PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified
in its entirety by the detailed information and financial statements, including
notes thereto, included elsewhere in this Prospectus.
Guaranty Financial Corporation ("Guaranty") is the holding company for
Guaranty Savings and Loan, F.A. (the "Bank"), a federally chartered savings
association that is converting to a Virginia chartered bank. The Bank is 15
years old, operates four branches in the City of Charlottesville and Albemarle
County, Virginia, and plans to open a fifth branch in Harrisonburg, Virginia in
the spring of 1997. Guaranty is the only community bank or savings and loan
headquartered or operating in Charlottesville or Albemarle County. At June 30,
1996, Guaranty had grown to assets of $110.2 million, deposits of $74.7 million
and tangible stockholders' equity of $6.4 million, or $6.91 per share. In the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, net income increased 71.0% to $643,000 from
$376,000 in fiscal 1995 and, with 69.4% more average shares outstanding,
earnings per share were constant at $.70. The return on average assets and
average equity increased from 0.41% to 0.64% and from 9.67% to 10.24% from 1995
to 1996. At June 30, 1996, deposits were up 42.4% from June 30, 1995, and, at
June 30, 1996 the leverage ratio was 6.01% down from 6.72% at June 30, 1995. In
order to support asset and deposit growth and to facilitate approval of its
conversion from a federal thrift to a state bank, management intends to increase
its equity to asset ratio to approximately 9.00% which is more in line with
banks of similar size.
Guaranty has filed applications to convert from a federal savings
association to a Virginia-chartered bank. If such applications are approved,
Guaranty anticipates that the conversion will occur in February, 1997. Guaranty
does not anticipate that the charter conversion will have any material short
term effect on its business or results of operations. Capital requirements of
banks and savings associations are essentially the same. Guaranty's FDIC
insurance assessment would not change as the result of a charter conversion.
Guaranty would conduct this Offering to support its anticipated growth even if
it were not seeking to convert to a bank charter.
Guaranty is expanding its loan and deposit products in an effort to
improve its net interest margin. Certain of those new products, including
commercial loans and commercial checking accounts, in Guaranty's opinion, are
not considered traditional thrift products. Guaranty's strategy is that it will
be better able to market such products if it operates as a bank. Office of
Thrift Supervision ("OTS") regulations that currently govern Guaranty limit the
percentage of its assets that may be invested in commercial and consumer loans.
While Guaranty does not believe that such limits would affect its commercial and
consumer lending activities in the short run, after a charter conversion, OTS
regulations would not apply to Guaranty. As a bank, no comparable commercial or
consumer lending restrictions would apply to Guaranty.
In the past, Guaranty has been primarily a residential mortgage lender.
Recently, Guaranty has begun to offer consumer, small business, home equity and
commercial loans and has recently hired commercial and consumer loan officers.
Consumer and commercial lending involve risks that differ from those presented
by residential mortgage lending. See "Business - Credit Policies." The business
strategy in converting from a savings and loan to a commercial bank is to
increase Guaranty's net interest margin and performance ratios. In 1996, the net
interest margin was 2.54%, up from 2.38% in 1995, but still was significantly
below average bank levels.
Guaranty's special assessment in connection with recently enacted
federal legislation to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund
("SAIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") was a one-time
charge against earnings of $347,000 pre-tax, $225,000 after taxes, in the
quarter ended September 30, 1996. Without the special one-time assessment,
Guaranty would have earned $192,000 or $.21 per share for the quarter ended
September 30, 1996, a 24.0% increase from the comparable quarter last year.
Assets at September 30, 1996 were $115.2 million, a 21.1% increase over the
prior year. The net interest margin increased to 2.66% for the quarter ended
September 30, 1996, up from 2.56% in the comparable quarter of the prior year.
The FDIC deposit insurance premium on SAIF insured deposits will be reduced from
the prior annual rate of $2.60 per $1,000 of deposits to a new estimated annual
rate of $.64 per $1,000 of deposits in calendar 1997. Based on deposits of
$78.656 million at September 30,
-4-
<PAGE>
1996, this reduction would decrease insurance costs and increase annual income
by approximately $154,000 pre-tax and $102,000 after taxes. With Guaranty's
significant growth in deposits in fiscal 1996 and in anticipation of further
deposit growth from two additional branch offices opened in December and
scheduled to open in the spring of 1997, management believes future reductions
in deposit insurance assessments will offset the one-time special assessment in
less than three years.
The directors of Guaranty have agreed with the Underwriter to a
standard requirement not to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common
Stock for a period of 120 days after the commencement of the Offerings without
the prior written consent of the Underwriter. It is anticipated that the
Underwriter will not give its consent to any sales or dispositions during this
period that, in its opinion, may have an adverse effect on the market price of
the Common Stock. After the expiration of the 120 day period, sales of Common
Stock by these individuals may have an adverse effect on the market price of the
Common Stock. Officers of Guaranty who are not directors have not entered into
any agreements restricting sales of their Common Stock in Guaranty. See
"Underwriting."

(1) The one-time SAIF assessment in the September 30, 1996 quarter
increased non-interest expenses by $347,000 and reduced net income by
$225,000 and earnings per share by $.25 per share. Excluding the SAIF
assessment, net income and earnings per share would have been $192,000
and $.21, respectively, for the September 30, 1996 quarter, compared
with net income of $155,000 and earnings per share of $.17 for the
September 30, 1995 quarter, increases of 24.3% and 23.5%, respectively.
(2) Guaranty paid a semi-annual cash dividend on its Common Stock of $.05
per share in June 1996, which was the first dividend paid since July
1993, when Guaranty paid a dividend of $.25 per share on its Common
Stock. Guaranty anticipates paying dividends on a semi-annual basis in
the future.
(3) Net interest income dividend by total average earnings assets.
(4) Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans, restructured loans,
and foreclosed properties. As of September 30, 1996, Guaranty had
total nonperforming assets of $1.67 million. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations - Loan Portfolio."

<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information in this Prospectus, prospective
investors should carefully consider the following factors relating to Guaranty
and the Common Stock offered hereby.
Conditions to Conversion to a Bank Charter
Guaranty has filed applications to convert the Bank from a
federally-chartered savings association to a Virginia-chartered, Federal Reserve
member, commercial bank. There is no assurance that the federal or state banking
regulators will approve such a charter conversion or that any such approval will
not contain conditions that would require Guaranty to substantially modify the
Bank's balance sheet or operations. In particular, Guaranty expects that
approval of such applications will be conditioned on the sale of substantially
all of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby and that the federal or state
banking regulators will require Guaranty, over time, to reduce its ratio of
loans-to-deposits, which was 109.5% at September 30, 1996. See "Business -
Supervision and Regulation - Charter Conversion."
In the past, Guaranty has been primarily a residential mortgage lender.
Recently, it began expanding its consumer lending and has increased its emphasis
on commercial real estate lending. Additionally, Guaranty has begun to offer
commercial business loans. Commercial loan and consumer loan departments have
been staffed by loan officers with prior lending experience. Consumer and
commercial lending involve risks that differ from those presented by residential
mortgage lending. See "Business Credit Policies". There can be no assurance that
Guaranty will be able to effectively manage such risks or that it will be able
to effectively compete in these areas with other lenders, many of which have
more capital, experience and established customer relationships.
Impact of New Fixed Assets, Market Expansion and Asset Growth
Until December 1996, Guaranty's operations center was located at its
Seminole Trail branch, which opened in 1983. Guaranty purchased its Seminole
Trail branch for $1.15 million in June 1996. Guaranty completed and opened a new
20,000 square foot combined operations center and fourth retail branch in the
Pantops area in east Charlottesville in December 1996 at a total cost of
approximately $2.4 million. Guaranty has purchased land in Harrisonburg,
Virginia on which it will build a fifth branch office, which is scheduled to
open in the spring of 1997. The investment in land, building and equipment for
such branch office is expected to be approximately $750,000. Investments in
fixed assets reduce Guaranty's ratio of interest earning assets to interest
bearing liabilities, which adversely affects net interest income. If Guaranty's
new branch offices do not generate significant amounts of new deposits and
loans, Guaranty's profitability will be adversely affected.
To date, no employees have been hired to staff the Harrisonburg office.
Harrisonburg is a highly competitive banking area with average bank deposits per
branch similar to the Charlottesville market. No assurances can be given that
Guaranty will be able to compete effectively in the Harrisonburg, Virginia
market with only one branch office location.
It is the intention of Guaranty's management to expand Guaranty's asset
base. In particular, Guaranty hopes to utilize the capital raised in the
Offering to increase its retail deposit base in Charlottesville and Albemarle
County, Virginia and begin operations in Harrisonburg, Virginia. Additional
capital also would increase Guaranty's legal lending limit under federal law,
which in turn would allow Guaranty to diversify its loan mix by competing more
actively in its market area for commercial real estate, business and consumer
loans, which carry higher interest rates than residential mortgage loans.
Management is expanding Guaranty's commercial and consumer loan origination
activities. See "Guaranty Financial Corporation." Guaranty's ability to manage
growth successfully will depend on its ability to maintain cost controls and
asset quality while attracting sufficient loans and deposits, as well as on
factors beyond Guaranty's control, such as economic conditions and interest rate
-7-
<PAGE>
trends. If Guaranty grows too quickly and is not able to control costs and
maintain asset quality, Guaranty's growth could materially adversely affect its
financial performance.
Dependence on Borrowings
At September 30, 1996, Guaranty's total loans were 109.5% of its
deposits, with the difference between total loans and total deposits funded by
advances from the FHLB of Atlanta and other short term borrowings. Reliance on
short term borrowings can adversely affect an institution's ability to manage
its interest rate risk and limits its ability to respond to new loan demand.
Although the Bank will remain a member of the FHLB of Atlanta, Guaranty intends
to reduce its reliance on borrowings and its ratio of loans-to-deposits by
replacing FHLB advances from anticipated deposit growth at new and existing
offices..
Impact of Fluctuations in Interest Rates
Guaranty's results of operations are highly influenced by the level of
interest rates, changes in interest rates and other economic conditions that are
beyond the control of Guaranty, including monetary and fiscal policies of the
federal government. Guaranty is in a liability-sensitive interest rate position
in which rising interest rates are likely to adversely affect earnings because
Guaranty's liabilities will reprice faster than its assets. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -
Interest Sensitivity." Increases in interest rates adversely affect Guaranty by
reducing the demand for loans, while decreases in interest rates generally
stimulate mortgage lending. Interest rate increases above the interest rate caps
on Guaranty's adjustable rate loans would restrict interest income. Economic
conditions in the real estate market influence both the demand for loans and the
frequency of delinquencies and losses incurred on the sale of foreclosed real
estate.
Potential Consequences of Undersubscribed Offering
The Underwriter is selling the Shares on a best efforts basis, which
means that it may sell all, none or only some of the Shares. As there is no
minimum number of Shares which must be sold, a closing could occur even if only
a small number of Shares is sold and it is possible that expenses of the
Offering will exceed proceeds. See "Underwriting." In such event, Guaranty may
be required to pursue other methods of raising capital, including the sale of
preferred stock.
Possible Fluctuations in Stock Price
Factors such as quarterly or cyclical variations in Guaranty's
financial results, future developments concerning Guaranty or its competitors,
and developments affecting the thrift and banking industry generally, could
cause the market price of the Common Stock to fluctuate substantially.
Geographic Concentration of Loan Portfolio
The majority of Guaranty's loans are made to borrowers within
Charlottesville and Albemarle County, and adjacent areas. Accordingly,
significant deterioration in the economic condition of Charlottesville,
Albemarle County or the surrounding areas could significantly adversely affect
repayment of the loans held by Guaranty.
Competition
Guaranty's full-service retail facilities primarily serve the City of
Charlottesville and Albemarle County, Virginia. See "Business - Market Area."
Guaranty operates in a highly competitive environment in Charlottesville and
Albemarle County, competing for deposits and loans with commercial banks and
other financial institutions, including four statewide and two regional
commercial banks that possess substantially greater financial resources than
Guaranty. These institutions have significantly higher lending limits than
-8-
<PAGE>
Guaranty and provide various services for their customers, such as trust
services, which Guaranty does not offer. In addition, there can be no assurance
that additional financial institutions with substantially greater resources than
Guaranty will not establish operations in Guaranty's service area. See "Business
- - Competition."
Governmental Regulation
Institutions such as Guaranty are subject to extensive supervision and
regulation by the OTS and the FDIC. This supervision and regulation establishes
a comprehensive framework of activities in which an institution may engage, and
are intended primarily for the protection of the SAIF and depositors. This
regulatory structure also provides the OTS and the FDIC with significant
discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities. Any
change in such regulation, whether by the OTS or the FDIC, or any new
legislation enacted by the United States Congress, could adversely affect the
thrift industry generally and the operations of Guaranty in particular. See
"Business - Supervision and Regulation."
Influence by Certain Existing Shareholders
As of the date of this Prospectus, Guaranty's directors and executive
officers own approximately 40.07% of Guaranty's outstanding Common Stock. See
"Management - Security Ownership of Management." As a result, Guaranty's
directors and executive officers, if acting together, are able to influence
significantly all matters requiring approval by the shareholders of Guaranty,
including the election of directors and, accordingly, the future course of
Guaranty. Guaranty, however, has neither solicited nor received any commitments
from its directors and executive officers to purchase shares of Common Stock in
the Offering. While it expects its directors and executive officers will
purchase such shares in the Offering, Guaranty is not aware of the number of
shares that the directors and executive officers will purchase, but anticipates
that the percentage of ownership by Management will decrease immediately
following the completion of the Offering.
USE OF PROCEEDS
If the 500,000 shares of the Common Stock described in this Prospectus
and the 75,000 additional shares for which Guaranty reserves the right to offer
are purchased, the total proceeds to Guaranty are estimated to be approximately
$4.5 million. Guaranty will invest the net proceeds from the sale of such Common
Stock in the Bank to provide additional capital, and for general banking
purposes, including loans and investments. Additional capital will enhance the
Bank's ability to grow and attract more loans and deposits. As its additional
branch offices open, Guaranty anticipates substantial growth and, although
current capital is within current federal regulatory guidelines, additional
capital is required for the Bank to support anticipated growth. Although
Guaranty would conduct the Offering to support its anticipated growth even if it
were not seeking to convert the Bank from a federal savings association to a
commercial bank, it expects that the applications that it has filed for the
conversion, if approved, will be conditioned on the sale of substantially all of
the shares offered hereby.

GUARANTY FINANCIAL CORPORATION
Guaranty is the holding company for Guaranty Savings and Loan, F.A.
(the "Bank"), a federally chartered savings association which began business in
February 1981 and is headquartered in Charlottesville, Virginia. Guaranty opened
additional branches in 1983 and 1985 in Charlottesville and Albemarle County,
Virginia. At June 30, 1996, after 15 years of operation, Guaranty had grown to
assets of $110.2 million, deposits of $74.7 million and stockholders' equity of
$6.35 million, or 5.76% of total assets. A new corporate headquarters in the
Pantops area, east of Charlottesville, which contains the operations area and a
fourth branch office opened in December 1996, and a fifth branch in
Harrisonburg, Virginia is expected to open in the spring of 1997.
Management intends to convert the Bank from a federal savings
association to a Virginia chartered, Federal Reserve member, bank. Applications
for a charter conversion have been filed with the appropriate state and federal
bank regulatory agencies. The Bank has recently begun to offer consumer loans
and government-insured and conventional small business loans. The Bank has also
recently hired experienced commercial and consumer loan officers.
In the year ended June 30, 1996, Guaranty had a 71.0% increase in net
income. Earnings per share on 69.4% more average shares outstanding in fiscal
1996 than fiscal 1995 remained constant at $.70 per share. The return on average
assets and average equity increased from .41% to .64% and from 9.67% to 10.24%
from 1995 to 1996. Core deposits increased by 42.4%; assets by 23.0% and loan
originations by 9.19% from June 30, 1995 to June 30, 1996. At June 30, 1996
total assets were $110.2 million and tangible stockholders' equity was $6.35
million, or $6.91 per share. Net income for the year ended June 30, 1996 was
$643,000.
Guaranty's net income in the year ended June 30, 1995 was $376,000 and
Guaranty experienced a loss of $480,000 in the year ended June 30, 1994. Results
of operations in fiscal 1995 and 1994 were adversely affected by a low level of
capital, which effectively precluded asset growth, and by significant amounts of
interest expense incurred as certain mortgage-backed bonds, issued in 1987, were
prepaid. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations Interest Income, Interest Expense and Net Interest
Income."
In September 1996, Federal legislation was enacted to recapitalize the
Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"), of which the Bank is a member. All
depository institutions with SAIF-insured deposits paid a special assessment to
the SAIF and, beginning in the first calendar quarter of 1997, quarterly
insurance assessments on SAIF-insured deposits will be substantially reduced.
The Bank has experienced significant growth in core deposits since March 31,
1995, which is the base date for the calculation of the one-time special
assessment. As such, the Bank's assessment was a one-time charge against
earnings of $347,000 pre-tax, $225,000 after taxes, in the quarter ended
September 30, 1996. Without the special one-time assessment, Guaranty would have
earned $192,000 or $.21 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, a
24.3% increase from the comparable quarter last year. Assets at September 30,
1996 were $115.2 million, a 21.1% increase over the prior year. The net interest
margin increased to 2.66% for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, up from
2.56% in the comparable quarter of the prior year. The FDIC deposit insurance
premium on SAIF insured deposits will be reduced from the prior annual rate of
$2.60 per $1,000 of deposits to a new estimated annual rate of $.64 per $1,000
of deposits in calendar 1997. Based on deposits of $78.656 million at September
30, 1996, this reduction would decrease insurance costs and increase annual
income by approximately $154,000 pre-tax and $108,000 after taxes. With
Guaranty's significant growth in deposits in fiscal 1996 and in anticipation of
further deposit growth from two additional branch offices opened in December and
scheduled to open in the spring of 1997, management believes future reductions
in deposit insurance assessments will offset the one-time special assessment in
less than three years.
Guaranty is the only independent community bank or savings and loan
association headquartered in, or even with an office in, Charlottesville or
Albemarle County, Virginia. This area had a collective population of
approximately 108,000 in 1990 according to census figures, is located in central
Virginia 110 miles southwest of
-11-
<PAGE>
Washington, D.C. and 70 miles west of Richmond, Virginia, and includes the
University of Virginia, the area's largest employer. Guaranty operates three
full service retail branches, which serve Charlottesville and Albemarle County.
Historically, Guaranty's principal business activities have been
attracting checking and savings deposits from the general public through its
retail banking offices and originating, servicing, investing in and selling
loans secured by first mortgage liens on single-family dwellings, including
condominium units. Of Guaranty's $88.0 million of gross loans outstanding at
June 30, 1996, 80% represented residential first mortgages and 66.1% of gross
loans had adjustable interest rates.
In 1996, Guaranty began to originate commercial loans to small
businesses and has placed additional emphasis on consumer lending. Guaranty also
lends funds to retail banking customers by means of home equity and installment
loans, and originates loans secured by commercial properly and multi-family
dwellings. Guaranty invests in certain United States government and agency
obligations and other investments as permitted by applicable laws and
regulations.
Until December 1996, Guaranty's operations center was located at its
Seminole Trail branch, which opened in 1983. Guaranty completed and opened a
combined branch office and operations center in December 1996. The new facility
is located on the east side of Charlottesville in the Pantops area of Albemarle
County. The new facility contains 20,000 sq. ft., of which Guaranty occupies
15,500 sq. ft., with the remainder to be leased. In addition, Guaranty has
acquired land in Harrisonburg, Virginia to construct a fifth retail branch. It
is anticipated that the branch will open in the spring of 1997. Guaranty would
continue to operate its three current branches, including the Seminole Trail
branch. See "Risk Factors - New Fixed Assets."
Guaranty's deposit accounts of up to $100,000 are insured by the
Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") administered by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Guaranty is a member of the Federal Home Loan
Bank ("FHLB") of Atlanta. Guaranty is subject to the supervision, regulation and
examination of the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") and the FDIC. See
"Business - Supervision and Regulation."
The directors of Guaranty have agreed with the Underwriter to a
standard requirement not to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common
Stock for a period of 120 days after the commencement of the Offerings without
the prior written consent of the Underwriter. It is anticipated that the
Underwriter will not give its consent to any sales or dispositions during this
period that, in its opinion, may have an adverse effect on the market price of
the Common Stock. After the expiration of the 120 day period, sales of Common
Stock by those individuals may have an adverse effect on the market price.
Officers of Guaranty who are not directors have not entered into any agreements
restricting sales of their Common Stock in Guaranty. See "Underwriting."
Guaranty's main offices are located at 1658 State Farm Boulevard,
Charlottesville, Virginia 22911 and its telephone number is (804) 970-1100.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following commentary discusses major components of Guaranty's
business and presents an overview of its consolidated results of operations
during the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 and the fiscal years
ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, and its consolidated financial position at
such dates. This discussion should be reviewed in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and other statistical
information presented elsewhere in this Prospectus.
Guaranty is not aware of any current recommendations by regulatory
authorities which, if implemented, would have a material effect on its
liquidity, capital resources or results of operations. There are no agreements
between Guaranty and either the OTS or the FDIC, nor has either regulatory
agency made any recommendations concerning the operations of Guaranty that could
have a material effect on its liquidity, capital resources or results of
operations.
Overview
Guaranty's performance in its fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 showed
improvement over the year ended June 30, 1995. Net income increased 71.0% in
fiscal 1996 to $643,000 compared to $376,000 in fiscal 1995. After a 69.4%
increase in average shares outstanding, following a 360,000 share public
offering completed on June 22, 1995, earnings per share were constant at $.70.
Excluding a one-time special assessment on SAIF members by the FDIC, Guaranty's
net income increased 23.9% to $192,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996
compared to $155,000 in the comparable prior year quarter. Due to this one-time
special assessment, Guaranty sustained a loss of $33,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1996. Excluding the assessment, earnings per share increased
23.5%, from $.17 in the September 30, 1995 quarter to $.21 in the September 30,
1996 quarter. Loan volume growth accelerated in the September 30, 1996 quarter,
although securities growth continued to outpace loan growth as an investment
outlet for continued strong deposit growth. The increase in net income for
fiscal 1996 reflected an increase in net interest income and non-interest
income, coupled with a decrease in non-interest expense. Net interest income
increased as a result of growth in average deposits, supporting an increase in
securities and a reduction in FHLB advances, a reduction in the rates paid on
FHLB advances and an increase in the average yields on average loans. Growth in
average loans did not keep pace with deposit or investment securities growth.
Non-interest income increased primarily from an increase in gains on the sale of
loans and securities while noninterest expenses declined, primarily from the
closing of two mortgage origination offices in Staunton and Richmond which were
not profitable. The FDIC deposit insurance premium on SAIF insured deposits will
be reduced from the prior annual rate of $2.60 per $1,000 of deposits to a new
estimated annual rate of $.64 per $1,000 of deposits in calendar 1997. Based on
deposits of $78.656 million at September 30, 1996, this reduction would decrease
deposit insurance costs and increase annual income by approximately $154,000
pre-tax and $108,000 after taxes. With Guaranty's significant growth in deposits
in fiscal 1996 and in anticipation of further deposit growth from two additional
branch offices opened in December and scheduled to open in the spring of 1997,
management believes future reductions in deposit insurance assessments will
offset the one-time special assessment in less than three years.
Return on average equity during fiscal 1996 increased to 10.24% from
9.67% for fiscal 1995. The return on average assets was 0.64% in fiscal 1996,
compared to 0.41% in fiscal 1995. Fiscal 1996 marked the first year since 1989
that Guaranty's average earning assets have increased meaningfully over the
prior fiscal year. From 1989 through fiscal 1995, due to capital constraints,
management was forced to downsize the Bank. In fiscal 1992 and 1993 under
declining interest rates, spreads widened and gains on loan sales increased,
although interest earning assets declined. In fiscal years 1994 and 1995 first
increases then decreases in the amortization of the discount associated with
Guaranty's REMIC bonds produced losses in 1994 and improvements in 1995 although
interest earning assets continued to decline or remained flat.
Average interest earning assets increased 6.9% from $89.42 million in
fiscal 1995 to $95.57 million in fiscal 1996. Total interest bearing deposits on
average increased 13.8% from $54.43 million in fiscal 1995 to $61.93 million in
-14-
<PAGE>
fiscal 1996. Average balances of securities increased 40.2% while, on average,
loans were relatively flat, up only 2.0% from fiscal 1995 to fiscal 1996.
The net interest margin benefited from an increase in the average level
of interest earning assets and from a greater increase in the yield on interest
earning assets than the increase in the average rates paid on interest bearing
liabilities. The significant growth in interest bearing deposits coupled with a
decline in the amount and rate paid on FHLB advances and an increase in the
amount of interest earning assets, particularly securities, and an increase in
the average yields earned on loans, produced the improvement in net interest
margin. In fiscal 1996, the net interest margin was 2.54%, up from 2.38% in
fiscal 1995 and 1.68% in fiscal 1994.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the major component of Guaranty's earnings and
is equal to the amount by which interest income exceeds interest expense.
Earning assets consist primarily of loans and securities, while deposits and
borrowings represent the major portion of interest bearing liabilities. Changes
in the volume and mix of assets and liabilities, as well as changes in the
yields and rates paid, determine changes in net interest income. The net
interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income by average earning
assets and represents Guaranty's net interest margin.
Net interest income was $716,000 in the quarter ended September 30,
1996, 25.6% greater than the $570,000 reported during the September 30, 1995
quarter. This improvement in net interest income was primarily due to volume
increases in the securities and loan portfolios and to a greater decline in the
average cost of interest bearing liabilities than the decline in the average
yield of interest earning assets. Although average loans increased 13.0% from
the September 30, 1995 quarter to the September 30, 1996 quarter, average loan
volume did not keep pace with securities volume increases. The average balance
of the securities portfolio was $16.252 million in the September 30, 1996
quarter, up $7.058 million, or 76.8% over the September 30, 1995 quarter. The
average balance of the loan portfolio was $86.373 million, up $9.934 million, or
13.0% over the September 30, 1995 quarter. Although market interest rates
declined in the September 30, 1996 quarter from the September 30, 1995 quarter,
the yield on average loans decreased only 6 basis points from 8.12% in 1995 to
8.06% in 1996, while the yield on securities declined 24 basis points from 8.14%
in 1995 to 7.90% in 1996. Also contributing to the improvement in net interest
income in the September 30, 1996 quarter was a decline of 46 basis points on the
cost of average total interest bearing liabilities from 5.91% in the September
30, 1995 quarter to 5.45% in the September 30, 1996 quarter. Almost all of this
decline was concentrated in the cost of FHLB advances and other borrowings,
which declined 86 basis points from 6.40% in 1995 to 5.54% in 1996, although the
average balances of such advances and borrowings were flat. All of the increase
in interest bearing liabilities, up $21.540 million, or 25.6%, was accounted for
by the increase in interest bearing deposits, particularly certificates of
deposit, which increased $22.045 million, or 55.0% on average. The average rate
paid on interest bearing deposits increased 4 basis points, from 5.05% to 5.09%,
although the average rate paid on certificates of deposit declined 22 basis
points from 5.80% to 5.58%. The increase in net interest margin was achieved
from both volume gains and widening spreads. The gains in average deposit
volumes, particularly certificates of deposit, supported an increase in
investment securities and loans while yields on interest earning assets declined
less than the average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. The yields on
loans fell significantly less than the cost of funds while the yield on
securities also fell less than the cost of funds. The net interest margin
increased in the September 30, 1996 quarter to 2.66%, compared to 2.56% in the
September 30, 1995 quarter.
Net interest income was $2.425 million in fiscal 1996 14.1% greater
than the $2.126 million reported during fiscal 1995. This improvement in net
interest income was primarily due to volume increases in the securities
portfolio and to higher average yields on the loan portfolio. Although loans
receivable increased 11.78% from June 30, 1995 to June 30, 1996, average loan
volume did not keep pace with average securities volume increases. The average
balance of the securities portfolio was $10.523 million in fiscal 1996, up
$3.017 million, or 40.2% over fiscal 1995. The average balance of the loan
portfolio was $79.885 million in fiscal 1996, up $1.503 million, or 2.0% over
fiscal 1995. Although market interest rates declined in the last half of
calendar 1995 and first half of calendar 1996, the yield on average loans
increased
-15-
<PAGE>
54 basis points from 7.52% in fiscal 1995 to 8.06% in fiscal 1996, while the
yield on securities declined 12 basis points to 7.79% in fiscal 1996 from 7.91%
in fiscal 1995. Also contributing to the improvement in net interest income in
fiscal 1996 was a decline in the average amount of FHLB advances and borrowings
of $1.218 million, or 4.5%, to $25.773 million in fiscal 1996, from $26.991
million in fiscal 1995, and a decline in the average rates paid on such
borrowings of 22 basis points from 6.25% in fiscal 1995 to 6.03% in fiscal 1996.
A $9.522 million, or 24.5% increase in the average balances of certificates of
deposits from $38.938 million in fiscal 1995 to $48.460 million in fiscal 1996,
more than offset a slight decline in other deposit accounts and enabled Guaranty
to reduce FHLB advances and increase balances of investment securities. The
average rate paid on interest bearing deposits increased 58 basis points to
5.06% in fiscal 1996 from 4.48% in fiscal 1995 but, with the decline in volume
and rates on FHLB advances, the average rates paid on all interest bearing
liabilities increased only 25 basis points to 5.69% in fiscal 1996 from 5.44% in
fiscal 1995. The increase in net interest margin was achieved both from volume
gains and widening spreads. The gains in average deposit volumes supported a
reduction in FHLB borrowings and an increase in investment securities while
yields on interest earning assets increased more than the average rates paid on
interest bearing liabilities. The yields on loans increased in line with the
increase in rates paid on deposits while yields on securities fell significantly
less than the decline in rates paid on FHLB advances. The net interest margin
increased in fiscal 1996 to 2.54%, compared to 2.38% in fiscal 1995.
Net interest income was $2.126 million in fiscal 1995, 32.0% greater
than the $1.611 million in fiscal 1994. The improvement in net interest income
was primarily due to a significant reduction of the amortization discount from
REMIC bonds under rising interest rates in the first half of fiscal 1995 and
slowly declining interest rates in the second half of fiscal 1995 compared with
falling interest rates in fiscal 1994 which precipitated sharply higher
repayments of REMIC bonds and faster amortization of the discount. Such bonds
were issued in 1987 and were sold at an original issue discount of $3.3 million,
which is amortized against income as mortgages that collateralize the bonds
prepay. In fiscal year 1994 under rapidly falling interest rates, Guaranty had
significant prepayments of mortgages which increased the amortization of the
discount. The average balance of interest earning assets declined 6.7% in fiscal
1995 to $89.419 million as management, due to lack of capital, was forced to
continue to downsize or restrain growth. Securities, on average, were reduced
64.1% to $7.506 million in fiscal 1995 from $20.936 million in fiscal 1994,
while loan volume on average increased 6.7% to $78.382 million in fiscal 1995.
The average yield on interest earning assets increased 62 basis points to 7.59%
in fiscal 1995, up from 6.97% in fiscal 1994. Although interest rates were
generally higher in fiscal 1995 than fiscal 1994 the rate paid on interest
bearing liabilities declined 17 basis points from 5.61% in fiscal 1994 to 5.44%
in fiscal 1995 which was entirely due to the reduction in the REMIC bonds
discount. Rates paid on the REMIC bonds payable declined 997 basis points from
22.48% in fiscal 1994 to 12.51% in fiscal 1995 and the average balance of such
bonds declined $2.557 million, or 37.4%, from $6.832 million in fiscal 1994 to
$4.275 million in fiscal 1995. The reduction in the REMIC bonds on average of
$2.557 million and an increase in interest bearing deposits on average of $4.323
million permitted management to reduce more costly FHLB advances on average
$6.566 million in fiscal 1995 from fiscal 1994. The net interest margin,
benefited from the 17 basis point decline in the cost of interest bearing
liabilities, due to reduction of amortization and interest on the REMIC bonds,
and the 62 basis point increase on average yields on interest earning assets
under rising interest rates. The net interest margin increased to 2.38% in
fiscal 1995 compared to 1.68% in fiscal 1994.
-16-
<PAGE>
Net interest income in fiscal 1994 compared to fiscal 1993 decreased
$1.012 million, or 38.9%, to $1.611 million. This decrease in net interest
income was due primarily to an increase in pre-payments of mortgages underlying
REMIC bonds as refinancings increased under falling interest rates and
Guaranty's amortization of the REMIC bond discount was accelerated. Also
contributing to the decline in net interest income was an increase in the amount
of and average rates paid on FHLB advances and borrowings. With interest rates
falling, the yield on average earning assets declined 116 basis points in fiscal
1994 to 6.97%, including a decline of 134 basis points on securities and 118
basis points on loans. The volume of interest earning assets was relatively
unchanged from fiscal 1993. With the smaller increase in REMIC mortgage
pre-payments and the acceleration of the bond discount, management relied on
FHLB advances to maintain earning asset levels. The average rates paid on FHLB
advances increased 9 basis points to 4.77% in fiscal 1994 from fiscal 1993 and
the amortization and rates paid on REMIC bonds increased 845 basis points to
22.48% although the average balance of REMIC bonds declined $3.846 million, or
36.0%, to $6.832 in fiscal 1994 from fiscal 1993. With the significantly greater
decline in yields on earning assets compared with rates paid on interest bearing
liabilities, declining 116 basis points compared with 6 basis points, the spread
narrowed and the net interest margin declined from 2.82% in 1993 to 1.68% in
1994.

Interest Sensitivity
An important element of both earnings performance and liquidity is the
management of the interest sensitivity gap. The interest sensitivity gap is the
difference between interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities
maturing or repricing within a specific time interval. The gap can be managed by
repricing assets or liabilities, by selling investments held for sale, by
replacing an asset or liability prior to maturity, or by adjusting the interest
rate during the life of an asset or liability. Matching the amounts of assets
and liabilities repricing in the same time interval helps to hedge the risk and
minimize the impact on net income of changes in market interest rates.
Guaranty evaluates interest rate risk and then formulates guidelines
regarding asset generation and pricing, funding sources and pricing, and
off-balance sheet commitments in order to decrease sensitivity risk. These
guidelines are based upon management's outlook regarding future interest rate
movements, the state of the regional and national economy, and other financial
and business risk factors.
At September 30, 1996, Guaranty had $19.0 million more in liabilities
than assets that reprice within one year or less and therefore was in an
liability-sensitive position. A negative gap adversely impacts earnings in a
period of rising interest rates. This negative position is the result of fixed
rate borrowings and certificates of deposit reaching maturity and short term
borrowings used to fund mortgage-backed securities. As these fixed rate
-19-
<PAGE>
borrowings mature, Guaranty intends that they will be extended to match more
closely the maturities of its assets. Guaranty also intends to increase its
prime-based lending products, which will also improve this negative position.
Guaranty has an Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO"). The ALCO meets to
discuss deposit pricing, changes in borrowed money, investment and trading
activity, loan sale activities, liquidity levels and the overall interest
sensitivity. The actions of this committee are reported to the Board of
Directors monthly. The daily monitoring of interest rate risk, investment and
trading activity, along with any other significant transactions are managed by
the CEO with input from other ALCO members.
The following table presents the amounts of Guaranty's interest
sensitive assets and liabilities that mature or reprice in the periods
indicated.

Investments
In the year ended June 30, 1995, Guaranty adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, which requires investments to be
classified as held to maturity, trading, or available for sale. Upon adoption of
SFAS 115, existing investments were classified based on Guaranty's intent.
Guaranty held no investments classified as "trading" at September 30, 1996 or at
June 30, 1996 or 1995. Since implementation of SFAS 115, no transfers between
portfolios have occurred. Investment securities classified as available for sale
are reported on a fair value basis, with any unrealized gains or losses excluded
from earnings, but reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net
of any related deferred income taxes. Management believes, in general, that the
available for sale classification is the most appropriate for Guaranty as it
provides the greatest flexibility in meeting interest rate risk management and
liquidity needs. At September 30, 1996, Guaranty had $3.5 million of
mortgage-backed securities classified as held to maturity, which are the
securities collateralizing the REMIC bonds issued in 1987.
Mortgage-backed securities available for sale increased in fiscal 1996
due to the rapid growth in deposits. Since loan growth was not increasing at the
rate of deposit growth, the excess funds were invested in mortgage-backed
securities.
The following table shows the amortized cost and fair market value of
investment securities and mortgage-backed securities at the dates indicated.

</TABLE>
Contractual principal repayments of loans do not necessarily reflect the
actual term of Guaranty's loan portfolio. The average life of mortgage loans is
substantially less than their contractual terms because of loan prepayments and
enforcement of due-on-sale clauses, which gives Guaranty the right to declare a
loan immediately due and payable in the event, among other things, the borrower
sells the real property subject to the mortgage and the loan is not repaid. In
addition, certain borrowers increase their equity in the security property by
making payments in excess of those required under the terms of the mortgage.
Asset Quality
Asset quality is an important factor in the successful operation of a
financial institution. The loss of interest income and principal that may result
from nonperforming assets has an adverse effect on earnings, and the resolution
of those assets requires the use of capital and management resources. Guaranty
maintains loan monitoring policies and systems that require detailed monthly
analysis of delinquencies, nonperforming loans, nonaccrual loans and repossessed
assets. Reports of such loan and asset categories are reviewed by management and
the Board of Directors.
Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans, debt,
equity securities and other assets considered to be of lesser quality as
"substandard," "doubtful" or "loss" assets. The regulations require insured
institutions to classify their own assets and to establish prudent general
allowances for losses for assets classified "substandard" or "doubtful." For the
portion of assets classified as "loss," an institution is required to either
establish specific allowances of 100% of the amount classified or charge such
amounts off its books. Assets which
-26-
<PAGE>
do not currently expose the insured institution to sufficient risk to warrant
classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess potential
weaknesses are required to be designated "special mention" by management. In
addition, the OTS may require the establishment of a general allowance for
losses based on assets classified as "substandard" and "doubtful" or based on
the general quality of the asset portfolio of an institution. In connection with
the filing of its periodic reports with the OTS and in accordance with its
classification of assets policy, Guaranty regularly reviews the loans in its
portfolio to determine whether any loans require classification in accordance
with applicable regulations. On the basis of management's review of its assets,
at September, 1996, Guaranty had classified $2.49 million of its assets as
substandard, $186,000 as loss and none as doubtful. Not all of Guaranty's assets
that have been classified are included in the table of non-performing assets set
forth below. Several of these loans are classified because of previous credit
problems but are performing.
Unless well secured and in the process of collection, Guaranty places
loans on a nonaccrual status after being delinquent greater than 90 days, or
earlier in situations in which the loans have developed inherent problems that
indicate payment of principal and interest may not be made in full. Whenever the
accrual of interest is stopped, previously accrued but uncollected interest
income is reversed. Thereafter, interest is recognized only as cash is received.
The loan is reinstated to an accrual basis after it has been brought current as
to principal and interest under the contractual terms of the loan.
The following table reflects the composition of nonperforming assets at
the dates indicated.

At September 30, 1996, Guaranty's nonaccrual loans were comprised of
one home-equity loan, 17 single-family mortgage loans and two commercial real
estate loans. Based on current market values of the properties securing these
loans, management anticipates no significant losses.
The net amount of interest income foregone during the three months
ended September 30, 1996 and fiscal years 1996, 1995 and 1994 on loans
classified as non-performing, was $20,000, $17,000, $12,000, and $15,000,
respectively. Interest income included in net income for non-performing assets
during the three months ended September 30, 1996 and fiscal year 1996 was $900
and $41,000, respectively.
As of September 30, 1996, there were $885,000 in loans with respect to
which known information about the possible credit problems of the borrowers or
the cash flows of the security properties have caused Management to have doubts
as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms
and which may result in the future inclusion of such items in the non-performing
asset categories.

Delinquent and Problem Loans
When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a loan, Guaranty
attempts to cure the delinquency by contacting the borrower. A notice is mailed
to the borrower after a payment is 17 days past due and again when the loan is
30 days past due. For most loans, if the delinquency is not cured within 60
days, Guaranty issues a notice of intent to foreclose on the property and if the
delinquency is not cured within 90 days, Guaranty may institute foreclosure
action. If foreclosed on, real property is sold at a public sale and may be
purchased by Guaranty. In most cases, deficiencies are cured promptly.
The following table sets forth information concerning delinquent
mortgage and other loans at September 30, 1996. The amounts presented represent
the total remaining principal balances of the related loans, rather that the
actual payment amounts which are overdue.

Allowance for Losses on Loans and Real Estate
Guaranty provides valuation allowances for anticipated losses on loans
and real estate when its management determines that a significant decline in the
value of the collateral has occurred, if the value of the collateral is less
than the amount of the unpaid principal of the related loan plus estimated costs
of acquisition and sale. In addition, Guaranty also provides reserves based on
the dollar amount and type of collateral securing its loans, in order to protect
against unanticipated losses. A loss experience percentage is established for
each loan type and is reviewed annually. Each quarter, the loss percentage is
applied to the portfolio, by product type, to determine the minimum amount of
reserves required. Although management believes that it uses the best
information available to make such determinations, future adjustments to
reserves may be necessary, and net income could be significantly affected, if
circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the
initial determinations.

Provision for Loan Losses
For the three months ended September 30, 1996, the provision for loan
losses was $46,000, compared to a credit of $4,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. The provision for loan losses increased to $56,700 for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 from a credit of $9,000 for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1995. Guaranty monitors its loan loss allowance monthly and makes
provisions as necessary. Management believes that the level of Guaranty's loan
loss reserve is adequate. At September 30, 1996 the total allowance for loan
losses amounted to $834,000 of which $677,000 was not specifically allocated to
identified problem loans.
The provision decreased to a credit of $9,000 for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1995 from $74,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994. As of June
30, 1995 the total allowance for loan losses amounted to $747,000 of which
$650,000 was not specifically allocated to identified problem loans.

A breakdown of the general allowance for loan losses in dollars and
loans in each category to total loans in percentages is provided in the
following tables. Because all of these factors are subject to change, the

Non-Interest Income
Guaranty's non-interest income consists primarily of loan fees
and servicing income, net gains on the sale of loans and securities, loan fees
and service charges on deposit accounts. In the three months ended September 30,
1996, non-interest income totaled $274,000. Loan fees and servicing income were
$149,000, or 54.4% of non-interest income. Gains on sales of loans and
securities were $68,000, and service charges on checking accounts totaled
$25,000.
-30-
<PAGE>
In the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, loan fees and
servicing income accounted for 55.10%, 74.79% and 317.31%, respectively, of
non-interest income. Gains on sales of loans and securities were 21.94% and .02%
of non-interest income in fiscal 1996 and fiscal 1995, respectively. In the year
ended June 30, 1994, Guaranty had a loss of $491,000 on sales of loans and
investments. Service charges on checking accounts were $90,000 in fiscal 1996
and $78,000 in each of the years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.
Non-interest income in fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 was $1.11
million, an increase of $235,000 or 27% over non-interest income of $872,000 in
fiscal year 1995. Non-interest income for fiscal year ended June 30, 1995,
increased by $745,000 or 591% over fiscal year 1994.
Mortgage loan servicing is a significant business for Guaranty, and a
by-product of its residential lending business. Guaranty derives fees from
originated and purchased mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs"). Loan servicing
includes collecting and remitting loan payments, accounting for principal and
interest, holding escrow funds for payment of taxes and insurance, making
required inspections of the mortgaged premises, contacting delinquent
mortgagors, supervising foreclosures in the event of unremitted defaults and
generally administering the loans for the investors to whom they have been sold.
MSRs are intangible assets that represent the rights to service mortgage loans
and in turn to receive the service fee income associated with the mortgage
loans. MSRs are amortized against income over the estimated average lives of the
loans serviced. If loans are prepaid at rates faster than those originally
assumed, adjustments may be required to the unamortized balance, which could
result in charges to current earnings. Conversely, slower prepayment rates could
result in increases in mortgage loan servicing income in future periods. The
weighted average note rate of mortgage loans serviced for others was 7.93% at
June 30, 1996 and 8.03% at September 30, 1996. See "Financial Statements -
Summary of Accounting Policies." At September 30, 1996, loans serviced for
others totaled $166.0 million. Guaranty serviced loans for others aggregating
approximately $168.4 million at June 30, 1996, of which 70% were originated
locally, and $169.6 million at June 30, 1995, of which 67% were originated
locally. Revenues recognized from these activities amounted to $516,000 and
$550,000 in the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, and $128,000
in the three months ended September 30, 1996.
Guaranty serviced loans for others aggregating approximately $158.8
million at June 30, 1994, of which 62% was originated locally. Revenues
recognized from these activities amounted to $400,132 in the year ended June 30,
1994.
There is an active secondary market for most types of residential
mortgage loans originated by Guaranty. By originating loans that are eligible
for subsequent sale in the secondary mortgage market, Guaranty is able to obtain
funds which may be used for lending and investment purposes. Guaranty originates
loans for sale and for investment.
Gains from the sales of mortgage loans and securities available for
sale were $68,000 in the three months ended September 30, 1996 and were $306,000
in fiscal year 1996, compared to net losses of $24,000 in fiscal 1995 and
$491,000 in fiscal 1994. Of the 1996 gain, $161,000 was due to the early
adoption of SFAS 122, Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights, an Amendment to
Securities FASB Statement No. 65. The gains in fiscal year 1996 also reflect a
decline in market interest rates in the early part of the fiscal year.
Guaranty sells fixed rate residential production on an individual loan
basis and securitizes loans through the creation of Federal National Mortgage
Association ("FNMA"), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") and
Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") mortgage-backed securities.
In the three months ended September 30, 1996, Guaranty sold $4.4
million of loans and securitized loans. Guaranty sold $12.23 million of fixed
rate mortgage loans and securitized loans during fiscal year 1996, compared to
$16.76 million in fiscal year 1995 and $30.32 million in fiscal year 1994. The
sale of fixed rate product creates liquidity and an income stream from servicing
fees on loans sold.
-31-
<PAGE>
Guaranty also trades treasury securities in an effort to take advantage
of short term movements in market interest rates. It is Guaranty's policy not to
hold trading securities with a cost in excess of $5 million at one time. Trading
securities are marked to market monthly. Sale of trading account securities
totaled $107.28 million, $43.14 million and $73.38 million in the years ended
June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and $24.0 million in the three
months ended September 30, 1996. Guaranty experienced a gain of $24,000 on such
sales in fiscal 1995, net losses of $64,000 and $168,000 in the fiscal years
ended June 30, 1996 and 1994, and a net loss of $28,000 in the three months
ended September 30, 1996.
Guaranty realizes interest and loan fee income from its lending
activities. Guaranty receives loan fees on both construction and one- to
four-family residential loans. Guaranty receives loan fees and charges related
to existing loans, which include late charges. Interest on loans and loan fees
and servicing income together comprised 81% of Guaranty's total revenues for the
year ended June 30, 1996. Income from loan fees and other fees is a volatile
source of income, varying with the volume and type of loans and commitments made
and with competitive and economic conditions.
Generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") allow the inclusion
of loan fees in current income to an amount limited to loan underwriting and
closing costs. The remaining deferred fees are amortized into income over the
estimated remaining lives of the loans to which they relate, using a method
which approximates level yield. Guaranty had deferred fees net of direct
underwriting costs of $314,000 and $328,000 at June 30, 1996 and September 30,
1996, respectively.
Non-Interest Expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 1996, non-interest expenses
were $996,000, compared to $596,000 in the same period last year. The $400,000
increase was due primarily to the special assessment to recapitalize the SAIF,
which was $347,000. Non-interest expenses were $2.49 million for the year ended
June 30, 1996, compared to $2.53 million for fiscal year 1995, a 2% decrease,
that resulted primarily from a reduction in personnel expense after loan
production offices in Richmond, Virginia, and Waynesboro, Virginia, were closed.
Non-interest expenses were $2.53 million for the year ended June 30,
1995, compared to $2.2 million for fiscal year 1994, an increase of 15.0%. This
increase is primarily a result of the full impact of all costs incurred this
year with respect to Guaranty's Richmond mortgage origination office, which
management closed because of unprofitability.
Income Taxes
Reported income tax expense for the year ended June 30, 1996, was
$344,000 compared to $100,000 for 1995. The increase resulted from Guaranty's
increased earnings in 1996, compared to 1995.
Reported income tax expense for the year ended June 30, 1995, was
$100,000 compared to a benefit of $235,000 for 1994. The increase was attributed
to Guaranty's increased earnings in 1995, compared to a loss in 1994.
In addition, in the year ended 1994, Guaranty took a charge of $196,000
for the cumulative effect of change in accounting for income taxes. As required
by the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"), "Accounting For Income Taxes," Guaranty was
required to change from the deferred method to the asset and liability method of
accounting for income taxes.

Sources of Funds
Deposits
Deposits have traditionally been the principal source of Guaranty's
funds for use in lending and for other general business purposes. In addition to
deposits, Guaranty derives funds from loan repayments, cash flows generated from
operations, which includes interest credited to deposit accounts, repurchase
agreements entered into with commercial banks and FHLB of Atlanta advances.
Contractual loan payments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit
inflows and outflows and the related cost of such funds have varied widely.
Borrowings may be used to compensate for reductions in deposits or
deposit-inflows at less than projected levels and have been used on a
longer-term basis to support expanded lending activities.
Guaranty attracts both short-term and long-term deposits from the
general public by offering a wide assortment of accounts and rates. Guaranty
offers statement savings accounts, various checking accounts, various money
market accounts, fixed-rate certificates with varying maturities, individual
retirement accounts and is expanding to provide products and services for small
businesses. Guaranty does not solicit brokered deposits.
Guaranty's principal use of deposits is to originate loans and fund
investment securities. Guaranty experienced significant deposit growth in fiscal
year 1996. Net deposits increased 42% to $74.7 million from $52.5 million at
June 30, 1995 and decreased 2% in fiscal year 1995 from $53.5 in fiscal year
1994. The deposit growth is a reflection of aggressive pricing and increased
marketing. Deposits increased 5.35% to $78.7 million at September 30, 1996 from
$74.7 million at June 30, 1996, and 40.27% from $56.1 million at September 30,
1995.
The Bank began to aggressively solicit deposit accounts in July 1995
with the one year "Opportunity C.D." This account offers a one time penalty free
withdrawal after thirty days and the ability on a one time basis to increase the
rate if there has been an increase in the rate then offered for this product.
The rate on the account was initially set slightly above local competition but
below the Bank's other alternate sources of borrowings. The Bank's local
competition, larger state and regional banks, did not alter their product menus,
thus creating a local market advantage. The deposit growth of $22 million in the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 and over $5 million since June 30, 1996 has
enabled the Bank to pay off higher rate, more volatile borrowings, while
increasing interest earning assets. This deposit growth, being local, is
considered by Guaranty to be relatively stable. Guaranty expects to be able to
sustain reasonable deposit growth because of the continuation of its marketing
efforts and the recent and planned expansion of its branch network.
The following table sets forth the dollar amount of deposits in the
various types of deposit programs offered by Guaranty at the dates indicated.

The variety of deposit accounts offered by Guaranty has allowed it to
be competitive in obtaining funds and has allowed it to respond with flexibility
to, although not eliminate, the threat of disintermediation (the flow of funds
away from depository institutions such as thrift institutions into direct
investment vehicles such as government and corporate securities). The ability of
Guaranty to attract and maintain deposits, and its cost of funds, has been, and
will continue to be, significantly affected by money market conditions.

Borrowings
As a member of the FHLB of Atlanta, Guaranty is required to own capital
stock in the FHLB of Atlanta and is authorized to apply for advances from the
FHLB of Atlanta. Each FHLB credit program has its own interest rate, which may
be fixed or variable, and range of maturities. The FHLB of Atlanta may prescribe
the acceptable uses to which these advances may be put, as well as on the size
of the advances and repayment provisions. The advances are collateralized by
Guaranty's investment in Federal Home Loan Bank stock and certain mortgage
-34-
<PAGE>
loans. See Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for
information regarding the maturities and rate structure of Guaranty's FHLB
advances.
Guaranty's borrowings also include securities sold under agreements to
repurchase, with mortgage-backed securities or Treasury securities pledged as
collateral. The proceeds are used by Guaranty for general corporate purposes. At
September 30, 1996, Guaranty had $2.9 million outstanding in securities sold
under agreement to repurchase.
Guaranty uses borrowings to supplement deposits when they are available
at a lower overall cost to Guaranty or they can be invested at a positive rate
of return.
The following table sets forth the maximum month-end balances, average
balances and weighted average rates, of FHLB advances and securities sold under

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial
obligations either through the sale of existing assets or the acquisition of
additional funds through asset and liability management. By regulatory
definition, liquid assets include cash, interest bearing deposits with banks,
federal funds sold, and government agency and high rated corporate securities
with maturities of five years or less. Guaranty is required to maintain liquid
assets on an average monthly basis equal to at least 5% of the sum of its total
deposits and all short term borrowings. Historically, Guaranty has maintained
its liquid assets above the minimum requirements imposed by federal regulations
and at a level believed adequate to meet requirements of normal daily
activities, repayment of maturing debt and potential deposit outflows. Cash flow
projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity
is provided. At September 30, 1996, Guaranty's liquidity ratio (liquid assets as
a percentage of net withdrawable savings and current borrowings) was 5.48%. As a
result of Guaranty's management of liquid assets and the ability to generate
liquidity through increasing deposits, Management believes that Guaranty
maintains overall liquidity that is sufficient to satisfy its depositors'
requirements and meet its customers' credit needs.
Guaranty's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, and
amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and
mortgaged-backed securities. While scheduled payments from the amortization of
loans and mortgaged-backed securities are relatively predictable sources of
funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general
interest rates, economic conditions and competition. Excess funds are invested
in overnight deposits to fund cash requirements experienced in the normal course
of business. Guaranty has been able to generate sufficient cash through its
deposits as well as borrowings.
The following information should be read in conjunction with the
statements of cash flows, which appear on pages F-7 and F-8 of Guaranty's
financial statements.
Cash and cash equivalents increased $1.05 million to $6.5 million for
the quarter ended September 30, 1996, as the net cash provided by financing
activities exceeded the net cash absorbed by operating and investing activities.
The $490,000 of net cash absorbed by operating activities was primarily the
result of the SAIF
-36-
<PAGE>
assessment. Within investing activities cash outflows consisted mainly of the
net purchase of securities available for sale of $1.9 million and a net increase
in loans of $2.1 million. The $5.6 million of net cash provided by financing
activities was primarily the result of an increase in deposits of $4.0 million
and a net increase in borrowings of $1.8 million.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $321,000 to $5,431,000 for the
year ended June 30, 1996, as the net cash absorbed by investing activities
exceeded the net cash provided by operating and financing activities. The
$479,000 of net cash provided by operating activities primarily resulted from
$643,000 in net income. The $19.8 million of net cash provided by financing
activities was primarily the result of a net increase in deposits of $22.2
million. Within investing activities cash outflows consisted of the net purchase
of securities available for sale of $9.89 million ($28.40 million of gross
purchases less $18.51 million of payments and maturities), a net increase in
loans of $8.5 million, and an increase in premises and equipment of $3.2
million.
For the year ended June 30, 1995, cash and cash equivalents increased
$4.5 million to $5.8 million, as the net cash provided by investing and
financing activities exceeded the cash used in operating activities. The $3.7
million of net funds provided by investing activities resulted mainly from a
$2.5 million decrease in loans and $1.3 million in principal payments on held to
maturity securities. The $1.2 million of net cash provided by financing
activities resulted primarily from proceeds from the issuance of common stock of
$2.1 million.
Guaranty uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its on going
commitments, to pay deposit withdrawals and fund loan commitments. At June 30,
1996, the total approved loan commitments outstanding amounted to $3.9 million.
At the same date, commitments under unused lines of credit amounted to $5.4
million. Certificates of deposits scheduled to mature in one year or less at
June 30, 1996 totaled $51.2 million. Management believes that a significant
portion of maturing deposits will remain with Guaranty.
Capital represents funds, earned or obtained, over which financial
institutions can exercise greater control in comparison with deposits and
borrowed funds. The adequacy of Guaranty's capital is reviewed by management on
an ongoing basis with reference to size, composition, and quality of Guaranty's
resources and consistent with regulatory requirements and industry standards.
Management seeks to maintain a capital structure that will support anticipated
asset growth and absorb any potential losses.

<PAGE>
The Bank is subject to OTS regulations requiring savings institutions
to meet the following minimum levels of regulatory capital (1) tangible capital
of at least 1.5% of total adjusted assets, (2) core capital of 3% of total
adjusted assets and (3) risk-based capital of 8% of total risk-weighted assets.
At September 30, 1996, the Bank exceeded all such regulatory capital
requirements as shown in the following table.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices and Seasonality
The financial statements in this document 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 changes in the relative purchasing power of money
over time due to inflation.
Unlike industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and
liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result,
interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution's
performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do
not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the price
of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation.
Accounting Rules
In March 1995, the FASB issued its Statements of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121 (SFAS 121), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of." SFAS 121 requires that
long-lived assets and certain intangibles to be held and used by an entity be
reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In addition, SFAS 121 requires
long-lived assets and certain intangibles to be disposed of to be reported at
the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. SFAS 121 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995.

<PAGE>
Management does not expect the application of this pronouncement to have a
material effect on the financial statements of the Bank.
In May 1995, the FASB issued its Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 122 (SFAS 122), "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights an
Amendment of FASB Statement No. 65." SFAS 122 requires entities that acquire
mortgage servicing rights through either the purchase or origination of mortgage
loans and sells or securitizes those loans with the servicing rights retained
should allocate the total cost of the mortgage loans to the mortgage servicing
rights and the loans (without the mortgage servicing rights) based on their
relative fair values. In addition, SFAS 122 requires entities to assess their
capitalized mortgage servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of
those rights. SFAS 122 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1995. The Bank elected early adoption and recorded a gain of $161,000 in
fiscal year 1996 on the sale of $12.2 million mortgage loans.
In October 1995, SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," was issued. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1995. The statement encourages, but does not require,
companies to expense the fair value of employee stock options, based on the fair
value on the date of the grant. Companies that elect to continue to follow
existing accounting rules (the intrinsic value method which often results in no
compensation expense) must provide pro forma disclosures of net income and
earnings per share which would have been had the new fair value method been
used. In addition, SFAS 123 requires all companies to make significantly more
disclosures regarding employee stock options than is currently required. The
Corporation plans to adopt the disclosure requirements only of SFAS 123
effective July 1, 1997.
In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued its
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125 (SFAS 125), "Accounting for
Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities."
This statement provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. After a
transfer of financial assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing
assets it controls and the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial
assets when control has been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when
extinguished. In addition, a transfer of financial assets in which the
transferor surrenders control over those assets is accounted for as a sale to
the extent that consideration other than beneficial interests in the transferred
assets is received in exchange. SFAS 125 is effective for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after
December 31, 1996, and is to be applied prospectively. Management does not
expect the application of this pronouncement to have a material effect on the
financial statements of the Corporation.
Subsidiary Activities
The Bank has two wholly owned subsidiaries, GMSC, Inc. ("GMSC") and
Guaranty Investments Corporation ("GICO"). GMSC is a financing subsidiary
through which Guaranty formed a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit
("REMIC"). See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations." Guaranty sells insurance annuities through GICO. GICO
had a net income of $1,004 for the year ended June 30, 1996.
In 1987, Guaranty formed GMSC and entered into a REMIC in order to
create liquidity. Guaranty utilized the REMIC to pool $19.9 million of fixed
rate mortgages into mortgage backed securities, which were used as collateral
for bonds sold to private investors. The bonds bore a coupon of 8% and were sold
at a discount and costs of issuance of approximately $3.3 million. The bond
discount and issuance costs are amortized against income as mortgage underlying
the bonds repay. In the fiscal years ended June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, with
rapidly falling interest rates, Guaranty experienced significant repayment of
mortgages, resulting in an amortization expense of $160,000, $124,000, and
$968,000, respectively. In the three months ended September 30, 1996, such
amortization expense was $31,000. The amortization of the REMIC expenses is
treated as interest expense.

BUSINESS
General
Guaranty is a Virginia corporation which was organized in 1995 for the
purpose of becoming a unitary savings and loan holding company. The Bank is a
federally chartered savings association which began business in February 1981
and is headquartered in Charlottesville, Virginia. The Bank is a member of the
Federal Home Loan Bank System ("FHLBS") and its deposits are insured by the
Savings Associations Insurance Fund ("SAIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC"). The Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") serves as the
primary regulator for thrifts such as the Bank.
Effective December 29, 1995, Guaranty acquired all of the issued and
outstanding standing shares of Common Stock of the Bank. The principal asset of
Guaranty is the outstanding stock of the Bank, its wholly owned subsidiary.
Guaranty presently has no separate operations and its business consists only of
the business of the Bank. All references to Guaranty, unless otherwise
indicated, at or before December 29, 1995, refer to the Bank and its
subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. Guaranty's Common Stock is quoted on the
National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations ("NASDAQ")
System under the symbol "GSLC".
Guaranty's principal business activities are attracting checking and
savings deposits from the general public through its retail banking offices and
originating, servicing, investing in and selling loans secured by first mortgage
liens on single-family dwellings, including condominium units. Of Guaranty's
$90.1 million of gross loans outstanding at September 30, 1996, 78.0%
represented residential first mortgages. Guaranty also lends funds to retail
banking customers by means of home equity, installment loans, and, to a lesser
extent, originates loans secured by commercial property and multi-family
dwellings. Guaranty has recently begun to offer consumer loans and
government-insured and conventional small business loans. Guaranty invests in
certain United States government and agency obligations and other investments
permitted by applicable laws and regulations.
In October 1995, construction began on a combined headquarters and
retail branch located on the east side of Charlottesville in the Pantops area of
Albemarle County. At June 30, 1996, approximately $1.4 million of an estimated
$2.4 million project had been disbursed. The new facility contains 20,000 square
feet of which Guaranty occupies 15,500 sq. ft., with the remainder to be leased.
The new facility opened in December 1996. In addition, in fiscal 1996, Guaranty
purchased its Seminole Trail office, which previously had been leased. This
office contains $36.8 million in deposits and has been the headquarters of
Guaranty for the past twelve years. The building contains 11,000 square feet, in
which Guaranty will maintain a 2,500 square foot retail branch with the
remainder to be leased after the move to the new facility. Renovations of
approximately $150,000 began in October 1996 to modernize the site and make it
more attractive and accessible for tenants and customers. In addition to the new
headquarters and Seminole Trail purchase, Guaranty has purchased land at the
intersection of Neff Avenue and Reservoir Street in Harrisonburg, Virginia, for
a new retail branch. A branch application was filed with the OTS and was
approved in June 1996. It is anticipated that the branch will open in the spring
of 1997.
Guaranty's main office is located at 1658 State Farm Boulevard,
Charlottesville, Virginia 22911 and the telephone number is (804)970-1100.
Market Area
Guaranty is the only independent community banking or savings
organization headquartered in, or even with an office in, Charlottesville or
Albemarle County, Virginia. This area had a collective population of
approximately 108,000 in 1990 according to census figures, is located in central
Virginia 110 miles southwest of Washington, D.C. and 70 miles west of Richmond,
Virginia, and includes the University of Virginia, the area's
-40-
<PAGE>
largest employer. Guaranty operates four full service retail branches, which
serve Charlottesville and Albemarle County.
Competition
Guaranty faces strong competition both in originating real estate loans
and in attracting deposits. Competition in originating real estate loans comes
primarily from commercial banks, mortgage bankers and to a lesser extent other
thrift institutions who also make loans secured by real estate located in the
Bank's market area. The Bank competes for real estate loans principally on the
basis of the interest rates and loan fees it charges, the types of loans it
originates and the quality of services it provides to borrowers.
Guaranty faces substantial competition in attracting deposits from
commercial banks, money market and mutual funds, credit unions and other
investment vehicles. There are no other thrift institutions in Charlottesville.
The ability of Guaranty to attract and retain deposits depends on its ability to
provide an investment opportunity that satisfies the requirements of investors
as to rate of return, liquidity, risk and other factors. Guaranty competes for
these deposits by offering a variety of deposit accounts at competitive rates,
convenient business hours, and being the only locally based thrift in
Charlottesville. In the year ended June 30, 1996, Guaranty was able to increase
its deposits significantly. Deposits grew 42% over the previous year. This
deposit growth is a reflection of aggressive pricing, increased marketing and
competitive products and services.
Within Charlottesville and Albemarle County there are four statewide
and two regional commercial banks and financial institutions with a larger
deposit base than Guaranty that compete with Guaranty. Accordingly, Guaranty
operates in a highly competitive environment, competing for deposits and loans
with commercial banks, and other financial institutions, including non-savings
and loan competitors, many of which possess substantially greater financial
resources than those available to Guaranty. Certain of these institutions have
significantly higher lending limits than Guaranty. In addition, there can be no
assurance that other financial institutions, with substantially greater
resources than Guaranty, will not establish operations in Guaranty's service
area.
Credit Policies
The principal risk associated with each of the categories of loans in
Guaranty's portfolio is the creditworthiness of its borrowers. Within each
category, such risk is increased or decreased, depending on prevailing economic
conditions. In an effort to manage the risk, Guaranty's policy gives loan amount
approval limits to individual loan officers based on their level of experience.
The risk associated with real estate mortgage loans and consumer loans varies,
based on employment levels, consumer confidence, fluctuations in the value of
real estate and other conditions that affect the ability of borrowers to repay
indebtedness. The risk associated with real estate construction loans varies,
based on the supply and demand for the type of real estate under construction.
Guaranty has written policies and procedures to help manage credit
risk. The loan portfolio is managed under a specifically defined credit process.
This process includes formulation of portfolio management strategy, guidelines
for underwriting standards and risk assessment, procedures for ongoing
identification and management of credit deterioration, and regular portfolio
reviews to establish loss exposure and to ascertain compliance with Guaranty's
policies.
Guaranty uses a Management Loan Committee and Directors Loan Committee
to approve loans. The Management Loan Committee, which consists of the President
and two additional loan underwriters, meets as necessary to review all loan
applications. A Directors Loan Committee, which currently consists of all
directors, approves loans in excess of $350,000 that have been previously
approved by the Management Loan Committee. Guaranty's President is responsible
for reporting to the Directors Loan Committee monthly on the activities of the
Management Loan Committee and on the status of various delinquent and
non-performing loans. The Directors Loan Committee also reviews lending policies
proposed by Management.
-41-
<PAGE>
Guaranty's loan portfolio consists primarily of mortgage loans, the
majority of which are residential first mortgage loans. Of Guaranty's $90.1
million of gross loans outstanding at September 30, 1996, 78.0% represented
residential first mortgages. Guaranty also holds commercial real estate
mortgages, residential construction loans, and second mortgage home equity
loans.
Residential loan originations come primarily from walk-in customers,
real estate brokers and builders. Commercial real estate loan originations are
obtained through broker referrals, direct solicitation of developers and
continued business from customers. All completed loan applications are reviewed
by Guaranty's salaried loan officers. As part of the application process,
information is obtained concerning the income, financial condition, employment
and credit history of the applicant. If commercial real estate is involved,
information is also obtained concerning cash flow after debt service. Loan
quality is analyzed based on the Bank's experience and guidelines with respect
to credit underwriting, as well as the guidelines issued by the Federal Home
Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC"), Federal National Mortgage Association
("FNMA") and other purchasers of loans, depending on the type of loan involved.
The non-conforming one- to four-family adjustable-rate mortgage loans originated
by Guaranty, however, are not readily salable in the secondary market because
they do not meet all of the secondary marketing guidelines. These loans are
evaluated by the loan committee for "overall" merit and will not exceed an 80%
loan to value ratio. Real estate is appraised by independent fee appraisers who
have been pre-approved by the Board of Directors. Loans are submitted to the
underwriting department for review. All conforming loans including HUD/FHA, VA
and applicable VHDA loans are underwritten and acted upon within loan
administration requiring two signatures of approval.
In the normal course of business, Guaranty makes various commitments
and incurs certain contingent liabilities which are disclosed but not reflected
in its annual financial statements, including commitments to extend credit. At
September 30, 1996, commitments to extend credit totaled $11.0 million.
One- to Four-Family Residential Real Estate Lending
Guaranty's primary lending program has been the origination of loans
secured by one- to four-family residences, all of which have been located in its
market area. Guaranty evaluates both the borrower's ability to make principal
and interest payments and the value of the property that will secure the loan.
Federal law permits Guaranty to make loans in amounts of up to 100% of the
appraised value of the underlying real estate. Loans are made with a loan to
value up to 95% for conventional mortgage loans and up to 100% for loans
guaranteed by either the Federal Housing Authority ("FHA") or the Veterans
Administration ("VA"). For conventional loans in excess of 80% loan to value,
private mortgage insurance is secured insuring the mortgage loans to 75% loan to
value. In addition to fixed rate mortgage loans, Guaranty makes adjustable rate
mortgages with the primary loan indexed to the one year treasury. Generally if
the loans are not made to credit standards of FHLMC, additional fees and rate
are charged. If the loan to value exceeds 80%, private mortgage insurance is
generally secured.
In order to reduce its exposure to changes in interest rates, Guaranty
has de-emphasized the origination of 30-year fixed-rate one- to four-family
residential mortgage loans for retention in its own portfolio. For the year
ended June 30, 1996, 30.5% of all one- to four-family residential loans
originated by Guaranty had adjustable interest rates. Although, due to
competitive market pressures, the Bank does originate fixed-rate mortgage loans,
it currently underwrites and documents all such loans to permit their sale in
the secondary mortgage market. At September 30, 1996, $32.8 million, or 36.0%,
of Guaranty's one- to four-family residential mortgage loan portfolio consisted
of fixed-rate mortgage loans.
Guaranty's current one- to four-family residential adjustable-rate
mortgage loans ("ARMs") have interest rates that adjust every year, generally in
accordance with the rates on one-year U.S. Treasury Bills. Guaranty's ARMs
generally limit interest rate increases to 2% each rate adjustment period and
have an established ceiling rate at the time the loans are made of up to 6% over
the original interest rate. Borrowers are qualified at the first year
-42-
<PAGE>
interest rate plus 2%. To compete with other lenders in its market area,
Guaranty makes one-year ARMs at interest rates which, for the first year, are
below the index rate which would otherwise apply to these loans. At September
30, 1996, $36.1 million, or 39.7%, of Guaranty's one- to four-family residential
mortgage loan portfolio consisted of ARMs. There are unquantifiable risks
resulting from potential increased costs to the borrower as a result of
repricing. It is possible, therefore, that during periods of rising interest
rates, the risk of defaults on ARMs may increase due to the upward adjustment of
interest costs to borrowers.
All one- to four-family real estate mortgage loans being originated by
Guaranty contain a "due-on-sale" clause providing that Guaranty may declare the
unpaid principal balance due and payable upon the sale of the mortgage property.
It is Guaranty's policy to enforce these due-on-sale clauses concerning
fixed-rate loans and to permit assumptions of ARMs, for a fee, by qualified
borrowers.
Guaranty requires, in connection with the origination of residential
real estate loans, title opinions and fire and casualty insurance coverage, as
well as flood insurance where appropriate, to protect Guaranty's interest. The
cost of this insurance coverage is paid by the borrower. Guaranty does require
escrows for taxes and insurance.
Construction Lending
Guaranty makes local construction loans, primarily residential and lot
loans. The construction loans are secured by the property for which the loan was
obtained. At September 30, 1996, construction and land loans outstanding were
$8.8 million, or 9.8%, of gross loans. The average life of a construction loan
is approximately nine months and they reprice daily to meet the market, normally
prime plus two percent. Because the interest charged on these loans floats with
the market, they help Guaranty in managing its interest rate risk. Construction
lending entails significant additional risks, compared with residential mortgage
lending. Construction loans often involve larger loan balances concentrated with
single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Construction loans involve
additional risks attributable to the fact that loan funds are advanced upon the
security of the home under construction, which is of uncertain value prior to
the completion of construction. Thus, it is more difficult to evaluate
accurately the total loan funds required to complete a project and related
loan-to-value ratios. To minimize the risks associated with construction
lending, Guaranty limits loan amounts to 80.0% of appraised value, in addition
to its usual credit analysis of its borrowers. Guaranty also obtains a first
lien on the security property as security for its construction loans.
Commercial Real Estate Lending
Guaranty also originates commercial real estate loans. These loans are
secured by various types of commercial real estate, including multi-family
residential buildings, commercial buildings and offices, small shopping centers
and churches. At September 30, 1996, commercial real estate aggregated $7.4
million or 8.2% of Guaranty's gross loans. Guaranty's commercial real estate
loans have been made at interest rates that adjust based on yields for one-year
U.S. Treasury securities, with a 2% annual cap on rate adjustments and a 6% cap
on interest rates over the life of the loan. Beginning in September 1996, the
interests rates on commercial real estate loans, in most cases, have been tied
to the prime lending rate. Typically, Guaranty charges fees ranging from 1% to
2% on these loans. Commercial real estate loans made by Guaranty generally
amortize over 15 to 25 years and may have a call provision of 3 or 5 years.
Guaranty's commercial real estate loans are secured by properties in its market
area.
In its underwriting of commercial real estate, Guaranty may lend, under
federal regulation, up to 100% of the security property's appraised value,
although Guaranty's loan to original appraised value ratio on such properties is
80% or less in most cases. Commercial real estate lending entails significant
additional risk, compared with residential mortgage lending. Commercial real
estate loans typically involve larger loan balances concentrated with single
borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Additionally, the payment experience
on loans
-43-
<PAGE>
secured by income producing properties is typically dependent on the successful
operation of a business or a real estate project and thus may be subject, to a
greater extent, to adverse conditions in the real estate market or in the
economy generally. Guaranty's commercial real estate loan underwriting criteria
require an examination of debt service coverage ratios, the borrower's
creditworthiness and prior credit history and reputation, and Guaranty generally
requires personal guarantees or endorsements of borrowers. Guaranty also
carefully considers the location of the security property.
Consumer Lending
Federal thrift institutions are permitted to make both secured and
unsecured consumer loans reasonably incident to personal or household purposes.
In general, loans made under these investment powers may not exceed 30% of a
federally-chartered thrift institution's total assets.
Guaranty offers various secured and unsecured consumer loans, including
unsecured personal loans and lines of credit, share loans, automobile loans,
deposit account loans, installment and demand loans, letters of credit, and home
equity loans. At September 30, 1996, Guaranty had consumer loans of $5.8 million
or 6.4% of gross loans. During fiscal year 1996, Guaranty increased its level of
consumer loans. Such loans were generally made to customers with which Guaranty
had an pre-existing relationships and were generally in amounts of under
$75,000. Guaranty originates all of its consumer loans in its market area and
intends to continue its consumer lending in this geographic area.
Consumer loans may entail greater risk than do residential mortgage
loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured, such as
lines of credit, or secured by rapidly depreciable assets such as automobiles.
In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not
provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a
result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. The remaining
deficiency often does not warrant further substantial collection efforts against
the borrower. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the
borrower's continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be
adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy.
Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including
federal and state bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can
be recovered on such loans. Such loans may also give rise to claims and defenses
by a consumer loan borrower against an assignee of such loan such as Guaranty,
and a borrower may be able to assert against such assignee claims and defenses
which it has against the seller of the underlying collateral. Guaranty adds
general provisions to its loan loss allowance at the time the loans are
originated. Consumer loan delinquencies often increase over time as the loans
age.
The underwriting standards employed by Guaranty for consumer loans
include a determination of the applicant's payment history on other debts and an
assessment of ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed
loan. The stability of the applicant's monthly income may be determined by
verification of gross monthly income for primary employment, and additionally
from any verifiable secondary income. Although creditworthiness of the applicant
is of primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes an analysis
of the value of the security in relation to the proposed loan amount.
During fiscal year 1996, Guaranty began offering all types of consumer
loans due to its improved capital position. Generally these loans provide higher
yields than one-to-four-family mortgages.
Commercial Loans
In July 1996, Guaranty began making commercial loans to qualified small
businesses in its market area. Commercial business loans generally have a higher
degree of risk than residential mortgage loans, but have commensurately higher
yields. To manage these risks, Guaranty generally secures appropriate collateral
and carefully monitors the financial condition of its business borrowers.
Residential mortgage loans generally are
-44-
<PAGE>
made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from his
employment and other income and are secured by real estate whose value tends to
be easily ascertainable. In contrast, commercial business loans typically are
made on the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from cash flow
from its business and are secured by business assets, such as commercial real
estate, accounts receivable, equipment and inventory. As a result, the
availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be
substantially dependent on the success of the business itself. Further, the
collateral for commercial business loans may depreciate over time and cannot be
appraised with as much precision as residential real estate. Guaranty has a
credit review and monitoring system to regularly review the cash flow of
commercial borrowers.
Properties
Guaranty's current principal office opened in December 1996 and is
located at 1658 State Farm Boulevard, Charlottesville, Virginia.
Guaranty has operated an office on Seminole Trail in Charlottesville
since 1983. Guaranty purchased this office in June 1996 at a cost of $1.15
million.
Guaranty has operated a branch in downtown Charlottesville since 1981,
and has operated its current Main Street location since 1992. The current lease
expires in 1997, subject to Guaranty's right to renew for three additional five
year periods under certain circumstances. Guaranty has operated a branch in
Charlottesville near the University of Virginia since 1985, including the
Arlington Boulevard branch that opened in 1994. The current lease for this
branch expires in 1999, subject to Guaranty's right to renew for three
additional five year periods.
In December 1996, Guaranty opened a new main office, operations center
and fourth retail branch in the Pantops area in Albemarle County, just east of
Charlottesville. Guaranty also has acquired land in Harrisonburg, Virginia, on
which it intends to build a fifth retail branch, which is expected to open in
the spring of 1997.
Employees
At September 30, 1996, Guaranty had the equivalent of 44 full-time
employees, and currently has 46 full-time employees. None of Guaranty's
employees is represented by any collective bargaining unit.
Legal Proceedings
In the course of its operations, Guaranty is a party to various legal
proceedings. Based upon information currently available, management believes
that such legal proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse
effect on Guaranty's business, financial position, or results of operations.
Supervision and Regulation
General
As a federally chartered savings association, the Bank is subject to
regulation, supervision and periodic examination by the OTS and the FDIC. The
regulations of these agencies govern most aspects of Guaranty's business and
operations. The Bank's deposits are insured by the SAIF administered by the FDIC
to the maximum amount by law, which is currently $100,000 per depositor in most
cases.
The primary regulator for federal and state savings institutions is the
OTS, an office in the United States Department of the Treasury. The Director of
the OTS is responsible for the examination and supervision of all savings
institutions.
-45-
<PAGE>
The OTS has authority to issue regulations, conduct examinations and
supervise the operations of savings institutions. The OTS regulatory scheme is
comprehensive and governs, among other things, capital requirements, equity
investments, affordable housing, liquidity, securities issuances, the form of
savings instruments issued by savings institutions, certain aspects of a savings
association's lending activities, including appraisal requirements, maximum loan
amounts, private mortgage insurance coverage, lending authority and
nondiscriminatory lending practices. OTS regulations also restrict transactions
between savings institutions and affiliated parties which are deemed to be a
conflict of interest under the regulations. In addition, the OTS's consent is
required prior to any major corporate reorganization, including a merger or
purchase or disposition of assets.
Deposit accounts of savings associations are insured by the SAIF, which
is administered by the FDIC. The FDIC administers insurance on deposits at all
federally insured institutions. It operates two subfunds: the Bank Insurance
Fund ("BIF") for institutions which paid FDIC insurance in the past; and the
SAIF for those institutions formerly insured by the Federal Savings and Loan
Insurance Corporation ("FSLIC"). The FDIC must segregate assessments, premiums
and administrative expenses between its two subfunds. As administrator of the
SAIF, the FDIC may prohibit any activity found to pose a serious risk of loss to
the insurance funds.
The Federal Home Loan Bank System
All savings associations that make long-term home mortgage loans are
required to be members of the regional Federal Home Loan Banks ("FHLBs"), which
in turn are overseen by the Federal Housing Finance Board. The Bank, as a member
of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, holds shares of capital stock in the FHLB
of Atlanta.
The Bank is authorized to apply for advances from the FHLB of Atlanta,
provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. Advances
are made pursuant to several different credit programs, each of which has its
own interest rate and range of maturities. The FHLB prescribes the acceptable
uses for advances as well as limitations on the size of advances. Long-term
advances may only be made by FHLBs for the purpose of providing funds for
residential housing finance. Additionally, at the time of origination or renewal
of a loan or advance, FHLBs must obtain a security interest in collateral in the
form of the following low-risk assets: whole loans, United States Government or
mortgage-backed securities, FHLB deposits, and certain real estate. At September
30, 1996, the Bank had $22.5 million in advances from the FHLB of Atlanta.
Federal Reserve System
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("FRB") requires
savings associations to maintain reserves against their transaction accounts
(primarily NOW accounts) and non-personal time deposits. FRB regulations
generally exempt from reserve requirements the first $3.8 million in net
transaction accounts. Reserves of 3% (subject to adjustment by the FRB) must be
maintained against net transaction accounts from $3.8 to $46.8 million, and a
reserve of $1,404,000 plus 10% against that portion of total transaction
accounts in excess of $46.8 million must be maintained. The FRB regulations do
not presently require reserves to be maintained on time deposits and savings
accounts.
The balances on deposits to meet the reserve requirements imposed
by the FRB may also be used to satisfy the liquidity requirements that are
imposed by the OTS. See "-Liquidity Requirements."
Capital Requirements
OTS regulations set the minimum risk-based capital requirements at 8%
of risk-weighted assets, the minimum leverage capital requirements at 3% of
adjusted total assets and the minimum tangible capital requirements at 1.5% of
adjusted total assets.
-46-
<PAGE>
Under OTS regulations, total capital consists of two types of capital:
"core capital elements" and "supplementary capital elements." Core capital
consists of common and qualifying preferred shareholders' equity, minority
interests in the equity accounts of fully consolidated subsidiaries,
nonwithdrawable accounts and certain pledged deposits and certain qualifying
supervisory goodwill. Supplementary capital, with certain limitations, may
consist of the allowance for loans and lease losses (limited to 1.25% of a
savings bank's risk-weighted assets), perpetual preferred stock, term
subordinated debt and intermediate term preferred stock, certain hybrid capital
instruments, and mandatory convertible debt securities. The maximum amount of
supplemental capital that may be included in an institution's qualifying capital
is limited to 100% of core capital.
Tangible capital includes core capital less qualifying supervisory
goodwill and other intangible assets, plus purchased mortgage servicing rights.
Risk-weighted assets equal total assets plus consolidated off-balance sheet
items where each asset or item is multiplied by a risk-weight assigned by the
OTS. Off-balance sheet items are converted to on-balance sheet equivalents and
then assigned a risk-weight.
In August 1993, the OTS adopted a final rule incorporating an
interest-rate risk component into the risk-based capital regulation. Under the
rule, an institution with a greater than "normal" level of interest rate risk
will be subject to a deduction of its interest rate risk component from total
capital for purposes of calculating the risk-based capital requirement. As a
result, such an institution will be required to maintain additional capital in
order to comply with the risk-based capital requirement. An institution with a
greater than "normal" interest rate risk is defined as an institution that would
suffer a loss of net portfolio value exceeding 2.0% of the estimated market
value of its assets in the event of a 200 basis point increase or decrease (with
certain minor exceptions) in interest rates. The interest rate risk component
will be calculated on a quarterly basis, as one-half of the difference between
an institution's measured interest rate risk and 2.0%, multiplied by the market
value of its assets. The rule also authorizes the Director of the OTS, or his
designee, to waive or defer an institution's interest rate risk component on a
case-by-case basis. The final rule was originally effective as of January 1,
1994, subject to a two quarter "lag" time between the reporting date of the data
used to calculate an institution's interest rate risk and the effective date of
each quarter's interest rate risk component. However, in October 1994 and March
1995, the Director of the OTS indicated that it would waive the capital
deductions for institutions with a greater that "normal" risk until the OTS
publishes an appeals process, which the OTS expects will occur shortly.
Management of Guaranty does not believe that the OTS' adoption of an interest
rate risk component to the risk-based capital requirement will have an adverse
affect on Guaranty if it becomes effective in its current form.
Higher individual capital requirements may be imposed by the OTS on
savings institutions on a case-by-case basis if the OTS determines it to be
necessary or appropriate, pursuant to the regulations and guidelines issued by
the OTS for this purpose.
For a discussion of the Bank's risk-based and capital ratios, see
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of
Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources."
Failure to Meet Capital Requirements
Federal law establishes five capital categories for insured depository
institutions: (a) Well Capitalized; (b) Adequately Capitalized; (c)
Undercapitalized; (d) Significantly Undercapitalized; and (e) Critically
Undercapitalized. Regulations, which became effective December 19, 1992, define
the relevant capital measures for the four highest capital categories to be the
ratio of total Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets (the total risk-based
ratio), the ratio of Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets (the Tier 1 risk-based
ratio) and the ratio of Tier 1 capital to total average assets (the leverage
ratio).
Well-Capitalized means a financial institution with a total risk-based
ratio of 10% or more, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of 6% or more and a leverage
ratio of 5% or more, so long as the institution is not subject to an order,
written agreement, capital directive or prompt corrective action directive to
meet and maintain a specific capital
-47-
<PAGE>
level for any capital measure. Adequately Capitalized means a total risk-base
ratio of 8% or more, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of 4% or more and a leverage
ratio of 4% or more (3% or more if the institution has received the highest
corporate rating in its most recent report of examination) and does not meet the
definition of a Well-Capitalized institution. Undercapitalized means a financial
institution with a total risk-based ratio of less than 8%, a Tier 1 risk-based
ratio of less than 4% or a leverage ratio of less than 4%. Significantly
Undercapitalized means a financial institution with a total risk-based ratio of
less than 6%, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of less than 3% or a leverage ratio of
less than 3%. Critically Undercapitalized means a financial institution with a
ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is equal to or less than 2%. At
June 30, 1996, Guaranty was Well Capitalized.
Undercapitalized institutions are subject to the following mandatory
supervisory actions: (1) increase monitoring and periodic review of the
institution's efforts to restore its capital; (2)requirements that the
institution submit a capital restoration plan, which must include (a) the steps
the institution will take to become adequately capitalized, (b) the levels of
capital to be attained during each year in which the plan will be in effect, (c)
how the institution will comply with restrictions or requirements imposed on its
activities, and (d) the types and levels of activities in which the institution
will engage; (3) restrictions on growth of the institution's total assets; and
(4) limitations on the institution's ability to make any acquisition, open any
new branch offices or engage in any new line of business.
Significantly Undercapitalized institutions and Undercapitalized
institutions that fail to submit and implement adequate capital restoration
plans and subject to the four mandatory provisions applicable to
Undercapitalized institutions and, in addition, will be required to do or comply
with one or more of the following: (1) sell enough additional capital, including
voting shares, to bring the institution to an Adequately Capitalized level; (2)
restrict transactions with affiliates; (3) restrict interest rates paid on
deposits to the prevailing rates in the region where the institution is located;
(4) restrict asset growth or reduce total assets; (5) terminate, reduce or alter
any activity (including any activity conducted by a subsidiary of the
institution) determined by banking regulatory agency to pose an excessive risk
to the institution; (6) hold a new election for the institution's board of
directors; (7) dismiss directors or senior officers and/or employ new officers,
subject to agency approval; (8) cease accepting deposits from correspondent
depository institutions; (9) divest or liquidate any subsidiary that is in
danger of becoming insolvent and poses a significant risk to the institutions or
that is likely to cause significant dissipation of the institution's assets or
earnings; or (10) any Bank that controls the institution may be required to
divest itself of any affiliate of the institution (other than another depository
institution) if the federal banking agency for the holding Bank determines that
the affiliate is in danger of becoming insolvent and poses a significant risk to
the institution or is likely to cause significant dissipation of the
institution's assets or earnings.
In addition, Significantly Undercapitalized institutions are prohibited
from paying any bonus or raise to a senior executive officer without prior
agency approval. No such approval will be granted to an institution which is
required to but has failed to submit an acceptable restoration plan.
A Critically Undercapitalized institution faces even more severe
restrictions. In addition to those steps that can be taken with respect to
Significantly Undercapitalized institutions, a Critically Undercapitalized
institution must be placed in conservatorship or receivership within 90 days of
becoming Critically Undercapitalized, unless the appropriate federal banking
agency determines, with FDIC concurrence, that other action would be more
appropriate. In addition, Critically Undercapitalized institutions are
prohibited from taking a number of actions, including making payments on
subordinated debt, financing highly leveraged transactions, adopting charter or
by-laws amendments, materially changing accounting methods, or paying excessive
compensation or bonuses, without obtaining prior written regulatory approval.
The OTS must prohibit any asset growth by savings institutions not in
compliance with capital standards, except for specific growth expressly approved
according to certain guidelines. In addition, through enforcement proceedings or
otherwise, the OTS may require any savings institution not in compliance with
the minimum capital requirements to take one or more of the following corrective
actions, which include: (1) increasing the
-48-
<PAGE>
amount of regulatory capital to a specified level; (2) reducing interest payable
on savings account; (3) ceasing or limiting acceptance of new accounts; (4)
ceasing or limiting lending or the making of a particular type of category of
loan; (5) ceasing or limiting the purchase of loans or the making of specified
other investments; (6) limiting operational expenditures; (7) increasing liquid
assets; or (8) taking such other actions as the OTS may deem appropriate for the
safety and soundness of the institution, its depositors and investors.
Failure to meet OTS capital requirements can serve as a basis for
placing an institution in conservatorship or in receivership. Failure to satisfy
an individual capital ratio constitutes a legal basis for a capital directive
against an institution, which may contain those restrictions the OTS deems
appropriate. A savings institution may apply for an exemption from the
provisions of a capital directive, which must be accompanied by a capital plan
acceptable to the OTS. The OTS District Director will treat as an unsafe and
unsound practice any material failure by a savings association to comply with
any plan, regulation or written agreement undertaken to comply with these
requirements.
Restrictions on Capital Distributions
Because Guaranty conducts no business, except through the Bank,
substantially all of Guaranty's ability to pay dividends depends on dividends
received from the Bank. Savings institutions, such as the Bank, have limitations
imposed on all "capital distributions," including cash dividends, payments to
repurchase or otherwise acquire its shares, payments to shareholders or another
institution in a cash-out merger and other distributions charged against
capital. OTS regulations generally create a safe harbor for specified levels of
capital distribution by most savings institutions meeting at least their minimum
capital requirements, so long as such institutions notify the OTS and receive no
objection to the distribution from the OTS. Savings institutions which make
distribution that do not qualify for the safe harbor are required to obtain
prior OTS approval before making any capital distribution.
Liquidity Requirements
The OTS requires savings institution to maintain for each calendar
month an average daily balance of "liquid assets" (cash, certain time deposits,
bankers' acceptances, certain corporate obligations and specified United States
Government, state or federal agency obligations) of not less than 5% of the
average daily balance of the institution's "liquidity base" (net withdrawable
savings deposits plus short-term borrowings) during the preceding calendar
month. In addition, savings associations must maintain an average daily balance
of short-term liquid assets of not less than 1% of the average daily balance of
its liquidity base during the preceding calendar month.
For the month ending September 30, 1996, the Bank's average liquidity
ratio was 5.48%.
Investment and Lending Restrictions
Under the Home Owner's Act of 1933, as amended, the Bank is subject to
limitations on the nature and amount of some types of investments and loans it
may make. Under the regulations of the OTS, savings institutions are permitted
to invest up to 30% of assets in state housing corporations, provided that such
loans are secured by an insured first lien on improved real estate which is
insured under the National Housing Act, as amended. The ability of savings
institutions to invest in the accounts of commercial banks of other savings
institutions, and debt securities hedged with a firm forward commitment, is
limited.
Federal law imposes on savings institutions loans-to-one-borrower
limitations which are also applicable to national banks. Subject to certain
exceptions, savings institutions may lend up to 15% of the institution's
unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus to a single borrower, plus an
additional 10% of unimpaired capital and
-49-
<PAGE>
unimpaired surplus for loans fully secured by readily marketable collateral.
Readily marketable collateral does not include real estate.
A savings institution authorized to make loans in excess of 90% of
value on the security of real estate comprising single-family dwellings or
dwelling units for four or fewer families may do so only if such loans are
insured or guaranteed by various government agencies or if such loans comply
with real estate lending standards as set forth in written policies adopted and
maintained by the institution. The policies must establish appropriate limits
and standards for extensions of credit that are secured by liens on or interest
in real estate, or that are made for the purpose of financing permanent
improvements to real estate. This does not apply to loans to facilitate the sale
of real estate owned as a result of foreclosure, or acquired by deed in lieu of
foreclosure.
Real estate lending policies adopted by a savings and loan must, among
other things, reflect safe and sound banking practices, be appropriate to the
size, nature and scope of the operations of the institution, and be reviewed and
approved by the board of directors at least annually. The policies must
establish loan portfolio diversification standards, prudent underwriting
standards, loan administration procedures and documentation, approval and
reporting requirements to adequately monitor compliance.
Qualified Thrift Lender Test
All savings associations, including the Bank are required to meet a
qualified thrift lender ("QTL") test to avoid certain restrictions on their
operations. This test requires a savings association to have at least 65% of its
portfolio assets (which consists of total assets less intangibles, properties
used to conduct the savings association's business and liquid assets not
exceeding 20% of total assets) in qualified thrift investments on a monthly
average for nine out of every twelve months on a rolling basis.
Any savings association that fails to meet the QTL test must convert to
a national bank charter, unless it requalifies as a QTL and thereafter remains a
QTL. If an association does not requalify and converts to a national bank
charter, it must remain SAIF-insured until the FDIC permits it to transfer to
the Bank Insurance Fund. If an association that fails the test has not yet
requalified and has not converted to a national bank, its new investments and
activities are limited to those permissible for both a savings association and a
national bank, and it is limited to national bank branching rights in its home
state. In addition, the association is immediately ineligible to receive any new
FHLB borrowings and is subject to national bank limits for payment of dividends.
If such association has not requalified or converted to a national bank within
three years after the failure, it must divest of all investments and cease all
activities not permissible for a national bank. In addition, it must repay
promptly any outstanding FHLB borrowings, which may result in prepayment
penalties. If any association that fails the QTL test is controlled by a holding
company, then within one year after the failure, the holding company must
register as a bank holding company, and become subject to all restrictions on
bank holding companies. At September 30, 1996, the Bank met the test and has
always met the test since its effectiveness. See " - Holding Company
Regulation."
Transactions with Affiliates
Generally, transactions between a savings association or its
subsidiaries and its affiliates are required to be on terms as favorable to the
association as transactions with non-affiliates. In addition, certain of these
transactions are restricted to a percentage of the association's capital.
Affiliates of Guaranty include any company which is under common control. In
addition, a savings association may not lend to any affiliate engaged in
activities not permissible for a bank holding company or acquire the securities
of most affiliates. The Bank's subsidiaries are not deemed affiliates, however,
the OTS has the discretion to treat subsidiaries of savings associations as
affiliates on a case by case basis.
Certain transactions with directors, officers or controlling persons
are also subject to conflict of interest regulations enforced by the OTS. These
conflict of interest regulations and other statues also impose restriction on
-50-
<PAGE>
loans to such persons and their related interests. Among other things, such
loans must be made on terms substantially the same as for loans to unaffiliated
individuals.
Deposit Insurance
Federal law requires the FDIC to establish a risk-based assessment
system for calculating a depository institution's semi-annual deposit insurance
premiums. Under regulations adopted by the FDIC, the risk which each insured
depository institution poses to its insurance fund is determined on the basis of
capital and supervisory evaluations. For purposes of the risk-based assessment
system, insured institutions are divided into three main capital groups: Well
Capitalized, Adequately Capitalized and Undercapitalized. Each of the three
capital categories are further subdivided by three supervisory subgroups:
healthy, supervisory concern and substantial supervisory concern. Each
institution is assigned an assessment based on its placement in the resulting
nine cell matrix. Assessments range from $0.23 per $100 of deposits for healthy,
Well Capitalized institutions to $0.31 per $100 of deposits for Undercapitalized
institutions for which there is substantial supervisory concern.
This risk-based system includes factors intended to assess the
probability that the deposit insurance fund will incur a loss with respect to
the institution. In determining the probability of loss, different categories
and concentrations of assets and liabilities (both insured and uninsured,
contingent and noncontingent) and any other factors that the FDIC determines are
relevant to assessing such probability will be taken into consideration.
Guaranty's deposit insurance premium is currently $0.26 per $100 of deposits.
The Administration and Congress have resolved the premium difference
through a one-time special assessment to recapitalize the SAIF. The
recapitalization of SAIF resulted in an assessment against the Bank of
approximately $225,000 on an after tax basis, based upon deposit balances as of
March 31, 1995 and was charged to earnings in the quarter ended September 30,
1996. The Bank expects its deposit insurance premiums to be reduced from current
levels, beginning in 1997.
Holding Company Regulation
Guaranty is a unitary savings and loan holding company subject to
regulatory oversight by the OTS. As such, Guaranty is required to file with the
OTS and is subject to regulation and examination by the OTS. In addition, the
OTS has enforcement authority over Guaranty and its non-savings association
subsidiaries which also permits the OTS to restrict or prohibit activities that
are determined to be a serious risk to the subsidiary savings association. This
relation and oversight is intended primarily for the protection of the
depositors of the Bank and not for stockholders of Guaranty.
As a unitary savings and loan holding company, Guaranty generally is
not subject to activity restrictions, provided the Bank satisfies the QTL test.
If Guaranty acquires control of another savings association as a separate
subsidiary, it would become a multiple savings and loan holding company, and the
activities of Guaranty and any of its subsidiaries (other than the Bank or any
other SAIF-insured savings association) would become subject to such
restrictions unless such other associations each qualify as a QTL and were
acquired in a supervisory acquisition.
Guaranty must obtain approval from the OTS before acquiring control of
any other SAIF-insured association. Such acquisition are generally prohibited if
they result in a multiple savings and loan holding company controlling savings
associations in more than one state. However, such interstate acquisitions are
permitted based on specific state authorization or in a supervisory acquisition
of a failing savings association.
-51-
<PAGE>
Charter Conversion
Guaranty and the Bank have filed applications with the Virginia State
Corporation Commission, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and
the FDIC pursuant to which the Bank would convert from a federally-chartered
savings association to a Virginia-chartered, Federal Reserve member commercial
bank. In connection with such applications, Guaranty and the Bank will be
examined by the Bureau of Financial Institutions of the Virginia State
Corporation Commission and the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. There can be no
assurance that such applications will be approved or, if approved, that such
applications will not include conditions that would require Guaranty to modify
substantially its balance sheet or operations. Guaranty does expect that such
applications, if approved, will be conditioned on the sale of substantially all
of the shares offered hereby. Guaranty also expects that the federal and state
banking regulators will seek a commitment from Guaranty to reduce its ratio of
loans-to-deposits, which was 109.5% at September 30, 1996. Guaranty already is
in the process of reducing such ratio and does not expect that such requirement
will materially affect its operations.
After the charter conversion, Guaranty will be subject to the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Bank Holding Company Act"), and
will be subject to regulation by Federal Reserve with respect to its operations
as a bank holding company. The Bank also will be subject to regulation by the
Bureau of Financial Institutions of the Virginia State Corporation Commission,
the Federal Reserve, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The powers
of state member banks and bank holding companies differ from those of federally
chartered savings associations. However, Guaranty does not anticipate any
material changes in its operations as a result of the changes in applicable laws
and regulations that will result from the charter conversion.
As a federally chartered savings association, the Bank may not hold
secured or unsecured loans for commercial, corporate, business or agricultural
purposes in excess of 20 percent of its assets. The sum of consumer loans and
investments in certain corporate obligations may not exceed 35 percent of the
Bank's assets. The Bank also is required to meet a qualified thrift lender test,
which generally requires the Bank to invest the majority of its assets in
mortgage loans. After a charter conversion, there would be no such limits on the
commercial and consumer lending authority of the Bank, nor would the Bank be
subject to the qualified thrift lender test. Recently, the Bank has emphasized
and expanded its small business and consumer lending programs. As its small
business and consumer lending programs evolve, the Bank expects to reduce its
reliance on permanent residential mortgage loans . While loans secured by real
estate are expected to remain an important part of the Bank's business, it
expects that in several years its loan portfolio will more closely resemble that
of a commercial bank than a thrift. Consequently, the Bank believes that
operating under a commercial bank charter will better suit the Bank's business
plan than will the federal savings association charter.
The Bank has the power to engage in certain activities through
subsidiaries, such as real estate development, that are unavailable to a Federal
Reserve member bank. However, the Bank is not engaged in any such activities and
does not view the loss of those powers as a material disadvantage of operating
under a commercial bank charter.
Recent Legislation and Regulations
For tax years beginning prior to January 1, 1996, savings banks that
met certain definitional tests and other conditions prescribed by the Internal
Revenue Code were allowed, within limitations, to deduct from taxable income an
allowance for bad debts using the "percentage of taxable income" method. Section
1616 of the Small Business Job protection Act of 1996 repealed the percentage of
taxable income method of computing bad debt reserves, and requires the recapture
into taxable income of "excess reserves", on a ratable basis over the next 6
years. Excess reserves are defined, in general, as the excess of the balance of
the tax bad debt reserve (using the percentage of taxable income method) as of
the close of the last tax year beginning before January 1, 1996 over the balance
of the reserve as of the close of the last tax year beginning before January 1,
1988. The recapture of the reserves is deferred if the Bank meets the
"residential loan requirement" exception during either or both of the first
-52-
<PAGE>
two years beginning after December 31, 1995. The residential loan requirement is
met, in general, if the principal amount of residential loans made by the Bank
during the year is not less than the Bank's "base amount." The base amount is
defined as the average of the principal amounts of residential loans made during
the six most recent tax years beginning before January 1, 1996.
As a result of this law change, Guaranty must recapture into taxable
income approximately $387,000 ratably over the next 6 years ($64,500 per year),
beginning with the year ending June 30, 1997. The related income tax expense
will be approximately $132,000 ($22,000 per year over the next 6 years). If the
residential loan requirement exception is met, as discussed above, the income
will be includable over the 3rd through 8th years following the year ended June
30, 1996.

Directors' Fees
Directors, excluding directors who are officers of Guaranty, received
fees of $450 for each meeting of the Board of Directors attended and $300 for
each Compensation, Planning and Audit Committee meeting attended during
-57-
<PAGE>
fiscal 1996. Mr. Caton, who is an ex officio of all Committees and devotes
additional time to Guaranty's affairs as Chairman of the Board of Directors,
received a fee of $25,200 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 in lieu of any
fees for attending Board of Directors and Committee meetings.
Employment Agreements
Guaranty and Thomas P. Baker are parties to an employment agreement
that provides for Mr. Baker to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of
Guaranty. The agreement is for a three year period ending June 30, 1997 and
provides for a base salary of $105,000, which the Board of Directors may
increase. If Mr. Baker's employment is terminated for reasons other than cause
or if substantially all of Guaranty's assets and liabilities are transferred to
another financial institution and Mr. Baker either does not become an employee
of the transferee or his employment by the transferee terminates for any reason
within six months of the transfer, he will be entitled to receive severance pay
equal to one-half of his annual base salary in effect at the time.
If termination of employment due to a change in control had occurred in
fiscal 1996, Mr. Baker would be entitled to severance payments amounting to
approximately $56,850.
Transactions with Management
Some of the directors and officers of Guaranty are at present, as in
the past, customers of Guaranty and, Guaranty has had, and expects to have in
the future, banking transactions in the ordinary course of its business with
directors, officers, principal shareholders and their associates, on
substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral on loans,
as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with others.
These transactions do not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or
present other unfavorable features. The largest aggregate outstanding balance of
loans to directors, executive officers and their associates, as a group in the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 was approximately $491,276. Such balances
totaled $266,621 at June 30, 1996, or 4.2% of Guaranty's equity capital at that
date.
There are no legal proceedings to which any director, officer,
principal shareholder or associates is a party that would be material and
adverse to the Bank.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Guaranty's authorized capital stock consists of 4,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, par value $1.25 per share ("Common Stock") and 500,000 shares of
preferred stock. Guaranty had 919,168 issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock held by 614 stockholders of record, at December 11, 1996. All outstanding
shares of Common Stock are fully paid and nonassessable. Guaranty's Board of
Directors has not authorized the issuance of any class or series of preferred
stock.
Common Stock
Holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends
when and as declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available
therefor, provided, however, that the payment of dividends to holders of shares
of Common Stock is subject to the preferential dividend rights of any preferred
stock that the Board of Directors authorizes for issuance in the future.
In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Guaranty,
the holders of Common Stock (and the holders of any class or series of stock
entitled to participate with the Common Stock in the distribution of assets)
shall be entitled to receive, in cash or in kind, the assets of Guaranty
available for distribution remaining after (i) payment or provision for payment
of Guaranty's debts and liabilities and (ii) distributions or provision for
-58-
<PAGE>
distributions to holders of any class or series of stock having preference over
the Common Stock in the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Guaranty.
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all
matters submitted to stockholders. There are no cumulative voting rights in the
election of directors. Guaranty's stockholders do not have preemptive rights to
purchase additional shares of any class of Guaranty's capital stock. Holders of
Common Stock have no conversion or redemption rights. The shares of Common Stock
presently outstanding are, and the Common Stock to be issued in connection with
the Offerings will be when issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Registrar and
Transfer Company is the transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock.
Preferred Stock
Guaranty's Articles of Incorporation authorize the Board of Directors
to determine the preferences, limitations and relative rights of any class or
series of preferred stock before the issuance of any shares of that class or
series. To date, Guaranty's Board of Directors has not authorized the issuance
of any class or series of preferred stock.
Limitations on Liability of Officers and Directors
Limitations on Liability. The Articles of Incorporation of Guaranty
provide that to the full extent that Virginia law permits the limitation or
elimination of the liability of directors and officers, they will not be liable
to Guaranty or its shareholders for any money damages in excess of one dollar.
At this time Virginia law does not permit any limitation of liability if a
director engages in willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal
law or any federal or state securities law.
To the fullest extent permitted by Virginia law, Guaranty's Articles of
Incorporation require it to indemnify any director or officer of Guaranty who is
made a party to any proceeding because he was or is a director or officer of
Guaranty against any liability, including reasonable expenses and legal fees,
incurred in the proceeding. Under Guaranty's Articles of Incorporation,
"proceeding" is broadly defined to include pending, threatened or completed
actions of all types, including actions by or in the right of Guaranty.
Similarly, "liability" is defined to include, not only judgments, but also
settlements, penalties, fines and certain excise taxes. Guaranty's Articles of
Incorporation also provide that Guaranty may, but is not obligated to, indemnify
its other employees or agents. Guaranty must indemnify any person who is or was
serving at the written request of Guaranty as a director, officer, employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, to the full extent provided by Virginia law. The indemnification
provisions also require Guaranty to pay reasonable expenses incurred by a
director or officer of Guaranty in a proceeding in advance of the final
disposition of any such proceeding, provided that the indemnified person
undertakes to repay Guaranty if it is ultimately determined that such person was
not entitled to indemnification. At this time, Virginia law does not permit
indemnification against willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the
criminal law.
The rights of indemnification provided in Guaranty's Articles of
Incorporation are not exclusive of any other rights which may be available under
any insurance or other agreement, by vote of shareholders or disinterested
directors or otherwise. In addition, the Articles of Incorporation authorize
Guaranty to maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of Guaranty, whether or not Guaranty would have the
power to provide indemnification to such person.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling
Guaranty pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Guaranty has been informed that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable.

UNDERWRITING
The Underwriter, McKinnon & Company, Inc., 555 Main Street, Norfolk,
Virginia, has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions contained in an
underwriting agreement with Guaranty, to sell as selling agent for Guaranty on a
best efforts basis, 500,000 Shares. Guaranty reserves the right to increase the
total number of shares offered by not more than 75,000 shares. The Underwriter
is not obligated to purchase the Shares if they are not sold to the public.
The Underwriter has informed Guaranty that it proposes to offer the
Shares as selling agent for Guaranty, subject to prior sale, when, as and if
issued by Guaranty, in part to the public at the Public Offering price, and in
part through certain selected dealers to customers of such selected dealers at
the Public Offering price, for which each selected dealer will receive a
commission of $.42 for each Share that it sells. The Underwriter reserves the
right to reject any order for the purchase of Shares through it in whole or in
part.
The Public Offering is not contingent upon the occurrence of any event
or the sale of a minimum or maximum number of Shares. Funds received by the
Underwriter from investors in the Public Offering will be deposited with and
held by the Escrow Agent in a noninterest-bearing escrow account until the
closing of the Public Offering. Closing is expected to occur on or about January
29, 1997.
Among the factors considered in determining the Offering Price were the
market price of Guaranty Common Stock, the history and the prospects for
Guaranty, its past and present earnings and trend of such earnings, the
prospects for future earnings, the current performance and prospects of the
banking and thrift industry in which it competes, the general condition of the
securities market at the time of the Public Offering, and the prices of equity
securities of comparable savings and loans and savings and loan holding
companies.
The directors of Guaranty have agreed that they will not sell, contract
to sell, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock or any securities
convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of Common Stock for a period of
120 days after the date of the commencement of the Offerings without the prior
written consent of the Underwriter Officers of Guaranty who are not directors
have not entered into any agreements restricting sales of their Common Stock in
Guaranty. The Underwriter may from time to time be a customer of, engage in
functions with, and perform services for Guaranty in the ordinary course of
business.
Guaranty has agreed to indemnify the Underwriter against certain
liabilities, including liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Guaranty has agreed to pay the Underwriter's legal fees, which will not exceed
$10,000, and to reimburse the Underwriter up to $1,000 for costs of
informational and due diligence meetings.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby will be
passed upon for Guaranty by Williams, Mullen, Christian & Dobbins of Richmond,
Virginia. Certain legal matters are being passed upon for the Underwriter by
Williams, Mullen, Christian & Dobbins.

Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Guaranty Financial Corporation
Charlottesville, Virginia
We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Guaranty Financial
Corporation and subsidiary as of June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 1996. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Guaranty Financial Corporation and subsidiary as of June 30, 1996 and 1995, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended June 30, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
As explained in the Summary of Accounting Policies, Guaranty Financial
Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 122 and
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 in the years ended June 30,
1996 and 1994, respectively.

Summary of Accounting Policies

Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 is Unaudited)
Nature of Business
and Regulatory
Environment
Guaranty Financial Corporation (the "Parent Company") is a unitary thrift
holding company whose principal asset is its wholly-owned subsidiary, Guaranty
Savings & Loan, F.A. (the "Savings Bank"). The Savings Bank provides a full
range of banking services to individual and corporate customers. In these
financial statements the consolidated group is referred to collectively as "the
Corporation".
The Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS"), is the primary regulator for federally
chartered savings associations, as well as savings and loan holding companies.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") is the federal deposit
insurance administrator for both banks and savings associations. The FDIC has
specified authority to prescribe and enforce such regulations and issue such
orders as it deems necessary to prevent actions or practices by savings
associations that pose a serious threat to the Savings Association Insurance
Fund.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") was
effective January 1, 1993. FDICIA contained provisions which allow regulators to
impose prompt corrective action on undercapitalized institutions in accordance
with a categorized capital-based system.
Principles of
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Guaranty Financial
Corporation and Guaranty Savings & Loan, F.A., its wholly-owned subsidiary, and
GMSC, Inc. and Guaranty Investment Corp., wholly-owned subsidiary of the Savings
Bank. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated
in the consolidation. Prior year accounts are reclassified when necessary to
conform to current year classifications.
Reorganization
On December 29, 1995, the Savings Bank and the Corporation consummated the
reorganization of the Savings Bank into a unitary-thrift holding company
structure whereby the Savings Bank became the wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Corporation. Each outstanding share of the common stock of the Savings Bank
became one share of the common stock of the Corporation. This transaction was
accounted for as a pooling of interests.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(continued)
Investment Securities
In May 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS 115), "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". The Corporation adopted the
provisions of SFAS 115 during the year ended June 30, 1995. The adoption of this
Statement had no effect on the operations of the Corporation. SFAS 115 addresses
the accounting and reporting of investments in equity securities that have
readily determinable fair values and for all investments in debt securities.
Investments in securities are to be classified as either held-to-maturity,
trading, or available for sale.
Investments in debt securities classified as held-to-maturity are stated at
cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts using the
level yield method. Management has a positive intent and ability to hold these
securities to maturity and, accordingly, adjustments are not made for temporary
declines in their market value below amortized cost. Investment in Federal Home
Loan Bank stock is stated at cost.
Investments in debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale are
stated at market value with unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from
earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of
tax effect, until realized.
Investments in debt and equity securities classified as trading are stated at
market value. Unrealized holding gains and losses for trading securities are
included in the statement of operations.
Gains and losses on the sale of securities are determined using the specific
identification method.
Options
Premiums received for writing put and call options are recorded as a liability
and are taken into income if the option is closed prior to maturity or expires.
Upon exercise of the option, the premium is treated as an adjustment to the
basis of the underlying security.
Loans Held for
Sale
Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are
carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net
unrealized losses are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to
income.

Loans Receivable
Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the
foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their
outstanding principal adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for loan
losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized
premiums or discounts on purchased loans.
Loans receivable consists primarily of long-term real estate loans secured by
first deeds of trust on single family residences, other residential property,
commercial property and land located primarily in the state of Virginia.
Interest income on mortgage loans is recorded when earned and is recognized
based on the level yield method. The Corporation provides an allowance for
accrued interest deemed to be uncollectible, which is netted against accrued
interest receivable in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Corporation defers loan origination and commitment fees, net of certain
direct loan origination costs, and the net deferred fees are amortized into
interest income over the lives of the related loans as yield adjustments. Any
unamortized net fees on loans fully repaid or sold are recognized as income in
the year of repayment or sale.
Sale of Loans
and Participation
in Loans
The Corporation is able to generate funds by selling loans and participations in
loans to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") and to other
insured investors. Under participation servicing agreements, the Corporation
continues to service the loans and the participant is paid its share of
principal and interest collections.
Effective July 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 122 (SFAS 122), "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing
Rights an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 65". SFAS 122 requires entities to
allocate the cost of acquiring or originating mortgage loans between the
mortgage servicing rights and the loans, based on their relative fair values, if
the bank sells or securitizes the loans and retains the mortgage servicing
rights. In addition, SFAS 122 requires entities to assess its capitalized
mortgage servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of those
rights.

Sale of Loans
and Participation
in Loans
(continued)
The cost of mortgage servicing rights is amortized in proportion to, and over
the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment of mortgage
servicing rights is assessed based on the fair value of those rights. Fair
values are estimated using discounted cash flows based on a current market
interest rate. For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights are stratified
based on the predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans. The
amount of impairment recognized is the amount by which the capitalized mortgage
servicing rights for a stratum exceed their fair value.
Allowance for
Possible Loan
Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered by management
to be adequate to absorb future loan losses currently inherent in the loan
portfolio. Management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance is based
upon type and volume of the loan portfolio, past loan loss experience, existing
and anticipated economic conditions, and other factors which deserve current
recognition in estimating future loan losses. Additions to the allowance are
charged to operations. Loans are charged-off partially or wholly at the time
management determines collectibility is not probable. Management's assessment of
the adequacy of the allowance is subject to evaluation and adjustment by the
Corporation's regulators.
Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when the collection of principal
or interest is 90 days or more past due, or earlier if collection is uncertain
based upon an evaluation of the value of the underlying collateral and the
financial strength of the borrower. Loans may be reinstated to accrual status
when all payments are brought current and, in the opinion of management,
collection of the remaining balance can be reasonably expected. Loans greater
than 90 days past due may remain on accrual status if management determines it
has adequate collateral to cover the principal and interest.
Effective July 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 114 (SFAS 114), "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan (as amended by SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures"). The effect of adopting these new
accounting standards were immaterial to the operating results of the Corporation
for the year ended June 30, 1996.

Allowance for
Possible Loan
Losses
(continued)
Under the new accounting standard, a loan is considered to be impaired when it
is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all principal and
interest amounts according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. A
performing loan may be considered impaired. The allowance for loan losses
related to loans identified as impaired is primarily based on the excess of the
loan's current outstanding principal balance over the estimated fair market
value of the related collateral. For a loan that is not collateral-dependent,
the allowance is recorded at the amount by which the outstanding principal
balance exceeds the current best estimate of the future cash flows on the loan
discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate. Prior to 1995, the
allowance for loan losses for all loans which would have qualified as impaired
under the new accounting standards was primarily based upon the estimated fair
market value of the related collateral.
For impaired loans that are on nonaccrual status, cash payments received are
generally applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance. However, all or a
portion of a cash payment received on a nonaccrual loan may be recognized as
interest income to the extent allowed by the loan contract, assuming management
expects to fully collect the remaining principal balance on the loan.
Real Estate
Owned
Real estate acquired through foreclosure is initially recorded at the lower of
fair value, less selling costs, or the balance of the loan on the property at
date of foreclosure. Costs relating to the development and improvement of
property are capitalized, whereas those relating to holding the property are
charged to expense.
Valuations are periodically performed by management, and an allowance for losses
is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property
exceeds its estimated fair value.

Securities Sold
Under Agreements to
Repurchase
The Corporation enters into sales of securities under agreements to repurchase
(reverse repurchase agreements). Fixed-coupon reverse repurchase agreements are
treated as financings, and the obligations to repurchase securities sold are
reflected as a liability in the consolidated statements of condition. The dollar
amount of securities underlying the agreements remain in the asset accounts.
Office Properties
and Equipment
Office properties and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation
and amortization. Provisions for depreciation and amortization are computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the individual
assets or the terms of the related leases, if shorter, for leasehold
improvements. Expenditures for betterments and major renewals are capitalized
and ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Income Taxes
During the year ended June 30, 1994, the Corporation adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which
required a change from the deferred method to the asset and liabilities method
of accounting for income taxes.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income
tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or
liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or
rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the
provision for income taxes.
The Corporation has reported the cumulative effect of change in the method of
accounting for income taxes as of the beginning of the 1994 fiscal year in the
consolidated statement of operations.
For tax years beginning prior to January 1, 1996, savings banks that met certain
definitional tests and other conditions prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code
were allowed, within limitations, to deduct from taxable income an allowance for
bad debts using the "percentage of taxable income" method. The cumulative bad
debt reserve, upon which no taxes have been paid, was approximately $1,086,000
at June 30, 1996.

Income Taxes
(continued)
Section 1616 of the Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 (the "Act")
repealed the percentage of taxable income method of computing bad debt reserve,
and requires the recapture into taxable income of "excess reserves", on a
ratable basis over the next six years. Excess reserves are defined, in general,
as the excess of the balance of the tax bad debt reserve (using the percentage
of taxable income method) as of the close of the last tax year beginning before
January 1, 1996 over the balance of the reserve as of the close of the last tax
year beginning before January 1, 1988. The recapture of the reserves is deferred
if the Corporation meets the "residential loan requirement" exception, during
either or both of the first two years beginning after December 31, 1995. The
residential loan requirement is met, in general, if the principal amount of
residential loans made by the Corporation during the year is not less than the
Corporation's "base amount". The base amount is defined as the average of the
principal amounts of residential loans made during the six most recent tax years
beginning before January 1, 1996.
As a result of the Act, the Corporation must recapture into taxable income
approximately $387,000 ratably over the next six years, beginning with the year
ending June 30, 1997. If the residential loan requirement exception is met, as
discussed above, the income will be includable over the 3rd through 8th years
following the year ended June 30, 1996.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during each period including the assumed exercise of
dilutive stock options, and is retroactively adjusted for stock dividends and
stock splits. The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
were 917,668, 541,768 and 537,168 for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively, and 919,168 and 915,568 for the three months ended September
30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.

Statement of Cash
Flows
Cash and cash equivalents include Federal funds sold with original maturities of
three months or less. Interest paid was approximately $5,179,000, $4,685,000 and
$5,156,000 for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Interest paid was approximately $1,002,000 and $684,000 for the three month
period ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Cash paid for income
taxes was approximately $180,000, $42,000 and $159,000 for the years ended June
30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Cash paid for income taxes was
approximately $183,000 and $15,000 for the three month period ended September
30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Real estate acquired in settlement of loans
during the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 was approximately $33,000 and
$122,000, respectively. Real estate acquired in the settlement of loans during
the three month period ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was approximately
$97,000 and $45,000, respectively.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year consolidated
financial statements and notes to conform to the September 30, 1996
presentation.
New Accounting
Pronouncements
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued its Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS 121), "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of".
SFAS 121 requires that long-lived assets and certain intangibles to be held and
used by an entity be reviewed for impairment when events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In
addition, SFAS 121 requires long-lived assets and certain intangibles to be
disposed of to be reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less
costs to sell. SFAS 121 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1995. Management does not expect the application of this pronouncement to
have a material effect on the financial statements of the Corporation.

New Accounting
Pronouncements
(continued)
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued its Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), "Accounting for Stock-
Based Compensation." SFAS No. 123 allows companies to continue to account for
their stock option plans in accordance with APB Opinion 25 but encourages the
adoption of a new accounting method based on the estimated fair value of
employee stock options. Companies electing not to follow the new fair value
based method are required to provide expanded footnote disclosures, including
pro forma net income and earnings per share, determined as if the company had
applied the new method. SFAS No. 123 is required to be adopted by the
Corporation prospectively beginning July 1, 1996. Management does not expect the
application of this pronouncement to have a material effect on the financial
statements of the Corporation.
In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued its Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 125 (SFAS 125), "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities". This
Statement provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. After a
transfer of financial assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing
assets it controls and the liabilities it has incurred, derecognizes financial
assets when control has been surrendered, and derecognizes liabilities when
extinguished. In addition, a transfer of financial assets in which the
transferor surrenders control over those assets is accounted for as a sale to
the extent that consideration other than beneficial interests in the transferred
assets is received in exchange. SFAS 125 is effective for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after
December 31, 1996, and is to be applied prospectively. Management does not
expect the application of this pronouncement to have a material effect on the
financial statements of the Corporation.
Regulatory
Supervisory
Agreement
During May 1995, the Savings Bank entered into a Supervisory Agreement with the
OTS that required Savings Bank to take specific actions and placed limitations
on its growth. Among the actions the Savings Bank agreed to undertake were:
revise its business plan to indicate how it will increase its capital levels and
review and revise its policies related to interest rate risk, investment
activities and liquidity maintenance. In addition, the Savings Bank was required
by the agreement to obtain OTS approval prior to making any distribution to the
holders of its common stock.

On June 28, 1995, the Savings Bank completed an initial public offering of its
common stock resulting in the Corporation being considered "well capitalized"

On August 11, 1995, the Savings Bank was granted a waiver of the growth
limitations of the Supervisory Agreement allowing growth in accordance with the
Corporation's approved business plan.
On May 14, 1996, the May 1995 Supervisory Agreement with the OTS was terminated.

5. Fair Value of
Financial
Instruments
(continued)
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that
value.
Cash and short-term investments
For those short-term investments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate
of fair value.
Securities
Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted
market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market
prices for similar securities.
Loan receivables
The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using
the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar
remaining maturities. This calculation ignores loan fees and certain factors
affecting the interest rates charged on various loans such as the borrower's
creditworthiness and compensating balances and dissimilar types of real estate
held as collateral.
Deposit liabilities
The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market
deposits is the amount payable on demand at the balance sheet date. The fair
value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates
currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank
For advances that mature within one year of the balance sheet date, carrying
value is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.
The fair values of all other advances are estimated using discounted cash flow
analysis based on the Corporation's current incremental borrowing rate for
similar types of advances.

(continued)
5. Fair Value of
Financial
Instruments
(continued)
Securities sold under agreement to repurchase
Fixed-coupon reverse repurchase agreements are treated as short-term financings.
The carrying value is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Bonds payable
Due to the nature and terms (Note 6) of the bonds payable held by GMSC, Inc.
at June 30, 1996, it was not deemed practicable to estimate the fair value.
Commitments to extend credit
The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to
enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the
agreements and the present creditworthiness of the borrowers. For fixed-rate
loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current
levels of interest rates and the committed rates. Because of the competitive
nature of the marketplace loan fees vary greatly with no fees charged in many
cases.
Forward Commitments to purchase mortgage-backed securities
Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

6. Bonds Payable
In October 1987, GMSC, Inc. issued serial bonds ("the Bonds") collateralized by
mortgage-backed securities which are treated as a real estate mortgage
investment conduit ("REMIC") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 for federal
tax purposes. The Bonds are secured by an indenture between GMSC, Inc. and the
Bank of New York, acting as trustee for the bondholders. The Bonds are

The Bonds are repaid in conjunction with the net cash flow from the
mortgage-backed securities together with the reinvestment income thereon. As a
result, the actual life of the Bonds is less than their stated maturities.
Interest is paid as incurred on the Class A-2 Bonds and is accrued and added to
the principal amount due on the Class A-3 Bonds. The indenture also provides for
the establishment of two trust accounts to insure the timely payment of
interest, debt maturities, trustee and accounting fees and other expenses. The
account established for payment of trustee and accounting fees is included in
cash on the statement of condition. The account established for payment of
interest and debt maturities is netted with cash and bonds payable on the
statement of condition.

11. Commitments
and
Contingencies
Continuing uncertainty exists as to the sufficiency of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation's ("FDIC") Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF").
Legislators and thrift regulators are considering alternative methods of
strengthening this fund. Virtually all of the existing proposals will require
additional funding from the thrifts whose deposits are insured by the FDIC.
Possible future increases in FDIC insurance costs for the Savings Bank cannot be
estimated.
Pursuant to the Economic Growth and Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 (the "Act"),
the FDIC imposed a special assessment on SAIF members to capitalize the SAIF at
the designated reserve level of 1.25% as of September 30, 1996. Based on the
Company's deposits as of March 31, 1995, the date for measuring the amount of
the special assessment pursuant to the Act, the Company will pay a special
assessment of approximately $347,000 to capitalize the SAIF. The FDIC is
expected to lower the premium for deposit insurance to a level necessary to
maintain the SAIF at its required reserve level; however, the range of premiums
has not been determined.
The Corporation leases office space under operating leases expiring at various
dates through December 1998 and has a contract for the performance of data
processing services whose initial term expires in May 1999 and requires minimum
payments of $8,100 per month. Future minimum rental and data processing payments
required that have initial or remaining noncancelable terms in excess of one
year as of June 30, 1996, are as follows:

11. Commitments
and
Contingencies
(continued)
Total rental expense amounted to approximately $168,000, $187,000 and $180,000
for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and $11,682 and
$46,524 for the periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Total
data processing expense amounted to approximately $257,000, $210,000 and
$199,900 for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and
$70,511 and $62,259 for the periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
The Corporation is defendant in various lawsuits incidental to its business.
Management is of the opinion that its financial position will not be materially
affected by the ultimate resolution of any litigation pending or threatened.
12. Stockholders'
Equity
On June 28, 1995, the Corporation completed an initial public offering of its
common stock through the sale of 180,000 shares of common stock at a price of
$13.00 per share. Proceeds to the Corporation from the offering (net of offering
expenses of approximately $312,000) were approximately $2,028,000.
On November 30, 1995, the Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split
to be distributed on January 31, 1996, to all shareholders of record as of
January 15, 1996.
Savings institutions must maintain specific capital standards that are no less
stringent than the capital standards applicable to national banks. The OTS
regulations currently have three capital standards including (i) a tangible
capital requirement, (ii) a core capital requirement, and (iii) a risk-based
capital requirement. The tangible capital standard requires savings institutions
to maintain tangible capital of not less than 1.5% of adjusted total assets. The
core capital standard requires a savings institution to maintain core capital of
not less than 3.0% of adjusted total assets. The risk-based capital standard
requires risk-based capital of not less than 8.0% of risk-weighted assets.
At September 30, 1996, the Savings Bank met all three regulatory capital
requirements applicable to it under Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and
Enforcement Act ("FIRREA") and was considered "well capitalized" under the
prompt corrective action framework of FDICIA.

The Corporation may not declare or pay a cash dividend, or repurchase any of its
capital stock if the effect thereof would cause the net worth of the Corporation
to be reduced below the net worth requirement imposed by federal regulations.
13. Stock Option

14. Employee Benefit
Plans
Effective February 16, 1989, the Corporation adopted a 401(k) profit-sharing
plan in which all employees are eligible to participate after one year of
service and are at least twenty-one years of age. Participants may elect to
contribute a percentage of their compensation to the plan. The Corporation may
make contributions to the plan at its discretion. Corporation contributions are
allocated to employee accounts using a systematic formula based on participant
compensation. The Corporation contributed approximately $4,600, $5,800 and
$4,700 to the plan for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, and $2,800 and $1,200 for the periods ended September 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively.
15. Financial
Instruments With
Off-Balance-Sheet
Risk
The Corporation is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk
in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers
and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, options written and
purchased, forward commitments to purchase mortgage-backed securities and
standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees,
elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in
the statement of condition. The contract or notional amounts of these
instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Corporation has in particular
classes of financial instruments.
The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit written is represented by the contractual notional
amount of those instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in
making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet
instruments. For options purchased, the contract or notional amounts do not
represent exposure to credit loss.

Unless noted otherwise, the Corporation does not require collateral or other

Financial instruments whose contract

</TABLE>
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire
without being completely drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not
necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Corporation evaluates each
customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the
Corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The
credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as
that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
Substantially all of the Corporation's loan activity was with customers located
in Charlottesville, Virginia and surrounding counties, with approximately 81% of
the loans collateralized by one to four family residential properties.
