1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies followed by First Midwest Financial, Inc.
("First Midwest" or the "Company") and its consolidated subsidiaries,
First Federal Savings Bank of the Midwest ("First Federal"), Security
State Bank ("Security"), First Services Financial Limited and Brookings
Service Corporation, for interim reporting are consistent with the
accounting policies followed for annual financial reporting. All
adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a
fair presentation of the results for the periods reported have been
included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The accompanying financial statements do not purport to contain all the
necessary financial disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles that might otherwise be necessary in the
circumstances and should be read in conjunction with the Company's
consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, for the year
ended September 30, 1999.
2. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is based on net income divided by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share shows the dilutive effect of additional common
shares issuable under stock options.
A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used in the basic
earnings per common share and the diluted earnings per common share
computations for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2000

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
FIRST MIDWEST FINANCIAL, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
GENERAL
First Midwest Financial, Inc. ("First Midwest" or the "Company") is a bank
holding company whose primary assets are First Federal Savings Bank of the
Midwest ("First Federal") and Security State Bank ("Security"). The Company was
incorporated in 1993 as a unitary non-diversified savings and loan holding
company and, on September 20, 1993, acquired all of the capital stock of First
Federal in connection with First Federal's conversion from mutual to stock form
of ownership. On September 30, 1996, the Company became a bank holding company
in conjunction with the acquisition of Security.
The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of the
Company and its subsidiaries, at June 30, 2000, compared to September 30, 1999,
and the consolidated results of operations for the three months and nine months
ended June 30, 2000, compared to the same period in 1999. This discussion should
be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements, and
notes thereto, for the year ended September 30, 1999.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets decreased by $4.4 million, or 0.86%, from $511.2 million at
September 30, 1999, to $506.8 million at June 30, 2000. The decrease was
attributable to a decrease in the Company's portfolio of securities available
for sale, which declined by $26.8 million, as a result of repayments on
mortgage-backed securities and the sale of securities in a restructuring of the
balance sheet. Proceeds from the repayments and sales of securities were used to
repay Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings, which declined $13.7 million,
and to fund an $18.1 million increase in net loans receivable. During the
period, the deposit portfolio increased by $8.5 million.
Cash and cash equivalents increased $2.5 million, or 47.7%, to $7.9 million at
June 30, 2000, from $5.4 million at September 30, 1999. The increase was
primarily due to a temporary increase in in-transit deposit items at resulting
from a high level of customer deposit activity at period end. Subsequent to
period end, cash and cash equivalent balances have returned to more normal
levels.
The portfolio of securities available for sale decreased $26.8 million, or
15.0%, to $151.7 million at June 30, 2000, from $178.5 million at September 30,
1999. The decrease resulted partly from the sale of securities totaling $15.9
million during the period in a restructuring of the balance sheet, which
involved the sale of lower yielding securities, the reinvestment of proceeds
into higher yielding loans, and the repayment of FHLB borrowings. In addition,
the decrease resulted from maturities and principal repayments received on
securities during the period and the adjustment of the carrying value of
securities available for sale to market value in accordance with SFAS 115.
The portfolio of net loans receivable increased by $18.1 million, or 6.0%, to
$321.2 million at June 30, 2000, from $303.1 million at September 30, 1999. The
increase was due to a $26.0 million increase in multi-family residential
mortgage loans and commercial real estate loans and a $2.0 million increase in
consumer loans during the period. This increase was partially offset by a $3.7
million decline in single-family residential mortgage loans, a $2.8 million
decrease in commercial business loans, and a $3.0 million decrease in
agricultural loans.

<PAGE>
Deposit balances increased by $8.5 million, or 2.8%, to $313.3 million at June
30, 2000, from $304.8 million at September 30, 1999. The increase in deposit
balances resulted from a $10.8 million increase in certificates of deposit,
which was partially offset by decreases in checking accounts, money market
accounts and savings accounts in the amounts of $835,000, $349,000 and $1.2
million, respectively. The decline in transactional accounts reflects the
transfer of short-term deposits into higher yielding certificates of deposit as
interest rates have generally increased during the period. In addition, the
reduction in checking accounts results from a seasonal reduction in the balances
carried by our agricultural customers.
The balance in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines decreased
by $13.7 million, or 8.5%, to $147.6 million at June 30, 2000 from $161.3
million at September 30, 1999. The decrease in FHLB advances resulted from
repayments using funds generated by the sale, maturity and repayment of
securities available for sale, and by deposit portfolio growth during the
period. During the period, the Company transferred $15.0 million of existing
FHLB advances to a third party, which was treated as a repayment of the
advances.
Total shareholders' equity decreased $1.2 million, or 3.1%, to $38.5 million at
June 30, 2000 from $39.8 million at September 30, 1999. The decrease in
shareholders' equity was due to the purchase of treasury stock, an increase in
unrealized loss on securities available for sale in accordance with SFAS 115,
and the payment of cash dividends to shareholders in an aggregate amount that
exceeded net earnings during the period.
NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Generally, when a loan becomes delinquent 90 days or more, or when the
collection of principal or interest becomes doubtful, the Company will place the
loan on non-accrual status and, as a result of this action, previously accrued
interest income on the loan is taken out of current income. The loan will remain
on non-accrual status until the loan has been brought current, or until other
circumstances occur that provide adequate assurance of full repayment of
interest and principal.
The following table sets forth the Company's loan delinquencies by type, before
allowance for loan losses, by amount and by percentage of type at June 30, 2000.
At June 30, 2000, loans delinquent 30 days and over totaled 1.16% of total loans
as compared to 1.59% at September 30, 1999.

At June 30, 2000, commercial and multi-family real estate loans delinquent 30
days and over totaled $943,000, or 0.28% of the total loan portfolio as compared
to $1.5 million, or 0.50% of total loans at September 30, 1999. Multi-family and
commercial real estate loans generally present a higher level of risk than loans
11
<PAGE>
secured by one- to four-family residences. This greater risk is due to several
factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans
and borrowers, the effect of general economic conditions on income producing
properties and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types
of loans. The majority of the Company's delinquent commercial and multi-family
real estate loans have been purchased as participations with other lenders, are
serviced by other lenders and are secured by properties outside the Company's
primary market area. These loans are being closely monitored by management,
however, there can be no assurance that all loans will be fully collectible.
At June 30, 2000, agricultural operating loans delinquent 30 days and over
totaled $1.7 million, or 0.50% of the total loan portfolio as compared to
$501,000, or 0.16% of total loans at September 30, 1999. Agricultural lending
involves a greater degree of risk than one- to four-family residential mortgage
loans because of the typically larger loan amounts. In addition, payments on
loans are dependent on the successful operation or management of the farm
property securing the loan or for which an operating loan is utilized. The
success of the loan may also be affected by factors outside the control of the
agricultural borrower, such as the weather and grain and livestock prices.
Although management believes the Company's portfolio of agricultural real estate
and operating loans is well structured and adequately secured, there can be no
assurance that all loans will be fully collectible.
The table below sets forth the amounts and categories of non-performing assets
in the Company's loan portfolio. Foreclosed assets include assets acquired in

For the three months ended June 30, 2000, gross interest income which would have
been recorded had the non-accruing loans been current in accordance with their
original terms amounted to approximately $31,000 of which none was included in
interest income.
Other Loans of Concern. At June 30, 2000, there were loans totaling $5.6 million
not included in the table above where known information about possible credit
problems of borrowers caused management to have concern as to the ability of the
12
<PAGE>
borrower to comply with the present loan repayment terms. This amount consisted
of six one- to four-family residential real estate loans totaling $220,000, one
commercial real estate loan totaling $905,000, eight commercial business loans
totaling $1.4 million, thirteen consumer loans totaling $135,000, and sixteen
agricultural loans totaling $2.9 million. At September 30, 1999, other loans of
concern totaled $3.9 million.
Classified Assets. Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans
and other assets as "substandard", "doubtful" or "loss", based on the level of
weakness determined to be inherent in the collection of the principal and
interest. When loans are classified as either substandard or doubtful, the
Company may establish general allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed
prudent by management. General allowances represent loss allowances which have
been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending
activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to
particular problem loans. When assets are classified as loss, the Company is
required either to establish a specific allowance for loan losses equal to 100%
of that portion of the loan so classified, or to charge-off such amount. The
Company's determination as to the classification of its loans and the amount of
its valuation allowances are subject to review by its regulatory authorities,
whom may require the establishment of additional general or specific loss
allowances.
On the basis of management's review of its loans and other assets, at June 30,
2000, the Company had classified a total of $5.9 million of its assets as
substandard, $471,000 as doubtful and none as loss as compared to
classifications at September 30, 1999 of $5.9 million substandard, $142,000
doubtful and none as loss.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company establishes its provision for loan
losses, and evaluates the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses based upon a
systematic methodology consisting of a number of factors including, among
others, historic loss experience, the overall level of non-performing loans, the
composition of its loan portfolio and the general economic environment within
which the Bank and its borrowers operate.
Current economic conditions in the agricultural sector of the Company's market
area indicate potential weakness due to growing conditions and historically low
commodity prices. Near drought conditions exist in a limited portion of the
Company's agricultural market area, which has the potential to reduce crop
yields in these areas. Growing conditions are good in the majority of the
Company's agricultural market area and normal or better yields are expected in
these areas. Price levels for grain crops have generally been depressed since
mid-1998 and currently remain at historically low levels. Grain crop prices are
not expected to increase significantly in the near term. Livestock prices have
improved in recent months and are currently at levels that present minimal
concern. The agricultural economy is accustomed to commodity price fluctuations
and is generally able to handle such fluctuations without significant problem.
Although the Company underwrites its agricultural loans based on the current
level of commodity prices, an extended period of low commodity prices or adverse
growing conditions could result in weakness in the agricultural loan portfolio
that may create a need for the Company to increase its allowance for loan losses
through increased charges to the provision for loan losses.
At June 30, 2000, the Company has established an allowance for loan losses
totaling $3.5 million. The allowance represents approximately 268% of the total
non-performing loans at June 30, 2000 as compared to 138% at September 30, 1999.

The following table sets forth an analysis of the activity in the Company's
allowance for loan losses:

Recoveries 119
Additions charged to operations 995
-------

Based on currently available information, management believes the allowance for
loan losses is adequate to absorb currently anticipated losses in the portfolio.
Future additions to the allowance for loan losses may become necessary based
upon changing economic conditions, increased loan balances or changes in the
underlying collateral of the loan portfolio.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General. For the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Company recorded net
income of $354,000 compared to net income of $757,000 for the same period in
1999. For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, net income was $1,879,000
compared to $2,425,000 for the same period in 1999. For both periods, the
reduction in net income was primarily due to the loss on sale of securities
available for sale, net of gains on the transfer of FHLB advances, incurred
during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 in a restructuring of the balance sheet.
In addition, net income was reduced by the recognition of a permanent decline in
market value on certain securities available for sale. Net income for the
nine-month period in 1999 was enhanced by the recognition of a net gain on sales
of securities available for sale.
Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 increased by $829,000, or 9.4%, to $9,672,000,
compared to $8,843,000 during the same period in 1999. For the nine months ended
June 30, 2000, interest and dividend income increased $2,433,000, or 9.3%, to
$28,622,000 from $26,189,000 for the same period in 1999. The increase for both
periods was primarily due to higher balances in interest earning assets during
the 2000 periods compared to the previous year as a result of increased
purchases of securities available for sale and the increased origination and
purchase of loans. To a lesser extent, interest income increased during the
periods in 2000 due to an overall increase in the yield on interest earning
assets as the general level of interest rates increased compared to the previous
year.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense for the three months ended June 30,
2000 increased by $686,000, or 12.3%, to $6,264,000 from $5,578,000 during the
same period in 1999. For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, interest expense
increased $1,774,000, or 10.8%, to $18,167,000 from $16,393,000 for the same
period in 1999. The increase in interest expense for both periods reflects a
higher average balance in deposit accounts during the 2000 period due to
internal growth of the deposit portfolio. In addition, the increase reflects an
increase in borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank used to fund the purchase
of securities available for sale and the origination and purchase of loans.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased by $143,000, or 4.4%, to
$3,408,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from $3,265,000 for the same
period in 1999. For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, net interest income
increased $658,000, or 6.7%, to $10,454,000 from $9,796,000 for the same period
14
<PAGE>
in 1999. The increase in net interest income for both periods was due to the
overall increase in net interest earning assets between the comparable periods.
In addition, for the nine-month period, the increase in net interest income was
due to an increase in the spread between interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities.
Provision for Loan Losses. For the three-month and nine-month periods ended June
30, 2000, the provision for loan losses was $400,000 and $995,000, respectively.
For the comparable periods in 1999, the provision for loan losses was $299,000
and $900,000, respectively. Management believes that, based on a detail review
of the loan portfolio, historic loan losses, current economic conditions, and
other factors, the current level of provision for loan losses, and the resulting
level of the allowance for loan losses, reflects an adequate allowance against
currently anticipated losses from the loan portfolio.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2000
reflects a net loss of $595,000. This compares to noninterest income of $449,000
for the same period in 1999. Noninterest income for the nine months ended June
30, 2000 was $134,000 as compared to $1,543,000 for the same period in 1999. The
reduction in noninterest income for both periods is primarily due to the loss on
sale of securities available for sale in the amount of $1,018,000. The loss was
incurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 primarily as the result of a
restructuring of the balance sheet that involved the sale of lower yielding
securities, the reinvestment of part of the proceeds into higher yielding loans,
and the repayment of some borrowings. The loss on sale of securities also
includes the recognition of a permanent decline in market value on certain
securities available for sale during the quarter ended June 30, 2000.
Noninterest income for the nine-month period in 1999 was enhanced by the
recognition of a gain on the sale of securities available for sale totaling
$331,000.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $207,000, or 9.7%, to
$2,347,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, from $2,140,000 for the
same period in 1999. For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, noninterest
expense increased $629,000, or 9.9%, to $7,005,000 from $6,376,000 for the same
period in 1999. The increase in noninterest expense for both periods reflects an
increase in employee compensation and benefits expense due primarily to the
addition of personnel and the enhancement of expertise in existing positions to
support current and anticipated growth of the Company. In addition, increases in
occupancy and equipment expense and data processing expense reflects the
Company's on-going effort to maintain and enhance its technology systems for the
efficient delivery of products and customer service.
Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $64,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2000 as compared to $518,000 for the same period in 1999. For the nine
months ended June 30, 2000, income tax expense was $1,061,000 as compared to
$1,638,000 in 1999. The decrease for both periods reflects the decrease in the
level of taxable income between the comparable periods.
Extraordinary Item. During the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Company
recognized a gain on the transfer of FHLB advances totaling $352,000, net of
related income taxes. The transfer of FHLB advances was in conjunction with a
restructuring of the balance sheet wherein lower yielding securities were sold
with the proceeds reinvested in higher yielding loans and used to repay
borrowings.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, principal and
interest payments on loans, investments and mortgage-backed securities, and
funds provided by operations. While scheduled payments on loans, mortgage-backed
securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of
funds, deposit flows and early loan repayments are greatly influenced by general
interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

Federal regulations require First Federal to maintain minimum levels of liquid
assets. Currently, First Federal is required to maintain liquid assets of at
least 4% of the average daily balance of net withdrawable savings deposits and
borrowings payable on demand in one year or less during the preceding calendar
quarter. Liquid assets for purposes of this ratio include cash, certain time
deposits, U.S. Government, government agency and corporate securities and
obligations, unless otherwise pledged. First Federal has historically maintained
its liquidity ratio at levels in excess of those required. First Federal's
regulatory liquidity ratios at June 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, were 9.2%
and 9.1%, respectively.
The Company uses its capital resources principally to meet ongoing commitments
to fund maturing certificates of deposits and loan commitments, to maintain
liquidity, and to meet operating expenses. At June 30, 2000, the Company had
commitments to originate and purchase loans totaling $14.9 million. The Company
believes that loan repayment and other sources of funds will be adequate to meet
its foreseeable short- and long-term liquidity needs.
Regulations require First Federal to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of
tangible capital and leverage capital to average assets, and risk-based capital
to risk-weighted assets. The following table sets forth First Federal's actual

Forward-Looking Statements
The Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Federal and Security, may
from time to time make written or oral "forward-looking statements," including
statements contained in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
in its reports to shareholders, and in other communications by the Company,
which are made in good faith by the Company pursuant to the "safe harbor"
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements include statements with respect to the
Company's beliefs, expectations, estimates, and intentions, that are subject to
significant risks and uncertainties, and are subject to change based on various
factors, some of which are beyond the Company's control. Such statements address
the following subjects: future operating results; customer growth and retention;
loan and other product demand; earnings growth and expectations; new products
and services; credit quality and adequacy of reserves; technology; and our
employees. The following factors, among others, could cause the Company's
financial performance to differ materially from the expectations, estimates, and
intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements: the strength of the
United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in
which the Company conducts operations; the effects of, and changes in, trade,
monetary, and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the
Federal Reserve Board; inflation, interest rate, market, and monetary
fluctuations; the timely development of and acceptance of new products and
services of the Company and the perceived overall value of these products and
services by users; the impact of changes in financial services' laws and
regulations; technological changes; acquisitions; changes in consumer spending
and saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks involved
in the foregoing.
The foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. Additional discussion of factors
affecting the Company's business and prospects is contained in the Company's
periodic filings with the SEC. The Company does not undertake, and expressly
disclaims any intent or obligation, to update any forward-looking statement,
whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of
the Company.

I. Financial Information
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
Market Risk
The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and changes in the
market value of its investments.
The Company currently focuses lending efforts toward originating and purchasing
competitively priced adjustable-rate loan products and fixed-rate loan products
with relatively short terms to maturity. This allows the Company to maintain a
portfolio of loans that will be sensitive to changes in the level of interest
rates while providing a reasonable spread to the cost of liabilities used to
fund the loans.
The Company's primary objective for its investment portfolio is to provide the
liquidity necessary to meet loan funding needs. This portfolio is used in the
ongoing management of changes to the Company's asset/liability mix, while
contributing to profitability through earnings flow. The investment policy
generally calls for funds to be invested among various categories of security
types and maturities based upon the Company's need for liquidity, desire to
achieve a proper balance between minimizing risk while maximizing yield, the
need to provide collateral for borrowings, and to fulfill the Company's
asset/liability management goals.
The Company's cost of funds responds to changes in interest rates due to the
relatively short-term nature of its deposit portfolio. Consequently, the results
of operations are generally influenced by the level of short-term interest
rates. The Company offers a range of maturities on its deposit products at
competitive rates and monitors the maturities on an ongoing basis.
The Company emphasizes and promotes its savings, money market, demand and NOW
accounts and, subject to market conditions, certificates of deposit with
maturities of six months through five years, principally from its primary market
area. The savings and NOW accounts tend to be less susceptible to rapid changes
in interest rates.
In managing its asset/liability mix, the Company, at times, depending on the
relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and
consumer preference, may place somewhat greater emphasis on maximizing its net
interest margin than on strictly matching the interest rate sensitivity of its
assets and liabilities. Management believes that the increased net income which
may result from an acceptable mismatch in the actual maturity or repricing of
its asset and liability portfolios can, during periods of declining or stable
interest rates, provide sufficient returns to justify the increased exposure to
sudden and unexpected increases in interest rates which may result from such a
mismatch. The Company has established limits, which may change from time to
time, on the level of acceptable interest rate risk. There can be no assurance,
however, that in the event of an adverse change in interest rates the Company's
efforts to limit interest rate risk will be successful.
Net Portfolio Value The Company uses a Net Portfolio Value ("NPV") approach to
the quantification of interest rate risk. This approach calculates the
difference between the present value of expected cash flows from assets and the
present value of expected cash flows from liabilities, as well as cash flows
from off-balance-sheet contracts. Management of the Company's assets and
liabilities is performed within the context of the marketplace, but also within
limits established by the Board of Directors on the amount of change in NPV that
is acceptable given certain interest rate changes.
18
<PAGE>
Presented below, as of June 30, 2000, is an analysis of the Company's interest
rate risk as measured by changes in NPV for an instantaneous and sustained
parallel shift in the yield curve, in 100 basis point increments, up and down
200 basis points. As illustrated in the table, the Company's NPV is more
sensitive to increasing rate changes than declining rates. This occurs primarily
because, as rates rise, the market value of the Company's fixed-rate loans and
mortgage-backed securities declines due both to the interest rate increase and
the related slowing of prepayments. When rates decline, the Company does not
experience a significant rise in market value for these loans and
mortgage-backed securities because borrowers prepay at relatively higher rates.
The value of the Company's deposits and borrowings change in approximately the
same proportion in rising and falling interest rate scenarios.

</TABLE>
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the
foregoing table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have
similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees
to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types
of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest
rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market
rates. Additionally, certain assets such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, have
features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over
the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates,
prepayments and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate from those assumed
in calculating the tables. Finally, the ability of some borrowers to service
their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. The Company
considers all of these factors in monitoring its exposure to interest rate risk.
