                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

            and 1998, and at March 31, 1999 and 1998, is unaudited.)


1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The significant  accounting  policies  followed by Peoples Bancorp (the Company)
and its wholly-owned subsidiary,  Peoples Federal Savings Bank of DeKalb County,
(the Bank), for interim  financial  reporting are consistent with the accounting
policies followed for annual financial reporting.  All adjustments which are, in
the opinion of management,  necessary for a fair presentation of the results for
the periods reported, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, have been
included  in  the  accompanying   unaudited   consolidated  condensed  financial
statements.  The results of operations  for the three and six months ended March
31, 1999, are not necessarily  indicative of those expected for the remainder of
the year.


2.  CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

The  Consolidated  Statement of Financial  Condition at September 30, 1998,  has
been taken from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date.


3.  CASH DIVIDEND

A cash  dividend of $.12 per common  share was  declared on February  16,  1999,
payable on April 22, 1999, to stockholders of record as of April 1, 1999.

4.  EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic  earnings per share have been computed  based on the average common shares
outstanding  during,  and the  earnings  for,  the  periods  presented.  Diluted
earnings per share were calculated as if outstanding  stock options at March 31,
1999 and 1998 had been  exercised,  and the  exercise  price used to  repurchase
stock at the then current market price.  The resulting number of shares was used
to calculate the diluted earnings per share, which did not differ from the basic
earnings per share number.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total  assets at March 31, 1999 were  $319,875,515,  an increase of  $14,938,734
from September 30, 1998. The increase is  attributable  primarily to loans which
increased $12,680,324 to $279,338,907, cash and cash equivalents which increased
$5,978,154 to $9,542,779,  and  interest-bearing  time deposits which  increased
$4,600,000 to $5,318,000.  These increases were partially offset by decreases in
investment securities.

Total deposits were  $266,224,197  at March 31, 1999, an increase of $17,678,917
since September 30, 1998.

LIQUIDITY

As calculated for regulatory purposes,  liquidity was 7.62% at March 31, 1999 as
compared to 9.42% at September 30, 1998.  Liquidity and loan repayments may need
to be supplemented  with borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank to meet loan
fundings and other obligations and expenditures.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following table presents Peoples Federal Savings Bank's current estimates of
its regulatory capital position as a dollar amount and as a percentage of assets
as of March 31, 1999.

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (Continued)

SUMMARY OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Peoples  Bancorp and  subsidiary had net income of $1,068,598 or $0.33 per share
and  $2,152,889  or $.66 per share for the three and six months  ended March 31,
1999 as compared to  $1,120,265  or $0.30 per share and  $2,145,452  or $.63 per
share for the same periods ended 1998. Income was substantially unchanged due to
higher net interest income being offset by higher operating expenses.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income was $2,900,243 and $5,670,683,  for the three and six months
ended  March 31,  1999 as compared to  $2,755,668  and  $5,389,656  for the same
periods ended 1998.  Interest income  increased  $342,084 to $11,711,182 for the
six months primarily due to higher volumes of loans.  Interest expense increased
$27,503 to $5,999,282  due to a combination of lower rates and higher volumes of
deposit  accounts,  and higher  volumes of  borrowings.  Provision for loan loss
increased $33,554 to $41,217 for the six months ended March 31, 1999, reflecting
management's continued review of the loan portfolio.

The following table presents  average  balances and associated  rates earned and
paid for all interest  earning assets and interest  bearing  liabilities for the
six  months  ended  March 31,  1999 and 1998.  (dollars  in  thousands)

It  is  the  Bank's  policy  to  carry  REO  at  net  realizable  value.   After
repossession, appraised value is reduced for estimated repair and selling costs,
and the net  amount  is the  carrying  value of the  property.  Any  changes  in
estimated  realizable  value  after the initial  repossession,  are charged to a
specific  loss  reserve  account for REO. At present,  all REO is carried at the
Bank's estimated realizable value.

Management  continually  reviews  the mix and  delinquency  status  of its  loan
portfolio and classifies those loans which it deems appropriate. As of March 31,
1999, asset balances and the corresponding  allocation of the provision for loan
losses were as follows: (dollars in thousands)

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND SUMMARY OF LOAN LOSS EXPERIENCE (CONT'D)

The allowances for loan and real estate owned losses represent amounts available
to absorb future losses.  Such allowances are based on  management's  continuing
review of the portfolios,  historical charge-offs,  current economic conditions,
and such other factors,  which in management's  judgment deserve  recognition in
estimating  possible losses. In addition,  various  regulatory  agencies,  as an
integral part of their examination  process,  periodically  review the allowance
for loan losses.  Such agencies may require additions to the allowances based on
their  judgment  about the  information  available  to them at the time of their
examination.  Provisions  for  losses  are  charged  to  earnings  to bring  the
allowances to levels considered  necessary by management.  Losses are charged to
the allowances when considered  probable,  or in the case of REO, at the time of
repossession.  Management  believes that the  allowances  are adequate to absorb
known and inherent losses in the portfolio.  No assurance can be given, however,
that economic  conditions which may adversely affect the Bank's markets or other
circumstances will not result in future losses in the portfolio.

The following  table  presents an  allocation  of the Bank's  allowance for loan
losses at the dates  indicated  and the  percentage of loans in each category to
total loans. (dollars in thousands)

NON-INTEREST INCOME

The Company's  non-interest income increased to $402,412 as compared to $335,763
for the same  period one year ago.  The increase was attributable to  higher fee
income.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

Total non-interest expense for the three and six months ended March 31, 1999 was
$1,379,595 and $2,585,556 as compared to $1,112,300 and $2,250,422 for 1998. The
increase  was due to  increased  equipment  expenses  due to the addition of new
mortgage loan  processing  software,  ATM machines and other  computer  upgrades
being  undertaken  in  anticipation  of the year 2000,  and  increases  in trust
expense and NOW department  expense due to software  upgrades which  necessitate
higher  support  fees.  Salaries and  employee  benefits  increased  $136,909 to
$1,330,620 due to the addition of a seventh branch office in April, 1998 and the
addition of extra loan officers to deal with a very high loan demand.


INCOME TAXES

Income taxes for the six months ended March 31,1999 were substantially unchanged
at $1,334,650 as compared to $1,329,545  for the same period last year.

YEAR 2000

The Bank began working on its Year 2000 conversion  process in 1997 as part of a
project to update  our  information  systems  to a level that would  allow us to
compete in the 21st century. As a result, the Bank began a comprehensive  review
to identify all systems that would be affected,  estimate cost projections,  and
compile a schedule  or plan of  action.  The Bank is on  schedule  by having all
internal & external  mission  critical systems tested and/or certified Year 2000
compliant.

The Bank's  plan of action  follows the FFIEC's  suggested  steps of  Awareness,
Assessment,  Renovation,  Validation,  and  Implementation.  The Bank's progress
toward completion of each step is as follows:

         Awareness Phase

Starting in 1997, the Board of Directors  assigned Year 2000  responsibility  to
the Director of  Information  Services  who  developed a strategy to address all
internal and external  systems.  Routine  periodic reports were furnished to the
board of directors and requests to purchase the necessary  hardware and software
to completely  upgrade all systems were  approved by the Board of Directors.  In
early 1998 the Board of Directors appointed a Y2K Steering Committee composed of
senior managers to monitor the Bank's Year 2000 efforts.  The Steering Committee
meets quarterly, or more often if necessary. The Bank has completed this step.

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (Continued)

         Assessment Phase

By July of 1997, management believed that all business processes and elements of
the Bank's  internal  information  systems and  embedded  chip  systems had been
identified  and priorities  set.  Resource  needs were  identified,  time frames
established,  and contingency  plans were reviewed.  The Bank has completed this
step.

         Renovation Phase

This phase includes hardware and software upgrades, system replacements,  vendor
certification and associated  changes.  This phase also encompasses  discussions
with and monitoring of outside servicers and third party software providers.

In 1997,  the Bank  began  replacing  all  internal  hardware  and  software  as
necessary to upgrade to a Windows NT based  operating  system that would be Year
2000 compliant and meet the perceived technological challenges of the future. In
1997 the Bank also  started to actively  monitor our  primary  critical  systems
provider's efforts to renovate their systems to be Year 2000 compliant. The Bank
has also made  efforts  to  monitor  other  third  party  non-missions  critical
vendors' progress in attaining Year 2000 compliance.

Internal  Hardware - Since 1997,  the Bank has  replaced or scheduled to replace
its internal hardware.  Management feels that all internal hardware will be Year
2000 complaint by October 30, 1999.

Internal  Software  - The Bank has  received  certification  by the  appropriate
vendors that all critical  software utilized by our Wide Area Network as well as
the consumer lending,  tellering,  general ledger,  trust, and FedLine areas are
Year  2000  compliant.  The Bank has  upgraded  the  consumer  loan  application
software,  trust  department  software  and  our  mortgage  lending  application
software.  Vendor  certified Year 2000 software to operate the check  processing
system  has been  installed  and  tested.  Management  feels  that all  internal
software is Year 2000 compliant.

Any additional hardware or software  acquisitions or replacements will be vendor
certified Year 2000 compliant before purchase.

As is our practice with all mission  critical  system  upgrades we will test the
upgrades  prior to  replacement  of  current  Year 2000  compliant  hardware  or
software. Management considers this phase complete.

         Validation/Testing Phase

Since June of 1998,  the Bank has been  conducting a  systematic  testing of all
internal  computer  hardware and  software.  Testing is completed by  performing
extensive  testing with the computer dates converted to potentially  troublesome
dates such as January 1, 2000 or February 29, 2000. Internal testing of upgrades
will  continue  through June 30,  1999.  This  testing  schedule  allows time to
correct  any  discovered  deficiencies  before  the end of 1999.  This  phase is
approximately 99% complete as of March 31, 1999.

         Implementation Phase

Systems  successfully  tested will be certified as Year 2000 compliant.  For any
system failing  validation  testing,  the business impact must be assessed and a
contingency plan implemented. This phase is scheduled for completion by June 30,
1999.

Third Party  Providers - BISYS provides the Bank with mainframe  services in its
teller,  general ledger,  and commercial lending areas. BISYS has certified that
its systems are Year 2000  compliant.  The Bank is 99% complete with the testing
of the interface between BISYS and the Bank and the software's  performance when
encountering  potentially troublesome dates such as January 3, 2000 and February
29,  2000.  The Bank has  reviewed  the test  results  for all  deposit and loan
transactions and additional testing will be conducted if necessary.  All testing
will be completed by June 30, 1999.

Cost - The Bank  believes  that the Year 2000  issue  will not pose  significant
operational  problems  and is not  anticipated  to be material to its  financial
position or results of  operations  in any given  year.  Year 2000 costs are not
always easy to separate from upgrades or changes in hardware/software  for other
reasons.  The Bank currently  believes that all major  expenditures  relating to
year 2000 have been made and therefore, estimates that only $60,000 in Year 2000
cost will be incurred over the remaining 6 months.

Customer  Awareness - The Bank has developed a customer awareness plan utilizing
statement  stuffers,  individualized  responses to customer  inquiries and lobby
information.  The Bank has  maintained  a positive  approach  in  responding  to
inquiries.

Contingency  Planning - A formal Year 2000  contingency  plan has been developed
and approved by the board of directors.  However,  the plan will be reviewed and
its focus narrowed to more definitively  address worse case scenarios based upon
the results of mock disaster testing.

The costs and completion dates for testing and corrections of Year 2000 problems
are based on management's best estimates,  which were derived utilizing numerous
forward  assumptions.  However,  there can be no guarantee that these  estimates
will  be  achieved  and  actual  results  could  differ  materially  from  these
estimates.  Specific factors that might cause such material differences include,
but are not limited to, the ability to locate and correct all relevant  computer
programs, failure of a key third parties to meet expectations,  and availability
and cost of key personnel.
