STATEFED FINANCIAL CORPORATION
ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS
Des Moines, Iowa (NASDAQ: "SFFC") ---- StateFed Financial Corporation, the parent company for State Federal Savings and Loan Association of Des Moines, today announced financial
results for the quarter ended September 30, 2000. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2000, the company reported net income of $324,100 as compared to $245,200 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $78,900, or 32.2%. The increase in net
earnings was primarily due to an increase in net interest income of $179,300, partially offset by a decrease in non-interest income of $6,400, an increase in non-interest expense of $54,500, and an increase in income tax expense of $39,500. The net
interest income increased $179,300 due to an increase of $346,000 in interest income primarily due to an increase of loans receivable and a slight increase in average loan interest rates, offset by an increase of $166,700 due to the additional funds
borrowed from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The $54,500 increase in non-interest expense was due primarily to the expenditure of $45,000 in legal fees due to the proxy fight.
At September 30, 2000, the company had total assets of $102.8 million and total liabilities of $85.9 million, compared to total assets of
$100.7 million and total liabilities of $84.0 million at June 30, 2000. The increase in total assets for the three month period ending September 30, 2000 of $2.1 million was due to an increase in loans receivable of $3.0 million, an increase in office
property and equipment of $403,300, and an increase in Federal Home Loan Bank stock of $98,800, partially offset a decrease in cash and amounts due from depository institutions of $1.2 million, a decrease in investment securities of $247,600, and a
decrease in real estate held for investment of $15,700.
