CAMERON FINANCIAL CORPORATION
ANNOUNCES MANAGEMENT CHANGE
Cameron, Missouri - Cameron Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: CMRN)
announced today that President and Chief Executive Officer David G.
Just has informed the Board of Directors of his intention to retire
from active management of Cameron Financial Corporation and its
subsidiaries, The Cameron Savings & Loan Association, F.A., and The
Cameron Savings and Loan Service Corporation.
In action taken on February 29, 2000, the Board of Directors
promoted Duane E. Kohlstaedt to Executive Vice President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company and the Association, replacing Mr.
Just. Mr. Kohlstaedt was hired in April 1999 as Loan Department
Manager for the Liberty Office of Cameron Savings. Prior to
joining the Association, Mr. Kohlstaedt had worked in the Farm
Credit System for nineteen years, managing the Cameron Farm Credit
office for nine years before being promoted to Regional Vice
President for Northwest Missouri, responsible for four Farm Credit
System offices. Mr. Kohlstaedt is a graduate of the University of
Missouri, Columbia, with a degree in agricultural finance. He
resides with his family in Kearney, Missouri.
Jon N. Crouch, Cameron Financial Corporation Chairman, commented
that Mr. Kohlstaedt's extensive prior experience should provide
effective leadership for the Corporation and Cameron Savings into
the future. Chairman Crouch further acknowledged the nearly
twenty-three years of service provided by Mr. Just, during which
time the Company has grown from a $60 million mutual institution to
a $271 million holding company.
Mr. Just will continue to serve the Company and the Association in
an executive capacity until his retirement, expected on October 13,
2000. He will serve as a management advisor and special projects
leader until that date, and will also continue as a member of the
Board of Directors. Mr. Just and his family will continue to live
on their farm near Cameron.
At December 31, 1999, capital ratios of the Association exceeded
all regulatory requirements. The Association currently operates
three offices in Maryville, Mound City and Liberty, Missouri, in
addition to the home office in Cameron, Missouri.
