NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For The Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 1999 and 1998

(Dollars in Thousands)

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. SELECTED ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation:

The foregoing consolidated financial statements are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which consist of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. Results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HF Financial Corp. (the "Company"), its subsidiaries, HomeFirst Mortgage Corp. (formerly known as HF Mortgage Corp.), HF Card Services L.L.C. (HF Card Services) and Home Federal Savings Bank, (the "Bank") and the Bank's subsidiaries.

NOTE 2. REGULATORY CAPITAL

The following table sets forth the Bank's compliance with its capital requirements at December 31, 1999:

	Amount		Percent
Tier I (core) capital:
Required	$	20,450	3.00	%
Actual		41,350	6.07
Excess		20,900	3.07
Risk-based capital:
Required	$	37,709	8.00	%
Actual		47,280	10.03
Excess		9,571	2.03

NOTE 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) during the period. Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three month period ended December 31 1999 and 1998 as adjusted was 3,896,038 and 4,284,121 respectively. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the six month period ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 as adjusted was 3,970,165 and 4,302,085 respectively.

Dilutive earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive options outstanding had been exercised. The weighted average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the three month period ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 as adjusted was 3,966,150 and 4,356,389 respectively. The weighted average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the six month period ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 as adjusted was 4,047,106 and 4,411,153 respectively.

NOTE 4. NEW STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ("SFAS")

The FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". This Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a) a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency-denominated forecasted transaction. The effective date of this Statement was deferred by SFAS No. 137 to require its application for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. Initial application of this Statement should be as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal quarter; on that date, hedging relationships must be designated anew and documented pursuant to the provisions of this Statement. Earlier application of all of the provisions of this Statement is encouraged, but it is permitted only as of the beginning of any fiscal quarter that begins after issuance of this Statement. This Statement should not be applied retroactively to financial statements of prior periods. Management is evaluating the impact of this Statement on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 5. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The management approach is used as the conceptual basis for identifying reportable segments and is based on the way that management organizes the segments within the enterprise for making operating decisions, allocating resources and monitoring performance.

The Company's reportable segments are banking, credit card and other. The "banking" segment is conducted through the subsidiary, Home Federal Savings Bank, and the "credit card" segment is conducted through the subsidiary, HF Card Services, L.L.C. The "other" segment is composed of smaller nonreportable segments, the parent company and inter-segment eliminations.

For expense allocation purposes, income tax expense is allocated only to the Company and the Bank. Total assets for the credit card segment decreased $3.9 million from $13.1 million at June 30, 1999 to $9.2 million at December 31, 1999. The decrease in assets was due to the Company's decision to cease processing credit card applications in March 1999.

Item 2.

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

General

HF Financial Corp. ("Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in November 1991 for the purpose of owning all of the outstanding stock of Home Federal Savings Bank ("Bank") issued in the mutual to stock conversion of the Bank. The Company acquired all of the stock of the Bank on April 8, 1992. In May 1996, the Company formed a Limited Liability Company named HF Card Services L.L.C. ("HF Card Services") and became the owner of 51% of this entity. The Company became the owner of 100% of HF Card Services effective as of July 1998. The activities of the Company itself have no significant impact on the results of operations on a consolidated basis. Unless otherwise indicated, all activities discussed herein relate to the Company, and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including without limitation, the Bank, HF Card Services and HomeFirst Mortgage Corp. ("Mortgage Corp.").

HF Card Services was established to provide secured, partially-secured and unsecured credit cards nationwide. The target market for HF Card Services was subprime credit customers who have either an insufficient credit history or a negative credit history and are unable to obtain a credit card from more traditional card issuers.

The Company's net income is primarily dependent upon the difference (or "spread") between the average yield earned on loans, mortgage-backed securities and investments and the average rate paid on deposits and borrowings, as well as the relative amounts of such assets and liabilities. The interest rate spread is affected by regulatory, economic and competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand and deposit flows. The Company, like other financial institutions, is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice at different times, or on a different basis, than its interest-earning assets. To better insulate itself from such risk, the Company has, over the last few years, attempted to increase both numerically and on a percentage basis its holding of consumer and commercial loans. The Company has also decreased its ratio of fixed-rate to adjustable-rate loans. The Company's net income is also affected by, among other things, gains and losses on sales of foreclosed property, loans, mortgage-backed securities and securities available for sale, provisions for losses on loans, service charge fees, subsidiary activities, operating expenses and income taxes.

This discussion and analysis contains certain forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "anticipates," "will," and "intends," or comparable terminology. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Potential purchasers of the Company's securities are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements which are qualified in their entirety by the cautions and risks described herein and in other reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Year 2000

The Year 2000 issue is whether computer systems will properly recognize date-sensitive information when the year changes to 2000. Systems that do not properly recognize such information could generate erroneous data or cause a system to fail. The Bank is heavily dependent on computer processing in its business activities and the Year 2000 issue creates risk for the Bank from unforeseen problems in the Bank's computer system and from third parties with whom the Bank processes financial information. Such failures of the Bank's computer system and/or third parties' computer systems could have a material impact on the Bank's ability to conduct its business.

In May 1997, the Company developed a five-step plan that follows the guidelines as specified by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Councils. As this council provides new requirements, the plan is modified to reflect the new requirements. Management of the Company is updated at least monthly on the status of the plan and the Bank's Information Systems Steering Committee has changed from a quarterly meeting to a bi-monthly meeting to be more proactive on Year 2000. In addition, the Board of Directors of the Company is updated on the status of the Year 2000 project on a quarterly basis at its regularly scheduled meetings or as circumstances may change requiring new information to be shared with the Board of Directors. The five stages of the plan are as follows: awareness, assessment, renovation, validation and implementation. The awareness and assessment phases were completed by December 31, 1997. The assessment phase included hardware, software and third party vendors that provide a service to the Company (i.e. utility companies, alarm companies, payroll providers, electronic funds transfer providers, insurance providers, loan participation companies, mortgage loan secondary market agencies, and governmental agencies). The renovation, validation and implementation phases are completed as planned. All mission critical systems known to be non-compliant with Year 2000 have been renovated as of June 30, 1999. In May 1996, the Bank installed new hardware and operations systems software that the vendor has represented to be Year 2000 compliant. Testing has been completed and verified for the Bank's core processing system for the dates of September 9, 1999, December 31, 1999, January 2, 2000, February 29, 2000, March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000. All mission critical PC software applications have been tested for all specific dates as determined by the Federal Financial Institution Examination Council's guidelines. In addition, testing will be performed with service providers that are providing the capability to test with the Bank. The Company will continue its Year 2000 plan in 1999 by continually monitoring updates as provided by vendors.

The Bank has in place Board of Director approved contingency plans for all software and hardware providers. In addition, contingency plans are also written for all outside service providers. These contingency plans are now under review for adequacy and if applicable, will be tested. The Bank is also involved in a customer awareness and employee education program regarding Year 2000.

The Bank completed a Board of Director approved cash liquidity plan. This plan contains various strategies to meet the projected cash demands as the millennium nears.

The cost of the corrections to make the systems Year 2000 compliant was less than $65,000. Approximately $20,000 was incurred in fiscal 1998 with an additional $45,000 incurred in fiscal 1999. In addition, approximately 2,000 man-hours were incurred during fiscal 1999 by Bank personnel related to Year 2000 issues that had an estimated cost of $60,000. In management's opinion, additional man-hours expected to be incurred by Bank personnel related to Year 2000 are immaterial and will be charged against income as they are incurred. The Bank sees no further major expenditures that are Year 2000 related.

The Bank had a team of employees in on December 31, 1999 and January 1, 2000 to verify all systems and validate data. The verification and validation was successful with no difficulties encountered.

Financial Condition Data

At December 31, 1999, the Company had total assets of $686.7 million, an increase of $28.1 million from the level at June 30, 1999. The increase in assets was due primarily to an increase in loans receivable of $16.4 million and mortgage-backed securities of $14.3 million. The increase in loans receivable and mortgage-backed securities was funded primarily by an increase in advances from Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") and other borrowings of $33.4 million from the levels at June 30, 1999. In addition, stockholders' equity decreased from $48.6 million at June 30, 1999 to $46.6 million at December 31, 1999, primarily due to the purchase of treasury stock of $3.2 million and the payment of cash dividends of $798,000 which was partially offset by net income of $2.6 million.

The increase in loans receivables of $16.4 million was due primarily to purchases and originations of principal exceeding amortizations and prepayments of principal.

The increase in mortgage-backed securities of $14.3 million was primarily the result of purchases exceeding sales, amortizations and prepayments of principal. The Bank purchased thirty year, fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities in the amount of $19.9 million during the six months ended December 31, 1999.

The $1.9 million decrease in securities available for sale was primarily the result of sales, maturities and calls of $12.5 million exceeding purchases of $11.1 million. The Bank's purchases of securities available for sale were comprised primarily of U.S. government agency securities which have a maturity of five years or less that have a call feature that varies from three months to two years.

The decrease in loans held for sale of $5.6 million was due to a decline in loans originated for sale into the secondary market at December 31, 1999.

The $3.4 million decrease in deposits was primarily due to a decrease in savings accounts of $21.6 million offset by an increase in money market accounts of $11.0 million and certificates of deposit of $5.3 million. As of December 31, 1999, the Bank had total deposits from local governmental entities of $78.4 million compared to $86.4 million at June 30, 1999.

Advances from the FHLB and other borrowings increased $33.4 million for the six month period ended December 31, 1999 primarily due to the Company obtaining new advances in the amount of $162.5 million which were partially offset by payments of $129.1 million on advances and other borrowings during the six month period ended December 31, 1999.

Analysis of Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents the difference between income on interest-earning assets and expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates earned or paid on them.

Average Balances, Interest Rates and Yields. The following table presents for the periods indicated the total dollar amount of interest income from average interest-earning assets and the resulting yields, as well as the interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, expressed both in dollars and rates, and the net interest margin. The table does not reflect any effect of income taxes. All average balances are monthly average balances and include the balances of nonaccruing loans. The yields and costs for the three and six months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 include fees which are considered adjustments to yield.

Rate/Volume Analysis of Net Interest Income

The following schedule presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the increases and decreases due to fluctuating outstanding balances that are due to the levels and volatility of interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Asset Quality

In accordance with the Bank's internal classification of assets policy, management evaluates the loan portfolio on a monthly basis to identify loss potential and determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The following table sets forth the amounts and categories of the Bank's nonperforming assets for the periods indicated.

	Nonperforming Assets As Of
	December 31, 1999			June 30, 1999
	(Dollars in Thousands)

Total nonperforming assets	$	1,747		$	3,157

Ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets		0.25	%		0.48	%

Ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans(1)		0.31	%		0.52	%

(1): Nonperforming loans include nonaccruing loans and loans delinquent more than 90 days.
(2): Total foreclosed assets does not include land held for development.

When a loan becomes 90 days delinquent, except for credit card loans, the Bank places the loan on a nonaccrual status and, as a result, accrued interest income on the loan is taken out of income. Income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received until, in management's judgment, the borrower's ability to make periodic interest and principal payments is no longer in doubt, in which case the loan is returned to accrual status. Credit card loans remain in accrual status until 120 days, when accrued interest income on the loan is taken out of income.

Nonperforming assets decreased from $3.2 million at June 30, 1999 to $1.7 million at December 31, 1999, a decrease of $1.4 million. In addition, the ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets, which is one indicator of credit risk exposure, decreased to 0.25% at December 31, 1999 from 0.48% at June 30, 1999.

Nonaccruing loans decreased from $1.0 million at June 30, 1999 to $697,000 at December 31, 1999, a decrease of $348,000. Included in nonaccruing loans at December 31, 1999 were six loans totaling $153,000 secured by one- to four-family real estate, one loan totaling $131,000 secured by commercial business, four mobile home loans totaling $14,000, thirty-one consumer loans totaling $391,000 and one agriculture loan totaling $8,000. For the six months ended December 31, 1999, gross interest income of $129,000 would have been recognized on loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis had such loans been current in accordance with their original terms. Gross interest income of $160,000 was recognized as income on loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis.

Accruing credit card loans delinquent more than 90 days decreased from $1.6 million at June 30, 1999 to $935,000 at December 31, 1999. Additionally, $2.8 million of credit card loans were delinquent 30 days at December 31, 1999 as compared to $5.2 million at June 30, 1999. Management reviewed the level of credit card delinquencies, and the loan underwriting criteria and collection procedures in the credit card portfolio and ceased processing credit card applications under the current underwriting criteria in March 1999. Net charge-offs for the six months ended December 31, 1999 were $6.3 million as compared to $1.6 million for the same period in fiscal 1999. Using historical stratification data on the current product, management expects credit card loan write-offs not to exceed $6.0 million in the next six months. Of this amount about 72% will be a charge-off against allowance for credit card loan losses, of which the Company currently maintains an allowance for credit card loan losses equal to 31% of the outstanding credit card loan balance, or about $4.0 million. The remaining 28% will be charged against deferred credit card fee income, interest income and credit card fee income in future periods. Based upon lack of performance, the Company ceased processing subprime credit card applications in March 1999.

Foreclosed assets decreased from $464,000 at June 30, 1999 to $115,000 at December 31, 1999, a decrease of $349,000.

At December 31, 1999, the Bank had approximately $8.6 million of other loans of concern that management has determined need to be closely monitored because of possible credit problems of the borrowers or the cash flows of the secured properties. These loans were considered in determining the adequacy of the allowance for possible loan losses. The allowance for possible loan losses is established based on management's evaluation of the risks inherent in the loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of loan activity. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans for which full collectability may not be reasonably assured, considers the estimated fair market value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss allowance. Although the Bank's management believes that the December 31, 1999 recorded allowance for loan losses was adequate to provide for potential losses on the related loans, there can be no assurance that the allowance existing at December 31, 1999 will be adequate in the future.

The following table sets forth information with respect to activity in the Bank's allowance for loan losses during the periods indicated.

(2): Excludes allowance for loan losses relating to mobile home loans and credit card loans.

The allowance for loan losses was $8.9 million at December 31, 1999 as compared to $12.0 million at June 30, 1999. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.70% at December 31, 1999 and 2.32% at June 30, 1999. The Bank's management has considered nonperforming assets and other assets of concern in establishing the allowance for loan losses. The Bank continues to monitor its allowance for possible loan losses and make future additions or reductions in light of the level of loans in its portfolio and as economic conditions dictate.

The current level of the allowance for loan losses is a result of management's assessment of the risks within the portfolio based on the information revealed in credit reporting processes. The Company utilizes a risk-rating system on all commercial business, agricultural, construction and multi-family and commercial real estate loans, including purchased loans, that exceed $250,000. A monthly credit review is performed on all types of loans to establish the necessary reserve based on the estimated risk within the portfolio. This assessment of risk takes into account the composition of the loan portfolio, historical loss experience for each loan category, previous loan experience, concentrations of credit, current economic conditions and other factors that in management's judgment deserve recognition. In regard to credit card loans, the Company is providing a reserve of 35% of the loan balance until the credit card portfolio becomes seasoned. As of December 31, 1999, $4.0 million of the $8.9 million allowance for loan losses was reserved for the credit card loan portfolio. Regulators have reviewed the Company's methodology for determining allowance requirements on the Company's loan portfolio and have made no recommendations for increases in the allowances during the six month period ended December 31, 1999 and year ended June 30, 1999. The Company has historically maintained a positive variance from the minimum estimated allowance for loan losses based on the analyses that are conducted by Bank management and corporate credit personnel.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998

General. The Company's net income increased $264,000 to $2.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $2.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 1998. As discussed in more detail below, this increase was due primarily to an increase in net interest income of $1.0 million and a decrease in noninterest expense of $125,000 which were partially offset by an increase in provision for losses on loans of $280,000, a decrease in noninterest income of $420,000 and an increase in income tax expense of $206,000.

Interest Income. Interest income increased $2.7 million to $25.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 1999 from $22.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 1998. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets and was partially offset by a decrease in the average yield of interest-earning assets. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $88.1 million when comparing the six months ended December 31, 1999 to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased from 8.39% to 8.07% for the six months ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.7 million to $13.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 1999 from $12.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 1998. This increase was largely attributable to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $100.1 million and was partially offset by a decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The average rates on interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 4.87% to 4.60% for the six months ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

Net Interest Income. The Company's net interest income for the six months ended December 31, 1999 increased $1.0 million, or 9.9%, to $11.6 million compared to $10.6 million for the same period in fiscal 1999. The net interest spread on average interest-earning assets remained relatively stable at 3.47% and 3.52% for the periods ended December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively. The increase in the net interest income is primarily due to the $88.1 million increase in interest-earning assets at December 31, 1999 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

During the six months ended December 31, 1999, the Company increased its average balances of commercial and consumer loans. The Company anticipates activity in this type of lending to continue in future years, subject to market demand. In addition, the Company sells the majority of conventional single-family residential real estate loan originations into the secondary market. Net interest income is expected to trend upward as a result of this lending activity as interest rate yields are generally higher on these types of loans compared to the yield provided by conventional single-family residential real estate loans. This lending activity is considered to carry a higher level of risk due to the nature of the collateral and the size of the individual loans. As such, the Company anticipates continued increases in its allowance for loan losses.

Provision for Losses on Loans. During the six months ended December 31, 1999, the Company recorded a provision for losses on loans of $3.5 million as compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 1998. The provision for losses on loans of $3.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 1999 compared to the same period in fiscal 1999 is primarily due to management's continued evaluation of the loan portfolio in light of general economic conditions. See "Asset Quality" for further discussion.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income was $8.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $9.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 1998, a decrease of $420,000.

The decrease in credit card fee income of $438,000 million for the six months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to the same period in fiscal 1999 is primarily due to a decrease in fees received on unsecured credit cards. This is a result of the credit card portfolio decreasing from to $19.4 million at December 31, 1998 as compared to $12.9 million at December 31, 1999. The fee income represents processing fees, interchange fees, annual fees, late fees and other miscellaneous fees. This credit card program was initiated in fiscal 1997. The Company ceased processing credit card applications in March 1999. This will continue to decrease the level of these fees. Interest income on credit card loans is included in interest income on loans.

The decrease in other income of $284,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to the same period in fiscal 1999 was primarily due to a decrease in minority interest of $472,000 partially offset by an increase in commission and insurance income of $196,000.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense decreased $125,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to last year primarily due to a decrease in credit card processing expenses of $1.4 million and increase in compensation and employee benefits of $886,000 and other general and administrative expenses of $164,000.

There was a decrease of $1.4 million in the cost of third party processors of credit cards. This expense represents costs for processing of applications, collecting loans and marketing costs for the acquisition of credit cards for the unsecured credit card program. The Company began offering credit cards in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 and ceased processing subprime credit card applications in March 1999.

The increase in compensation and employee benefits was due primarily to an increase in employee compensation of $423,000 paid to employees from new bank branches opened or acquired during the last half of fiscal 1999.

Income tax expense. The Company's income tax expense for the six months ended December 31, 1999 was $1.4 million as compared to $1.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of $206,000. This increase was primarily due to the increase in the Company's income before income tax.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998

General. The Company's net income increased $169,000 to $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998. As discussed in more detail below, this increase was due primarily to an increase in net interest income of $405,000 and a decrease in noninterest expense of $86,000 which were partially offset by a decrease in noninterest income of $237,000 and an increase in income tax expense of $113,000.

Interest Income. Interest income increased $1.4 million to $13.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999 from $11.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets and was partially offset by a decrease in the average yield of interest-earning assets. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $85.2 million when comparing the three months ended December 31, 1999 to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The average yield on interest-earning assets decreased from 8.36% to 8.13% for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.0 million to $7.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999 from $6.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998. This increase was largely attributable to an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $98.7 million and was partially offset by a decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The average rates on interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 4.80% to 4.68% for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

Net Interest Income. The Company's net interest income for the three months ended December 31, 1999 increased $405,000, or 7.5%, to $5.8 million compared to $5.4 million for the same period in fiscal 1999. The net interest spread on average interest-earning assets decreased from 3.56% to 3.44% for the periods ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999, respectively. The increase in the net interest income is primarily due to the $85.2 million increase in interest-earning assets at December 31, 1999 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

During the three months ended December 31, 1999, the Company increased its average balances of commercial and consumer loans. The Company anticipates activity in this type of lending to continue in future years, subject to market demand. In addition, the Company sells the majority of conventional single-family residential real estate loan originations into the secondary market. Net interest income is expected to trend upward as a result of this lending activity as interest rate yields are generally higher on these types of loans compared to the yield provided by conventional single-family residential real estate loans. This lending activity is considered to carry a higher level of risk due to the nature of the collateral and the size of the individual loans. As such, the Company anticipates continued increases in its allowance for loan losses.

Provision for Losses on Loans. For both of the three months ended December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 respectively, the Company recorded a provision for losses on loans of $1.7 million. The provision for losses on loans of $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999 compared to the same period in fiscal 1999 is primarily due to management's continued evaluation of the loan portfolio in light of general economic conditions. See "Asset Quality" for further discussion.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income was $4.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998, a decrease of $237,000.

The decrease in credit card fee income of $22,000 million for the three months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to the same period in fiscal 1999 is primarily due to a decrease in fees received on unsecured credit cards. This is a result of the credit card portfolio decreasing from to $19.4 million at December 31, 1998 as compared to $12.9 million at December 31, 1999. The fee income represents processing fees, interchange fees, annual fees, late fees and other miscellaneous fees. This credit card program was initiated in fiscal 1997. The Company ceased processing credit card applications in March 1999. This will continue to decrease the level of these fees. Interest income on credit card loans is included in interest income on loans.

The decrease in other income of $435,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to the same period in fiscal 1999 was primarily due to a decrease in minority interest of $502,000 partially offset by an increase in fees on deposits of $110,000 and commission and insurance income of $70,000.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense decreased $86,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1999 as compared to last year primarily due to a decrease in credit card processing expenses of $711,000 and increase in compensation and employee benefits of $503,000 and other general and administrative expenses of $41,000.

There was a decrease of $711,000 in the cost of third party processors of credit cards. This expense represents costs for processing of applications, collecting loans and marketing costs for the acquisition of credit cards for the unsecured credit card program. The Company began offering credit cards in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 and ceased processing subprime credit card applications in March 1999.

The increase in compensation and employee benefits was due primarily to an increase in employee compensation of $207,000 paid to employees from new bank branches opened or acquired during the last half of fiscal 1999.

Income tax expense. The Company's income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 1999 was $691,000 as compared to $578,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of $113,000. This increase was primarily due to the increase in the Company's income before income tax.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, FHLB advances, amortization and prepayments of loan principal (including mortgage-backed securities) and, to a lesser extent, sales of mortgage loans, sales and/or maturities of securities, mortgage-backed securities, and short-term investments. While scheduled loan payments and maturing securities are relatively predictable, deposit flows and loan prepayments are more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions, and competition. The Bank attempts to price its deposits to meet its asset/liability objectives consistent with local market conditions. Excess balances are invested in overnight funds.

Federal regulations have historically required the Bank to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets. The required percentage has varied from time to time based upon economic conditions and savings flows and is currently 4% of net withdrawable savings deposits and current borrowings. Liquid assets for purposes of this ratio include cash, certain time deposits, U.S. government and corporate securities and other obligations generally having remaining maturities of less than five years. The Bank has historically maintained its liquidity ratio at a level in excess of that required by these regulations. At December 31, 1999, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 7.03%.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term responsibility of management. The Bank adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon management's assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) projected loan sales, (iii) expected deposit flows, (iv) yields available on interest-bearing deposits, and (v) the objectives of its asset/liability management program. Excess liquidity is invested generally in interest-bearing overnight deposits and other short-term government and agency obligations. During the six months ended December 31, 1999, the Bank required funds beyond its ability to generate funds internally. Thus it used its borrowing capacity with the FHLB by obtaining advances, which increased its borrowings with the FHLB by $33.4 million. See "Financial Condition Data" for further discussion.

The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments. At December 31, 1999, the Bank had outstanding commitments to originate or purchase loans of $35.4 million and to sell loans of $8.2 million. At December 31, 1999, the Bank had commitments to purchase securities of $2 million and no commitments to sell securities.

Although deposits are the Bank's primary source of funds, the Bank's policy has been to utilize borrowings where the funds can be invested in either loans or securities at a positive rate of return or to use the funds for short term liquidity purposes. See "Financial Condition Data" for further analysis.

The Company currently has in effect a stock buy back program in which up to 10% of the common stock of the Company outstanding on April 21, 1999 may be acquired through April 30, 2000. A total of 132,500 shares of common stock were purchased pursuant to this current program and were purchased during the three months ended December 31, 1999 and a total of 243,637 shares of common stock have been purchased pursuant to this program from inception through December 31, 1999. Pursuant to a series of stock buy back programs initiated by the Company since 1996 the Company has purchased an aggregate of 927,209 shares of common stock through December 31, 1999.

Savings institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation are required by the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA") to meet three regulatory capital requirements. If a requirement is not met, regulatory authorities may take legal or administrative actions, including restrictions on growth or operations or, in extreme cases, seizure. Institutions not in compliance may apply for an exemption from the requirements and submit a recapitalization plan. Under these capital requirements, at December 31, 1999, the Bank met all current capital requirements.

The Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") has adopted a core capital requirement for savings institutions comparable to the requirement for national banks. The OTS core capital requirement is 3% of total adjusted assets for thrifts that receive the highest supervisory rating for safety and soundness. The Bank had core capital of 6.07% at December 31, 1999.

Pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Insurance Act ("FDICIA"), the federal banking agencies, including the OTS, have also proposed regulations authorizing the agencies to require a depository institution to maintain additional total capital to account for concentration of credit risk and the risk of non-traditional activities. No assurance can be given as to the final form of any such regulation.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Bank's operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Bank are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Bank's performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest rate risk is the most significant market risk affecting the Company. Other types of market risk, such as foreign exchange rate risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Company's business activities.

The composition of the Bank's balance sheet results in maturity mismatches between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The scheduled maturities of the Bank's fixed rate interest-earning assets are longer than the scheduled maturities of its fixed rate interest-bearing liabilities. This mismatch exposes the Bank to interest rate risk. In a rising rate scenario, as measured by the OTS interest rate risk exposure simulation model, the estimated market or portfolio value ("PV") of the Bank's assets would decline in value to a greater degree than the change in the PV of the Bank's liabilities, thereby reducing net portfolio value ("NPV"), the estimated market value of its shareholders' equity.

As of June 30, 1999, under a rate shock scenario of plus 200 basis points ("bp"), the Bank's pre-shock NPV ratio (NPV as a % of PV of assets) was estimated in the OTS model to be 9.86%. The post-shock NPV ratio was estimated to be 9.57%, a decline of 29bp. As of September 30, 1999, the most recent report available, the Bank's sensitivity to interest rate changes increased slightly. The post-shock ratio for a 200 bp decrease in market interest rates as of September 30, 1999 was estimated to be 9.28%, a decrease of 54bp from the pre-shock NPV ratio estimate of 9.82%.

In managing market risk and the asset/liability mix, the Bank has placed its emphasis on developing a portfolio in which, to the extent practicable, assets and liabilities reprice within similar periods. The effect of this policy will generally be to reduce the Bank's sensitivity to interest rate changes. The goal of this policy is to provide a relatively consistent level of net interest income in varying interest rate cycles and to minimize the potential for significant fluctuations from period to period.
