive data from the Bank or whose
financial condition or operational capability is important to the Company such
as significant suppliers or customers. Communications with significant customers
and vendors have been initiated to determine the extent of risk created by those
third parties' failure to remediate their own Year 2000 issues; however, it is
not possible, at present, to determine the financial effect if a significant
customer's and/or vendor's remediation efforts are not completed in a timely
manner.

         In addition, because the Company's day-to-day operations are heavily
dependent on its ability to communicate information throughout its network of
branches and loan production offices, the Company would be particularly
susceptible to any possible effects that the Year 2000 issue has on local and
national communications systems, including without limitation, telephone and
data lines, because of the difficulty in implementing viable contingency plans.
Any interruption or malfunction of such systems could have a material adverse
effect on the Company.

         Furthermore, bank regulatory agencies, as part of their supervisory
function, have recently issued guidance under which they are assessing and will
assess Year 2000 readiness. The failure of a financial institution, such as the
Company, to take appropriate steps to address deficiencies in its Year 2000
project management process may result in one or more regulatory enforcement
actions which could have a material adverse effect on such institution. Such
actions may include the imposition of civil money penalties, or result in the
delay or denial of regulatory applications.

         From January 1, 1998 through March 31, 1999, the Company has 
incurred $325,000 addressing Year 2000 issues. The Company estimates its 
total costs through December 31, 1999 will be less than $500,000, and none of 
those costs are expected to materially affect the Company's results of 
operations in any one reporting period. In light of the complexity of the 
Year 2000 problem and its potential effect on both the Company and third 
parties that interact with the Company, however, there can be no assurance 
that the Company's costs associated with the Year 2000 issue will be as 
estimated. The Company does not intend to obtain insurance against any Year 
2000 risks.

ITEM 3. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

         In Management's opinion there has not been a material change in the
Company's market risk profile during the quarter ended March 31, 1999. Market
risk is the risk of loss in a financial instrument arising from adverse changes
in market prices and rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices
and equity prices. The Company's market risk arises primarily from interest rate
risk inherent in its lending and deposit taking activities. To that end,
management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure. The
Company does not have any market risk sensitive instruments acquired for trading
purposes. The Company manages its interest rate sensitivity by matching the
repricing opportunities on its earning assets to those on its funding
liabilities. Management uses various asset/liability strategies to manage the
repricing characteristics of its assets and liabilities to ensure that exposure
to interest rate fluctuations is limited within Company guidelines of acceptable
levels of risk-taking. Hedging strategies, including the terms and pricing of
loans and deposits, and managing the deployment of its securities are used to
reduce mismatches in interest rate repricing opportunities of portfolio assets
and their funding sources.

         When appropriate, management may utilize off balance sheet instruments
such as interest rate floors, caps and swaps to hedge its interest rate
position. A Board of Directors approved hedging policy statement governs use of
these instruments. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had not utilized any
interest rate swap or other such financial derivative to alter its interest rate
risk profile.

         One way to measure the impact that future changes in interest rates
will have on net interest income is through a cumulative gap measure. The gap
represents the net position of assets and liabilities subject to repricing in
specified time periods. Generally, a liability sensitive gap position indicates
that there would be a net positive impact on the net interest margin of the
Company for the period measured in a declining interest rate environment since
the Company's liabilities would reprice to lower market rates before its assets
would. A net negative impact would result from an increasing interest rate
environment. Conversely, an asset sensitive gap indicates that there would be a
net positive impact on the net interest margin in a rising interest rate
environment since the Company's assets would reprice to higher market interest
rates before its liabilities would, while a net negative impact would result
from a declining rate environment.

         The following table sets forth the distribution of repricing
opportunities of the Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, the interest rate sensitivity gap (i.e., interest rate sensitive
assets less interest rate sensitive liabilities), cumulative interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the cumulative interest rate
sensitivity gap, the ratio of cumulative interest-earning assets to cumulative
interest-bearing liabilities and the cumulative gap as a percentage of total
assets and total interest-earning assets as of March 31, 1999. The table also
sets forth the time periods during which interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities will mature or may reprice in accordance with their
contractual terms. The interest rate relationships between the repriceable
assets and repriceable liabilities are not necessarily constant and may be
affected by many factors, including the behavior of customers in response to
changes in interest rates. This table should, therefore, be used only as a guide
as to the possible effect changes in interest rates might have on the net
margins of the Company.

         At March 31, 1999, the Company had $584.9 million of assets and $786.1
million of liabilities repricing within one year. Therefore, $201.2 million more
in interest rate sensitive liabilities than interest rate sensitive assets will
change to the then current rate (changes occur due to the instruments being at a
variable rate or because the maturity of the instrument requires its replacement
at the then current rate). If rates were to fall during this period, interest
expense would decline by a greater amount than interest income and net income
would increase. Conversely, if rates were to rise, the reverse would apply, and
the Company's net income would decrease.

         Since interest rate changes do not affect all categories of assets and
liabilities equally or simultaneously, a cumulative gap analysis alone cannot be
used to evaluate the Company's interest rate sensitivity position. To supplement
traditional gap analysis, the Company performs simulation modeling to estimate
the potential effects of changing interest rates. The process allows the Company
to explore the complex relationships within the gap over time and various
interest rate environments. Based upon the Company's interest rate shock
simulations, net interest income is expected to decrease approximately 1.5% with
a 200 basis point instantaneous increase to interest rates and increase
approximately 1.3% with a 200 basis point instantaneous decrease in rates.
Management has a target of minimizing the decline in net interest income to no
more than 4.0% given a 200 basis point instantaneous decrease in rates

         The preceding sensitivity analysis does not represent a forecast and
should not be relied upon as being indicative of expected operating results.
These hypothetical estimates are based upon numerous assumptions, including the
nature and timing of interest rate levels including the shape of the yield curve
prepayments on loans and securities, changes in deposit levels, pricing
decisions on loans and deposits, reinvestment and replacement of asset and
liability cashflows and others. While assumptions are developed based upon
current economic and local market conditions, the Company cannot make any
assurances as to the predictive nature of these assumptions including how
customer preferences or competitor influences might change.

         Also, as market conditions vary from those assumed in the sensitivity
analysis, actual results will also differ because of prepayment and refinancing
levels likely deviating from those assumed, the varying impact of interest rate
change caps or floors on adjustable rate loans, depositor withdrawals and
product preference changes, and other internal and external variables.
Furthermore, the sensitivity analysis does not reflect actions that management
might take in responding to or anticipating changes in interest rates.

         Management has taken several steps to reduce the positive gap of the
Company by lengthening the maturities in its investment portfolio and
originating more fixed-rate assets that mature or reprice in balance with its
interest bearing liabilities. Management will continue to maintain a balance
between its interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities in order to
minimize the impact on net interest income due to changes in market rates.

                    PART II - OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION    


ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         Eldorado Bank was a defendant in an action initiated in 1994 by several
employees who alleged, among other things, that a subsidiary of the Company
wrongfully terminated their employment in connection with its 1994 closure of
the Stockton, California office. Their complaint alleged, among other things,
that Eldorado Bank terminatd their employment as a result of their having
reported violations of consumer lending laws committed by another employee of
the Stockton office and sought compensatory and punitive damages. Eldorado Bank
settled such claim with the plaintiffs in January 1999 without admitting any
liability.

ITEM 2.  CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

         On January 22, 1999, the Company issued 86,029 shares of Common Stock
to Robert P. Keller, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
pursuant to the terms of Mr. Keller's employment agreement with the Company. The
Company's issuance of those shares was exempt from registration under the
Securities Act by virtue of Regulation D thereunder and/or Section 4(2) thereof.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         On January 28, 1999, pursuant to stockholder action by written 
consent in lieu of special meeting, the stockholders of the Company voted to 
authorize the amendment of the company's Certificate of Incorporation, 
contingent upon the completion of the offering described below, to eliminate 
the Series B Preferred Stock, the Voting Special Common Stock and the 
Non-Voting Special Common Stock and to redesignate the Class B Common Stock 
as "Common Stock" and the Class C Common Stock as the "Non-Voting Common 
Stock." An aggregate of 6,148,873 shares (a majority of the Common Stock 
outstanding) was voted in favor of the amendment. As such stockholder vote 
was taken by written consent, no shares were voted against the amendment or 
withheld from voting.

ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

         On April 12, 1999, in an underwritten offering managed by Keefe,
Bruyette & Woods Inc., a total of 1,909,900 shares of Common Stock, including
259,900 shares sold by selling shareholders, were sold to the public at a price
of $10.00 per share. The price received by the Company and the selling
shareholders net of the underwriting discount was $9.30 per share. Concurrently
with the underwritten offering, the Company sold 350,000 shares of Common Stock
to several of its directors and principal shareholders at a price of $9.30 per
share. On April 30, 1999, Keefe, Bruyette & Woods Inc. exercised its over
allotment option to purchase 286,400 shares at the public offering price of $10
per share less the underwriting discount.
