OCWEN FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1997
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
================================================================================
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10, Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ocwen Financial
Corporation ("Ocwen" or the "Company") and its subsidiaries. Ocwen owns directly
and indirectly all of the outstanding common and preferred stock of its primary
subsidiary, Ocwen Federal Bank FSB (the "Bank"), and Investors Mortgage
Insurance Holding Company ("IMI"). Ocwen also owns 80% of Ocwen Financial
Services ("OFS"), with the remaining 20% owned by Admiral Home Loan ("Admiral")
and reported in the consolidated financial statements as a minority interest.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair
presentation of the Company's financial condition at June 30, 1997 and December
31, 1996, the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June
30, 1997 and 1996, its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
1996, and its changes in stockholders' equity for the year ended December 31,
1996 and the six months ended June 30, 1997. The results of operations and other
data for the six month period ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for any other interim periods or the entire
year ending December 31, 1997. The unaudited consolidated financial statements
presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company's Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996. Certain reclassifications have been
made to prior years' consolidated financial statements to conform to the June
30, 1997 presentation.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the dates of the statements of financial condition and revenues
and expenses for the periods covered. Actual results could differ from those
estimates and assumptions.
NOTE 2 ADOPTION OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
On January 1, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard ("SFAS") No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities". SFAS No. 125 (i) sets forth the
criteria for (a) determining when to recognize financial and servicing assets
and liabilities, and (b) accounting for transfers of financial assets as sales
or borrowings; and (ii) requires (a) liabilities and derivatives related to a
transfer of financial assets to be recorded at fair value, (b) servicing assets
and retained interests in transferred assets carrying amounts be determined by
allocating carrying amounts based on fair value, (c) amortization of servicing
assets and liabilities be in proportion to net servicing income, (d) impairment
measurement based on fair value, and (e) pledged financial assets to be
classified as collateral.
SFAS No. 125 provides implementation guidance for assessing isolation of
transferred assets and for accounting for transfers of partial interests,
servicing of financial assets, securitizations, transfers of sales-type and
direct financing lease receivables, securities lending transactions, repurchase
agreements including "dollar rolls", "wash sales", loan syndications and
participations, risk participations in banker's acceptances, factoring
arrangements, transfers of receivables with recourse and extinguishments of
liabilities. In December 1996, SFAS No. 127, "Deferral of the Effective Date of
FASB Statement No. 125", was issued and delayed implementation for one year
certain provisions of SFAS No. 125. The Company's adoption of these statements
did not have any material impact on its results of operations, financial
position or cash flows.
On January 28, 1997 the Securities and Exchange Commission approved rule
amendments (Release #33-7386, the "Release") regarding disclosures about
derivative financial instruments, or other financial instruments and derivative
commodity instruments. The Release amended Rule 4-08 of Regulation S-X (General
Notes to Financial Statements) to add a new paragraph which requires extensive
detail regarding the accounting policies followed in connection with accounting
for derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The
accounting policy
8

OCWEN FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1997
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
================================================================================
disclosure requirements are effective for periods ending after June 15, 1997.
See Note 4 below and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations - Asset and Liability Management included in Item 2
hereof for the Company's accounting policy disclosures in accordance with the
requirements of the Release. The Release also added Item 305 to regulation S-K
to require quantitative (in one of three formats) and qualitative disclosures
outside of the financial statements about market risk inherent in derivative and
other financial instruments. The quantitative and qualitative disclosures about
market risks are effective for periods ending after June 15, 1997 which include
annual financial statements.
In February 1997, SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share", and SFAS No. 129,
"Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure", were issued. SFAS No. 128
established standards for computing and presenting earnings per share and
applies to entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock.
SFAS No. 128 simplifies the standards previously found in Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 15. SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements issued
for periods ending after December 15, 1997, including interim periods and early
adoption is not permitted. SFAS No. 129 is also effective for financial
statements for periods ending after December 15, 1997. The Company does not
anticipate a material impact on its earnings per share calculation as a result
of implementing these statements.
NOTE 3 INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES
The Company's investment in joint ventures include investments in BCFL, L.L.C.
("BCFL"), a limited liability corporation formed in January 1997 between the
Company and BlackRock Capital Finance L.P. ("BlackRock"), and BCBF, L.L.C., (the
"LLC"), a limited liability company formed in March 1996 between the Company and
BlackRock. The Company owns a 10% interest in BCFL and a 50% interest in LLC.
BCFL was formed to acquire multifamily loans. At June 30, 1997, the Company's
10% investment, which is accounted for under the cost method, amounted to
$1,056.
The Company's 50% investment in the LLC, which was formed to acquire
single-family residential loans offered by the Department of Housing and Urban
Development ("HUD"), amounted to $26,532 and $67,909 at June 30, 1997 and
December 31, 1996, respectively, and is net of valuation allowances of $2,002
and $5,114, respectively. Because the LLC is a pass-through entity for federal
income tax purposes, provisions for income taxes are established by each of the
Company and its co-investor and not the LLC.
The Company's equity in earnings of the LLC includes 50% of the net income of
the LLC before deduction of the Company's 50% share of loan servicing fees which
are paid 100% to the Company. Equity in earnings for the six months ended June
30, 1997 includes the recapture of $2,641 of valuation allowances established in
1996 by the Company on its equity investment in the joint venture as a result of
the resolution and securitization of loans during the first quarter of 1997. The
Company has recognized 50% of the loan servicing fees not eliminated in
consolidation in servicing fees and other charges.

NOTE 4 INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT INSTRUMENTS
In managing its interest rate risk, the Company on occasion enters into swaps.
Under swaps, the Company agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified
intervals, the difference between fixed-rate and floating-rate interest amounts
calculated by reference to an agreed notional amount. The terms of the swaps
provide for the Company to receive a floating rate of interest equal to the
London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and to pay fixed interest rates. The
notional amount of the outstanding swap is amortized (i.e., reduced) monthly
based upon estimated prepayment rates of the mortgages underlying the securities
being hedged. The terms of the outstanding swap at June 30, 1997 and December
31, 1996 follows:
<TABLE>

DECEMBER 31, 1996.... 1998 $ 45,720 1-Month 6.18% 5.67% $ (103)
</TABLE>
The 1-month LIBOR was 5.69% and 5.50% on June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
respectively.
The Company also enters into short sales of Eurodollar and U.S. Treasury
interest rate futures contracts as part of its overall interest rate risk
management activity. Interest rate futures contracts are commitments to either
purchase or sell designated financial instruments at a future date for a
specified price and may be settled in cash or through delivery. U.S. Treasury
futures have been sold by the Company to hedge the risk of a reduction in the
market value of fixed-rate mortgage loans and certain fixed-rate mortgage-backed
and related securities available for sale in a rising interest rate environment.
Terms and other information on interest rate futures contracts sold short were
as follows at the dates indicated:
<TABLE>

1998 40,000 (87)
U.S. Treasury futures... 1997 165,100 498
</TABLE>
Because interest rate futures contracts are exchange traded, holders of these
instruments look to the exchange for performance under these contracts and not
the entity holding the offsetting futures contract, thereby minimizing the risk
of nonperformance under these contracts. The Company is exposed to credit loss
in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the swap and controls this
risk through credit monitoring procedures. The notional principal amount does
not represent the Company's exposure to credit loss.
NOTE 5 REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
The Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989
("FIRREA") and the regulations promulgated thereunder established certain
minimum levels of regulatory capital for savings institutions subject to Office
of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") supervision. The Bank must follow specific capital
guidelines stipulated by the
11
<PAGE>
OCWEN FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1997
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE DATA)
================================================================================
OTS which involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities and
certain off-balance sheet items. An institution that fails to comply with its
regulatory capital requirements must obtain OTS approval of a capital plan and
can be subject to a capital directive and certain restrictions on its
operations. At June 30, 1997, the minimum regulatory capital requirements were:
o Tangible and core capital of 1.5 percent and 3 percent of total adjusted
assets, respectively, consisting principally of stockholders' equity, but
excluding most intangible assets, such as goodwill and any net unrealized
holding gains or losses on debt securities available for sale.
o Risk-based capital consisting of core capital plus certain subordinated
debt and other capital instruments and, subject to certain limitations,
general valuation allowances on loans receivable, equal to 8 percent of the
value of risk-weighted assets.
At June 30, 1997, the Bank was "well-capitalized" under the prompt corrective
action ("PCA") regulations adopted by the OTS pursuant to the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA"). To be categorized as
"well capitalized", the Bank must maintain minimum core capital, Tier 1
risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios as set forth in the table
below. The Bank's capital amounts and classification are subject to review by
federal regulators about components, risk-weightings and other factors. There
are no conditions or events since June 30, 1997 that management believes have
changed the institution's category.

</TABLE>
The OTS has promulgated a regulation governing capital distributions. The Bank
is considered to be a Tier 1 association under this regulation because it met or
exceeded its fully phased-in capital requirements at June 30, 1997. A Tier 1
association that before and after a proposed capital distribution meets or
exceeds its fully phased-in capital requirements may make capital distributions
during any calendar year equal to the greater of (i) 100% of net income for the
calendar year to date plus 50% of its "surplus capital ratio" at the beginning
of the year or (ii) 75% of its net income over the most recent four-quarter
period. In order to make these capital distributions, the Bank must submit
written notice to the OTS 30 days in advance of making the distribution.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Bank's ability to make capital
distributions as a Tier 1 institution is limited by agreements between it and
the OTS to maintain specified capital levels and to dividend to Ocwen
subordinate and residual securities resulting from the Bank's securitization
activities, as discussed below.
In addition to these OTS regulations governing capital distributions, the
indenture governing the $100,000 of 12% subordinated debentures (the
"Debentures") due 2005 and issued by the Bank on June 12, 1995 limits the
declaration or payment of dividends and the purchase or redemption of common or
preferred stock in the aggregate to the sum of 50%
13

================================================================================
of consolidated net income and 100% of all capital contributions and proceeds
from the issuance or sale (other than to a subsidiary) of common stock, since
the date the Debentures were issued.
Based upon recent discussions with the OTS, the Bank has determined to maintain
a core capital ratio of at least 9% and a total risk-based capital ratio of no
less than 13%. Based upon recent discussions with the OTS, the Bank also
determined to transfer its single-family residential lending activities to
sub-prime borrowers to OFS. Additionally, the Bank agreed with the OTS (i) to
discontinue the purchase of subordinate classes of mortgage-related securities
created by unaffiliated parties, (ii) to sell the five such securities held by
it at March 31, 1997 (aggregate book value of $32,010), which was completed by a
sale to Ocwen Asset Investment Corp. ("OAIC"), a real estate investment trust in
which Ocwen owns a 9.8% interest, on May 19, 1997 (at a gain of $2,648 to the
Bank) and (iii) subject to the requirements of the OTS capital distribution
regulations, to dividend to Ocwen all subordinate and residual mortgage-related
securities acquired by it in connection with its securitization activities. The
Bank dividended two securities with an aggregate book value of $19,462 to Ocwen
in June 1997, and at June 30, 1997, the Bank held five subordinate securities
and one residual security which had an aggregate book value of $38,130. The Bank
believes at this time that it will continue to be a "well-capitalized
institution" under OTS regulations.
NOTE 6 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
At June 30, 1997 the Company had commitments to (i) originate $32,683 of
sub-prime loans secured by single-family residential properties, (ii) fund
$52,058 of loans secured by multi-family residential buildings, (iii) fund
$15,189 of loans secured by office buildings and (iv) fund $33,693 of loans
secured by hotel properties. Additionally, the Company had commitments of $8,326
to purchase sub-prime loans secured by single-family residential properties. The
Company, through its investment in subordinate securities and REMIC residuals
which had a book value of $57,408 at June 30, 1997, supports senior classes of
mortgage-related securities having an outstanding principal balance of
$1,396,562.
The Company is subject to various pending legal proceedings in the ordinary
course of business. Management, after reviewing these claims with legal counsel,
is of the opinion that the resolution of these claims will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash
flows or liquidity.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
================================================================================
GENERAL
The Company considers itself to be involved in a single business
segment of providing financial services and conducts a wide variety of business
within this segment. The Company's business activities are conducted primarily
through the Bank and currently consist primarily of its discount loan
acquisition, resolution and servicing activities, and various investment
activities, including investments in a wide variety of mortgage-related
securities and investments in low-income housing tax credit interests. The
Company obtains funds for investment in the foregoing and other business
activities primarily from brokered and other wholesale certificates of deposit
and, to a lesser extent, retail deposits obtained through its office in Fort
Lee, New Jersey, FHLB advances, reverse repurchase agreements, lines of credit
and asset securitizations.
The Company is a registered savings and loan holding company subject to
regulation by the OTS. The Bank is a registered savings and loan holding company
subject to regulation by the OTS. The Bank is subject to regulation by the OTS,
as its chartering authority, and by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC") as a result of its membership in the Savings Association Insurance Fund
("SAIF") administered by the FDIC, which insures the Bank's deposits up to the
maximum extent permitted by law. The Bank is also subject to certain regulation
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve
Board") and currently is a member of the FHLB of New York, one of the 12
regional banks which comprise the FHLB System.
At June 30, 1997, the only significant subsidiaries of the Company,
other than the Bank, were IMI and OFS. IMI, through subsidiaries, owns and
manages the Westin Hotel in Columbus, Ohio and residential units in cooperative
buildings which were acquired in connection with foreclosure on loans held by
the Bank or by deed-in-lieu thereof. OFS was formed in October 1996 for the
purpose of purchasing substantially all of the assets of Admiral (a transaction
which closed on May 1, 1997), the Company's primary correspondent mortgage
banking firm for sub-prime single-family residential loans, and assuming all of
the Bank's sub-prime single-family residential lending operations.
The following discussion of the Company's consolidated financial
condition and results of operations and capital resources and liquidity should
be read in conjunction with the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and
related Notes included in Item 1 hereof.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On July 15, 1997, IMI sold a 69% partnership interest in the Westin
Hotel for a minimal gain.
On July 17, 1997, the Company entered into a letter of intent to
acquire a small, privately-held firm which is engaged primarily in the
development of software for the financial services industry, including loan
servicing software. The aggregate purchase price would be $8.0 million,
including $3.5 million which would be contingent on the target meeting certain
software development performance criteria, and would be payable in cash and/or
securities of the Company, as to be agreed by the parties. This acquisition is
subject to the completion of due diligence by the Company to its satisfaction,
the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements and the satisfaction of
other conditions customary in these types of transactions, and, as a result,
there can be no assurance that it will be consummated in the near term or at
all.
The Company is currently exploring obtaining an approximately $20
million line of credit to the Company and an approximately $500 million line of
credit to the Bank. If obtained, these lines of credit will enhance the
Company's ability to manage its liquidity and sources of funds to utilize those
which are the most cost effective.
The Company has received notice that HUD intends to auction
approximately 18,200 single-family residential loans with an aggregate unpaid
principal amount of approximately $1.15 billion in early September 1997. The
Company currently intends to submit a bid to acquire all or a substantial
portion of these loans with one or more co-investors. There can be no assurance
that the Company ultimately will submit a bid or as to the terms hereof, or that
any bid by the Company will be successful in whole or in part.
On August 6, 1997 the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
declared effective a Form S-1 registration statement with respect to the
offering by the Company to the public of 3,000,000 shares (plus up to 450,000
15
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results

================================================================================
shares pursuant to the underwriters' over-allotment options) of newly-issued
common stock. The offering of such common stock , which closed on August 12,
1997, resulted in estimated net proceeds to the Company of $123.4 million.
Concurrently on August 6, 1997, the SEC declared effective a Form S-1
registration statement with respect to the offering by Ocwen Capital Trust I, a
newly-formed Delaware business trust and subsidiary of Ocwen, of $125.0 million
of 10 7/8% capital securities. The offering of such capital securities, which
also closed on August 12, 1997, resulted in estimated net proceeds to the
Company of $120.7 million.
On Friday, August 1, 1997 shares of the Company's common stock began
trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "OCN". The
Company has traded on the NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol "OCWN"
since September 1996, when the Company completed its initial public offering.
Upon effectiveness of the NYSE listing, the Company delisted its common stock
from NASDAQ.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
================================================================================
SUMMARY
The Company's net income amounted to $18.8 million or $0.69 per share
for the three months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to net income of $12.0
million, or $0.45 per share for the same period in 1996. For the six months
ended June 30, 1997, the Company's net income amounted to $35.8 million or $1.32
per share, compared to net income of $15.0 million, or $0.57 per share for the
same period in 1996.
The $3.5 million or 14% increase in net interest income during the
second quarter of 1997 as compared to the second quarter of 1996 is primarily
due to a $816.5 million increase in average interest-earnings assets offset in
part by a $695.9 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities and a
221 basis point decline in the interest rate spread
The $25.2 million or 313% increase in non-interest income for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 is primarily due to a $17.2 million net gain earned
in connection with the securitization of 1,783 single-family residential loans
with an unpaid principal balance of $170.6 million (of which 1,751 loans with an
unpaid principal balance of $168.3 million were discount loans and 32 loans with
an unpaid principal balance of $2.3 million were from the loan portfolio), a
$4.5 million gain earned in connection with the securitization of 896 sub-prime
single-family residential mortgage loans with an aggregate unpaid principal
balance of $104.8 million and a $2.6 million gain on the sale of
mortgage-related securities to OAIC. (See Note 5 to the Interim Consolidated
Financial Statements). The Company continues to service the loans for a fee and
has retained an interest in the related subordinate and residual class
securities. Also included in non-interest income for the six months ended June
30, 1997 is a $9.5 million gain resulting from the Company's direct
participation in a securitization by the Company, the LLC and an affiliate of
BlackRock of 2,916 discount mortgage loans on March 27, 1997 which were
previously acquired from HUD in 1995 and 1996.
Equity in earnings of investment in joint ventures of $15.7 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 includes $9.2 million representing the
Company's pro rata share of the gain recorded by the LLC in connection with the
March 27, 1997 securitization described above. The LLC, was formed in March,
1996 and began operations in the second quarter of 1996.
Non-interest expense increased $17.2 million or 124% during the three
months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to the same period in 1996, primarily
due to an increase in the average number of employees to 823 from 373 and an
increase in employee profit sharing expense of $3.3 million. For the six months
ended June 30, 1997, non-interest expense increased $28.2 million or 110% as
compared to the same period in 1996 primarily as a result of an increase in the
average number of employees to 721 from 349 and a $6.9 million increase in
employee profit sharing expense.
The following table presents the estimated contribution by business
activity to the Company's net income for the periods indicated.

RATE/VOLUME ANALYSIS. The following table describes the extent to which
changes in interest rates and changes in volume of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities have affected the Company's interest income and
expense during the periods indicated. For each category of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes
attributable to (i) changes in volume (change in volume multiplied by prior
rate), (ii) changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by prior volume) and
(iii) total change in rate and volume. Changes attributable to both volume and
rate have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the
change due to rate.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 VERSUS THREE AND
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
NET INTEREST INCOME. The Company's net interest income of $28.1 million
increased $3.5 million or 14% during the three months ended June 30, 1997 as
compared to the comparable period in the prior year. Interest income increased
$15.4 million or 30% due to a $816.5 million or 54% increase in the Company's
average interest-earning assets from period to period which was offset in part
by a 210 basis point decrease in the weighted average yield earned. Interest
expense increased $12.0 million or 44% due to a $695.9 million or 42% increase
in the Company's average interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest income of $45.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
1997 increased $1.0 million or 2% over the comparable period of the prior year.
The increase resulted from the $679.7 million or 43% increase in average
interest-earning assets from period to period which was offset in part by a 186
basis point decrease in the weighted average yield earned on those assets, net
of the $614.1 million or 36% increase in the average interest-bearing
liabilities.
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income on the discount loan portfolio
increased by $14.3 million or 48% in the three months ended June 30, 1997 versus
the three months ended June 30, 1996 as a result of a $763.0 million or 130%
increase in the average balance of the discount loan portfolio which was offset
in part by 726 basis point decline in the weighted average yield earned. For the
six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996, interest
income on the discount loan portfolio increased $22.4 million or 43% due to a
$617.8 million or 100% increase in the average balance of the discount loan
portfolio which was offset in part by a 482 basis point decrease in the weighted
average yield earned. The decline in the yields during 1997, as compared to
1996, is primarily attributable to
22
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
================================================================================
an increase in the average balance of single-family discount loans acquired from
HUD, significant resolutions of residential and commercial loans during the
second quarter of 1996 and the Company's decision to cease accretion of discount
on nonperforming single-family discount loans effective January 1, 1997.
Discount accretion on non-performing single-family residential discount loans
amounted to $3.0 million or 203 basis points in yield during the three months
ended June 30, 1996 and $5.0 million or 162 basis points in yield during the six
months ended June 30, 1996. The Company believes that for the remainder of 1997
the yield earned on its discount loan portfolio will remain below the yield
earned in the prior year due to its decision to cease accretion of discount and
its current strategy of attempting to work with borrowers to either (i) bring
their loans current, (ii) modify the terms of their loans, (iii) enter into
forbearance agreements that require the borrower to make monthly payments
greater than or equal to scheduled payment amount or (iv) refinance the loans
with the Company. This resolution strategy results in lower initial yields as
compared to borrowers paying off their loans in full or in part, and to the
extent the loans are ultimately sold will result in a significant portion of the
earnings being reflected in gains on sales of interest earning assets. In
addition, the majority of the single-family HUD loans acquired by the Company in
February 1997 are currently under a HUD forbearance plan, whereby the borrower
makes payments based upon ability to pay for a specific period of time, which
generally results in a lower effective yield than the contract rate. Once this
period is over the borrower must make at least its contractual mortgage payment
or the Company can pursue foreclosure or other actions. Virtually all the loans
currently serviced by the Company under these plans will reach the end of the
grace period by July 1998. The yield on the overall discount loan portfolio is
also likely to continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter as a result of the
timing of resolutions, particularly the resolution of large multifamily and
commercial loans, and the mix of the overall portfolio between paying and
nonpaying loans.
Interest income on the loan portfolio increased by $2.9 million or 37%
in the second quarter of 1997 from the comparable period in 1996 primarily due
to an increase in the average balance of the loan portfolio for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 of $151.5 million or 51% over that of the same period in
1996, offset in part by a 95 basis point decrease in the weighted average yield
earned. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, interest income on the loan
portfolio increased $3.6 million or 20% over that of the same period in 1996 as
a result of a $136.4 million or 46% increase in the average balance of the loan
portfolio which was offset in part by a 207 basis point decrease in the weighted
average yield earned on the portfolio. The decline in the yield during the six
months ended June 30, 1997 was primarily due to $2.1 million of additional
interest earned during the first quarter of 1996 in connection with the
repayment of hotel loans.
Interest income on loans available for sale decreased $914,000 million
or 19% during the second quarter of 1997 as compared to 1996 primarily as a
result of a $82.9 million decrease in the average balance offset in part by a
276 basis point increase in the weighted average yield earned. For the first six
months of 1997, interest income on loans available for sale decreased $4.7
million or 41% during the first six months 1997 as compared to 1996 due to a
decrease in the average balance of loans available for sale of $112.2 million or
47% which was offset in part by a 111 basis point increase in the weighted
average yield earned. The increase in weighted average yields for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to comparable periods in 1996, is
primarily due to significant resolutions of non-performing sub-prime
single-family loans during the second quarter of 1997.
INTEREST EXPENSE. The increases in interest expense during the three
and six months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to the same periods in 1996,
reflect the Company's continued use of certificates of deposit to fund its asset
growth and the issuance of $125.0 million of 11.875% notes in September 1996.
The average amount of the Company's certificates of deposit increased from $1.44
billion and $1.45 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
respectively, to $2.0 billion during the three and six months ended June 30,
1997.
PROVISIONS FOR LOAN LOSSES. Provisions for losses on loans are charged
to operations to maintain an allowance for losses on each of the loan portfolio
and the discount loan portfolio at a level which management considers adequate
based upon an evaluation of known and inherent risks in such loan portfolios.
Management's periodic evaluation is based upon an analysis of each of the
discount loan portfolio and the loan portfolio, historical loss experience,
current economic conditions and other relevant factors.

</TABLE>
The amount provided for discount loans during the first six months of
1997 included $2.0 million established during the first quarter on single-family
residential loans acquired from HUD in 1995 and 1996 which were not included in
the March 1997 securitization.
Although management utilizes its best judgment in providing for
possible loan losses, there can be no assurance that the Company will not change
its provisions for possible loan losses in subsequent periods to a higher level
from that recorded to date in 1997. Changing economic and business conditions,
fluctuations in local markets for real estate, future changes in nonperforming
asset trends, large upward movements in market interest rates or other reasons
could affect the Company's future provisions for loan losses. In addition, the
OTS, as an integral part of its examination process, periodically reviews the
adequacy of the Company's allowances for losses on loans and discount loans.
Such agency may require the Company to recognize changes to such allowances for
losses based on its judgment about information available to it at the time of
examination. For further discussion and analysis regarding the provisions for
loan losses, see "Changes in Financial Condition - Allowances for Losses."

========== ========== ========== ==========
</TABLE>
The increase in servicing fees and other charges during 1997 was due to
an increase in loan servicing and related fees as a result of the Company's
increase in loans (primarily non-performing) serviced for others. The average
unpaid principal balance of loans serviced for others amounted to $2.50 billion
and $2.27 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 1997,
respectively, as compared to $561.8 million and $450.3 million during the three
and six months ended June 30, 1996. Included in servicing fees and other charges
during the first six months of 1997 was $1.1 million of fees earned during the
first quarter in connection with the setup of loans transferred to the Company
for servicing during the quarter. In addition, servicing fees and other charges
earned during the first six months of 1996 included a $928,000 valuation
adjustment recorded during the first quarter to mortgage servicing rights due to
a significant increase in prepayments of the underlying loans serviced resulting
primarily from refinancings.
Net gains on sales of interest-earning assets in the second quarter of
1997 were primarily comprised of a $17.2 million gain in connection with the
securitization of 1,783 single-family residential loans with an aggregate unpaid
principal balance of $170.6 million (of which 1,751 loans with an unpaid
principal balance of $168.3 million were discount loans and 32 loans with an
unpaid principal balance of $2.3 million were from the loan portfolio), a $3.8
million net gain in connection with the securitization of 896 single-family
residential mortgage loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $104.8
million and a $2.6 million gain on the sale of mortgage-related securities to
OAIC. Net gains on sales of interest-earning assets in the

The average number of full-time equivalent employees was 664 and 638 during the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, and 368 and 344 during
the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, respectively. Profit sharing
expenses accounted for $3.3 million of the $11.1 million increase in
compensation and benefits during the second quarter of 1997 as compared to the
same period in 1996, and $6.9 million of the $19.9 million increase during the
first six months of 1997 as compared to the same period in 1996.
The increases in occupancy and equipment expenses during the three and
six months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to the same periods in the prior
year, were primarily due to increases in data processing costs and general
office expenses.
Net operating losses on investments in real estate and certain
low-income housing tax credit interests, which includes hotel operations,
increased $503,000 and $1.1 million during the three and six months ended June
30, 1997, respectively, primarily as a result of net operating losses and
depreciation expense on low-income housing tax credit interests placed in
service since the second quarter of 1996. The associated tax credits on such
projects are reported as a reduction of income tax expense. See "Income Tax
Expense" below.
Other operating expenses increased $3.8 million during the three months
ended June 30, 1997, as compared to the comparable period in the prior year
primarily due to a $1.3 million write-off of a receivable, $1.2 million of
certain other one-time charges and a $719,000 increase in loan related expenses.
EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES. Equity in earnings
of investment in joint ventures of $1.3 million and $1.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and $15.7 million and $1.1

million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, relates
to the LLC, the joint venture formed in March 1996 to acquire discount
single-family residential loans from HUD. The Company's earnings from this joint
venture consist of 50% of the net income of the LLC before deduction of the
Company's 50% share of loan servicing fees, which are paid 100% to the Company.
Net income of the joint venture is primarily attributable to interest income on
discount loans and gains on the sale of discount loans, including the
securitization of HUD loans in March 1997. Equity in earnings for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 includes the recapture of $2.6 million of valuation
allowances established in 1996 by the Company on its equity investment in the
LLC as a result of the resolution and securitization of loans during the first
quarter. See Note 3 to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in
Item 1 hereof.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expense amounted to $5.1 million and
$2.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively,
and $8.7 million and $1.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
1996, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate was 21.65% and 19.52%
during the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and 19.70%
and 11.28% during the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The
Company's income tax expense is reported net of tax credits of $2.9 million and
$2.5 million during the second quarter of 1997 and 1996, respectively, and $6.5
million and $4.9 million during the first six months of 1997 and 1996,
respectively, resulting from the Company's investment in certain low-income
housing tax credit interests. Exclusive of such amounts, the Company's effective
tax rate amounted to 34.02% and 36.08% during the three months ended June 30,
1997 and 1996, respectively, and 34.35% and 40.30% during the six months ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. See "Changes in Financial
Condition-Investments in Low Income Housing Tax Credit Interests" for additional
information regarding tax credits.
MINORITY INTEREST. Minority interest in net loss of consolidated
subsidiary represents the loss attributable to the 20% interest in OFS owned by
Admiral.
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
GENERAL. From December 31, 1996 to June 30, 1997 total assets increased
by $303.2 million or 12%. This increase was primarily due to a $234.2 million
increase in discount loans, a $31.1 million increase in the loan portfolio and a
$174.5 million increase in cash and cash equivalents, offset in part by a $90.6
million decrease in securities available for sale, a $75.6 million decrease in
securities held for trading, a $22.7 million decrease in loans available for
sale and a $40.3 million decrease in investment in joint ventures. Total
liabilities increased by $261.4 million from December 31, 1996 to June 30, 1997
and was primarily due to a $278.9 million increase in deposits, $61.4 million
increase in notes, debentures and other interest bearing obligations offset by a
$74.5 million decrease in securities sold under agreements to repurchase.
SECURITIES HELD FOR TRADING. The Company held a $75.6 million
single-family CMO for trading at December 31, 1996. This security, which was
acquired from the LLC in connection with the LLC's securitization in October
1996, was sold in January 1997.
SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE. At June 30, 1997, an aggregate of $7.1
million of net unrealized gains, net of related deferred taxes of $4.1 million
on securities classified as available for sale, were included in stockholders'
equity, as compared to $3.5 million of net unrealized gains at December 31,
1996, net of related deferred taxes of $2.0 million.

The Company's securities available for sale of $263.4 million at June
30, 1997 decreased by $90.6 million or 26% from December 31, 1996 due primarily
to $157.3 million of sales and $37.3 million of principal repayments and net
premium amortization, offset in part by $107.4 million of purchases.
The Company does not intend to purchase subordinate classes of
mortgage-related securities created by unaffiliated parties. The Company held
five such securities with a carrying value of $32.0 million at March 31, 1997,
which subsequently were sold to OAIC on May 19, 1997. The Company may retain
subordinate classes or REMIC residuals resulting from the securitization of
assets held by it directly or indirectly through the Bank and investments in
joint ventures, although any such securities held by the Bank will be
distributed to Ocwen as a dividend, subject to the Bank's ability to declare
such dividends under applicable limitations. Two such securities with an
aggregate book value of $19.5 million were distributed to Ocwen in the form of a
dividend during June 1997. At June 30, 1997, the Bank held five subordinate
securities and one residual security with an aggregate carrying value and book
value of $39.1 million and $38.1 million, respectively, which are anticipated to
be dividended to Ocwen in the future.
LOANS AVAILABLE FOR SALE. The Company's loans available for sale at
June 30, 1997, which are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, decreased
by $22.7 million or 18% from December 31, 1996 and consist primarily of
single-family residential loans to sub-prime borrowers. The Company generally
intends to sell or securitize its single-family residential loans to sub-prime
borrowers and, as a result, all of such loans were classified as available for
sale at June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996. Based upon recent discussions with
the OTS, the Bank has determined to transfer its single-family residential
lending activities to sub-prime borrowers to OFS. See Note 5 to the Interim
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 hereof.

During the first six months of 1997 and 1996 the Company purchased and
originated $186.4 million and $132.4 million, respectively, of single-family
residential loans to sub-prime borrowers. The Company also sold $183.4 million
of sub-prime loans during the first six months of 1997 for a gain of $7.3
million. Of the $183.4 million and $285.2 million of sub-prime loans sold during
the first six months of 1997 and 1996, respectively, $104.8 million and $134.8
million, respectively, were the result of the Company's securitization of such
loans.

Non-performing loans as a percentage of:

Non-performing loans available for sale consist primarily of sub-prime
single-family residential loans, reflecting the higher risks of default
associated with such loans. Although sub-prime loans generally have higher
levels of default than prime loans, the Company believes that the borrower's
equity in the secured property and its expertise in the area of resolution of
non-performing loans will continue to make its sub-prime residential loan
program a profitable one notwithstanding such defaults and any resulting losses.

ALLOWANCES FOR LOSSES. The Company maintains an allowance for loan
losses for each of its loan portfolio and discount loan portfolio at a level
which management considers adequate to provide for potential losses in each
portfolio based upon an evaluation of known and inherent risks in such
portfolios. When an impaired loan is either sold, transferred to real estate
owned or charged off, only the excess or unused portion of any related specific
valuation allowance is credited to the provision for loan losses.

INVESTMENTS IN LOW-INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDIT INTERESTS. In 1993, the
Company commenced a program to invest in multi-family residential projects which
have been allocated low income housing tax credits under Section 42 of the
Internal Revenue Code by a state tax credit allocating agency. At June 30, 1997
the Company had $101.2 million of investments in low-income housing tax credit
interests as compared to $93.3 million at December 31, 1996, an increase of $7.9
million or 8%.

================================================================================
Investments by the Company in low-income housing tax credit interests made
on or after May 18, 1995 in which the Company invests solely as a limited
partner, which amounted to $26.2 million at June 30, 1997, are accounted for
using the equity method in accordance with the consensus of the Emerging Issues
Task Force through Issue Number 94-1. Limited partnership investments made prior
to May 18, 1995, which amounted to $47.8 million at June 30, 1997, are accounted
for under the effective yield method as a reduction of income tax expense.
Low-income housing tax credit partnerships in which the Company invests as both
a limited and, through a subsidiary, general partner amounted to $27.2 million
at June 30, 1997 and are presented on a consolidated basis.
INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES. The Company's investment in joint ventures
decreased 59% from $67.9 million at December 31, 1996 to $27.6 million at June
30, 1997. The decrease in investment in joint ventures is primarily due to the
sale of loans and real estate owned by the LLC, including the $51.7 million
securitization of loans in March 1997, offset in part by the Company's $1.1
million investment in BCFL in January 1997. The Company's investment in the LLC
amounted to $26.5 million and $67.9 million at June 30, 1997 and December 31,
1996, respectively, and is net of valuation allowances of $2.0 million and $5.1
million, respectively. See Note 3 to the Interim Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Item 1 hereof.
In connection with the LLC's acquisition of the loans from HUD ("HUD
Loans"), the Company entered into an agreement with the LLC to service the HUD
Loans in accordance with its loan servicing and loan default resolution
procedures. In return for such servicing, the Company receives specified fees
which are payable on a monthly basis. The Company did not pay any additional
amount to acquire these servicing rights and, as a result, the acquisition of
the right to service the HUD Loans for the LLC did not result in the Company's
recording capitalized mortgage servicing rights for financial reporting
purposes. All of the HUD Loans are secured by second mortgage liens on
single-family residential properties. In addition, all intercompany transactions
between the Company and the LLC are eliminated for financial reporting purposes
to the extent of the Company's ownership in the LLC.
The following table sets forth information relating to the payment status
of the HUD Loans (gross principal amount) at the dates indicated.

REAL ESTATE OWNED. Properties acquired through foreclosure are valued at
the lower of the adjusted cost basis of the loan or fair value less estimated
costs of disposal of the property at the date of foreclosure. Properties

included in the Company's real estate owned are periodically re-evaluated to
determine that they are being carried at the lower of cost or fair value less
estimated costs to dispose. Rental income related to properties is reported as
earned. Holding and maintenance costs related to properties are recorded as
period costs as incurred. Decreases in market value of foreclosed real estate
subsequent to foreclosure are recognized as a valuation allowance on a property
specific basis. Subsequent increases in the market value of the foreclosed real
estate are reflected as reductions in the valuation allowance, but not below
zero. Such changes in the valuation allowance are charged or credited to income.

INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE. In conjunction with its multi-family and
commercial real estate lending business activities, the Company has made certain
acquisition, development and construction loans in which the Company
participates in the expected residual profits of the underlying real estate and
the borrower has not made an equity contribution substantial to the overall
project. As such, the Company accounts for these loans under the equity method
of accounting as though it has made an investment in a real estate limited
partnership. The Company's investment in such loans increased to $48.1 million
at June 30, 1997, as compared to $24.9 million at December 31, 1996 primarily as
a result of additional funding under existing commitments. Currently, the
Company does not intend, except for commitments outstanding, to originate new
loans in which it participates in the residual profits in underlying real
estate.
The Company also has invested in the Westin Hotel, Columbus, located in
Columbus, Ohio. The Company's investment in such property decreased to $15.6
million at June 30, 1997 from $16.1 million at December 31, 1996 as a result of
depreciation recorded against the asset. On July 15, 1997, the Company sold a
69% partnership interest in the Westin Hotel for a minimal gain.

DEFERRED TAX ASSET. At June 30, 1997 the deferred tax asset, net of
deferred tax liabilities, amounted to $10.7 million, an increase of $4.8 million
from the $5.9 million deferred tax asset at December 31, 1996. At June 30, 1997,
the gross deferred tax asset amounted to $23.0 million and consisted primarily
of $1.5 million of mark-to-market adjustments and reserves on real estate owned,
$4.0 million of deferred interest expense on the discount loan portfolio, $7.4
million of valuation allowance reserves, $2.5 million of profit sharing expense
and $1.8 million of contingency reserves, and the gross deferred tax liability
amounted to $12.3 million and consisted of primarily of $3.6 million of deferred
interest income on the discount loan portfolio, $1.8 million related to hedging
transactions and $3.9 million of mark-to-market adjustments on securities
available for sale. At December 31, 1996, the gross deferred tax asset amounted
to $15.1 million and consisted primarily of $3.7 million related to tax
residuals, $3.5 million of mark-to-market adjustments and reserves on real
estate owned and $3.9 million of deferred interest expense on the discount loan
portfolio, and the gross deferred tax liability amounted to $9.2 million and
consisted primarily of $4.6 million of deferred interest income on the discount
loan portfolio and $2.1 million of mark-to-market adjustments on certain
securities available for sale.
As a result of the Company's earnings history, current tax position and
taxable income projections, management believes that the Company will generate
sufficient taxable income in future years to realize the deferred tax asset
which existed at June 30, 1997. In evaluating the expectation of sufficient
future taxable income, management considered future reversals of temporary
differences and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented, if
required. A valuation allowance was not required at June 30, 1997 because it was
management's assessment that, based on available information, it is more likely
than not that all of the deferred tax asset will be realized. A valuation
allowance will be established in the future to the extent of a change in
management's assessment of the amount of the net deferred tax asset that is
expected to be realized.
GOODWILL. During the second quarter of 1997, the Company consolidated its
sub-prime single-family lending operations within OFS in connection with its
acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Admiral. Goodwill related to
this transaction amounted to $11.0 million at June 30, 1997 and is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 15 years.
DEPOSITS. Deposits increased $278.9 million from December 31, 1996. The
increase in deposits during 1997 was primarily the result of brokered deposits
obtained through national investment banking firms which solicit deposits from
their customers, which amounted to $1.50 billion at June 30, 1997, as compared
to $1.22 billion at December 31, 1996. The Company also obtains deposits through
direct solicitation and marketing efforts to regional and local investment
banking firms, institutional investors and high net worth individuals. Deposits
obtained in this manner amounted to $511.4 million at June 30, 1997, as compared
to $540.6 million at December 31, 1996. At June 30, 1997 the Company had $206.7
million of certificates of deposit in amounts of $100,000 or more, including
$87.3 million of deposits of states and political subdivisions in the U.S. which
are secured or collateralized as required under state law. For additional
information, see "- Liquidity, Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Risks" below.
SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE. Securities sold under
agreements to repurchase decreased $74.5 million to $0 from December 31, 1996 to
June 30, 1997. From time to time, the Company utilizes such collateralized
borrowings as additional sources of liquidity.
NOTES, DEBENTURES AND OTHER INTEREST-BEARING OBLIGATIONS. Notes, debentures
and other interest-bearing obligations increased by $61.4 million from December
31, 1996 to June 30, 1997 primarily as a result of $46.2 million in borrowings
under two new lines of credits established at OFS (see "Liquidity, Commitments
and Off-Balance Sheet Risks") and the issuance of $15.2 million in short-term
notes payable of which $12.4 million was repaid in July 1997. Notes, debentures
and other interest-bearing obligations also consist of $100 million of 12%
Debentures issued in June 1995 and due June 2005, and $125.0 of 11.875% notes
issued in September 1996 and due September 2003.
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY. Stockholders' equity increased by $40.3 million or
20% from December 31, 1996 to June 30, 1997. The increase in stockholders'
equity during this period was primarily attributable to net income of $35.8
million and an increase of $3.6 million in the unrealized gain on securities
available for sale. See the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders'
Equity in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1
hereof.

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

================================================================================
ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
Asset and liability management is concerned with the timing and magnitude
of the repricing of assets and liabilities. It is the objective of the Company
to attempt to control risks associated with interest rate movements. In general,
management's strategy is to match asset and liability balances within maturity
categories to limit the Company's exposure to earnings variations and variations
in the value of assets and liabilities as interest rates change over time. The
Company's asset and liability management strategy is formulated and monitored by
the Asset/Liability Committee, which is composed of directors and officers of
the Company, in accordance with policies approved by the Board of Directors of
the Company. The Asset/Liability Committee meets regularly to review, among
other things, the sensitivity of the Company's assets and liabilities to
interest rate changes, the book and market values of assets and liabilities,
unrealized gains and losses, including those attributable to hedging
transactions, purchase and sale activity, and maturities of investments and
borrowings. The Asset/Liability Committee also approves and establishes pricing
and funding decisions with respect to overall asset and liability composition.
The Asset/Liability Committee is authorized to utilize a wide variety of
off-balance sheet financial techniques to assist it in the management of
interest rate risk. These techniques include interest rate exchange agreements,
pursuant to which the parties exchange the difference between fixed-rate and
floating-rate interest payments on a specified principal amount (referred to as
the "notional amount") for a specified period without the exchange of the
underlying principal amount. Interest rate exchange agreements are utilized by
the Company to protect against the decrease in value of a fixed-rate asset or
the increase in borrowing cost from a short-term, fixed-rate liability, such as
reverse repurchase agreements, in an increasing interest-rate environment. At
June 30, 1997, the Company had entered into interest rate exchange agreements
with an aggregate notional amount of $41.5 million. Interest rate exchange
agreements had the effect of decreasing the Bank's net interest income by
$41,000 and $0 during the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively, and $115,000 and $0 during the six months ended June 30, 1997 and
1996, respectively.
The Company also enters into interest rate futures contracts, which are
commitments to either purchase or sell designated financial instruments at a
future date for a specified price and may be settled in cash or through
delivery. Eurodollar futures contracts have been sold by the Company to hedge
the repricing or maturity risk of certain short duration mortgage-related
securities, and U.S. Treasury futures contracts have been sold by the Company to
offset declines in the market value of its fixed-rate loans and certain
fixed-rate mortgage-backed and related securities available for sale in the
event of an increasing interest rate environment. At June 30, 1997, the Company
had entered into U.S. Treasury futures (short) contracts with an aggregate
notional amount of $197.9 million. The Company had no outstanding Eurodollar
futures contracts at June 30, 1997. Futures contracts had the effect of
decreasing the Bank's net interest income by $205,000 and $161,000 during the
three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and $1.1 million and
$401,000 during the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. See
Note 4 to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1
hereof.
The Asset/Liability Committee's methods for evaluating interest rate risk
include an analysis of the Company's interest rate sensitivity "gap", which is
defined as the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities maturing or repricing within a given time period. A gap is
considered positive when the amount of interest-rate sensitive assets exceeds
the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative
when the amount of interest-rate sensitive liabilities exceeds interest-rate
sensitive assets. During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would
tend to adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap would tend to
result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of falling
interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net
interest income, while a positive gap would tend to affect net interest income
adversely. Because different types of assets and liabilities with the same or
similar maturities may react differently to changes in overall market rates or
conditions, changes in interest rates may affect net interest income positively
or negatively even if an institution were perfectly matched in each maturity
category.
The following table sets forth the estimated maturity or repricing of the
Company's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities at June 30,
1997. The amounts of assets and liabilities shown within a particular period
were determined in accordance with the contractual terms of the assets and
liabilities, except (i) adjustable-rate loans, performing discount loans,
securities and FHLB advances are included in the period in which they are second
scheduled to adjust and not in the period in which they mature, (ii) fixed-rate
37
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
================================================================================
mortgage-related securities reflect estimated prepayments, which were estimated
based on analyses of broker estimates, the results of a prepayment model
utilized by the Company and empirical data, (iii) non-performing discount loans
reflect the estimated timing of resolutions which result in repayment to the
Company, (iv) fixed-rate loans reflect scheduled contractual amortization, with
no estimated prepayments, (v) NOW and money market checking deposits and savings
deposits, which do not have contractual maturities, reflect estimated levels of
attrition, which are based on detailed studies of each such category of deposit
by the Company, and (vi) escrow deposits and other non-interest bearing checking
accounts, which amounted to $102.3 million at June 30, 1997, are excluded.
Management believes that these assumptions approximate actual experience and
considers them reasonable; however, the interest rate sensitivity of the
Company's assets and liabilities in the table could vary substantially if
different assumptions were used or actual experience differs from the historical
experience on which the assumptions are based.

Although interest rate sensitivity gap is a useful measurement and
contributes toward effective asset and liability management, it is difficult to
predict the effect of changing interest rates based solely on that measure. As a
result, and as required by OTS regulations, the Asset/Liability Committee also
regularly reviews interest rate risk by forecasting the impact of alternative
interest rate environments on net interest income and market value of portfolio
equity ("MVPE"), which is defined as the net present value of an institution's
existing assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments, and evaluating
such impacts against the maximum potential changes in net interest income and
MVPE that is authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company.

change in the Company's net interest income over a four-quarter period and MVPE
based upon the indicated changes in interest rates, assuming an instantaneous
and sustained uniform change in interest rates at all maturities.
Change Estimated Change in
(in Basis Points) -------------------------------------
in Interest Rates Net Interest Income MVPE
----------------- ------------------- ------
+400 13.96% (17.78)%
+300 7.59 (11.22)
+200 1.22 (4.53)
+100 3.01 0.35
0 -- --
-100 (3.37) (10.37)
-200 (6.72) (21.99)
-300 (16.81) (25.82)
-400 (26.90) (25.98)
The negative estimated changes in MVPE for -100 to -400 changes in interest
rates is attributable to the Company's sensitivity to decreases in interest
rates. Such sensitivity stems from the Company's investments in IO stripped
mortgage-backed securities. IO strips exhibit considerably more price volatility
than mortgage or ordinary mortgage pass-through securities, due in part to the
uncertain cash flows that result from changes in the prepayment rates of the
underlying mortgages. In the case of IO strips, increased prepayments of the
underlying mortgages as a result of a decrease in market interest rates or other
factors can result in a loss of all or part of the purchase price of such
security. The Company generally attempts to offset the interest rate risk
associated with a particular IO strip by purchasing other securities which
reduce such risk.
Management of the Company believes that the assumptions used by it to
evaluate the vulnerability of the Company's operations to changes in interest
rates approximate actual experience and considers them reasonable; however, the
interest rate sensitivity of the Company's assets and liabilities and the
estimated effects of changes in interest rates on the Company's net interest
income and MVPE could vary substantially if different assumptions were used or
actual experience differs from the historical experience on which they are
based.
LIQUIDITY, COMMITMENTS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISKS
Liquidity is a measurement of the Company's ability to meet potential cash
requirements, including ongoing commitments to fund deposit withdrawals, repay
borrowings, fund investment, loan acquisition and lending activities and for
other general business purposes. The primary sources of funds for liquidity
consist of deposits, FHLB advances, reverse repurchase agreements and maturities
and principal payments on loans and securities and proceeds from sales thereof.
Sources of liquidity include certificates of deposit obtained primarily
from wholesale sources. At June 30, 1997 the Company had $2.06 billion of
39
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
================================================================================
certificates of deposit, including $1.50 billion of brokered certificates of
deposit obtained through national investment banking firms, all of which are
non-cancelable. At the same date scheduled maturities of certificates of deposit
during the 12 months ending June 30, 1998 and 1999 and thereafter amounted to
$845.8 million, $491.7 million and $727.4 million, respectively. Brokered and
other wholesale deposits generally are more responsive to changes in interest
rates than core deposits and, thus, are more likely to be withdrawn from the
Company upon maturity as changes in interest rates and other factors are
perceived by investors to make other investments more attractive. Management of
the Company believes that it can adjust the rates paid on certificates of
deposit to retain deposits in changing interest rate environments, and that
brokered and other wholesale deposits can be both a relatively cost-effective
and stable source of funds. There can be no assurance that this will continue to
be the case in the future, however.
Sources of borrowings include FHLB advances, which are required to be
secured by single-family and/or multi-family residential loans or other
acceptable collateral, and reverse repurchase agreements. Although at June 30,
1997, the Company had FHLB advances outstanding, it was eligible to borrow up to
an aggregate of $170.6 million from the FHLB of New York (subject to the
availability of acceptable collateral) and had $127.2 million of single-family
residential loans, $10.4 million of multi-family residential loans and $33.0
million of loans secured by hotel properties which could be pledged as security
for such advances. At the same date, the Company had contractual relationships
with 12 brokerage firms and the FHLB of New York pursuant to which it could
obtain funds from reverse repurchase agreements and had $148.8 million of
unencumbered mortgage-related securities which could be used to secure such
borrowings.
The liquidity of the Company includes lines of credit obtained by OFS
subsequent to its acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Admiral in a
transaction which closed on may 1, 1997, as follows: (1) a $200.0 million
secured line of credit from Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital Inc. and (ii) a
$50.0 million secured line of credit from Texas Commerce National Association.
An aggregate of $46.2 million was outstanding to OFS under these lines of credit
at June 30, 1997, which have interest rates which float in accordance with a
designated prime rate.
Additionally, the Company is currently exploring obtaining an approximately
$20.0 million line of credit to the Company and an approximately $500.0 million
line of credit to the Bank. If obtained, these lines of credit will enhance the
Company's ability to manage its liquidity and sources of funds to utilize those
which are the most cost effective.
The Company's operating activities provided cash flows of $128.4 million
and $193.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. During the foregoing periods cash resources were provided
primarily by net income, sale of securities held for trading and proceeds from
sales of loans available for sale, and cash resources were used primarily to
purchase and originate loans available for sale.
The Company's investing activities used cash flows totaling $220.1 million
and provided cash flows totaling $89.1 million during the six months ended June
30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. During the foregoing periods, cash flows from
investing activities were provided primarily by principal payments on and sales
of discount loans and loans held for investment, proceeds from sales of
securities available for sale and real estate owned, and cash flows from
investing activities were primarily utilized to purchase and originate discount
loans and loans held for investment and purchase securities available for sale.
The Company's financing activities provided $266.2 million and used $85.8
million during the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Cash
flows from financing activities primarily relate to changes in the Company's
deposits and reverse repurchase agreements.
The Bank is required under applicable federal regulations to maintain
specified levels of "liquid" investments in qualifying types of U.S. Government,
federal agency and other investments having maturities of five years or less.
Current OTS regulations require that a savings association maintain liquid
assets of not less than 5% of its average daily balance of net withdrawable
deposit accounts and borrowings payable in one year or less (which has been
proposed to be reduced to 4%), of which short-term liquid assets must consist of
not less than 1%. Monetary penalties may be imposed for failure to meet
applicable liquidity requirements. The Bank's liquidity, as measured for
regulatory purposes, averaged 5.91% during the six months ended June 30, 1997
and amounted to 8.48% at June 30, 1997.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
================================================================================
At June 30, 1997, the Company had $141.9 million of unfunded commitments
related to purchase and originations of loans. Management of the Company
believes that the Company has adequate resources to fund all of its commitments
to the extent required and that substantially all of such commitments will be
funded during 1997. For additional information relating to commitments and
contingencies at June 30, 1997, see Note 6 to the Interim Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Item 1 hereof.
In addition to commitments to extend credit, the Company is party to
various off-balance sheet financial instruments in the normal course of business
to manage its interest rate risk. See "Asset and Liability Management" above and
Note 4 to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1
hereof.
The Company conducts business with a variety of financial institutions and
other companies in the normal course of business, including counterparties to
its off-balance sheet financial instruments. The Company is subject to potential
financial loss if the counterparty is unable to complete an agreed upon
transaction. The Company seeks to limit counterparty risk through financial
analysis, dollar limits and other monitoring procedures.
REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
Federally-insured savings associations such as the Bank are required to
maintain minimum levels of regulatory capital. These standards generally must be
as stringent as the comparable capital requirements imposed on national banks.
The OTS also is authorized to impose capital requirements in excess of these
standards on individual associations on a case-by-case basis. Based upon recent
discussions with the OTS, the Bank has determined to maintain a core capital
ratio of at least 9% and a total risk-based capital ratio of no less than 13%.
The Bank believes at this time that it will continue to be a "well-capitalized
institution" under OTS regulations. See Note 5 to the Interim Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Item 1 hereof.
In August 1993, the OTS promulgated regulations which incorporate an
interest rate risk component into the OTS risk-based capital requirements, and
in August 1995 the OTS postponed the effectiveness of this regulation after
having previously deferred the effective date several times. Because only
institutions whose measured interest rate risk exceeds certain parameters will
be subject to the interest rate risk capital requirement, management of the Bank
does not believe that this regulation will increase the Bank's risk-based
regulatory capital requirement if it becomes effective in its current form. For
additional information relating to regulatory capital requirements and the
Bank's capital ratios, see Note 5 to the Interim Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Item 1 hereof.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Government, changes in government regulations affecting financial institutions,
including regulatory fees and capital requirements, changes in prevailing
interest rates, acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses, credit
risk management, asset/liability management, the financial and securities
markets and the availability of and costs associated with sources of liquidity.
The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to
publicly release the results of any revisions which may be made to any
forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or
unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
