                          FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

    Certain statements included in this Form 10-Q or in future filings by Bay
View Capital Corporation (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, in the Company's press releases or shareholder communications or in
oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer,
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and are
subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Any such forward-looking
statements should not be relied upon as predictions of future events. Certain
such forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as "believes," "expects," "may," "are expected to," "will,"
"will allow," "will continue," "will likely result," "should," "would be,"
"seeks," "intends," "plans," "projects," "estimates," or "anticipates," or
similar expressions or the negative thereof or other variations thereof or
comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. In
addition, all information included herein or therein with respect to projected
results of operations, financial condition, financial performance or other
financial or statistical matters constitutes such forward-looking statements.
Such forward-looking statements are necessarily dependent on assumptions, data
or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise and that may be incapable of being
realized and in some instances are based on consensus estimates of analysts not
affiliated with the Company. In that regard, the following factors, among
others, could cause actual results and other matters to differ materially from
those in such forward-looking statements: increases in defaults by borrowers and
other loan delinquencies; increases in the provision for loan losses; failure by
the Company to realize expected cost savings or revenue enhancements from the
merger with America First Eureka Holdings, Inc. ("AFEH"); deposit attrition,
customer loss or revenue loss; costs or difficulties related to the integration
of the businesses of the Company and AFEH and their respective subsidiaries; the
Company's ability to sustain or improve the performance of Bay View Credit,
Concord Growth Corporation, Ultra Funding, Inc., and AFEH; the ability to
identify suitable future acquisition candidates; changes in interest rates which
may, among other things, adversely affect net interest margins; competition in
the banking, financial services and related industries; government regulation
and tax matters; the outcome of pending or threatened legal or regulatory
disputes and proceedings; credit and other risks of lending and investment
activities; changes in conditions in the securities markets including the value
of the Company's common stock; and changes in regional and national business and
economic conditions and inflation. As a result of the foregoing, no assurance
can be given as to future results of operations or financial condition or as to
any other matters covered by any such forward-looking statements, and the
Company wishes to caution investors not to rely on any such forward-looking
statements. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any
obligation, to update any forward-looking statements to reflect occurrences or
unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

              The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Bay View Capital Corporation (the "Company"),
a Delaware corporation operating as a diversified financial services company,
and its subsidiaries. The Company's principal business activities consist of
operating three business platforms: a Banking Platform, a Consumer Finance
Platform and a Commercial Finance Platform. The Company operates these platforms
through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Bay View Bank ("BVB"), a federally
chartered capital stock savings bank, Concord Growth Corporation ("CGC"), a
California corporation operating as a commercial finance company, including its
asset-based lending division, Bay View Financial Corporation ("BVFC"), Bay View
Securitization Corporation ("BVSC"), a Delaware corporation formed for the
purpose of issuing asset-backed securities through a trust, and Regent Financial
Corporation ("Regent"), a California corporation providing item processing
services. Bay View Acceptance Corporation ("BVAC"), a subsidiary of BVB, is a
Nevada corporation operating as a consumer finance company through its wholly
owned subsidiaries, Bay View Credit ("BVC") and Ultra Funding, Inc. ("Ultra").
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

              The Company completed its acquisition of America First Eureka
Holdings, Inc. ("AFEH") and its wholly owned subsidiary, EurekaBank, a federal
savings bank, on January 2, 1998. The Company's results for the first quarter of
1998 reflect the acquisition of AFEH, which was accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting.

              The information provided by these interim financial statements
reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for
a fair presentation of the Company's financial condition as of March 31, 1998
and December 31, 1997, the results of its operations for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 and 1997; and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31,
1998 and 1997. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature unless
otherwise disclosed in this Form 10-Q. As necessary, reclassifications have been
made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.
These reclassifications had no effect on the results of operations or
stockholders' equity. These interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore do not include all
the necessary information and footnotes for a presentation in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

     The information included under the heading "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" is written with the
presumption that the users of these interim financial statements have read or
have access to the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains the
latest audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition as of December 31,
1997 and 1996 and Results of Operations for the years ended December 31, 1997,
1996 and 1995. Accordingly, only certain changes in financial condition and
results of operations are discussed in this Form 10-Q. Furthermore, the interim
financial results for the three months ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any
other interim period.

NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Measurement of
Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128"). SFAS 128 establishes standards for computing
and reporting earnings per share ("EPS") and applies to entities with publicly
held common stock or financial instruments that are potentially convertible into
publicly held common stock. SFAS 128 replaces Primary EPS and Fully Diluted EPS
with Basic EPS and Diluted EPS and was effective for the Company's December 31,
1997 financial statements. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings for
the period available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of
common shares outstanding for that period. There is no adjustment to the number
of outstanding shares for dilutive instruments, such as stock options. Diluted
EPS takes into account the dilutive impact of such instruments and uses the
average share price for the period in determining the number of incremental
shares to add to the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. All
prior period EPS amounts have been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS 128.

     The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is summarized as
follows:

              The Company declared a 2 for 1 stock split in the form of a 100%
stock dividend on April 14, 1997 to stockholders of record as of the close of
business on May 9, 1997, which was paid on June 2, 1997. All common share and
per share data, including stock option plan information, has been restated to
reflect the stock split.

NOTE 3 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

              In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130"), which requires that all entities report
comprehensive income and its components in their financial statements. SFAS 130
requires that all items which are required to be recognized under generally
accepted accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported
in a financial statement which is displayed with the same prominence as other
financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus the
change in "other comprehensive income," as defined by SFAS 130. The only
currently applicable component of other comprehensive income for the Company is
the net unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale. This statement
was implemented during the first quarter of 1998.

NOTE 5 - DIVIDEND DECLARATION

     The Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share on March

payable, totaling $2.0 million, was accrued as of March 31, 1998 and is
reflected in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 - MERGER-RELATED ACTIVITY

Concord Growth Corporation

     The Company completed its acquisition of EXXE Data Corporation ("EXXE") and
its wholly owned commercial finance subsidiary, Concord Growth Corporation, on
March 17, 1997. Subsequent to the close of the transaction, EXXE was merged into
CGC and liquidated and CGC became a wholly owned stand-alone subsidiary of the
Company. The former holders of EXXE capital stock, warrants and options received
an initial aggregate payment of $19.8 million and will be entitled to potential
future cash payments, of up to $34 million, depending upon the financial
performance of CGC. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method
of accounting effective April 1, 1997. The aggregate acquisition costs exceeded
the fair value of the net assets acquired by approximately $21 million, which
was recorded as goodwill and which is being amortized on a straight-line basis
over a 15-year period.

Ultra Funding, Inc.

     Effective October 1, 1997, the Company, through its newly formed
subsidiary, Ultra Funding, Inc., acquired the origination capabilities and
certain assets of Ultra Funding, Ltd. of Austin, Texas. The purchase price
exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired by approximately $400,000,
which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a 7-year period.

America First Eureka Holdings, Inc.

     The Company completed its acquisition of America First Eureka Holdings,
Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, EurekaBank, a federal savings bank, on
January 2, 1998. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company paid $90 million
in cash and $210 million in stock (8,076,923 shares of the Company's common
stock, a portion of which were issued from the Company's shares in treasury) to
America First Financial Fund 1987-A Limited Partnership, the sole shareholder of
AFEH, for a total purchase price of $300 million. The number of common shares
issued was based on the average value of the Company's common stock for the 20
full trading days ending on the fifth business day prior to the merger closing
date. Based on the average value of $34.3031 during this period and pursuant to
the Merger Agreement, the number of common shares issued was determined by
dividing the $210 million stock portion of the purchase price by $26.00 per
share.

     The acquisition of AFEH was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting effective January 2, 1998. The amount of goodwill recorded as of the
merger date was approximately $101 million, excluding core deposit intangibles
of approximately $12 million. This goodwill, representing the excess of the
purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over a 20-year period. This goodwill amount is subject to
the finalization of purchase accounting adjustments.

     The following represents the estimated allocation of the purchase price:

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

                              STRATEGIC OVERVIEW

     The Company is a diversified financial services company which operates from
three distinct business platforms:

     *    A Banking/Depository/Wholesale Platform ("Banking Platform") which is
          comprised primarily of mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities.

     *    A Consumer Finance Platform which is comprised of motor vehicle loans
          originated by BVC and Ultra and motor vehicle and high loan to value
          ("HLTV") home equity loans purchased by the Company.

     *    A Commercial Finance Platform which is comprised of the factoring,
          re-discount and warehouse lending activities of CGC and the asset-
          based lending activities of BVFC, a division of CGC.

THE COMPANY'S MISSION STATEMENT

     To build a diversified financial services company by investing in niche
businesses with risk-adjusted returns that enhance shareholder value.

THE COMPANY'S STRATEGY

     The Company's strategy centers around the continued expansion of its net
interest margin. In order to realize this objective, management is pursuing a
strategy that encompasses the following:

     *   Replacing lower-yielding mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities
         with consumer and commercial loans and leases with higher risk-adjusted
         returns, shorter maturities and less sensitivity to interest rate
         fluctuations.

     *   Enhancing BVB's deposit base by reducing higher-cost deposits and
         expanding lower-cost transaction accounts by emphasizing relationship
         banking and capitalizing on cross-sell opportunities with customers.

     *   De-emphasizing the less profitable elements of the Company's business
         activities by ceasing residential mortgage loan originations and
         reducing BVB's wholesale activities.

     *   Maintaining the capital of BVB at or above the minimum "well
         capitalized" (as defined for bank regulatory purposes) level and
         returning any excess capital to the Company.

     *   Redeploying such excess capital in businesses intended to generate
         assets with higher risk-adjusted returns than those typically provided
         by mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities.

Banking Platform Strategies

     The Banking Platform is largely represented by the operations of BVB which
has 56 branches serving primarily the San Francisco Bay Area. The Banking
Platform's strategic focus is to expand the retail deposit franchise through the
growth of "transaction accounts" (e.g., checking, savings and money market
accounts), instead of the higher-cost certificates of deposit, as a source of
financing for the Consumer Finance Platform and the Commercial Finance Platform.
As a result, transaction accounts at BVB as a percentage of total retail
deposits increased to 39.5% at March 31, 1998 as compared with 34.6% and 30.3%
at December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

                                       14

Consumer Finance Platform Strategies

     The Consumer Finance Platform is comprised of motor vehicle loans
originated by BVC and Ultra and motor vehicle and HLTV home equity loans
purchased by the Company.

     Bay View Credit

     BVC (formerly California Thrift & Loan) underwrites and purchases motor
vehicle loans and has successfully carved out a niche in the increasingly
competitive motor vehicle finance industry. BVC is headquartered in Covina,
California and operates 9 offices throughout California and the Western United
States. BVC became a subsidiary of Bay View Acceptance Corporation, a wholly
owned subsidiary of BVB, at December 31, 1997.

     BVC's business strategy is to originate motor vehicle loans at rates which
generally exceed those offered by conventional financing sources while applying
its traditional underwriting criteria on a case-by-case basis to mitigate any
potential loan losses. BVC underwrites fixed-rate loans secured by new and used
motor vehicles. BVC's typical motor vehicle loan borrower desires a higher
relative loan amount and/or longer term than is offered by many other motor
vehicle financing sources. In return for the flexibility of the product it
offers, BVC has been able to charge interest rates higher than those typically
offered by traditional sources of motor vehicle financing, such as banks and
captive finance companies.

     Reduction of Higher-Cost Customer Deposits

     BVC's customer deposits were primarily comprised of thrift certificates
which were similar to certificates of deposit with the exception that they were
callable at par plus accrued interest. When thrift certificates were purchased
by customers, BVC reserved the right to repurchase the certificates at any time
upon thirty days notice. Utilizing this call provision, BVC redeemed the
higher-cost component (higher than BVB's incremental borrowing cost) of these
deposits at face value (approximately $267 million) as of December 31, 1996. The
remainder of the BVC customer deposits (which were lower in cost than BVB's
incremental borrowing cost) were sold to BVB in June 1997.

     Sale and Securitization of Motor Vehicle Loan Portfolio

     In January 1997, BVC sold $253 million of its motor vehicle loan portfolio
to BVSC. The motor vehicle loan portfolio was recorded at its fair value upon
acquisition assuming that such loans would be securitized and sold. As a result,
the only gain recorded on the sale and securitization was related to the changes
in the market interest rates between the acquisition date of BVC and the sale
and securitization of the loans. The Company ceased its securitization
activities in conjunction with the announcement of the EurekaBank acquisition.

     Ultra Funding, Inc.

     A significant source of the Consumer Finance Platform's loan purchases has
been a strategic alliance that began in November 1996 with Ultra Funding, an
originator of prime motor vehicle loans, whereby the Company had a right of
first refusal to purchase all of the motor vehicle installment contracts
originated by Ultra Funding which met the Company's underwriting criteria.
Effective October 1, 1997, the Company, through its newly created subsidiary,
Ultra Funding, Inc., acquired the origination capabilities and certain assets of
Ultra Funding. Ultra operates one office in Austin, Texas.

     Strategic Alliances

     The Company has previously announced strategic alliances with Onyx
Acceptance Corporation ("Onyx") for the purchase of motor vehicle loans and with
Lendco Financial Services, Inc. ("Lendco") for the purchase of motor vehicle
leases. The agreements with Lendco also provide the Company with an option to
acquire Lendco. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company purchased
approximately $15 million in motor vehicle loans from Onyx. The Company began
purchasing motor vehicle leases from Lendco during the second quarter of 1998.

                                       15

Commercial Finance Platform Strategies

     The Commercial Finance Platform is comprised of CGC and BVFC, a division of
CGC. CGC, based in San Mateo, California, offers factoring, warehouse lines and
re-discount lines. BVFC, based in Encino, California, offers asset-based
lending. CGC's corporate vision is to become a preeminent nationwide provider of
asset-based lending, factoring, warehouse lines and re-discount lines to small
and middle market companies.

     In December 1997, the Company announced an expansion of the Commercial
Finance Platform including the formation of a new asset-based lending group
known as Bay View Financial Corporation. Specifically, the Company expanded the
asset-based lending segment of the business by adding personnel with significant
industry experience, relocating the asset-based lending business to Southern
California, one of the top asset-based lending markets in the country, and
adding new and enhanced products to the Commercial Finance Platform's product
array. This expansion represents a significant step in achieving the Company's
goal of establishing a $200-300 million asset-based lending platform.

     Strategic Alliance

     The Company recently entered into a strategic alliance with Signature
Financial Group ("Signature"), a Danville, California-based company specializing
in small equipment leases nationwide. The agreement also provides the Company
with an option to acquire Signature. The Company began purchasing leases from
Signature during the second quarter of 1998.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net income was $5.1 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the first
quarter of 1998. This compares with net income of $5.3 million, or $0.39 per
diluted share, for the first quarter of 1997. Net income for the first quarter
of 1997 includes net interest income on the $253 million of motor vehicle loans
securitized and sold in January 1997 and the corresponding $925,000 gain on the
sale.

      Core earnings (excluding special mention items discussed elsewhere herein)
were $7.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 1998.
This compares with core earnings of $5.3 million, or $0.39 per diluted share,
for the first quarter of 1997. Special mention items for the first quarter of
1998 largely consisted of the previously announced and anticipated operations
and systems integration expenses relating to the acquisition of EurekaBank,
which was consummated on January 2, 1998.

     The following table illustrates the reconciliation of net income to core
earnings for the periods indicated:

 (1) Core earnings are calculated excluding special mention items. See "Special
     Mention Items" for further discussion. Core earnings are not a measure of
     performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not
     be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the
     Company's operating performance. Core earnings are included herein as
     management believes they are a useful tool for investors and analysts in
     assessing the Company's performance and trends excluding the impact of such
     items. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures
     reported by other companies.

(2) Average tangible assets (equity) are defined as average assets (equity) less
average intangible assets.

     In conjunction with the acquisition of AFEH, the Company acquired
approximately $62 million in NOL carryforwards. The Company may utilize these
carryforwards, subject to annual limitations, to reduce its current liability
for federal and state income taxes. The Company estimates that it will be able
to utilize approximately $11.0 million in NOL carryforwards during 1998. The
component included as tangible cash earnings in the above reconciliation
represents the first quarter's pro rata portion of the estimated annual
utilization.

(1)  The Consumer Finance Platform was redefined during the first quarter of
     1998 to include the Company's portfolio of HLTV home equity loans purchased
     by the Company. The Company began purchasing HLTV home equity loans during
     the third quarter of 1997.
(2)  The Commercial Finance Platform was created with the acquisition of CGC
     effective April 1997.

NET INTEREST INCOME

     Consolidated net interest income for the first quarter of 1998 was $36.9
million compared with $21.1 million for the first quarter of 1997. The increase
in consolidated net interest income was a result of a higher level of net
interest earning assets combined with a higher net interest margin. The
consolidated net interest margin was 2.90% for the first quarter of 1998 as
compared with 2.72% for the first quarter of 1997. Net interest margin on a pro
forma combined basis (i.e., including the acquisition of EurekaBank) for the
fourth quarter of 1997 would have been 2.82%. This pro forma net interest margin
for the fourth quarter of 1997 reflects the impact of EurekaBank's
lower-yielding portfolio of mortgage loans. The Company's consolidated net
interest margin for the month of March 1998 was 3.05%.

     The increase in net interest margin during the first quarter of 1998,
compared with the pro forma net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 1997
and the Company's consolidated net interest margin for the first quarter of
1997, was a result of a decrease in the Company's funding costs combined with
the continuing shift in the earning assets mix towards assets with higher
risk-adjusted yields.

     The strategic shift in the balance sheet from commodity-oriented, real
estate-based assets with lower risk-adjusted yields and higher prepayment risk
to consumer and commercial assets with higher risk-adjusted yields, shorter
maturities and lower prepayment risk is expected to continue. During the first
quarter of 1998, prepayments on loans (primarily mortgage) and mortgage-backed
securities were approximately $330 million, with over 75% of this amount
reinvested in consumer and commercial assets with higher risk-adjusted yields.

</TABLE> 
(1) The Commercial Finance Platform was created with the acquisition of CGC
    effective April 1997.

Banking Platform

     The Banking Platform's first quarter 1998 net interest margin was 2.47%
compared with 2.52% for the first quarter of 1997. The Banking Platform's net
interest margin was negatively impacted by the acquisition of EurekaBank's
lower-yielding portfolio of mortgage loans, high prepayment activity associated
with mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities, and the additional interest
expense on the $100 million of subordinated debt issued in August 1997 (with an
all-in cost of 9.6%). This negative impact was essentially offset, however, by a
lower cost of funds related to retail deposits, as discussed elsewhere herein.

Consumer Finance Platform

     The Consumer Finance Platform's first quarter 1998 net interest margin was
5.59% compared with 6.09% for the first quarter of 1997. The decrease in net
interest margin was a result of the aforementioned $253 million of motor vehicle
loans securitized and sold in January 1997 combined with lower yields on
originations. This was partially offset by the Company's purchase of $133
million of HLTV home equity loans during the first quarter of 1998 with net
yields averaging 11.2% and the decrease in the cost of deposits. The lower
yields on originations are due to pricing strategies, tighter underwriting
standards and competition within the industry.

     At March 31, 1998, the Consumer Finance Platform had approximately $190
million in HLTV home equity loans compared with approximately $67 million at
December 31, 1997. While these loans involve a higher degree of risk than other
types of mortgage lending, they generally provide higher risk-adjusted yields.

     During the first quarter of 1998, the Consumer Finance Platform originated
approximately $100 million in motor vehicle loans compared with $56 million
during the first quarter of 1997. BVC originated approximately $64 million in
motor vehicle loans during the first quarter of 1998 with an average yield of
10.7% and an average Fair Isaac Credit Bureau ("FICO") score of 700. Ultra
originated approximately $35 million in motor vehicle loans during this same
period with an average yield of 8.9% and an average FICO score of 670.

Commercial Finance Platform

     The Commercial Finance Platform's first quarter 1998 net interest margin
was 16.90% compared with 17.43% for the fourth quarter of 1997. This platform
was created as a result of the acquisition of CGC effective April 1, 1997.
Although still very strong, the decrease in net interest margin for the
Commercial Finance Platform during the first quarter of 1998 was a result of the
shift in the asset mix towards lower-yielding asset-based loans as well as
increased competition in the commercial finance industry. These lower yields,
combined with the costs associated with the expansion of the asset-based lending
business by BVFC, were responsible for the Commercial Finance Platform's small
operating loss during the first quarter of 1998. The Company anticipates that
these expansion efforts should lead to additional loan growth during the second
quarter of 1998 as evidenced by the strong pipeline of business at March 31,
1998.

AVERAGE BALANCE SHEET

     The following table sets forth certain information relating to the
Company's consolidated statements of financial condition and reflects the
average yields on interest-earning assets and average rates paid on
interest-bearing liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and rates
are derived by dividing interest income or interest expense by the average
balances of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities,
respectively, for the periods indicated. Average balances of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities were derived primarily from daily
average balances.

(1) The Commercial Finance Platform was created with the acquisition of CGC
    effective April 1997.

Banking Platform
- ----------------

     The decrease in the Banking Platform's loan yields for the first quarter of
1998, compared with the first quarter of 1997, was primarily due to the impact
of EurekaBank's lower-yielding portfolio of mortgage loans with high prepayment
activity associated with mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities.

Consumer Finance Platform
- -------------------------

     The decrease in the Consumer Finance Platform's loan yields for the first
quarter of 1998, compared with the first quarter of 1997, was the result of the
aforementioned $253 million of motor vehicle loans securitized and sold in
January 1997 combined with lower yields on originations, as discussed elsewhere
herein, partially offset by the purchase of HLTV home equity loans beginning in
the third quarter of 1997.

Commercial Finance Platform
- ---------------------------

     The Commercial Finance Platform's loan yields for the first quarter of 1998
were 21.90%. This platform was created as a result of the acquisition of CGC
effective April 1997.

Interest Income on Mortgage-backed Securities

     Interest income on the Company's mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") was
$15.3 million for the first quarter of 1998 compared with $9.2 million for the
first quarter of 1997. The yields on MBS were 6.71% for the first quarter of
1998 compared with 6.51% for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in interest
income and yields was primarily attributable to the acquisition of EurekaBank's
MBS portfolio effective January 2, 1998. There were no MBS purchased in 1997 or
1998 as management has sought to restructure the balance sheet and de-emphasize
the Company's wholesale investment and borrowing activities.

Interest and Dividends on Investments

     Interest and dividend income from the Company's investment portfolio was
$2.6 million for the first quarter of 1998 compared with $2.3 million for the
first quarter of 1997. The yields on investments were 6.26% for the first
quarter of 1998, down slightly from the 6.31% for the first quarter of 1997. The
increase in interest and dividend income from investments was primarily due to
the impact of the acquisition of EurekaBank's investment portfolio.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest Expense on Customer Deposits

     Interest expense on the Company's customer deposits was $41.0 million for
the first quarter of 1998 compared with $19.6 million for the first quarter of
1997. The cost of deposits was 4.62% for the first quarter of 1998 compared with
4.64% for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in interest expense was due to
the acquisition of EurekaBank's customer deposit balances partially offset by
the decrease in the cost of deposits.

     The consolidated cost of deposits for the month of March 1998 was 4.55%.
This consolidated cost was 42 basis points below the Eleventh District Cost of
Funds Index ("COFI") of 4.97% (56 basis points below COFI for BVB on a
stand-alone basis and 31 basis points below COFI for EurekaBank on a stand-alone
basis). Transaction account balances as a percentage of total retail deposits
were 39.5% at March 31, 1998 compared with 34.6% and 30.3% at December 31, 1997
and 1996, respectively.

     The following table summarizes the cost of deposits versus COFI:

                 ================   ===============    ===============    ================    =================
</TABLE> 

     The decrease in the cost of deposits during the first quarter of 1998 was
due to a combination of factors, including an increase in lower-cost transaction
accounts, primarily money market accounts, aggressive deposit pricing strategies
and the run-off of jumbo and brokered certificates of deposit.

Interest Expense on Borrowings

     Interest expense on the Company's borrowings was $21.1 million for the
first quarter of 1998 compared with $17.5 million for the first quarter of 1997.
The cost of borrowings was 6.46% for the first quarter of 1998 compared with
6.27% for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in both interest expense on
borrowings and the cost of borrowings was primarily due to the Company's
issuance of $100 million in subordinated debt in August 1997 with an all-in cost
of 9.6%.

Changes in Rate and Volume

     The following table sets forth the changes in net interest income due to
changes in the rate and volume of the Company's interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 1998 as
compared with the three months ended March 31, 1997. The variances include the
effects of the Company's acquisitions. Changes in rate and volume which cannot
be segregated (e.g., changes in weighted average interest rate multiplied by
average portfolio balance) have been allocated proportionately between the
change in rate and the change in volume.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
 
     The provision for loan losses was $660,000 for the first quarter of 1998
compared with $565,000 for the first quarter of 1997. See "Balance Sheet
Analysis - Allowance for Loan Losses" discussed elsewhere herein.

NONINTEREST INCOME

     Noninterest income for the first quarter of 1998 was $4.2 million compared
with $3.6 million for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in noninterest
income was due to the acquisitions of EurekaBank effective January 1998 and CGC
effective April 1997. Noninterest income for the first quarter of 1997 included
approximately $925,000 in gains on the securitization and sale of the
aforementioned $253 million motor vehicle portfolio in January 1997.

General and Administrative Expenses

     General and administrative expenses were $27.7 million for the first
quarter of 1998 compared with $14.6 million for the first quarter of 1997. Core
general and administrative expenses, excluding special mention items, were $24.4
million for the first quarter of 1998 compared with $14.2 million for the first
quarter of 1997. Special mention items for the first quarter of 1998 consisted
of the previously announced and anticipated operations and systems integration
expenses related to the acquisition of EurekaBank. The higher general and
administrative expenses were attributable to the acquisitions of EurekaBank
effective January 1998, Ultra effective October 1997 and CGC effective April
1997.

(1)  Core general and administrative expenses are calculated excluding special
     mention items. See "Special Mention Items" for further discussion. Core
     general and administrative expenses are not a measure of performance under
     generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an
     alternative to consolidated general and administrative expenses as an
     indicator of the Company's operating performance. Core general and
     administrative expenses are included herein as management believes they are
     a useful tool for investors and analysts in assessing the Company's
     performance and trends excluding the impact of such items. These measures
     may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other
     companies.

 (2) The Commercial Finance Platform was created with the acquisition of CGC
     effective April 1997.

     The Company's core consolidated efficiency ratio was 59.3% for the first
quarter of 1998 compared with 57.5% for the first quarter of 1997. The increase
during the first quarter of 1998, compared with the first quarter of 1997, was
due to the impact of the Company's acquisitions of CGC and Ultra in 1997
partially offset by the acquisition of EurekaBank in 1998.

Real Estate Owned Operations and Recovery of Losses on Real Estate

     Net expense (income) from real estate owned operations and recovery of
losses on real estate was $13,000 for the first quarter of 1998 compared with
($470,000) for the first quarter of 1997. The decrease is primarily due to a
$415,000 recovery received the first quarter of 1997. See "Special Mention
Items" for further discussion.

Amortization and Write-down of Intangibles

     The amortization and write-down of intangible assets was $2.7 million for
the first quarter of 1998 compared with $677,000 for the first quarter of 1997.
The increase is due to the amortization of intangibles arising from the
EurekaBank, Ultra and CGC acquisitions.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

     Income tax expense was $4.9 million for the first quarter of 1998 compared
with $4.0 million for the first quarter of 1997. The increase in the effective
tax rate to 49.3% for the first quarter of 1998, compared with 43.1% for the
first quarter of 1997, was primarily due to the increase in nondeductible
goodwill amortization.

SPECIAL MENTION ITEMS

     The Company's net income for the periods indicated below included certain
items which deserve special mention and which are excluded from net income to
arrive at core earnings.

First Quarter 1998

*    $3.4 million ($2.0 million after tax, or $0.10 per diluted share) related
     to the acquisition of EurekaBank and related systems, operations and
     re-engineering integration projects. The Company had previously disclosed
     that during 1998 it expects to incur approximately $5.0 million ($2.9
     million after tax) in costs associated with integrating EurekaBank into the
     Company, including training, systems and operations integration and costs
     for transitional personnel.

First Quarter 1997

     The after tax net impact of the following items essentially offset each
     other.

*    $700,000 expense accrual for long-term incentive plan awards due to an
     increase in the Company's stock price. $250,000 credit to income relating
     to the reversal of an accrual for the termination of BVB's data processing
     contract.

*    $415,000 recovery related to a real estate joint venture previously
     written-off.

     The Company's consolidated assets were $5.3 billion at March 31, 1998
compared with $3.2 billion at December 31, 1997. The increase in consolidated
assets was primarily due to the acquisition of EurekaBank.

the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"), Federal National Mortgage
Association ("FNMA") and Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA").

     The shift in loan origination and purchase activity as compared with the
first quarter of 1997 is consistent with the Company's strategy of focusing on
building the loan portfolios within the Consumer Finance Platform and the
Commercial Finance Platform with their higher risk-adjusted yields.

CREDIT QUALITY

     The Company defines nonperforming assets ("NPAs") as nonperforming loans
("NPLs"), defaulted MBS, real estate owned and other repossessed assets. The
Company defines NPLs as loans 90 days or more delinquent (excluding accruing
loans delinquent 90 days or more) and loans less than 90 days delinquent
designated as nonperforming when the Company determines that the full collection
of principal and/or interest is doubtful. NPAs are placed on nonaccrual status.
Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") are real estate loans that have been
modified (due to borrower financial difficulties) to allow a stated interest
rate and/or a monthly payment lower than those prevailing in the market.

     Overall credit quality has continued to remain strong as evidenced by the
trends in NPAs and delinquencies. The following table summarizes the Company's
NPAs and TDRs and reflects the acquisition of EurekaBank effective January 2,
1998:

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

       The Company conducts an ongoing review of its asset categories to assess
the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses which are maintained at levels
that the Company believes are sufficient to cover estimated possible losses in
the portfolios. In determining the level of the allowance for loan losses, the
Company considers a number of factors, including prevailing and anticipated
economic conditions, historical loss experience, the levels of classified,
nonperforming and delinquent assets, weighting by property type, loan portfolio
trends and other factors. The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 1998 was
$48.6 million compared with $38.5 million and $36.4 million at December 31, 1997
and 1996, respectively, including approximately $7.4 million related to loans
held for sale at December 31, 1996. The increased in the allowance for loan
losses were primarily due to the reserves related to acquisitions.

     The following table is a summary of the allowance for losses as a
percentage of NPAs, gross loans and total assets, respectively:

     The provision for loan losses was $660,000 for the first quarter of 1998,
primarily related to the Consumer Finance Platform, compared with $565,000 for
the first quarter of 1997. The provision for loan losses for the first quarter
of 1998 reflects the credit quality of the Company's loan portfolio as evidenced
by the low levels of NPAs and NPLs as well as the significant level of
recoveries during the first quarter of 1998. The increase in consumer
charge-offs during the first quarter of 1998 is a result of the continued growth
of the Consumer Finance Platform and includes approximately $1.3 million in
charge-offs related to the HLTV home equity loans.

CUSTOMER DEPOSITS

     As a primary part of the Company's business, customer deposits are
generated for the purpose of funding loans. The customer deposits at March 31,
1998 and December 31, 1997 were as follows:

YEAR 2000

     The Year 2000 issue arises from computer programs that were written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. As a result, computer
programs with time-sensitive software may have a difficult time distinguishing
between the year 2000 and the year 1900, causing potential disruptions of
operations, including among other things, potential miscalculations or an
inability to process transactions.

     The majority of the Company's data processing capabilities are either
currently provided by third party vendors or are on systems that are in the
process of converting to third party vendors. Contracts with the Company's key
vendors require that the vendor be Year 2000 compliant. The Company continues to
monitor these vendors' progress towards Year 2000 compliance. Additionally, the
Company is evaluating all internal systems for potential Year 2000 compliance
issues. The Company currently estimates that its total internal and external
costs associated with making these internal systems Year 2000 compliant will be
approximately $1.0 million which the Company expects to fund through operating
cash flows.

IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131 ("SFAS 131"), "Disclosures About
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," which establishes annual and
interim reporting standards for a publicly held entity's operating segments and
related disclosures about its products, services, geographic areas, and major
customers. Adoption of this statement will not impact the Company's consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows, and any effect will be
limited to the form and content of its disclosures. SFAS 131 will be effective
for the Company's December 31, 1998 financial statements.

                        ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

     The objective of the Company's asset/liability management activities is to
improve earnings by adjusting the type and mix of assets and liabilities to
effectively address changing conditions and risks. Through overall management of
its balance sheet and by controlling various risks, the Company seeks to
optimize its financial returns within safe and sound parameters. The Company's
operating strategies for attaining this objective include:

     *    Managing net interest margin through appropriate risk/return pricing
          of assets and liabilities.

     *    Increasing retail deposits as a percentage of interest-bearing
          liabilities and reducing the Company's cost of funds.

     *    Utilizing the Company's strong capital position to boost the earnings
          power through acquisition of quality assets with higher risk-adjusted
          yields. 
    
     *    Controlling noninterest expense and enhancing noninterest income,
          utilizing improved information systems to facilitate the analysis of
          the profitability of individual business units and products.

     *    Utilizing interest rate swap agreements and other hedging strategies
          to reduce exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. Enhancing
          internal analysis capability for measuring, evaluating and monitoring
          risk.

INTEREST RATE RISK

     Financial institutions are subject to interest rate risk to the degree that
interest-bearing liabilities reprice or mature on a different basis and at
different times than interest-earning assets. The Company's strategy has been to
reduce the sensitivity of its earnings to interest rate fluctuations by more
closely matching the effective maturities or repricing characteristics of its
assets and liabilities. Certain assets and liabilities, however, may react in
different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Further, interest rates
on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate prior to changes in
market interest rates, while rates on other types may lag behind. Additionally,
certain assets, such as ARMs, have features, including payment and rate caps,
which restrict changes in their interest rates. The Company considers the
anticipated effects of these factors when implementing its interest rate risk
management objectives.

     The Company pursues balance sheet strategies that should, in the long run,
mitigate its exposure to rising interest rates. The Company also considers other
strategies to minimize the variability of the net interest margin including
off-balance sheet activities. The Company has initiated numerous actions which
significantly reduced the Company's exposure to fluctuations in interest rates.
These actions are discussed as follows.

Interest Rate Swaps
- -------------------

     The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to reduce the interest rate
fluctuation risk related to certain assets and liabilities. Interest rate swaps
involve the exchange of fixed-rate and floating-rate interest payment
obligations without the exchange of the underlying notional amounts. At March
31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the Company was party to interest rate swap
agreements with notional principal amounts of $449 million, which involve the
receipt of floating interest rates (based on 3-month LIBOR) and payment of fixed
interest rates on the underlying notional amounts.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

     The Company's interest rate risk policies are established and monitored by
its Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO"). The ALCO reviews the sensitivity of the
Company's net interest income and market value of equity to interest rate
changes. The objective of the Company's ALCO activities is to improve earnings
by adjusting the types of assets and liabilities to effectively address changing
conditions and risks. Management believes that its asset/liability activities
have improved earnings within safe and sound parameters.

                                       33
<PAGE>
 
     In measuring interest rate sensitivity, the Company uses simulation
modeling to estimate the potential effects of movements in interest rates.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis measures the Company's interest rate risk by
computing estimated market value of equity ("MVE") based on the net present
value of cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the
event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. MVE is equal to
the market value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with
adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. This analysis assesses the risk of
loss in market risk sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained
100 to 400 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates.

     The following table presents BVB's projected change in MVE, with and
without interest rate swaps, for the various basis points ("bp") rate shock
levels at March 31, 1998. All market risk sensitive instruments presented in
this table are held to maturity or available for sale. The Company has no
trading securities.

     The change in MVE as a percentage of the present value of assets from an
immediate 200 bp increase in interest rates was 1.06% at March 31, 1998 as
compared with 0.59% at December 31, 1997.

     The computation of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate
changes are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market
interest rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay, and should not be relied
upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not
contemplate any actions the Company may undertake in response to changes in
interest rates. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis
presented in the computation of MVE. Actual values may differ from those
projections set forth in the table, should market conditions vary from
assumptions used in the preparation of the table.

     To measure the Company's interest rate sensitivity, a cumulative gap
measure can also be used to assess the impact of potential changes in interest
rates on net interest income. The repricing gap represents the net position of
assets and liabilities subject to repricing in specified time periods. Assets
and liabilities are categorized according to the expected repricing time frames
based on management's judgment. A cumulative gap measure alone cannot be used to
evaluate interest rate sensitivity because interest rate changes do not affect
all categories of assets and liabilities equally or simultaneously.
