NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Note 1.  Background Information

On October 5, 1995, CSB Financial  Group,  Inc. (the "Company")  acquired all of
the  outstanding  shares of Centralia  Savings Bank (the "Bank") upon the Bank's
conversion  from a state  chartered  mutual  savings  bank to a state  chartered
capital stock savings bank.  Centralia Savings Bank is located in Masson County,
Illinois.  The Company  purchased 100% of the  outstanding  capital stock of the
Bank using 50% of the net proceeds  from the Company's  initial  stock  offering
which was  completed on October 5, 1995.  The Company sold  1,035,000  shares of
$0.01 par value common stock at a price of $8 per share, including 82,800 shares
purchased by the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP").  The ESOP shares
were acquired by the Bank with  proceeds from a Company loan totaling  $662,400.
The gross  proceeds  of the  offering  were  $8,280,000.  After  reducing  gross
proceeds for conversion costs of $696,000, net proceeds totaled $7,584,000.  The
Company's stock trades on the NASDAQ Small Caps market under the symbol "CSBF".

The  acquisition of the Bank by the Company is being accounted for as a "pooling
of interests" under generally accepted accounting principles. The application of
the pooling of interests method records the assets and liabilities of the merged
entities on a historical cost basis with no goodwill or other intangible  assets
being recorded.


Note 2.  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of CSB
Financial Group, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary,  Centralia Savings Bank, the
Bank, and the Bank's  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Centralia  SLA.  Centralia SLA,
Inc.'s  principal  business  activity  is to  provide  insurance  services.  All
significant  intercompany  accounts and  transactions  have been  eliminated  in
consolidation.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited
and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes  thereto  included in the Bank's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended  September 30, 1996. The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial
statements  have been  prepared in  accordance  with the  instructions  for Form
10-QSB and,  therefore,  do not include information or footnotes necessary for a
complete  presentation of financial condition,  results of operations,  and cash
flows in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  In the
opinion of  management  of the Company,  the  unaudited  consolidated  financial
statements  reflect all  adjustments  necessary to present  fairly the financial
position of the Company at June 30, 1997 the results of operations for the three
months  ended June 30,  1997 and 1996,  and the results of  operations  and cash
flows for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.  All  adjustments to the
financial statements were normal and recurring in nature.

Operating  results for the three  months and nine months ended June 30, 1997 are
not  necessarily  indicative  of the results  that may be expected  for the year
ending September 30, 1997.


Note 3.  Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are  determined  by dividing net income for the period by the
weighted  average number of shares of common stock and common stock  equivalents
outstanding.  Common stock equivalents  assume exercise of stock options and use
of proceeds  to purchase  treasury  stock at the  average  market  price for the
period.  Shares  awarded under the  management  recognition  plan are considered
outstanding as common stock equivalents at the issuance date. Unallocated shares
of the ESOP are not considered outstanding.
<PAGE>


Note 4.  Employee Stock Ownership Plan

In connection  with the conversion to the stock form of ownership,  the Board of
Directors  established an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) for the exclusive
benefit of participating employees. Employees age 21 or older who have completed
one year of service are eligible to participate. Upon the issuance of the common
stock,  the ESOP  acquired  82,800 shares of $0.01 par value common stock at the
subscription  price of $8 per share.  The Bank makes  contributions  to the ESOP
equal to the ESOP's  debt  service  less  dividends  received  by the ESOP.  All
dividends  received  by the ESOP are used to pay debt  service.  The ESOP shares
were  pledged as  collateral  for its debt.  As the debt is  repaid,  shares are
released from collateral and allocated to active  employees,  based on the ratio
of debt service  paid to the total  original  principal  plus the interest to be
paid.  The Bank accounts for its ESOP in accordance  with  Statement of Position
93-6.  As shares are released  from  collateral,  the Bank reports  compensation
expense equal to the current  market price of the shares,  and the shares become
outstanding for earnings-per-share  calculations.  ESOP compensation expense was
$60,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1997.

On July 14, 1997, the Company announced a repurchase program whereby the Company
would  repurchase  up to 94,185 shares of common  stock.  During July 1997,  the
Company repurchased 41,400 shares from the ESOP plan. Following this repurchase,
the ESOP held 25,853 unallocated ESOP shares with a fair value of $310,236.


Note 5.  Stock Option Plan

At the annual  stockholder's  meeting on May 22,  1996,  the Stock  Option  Plan
("SOP") was approved. The board has reserved an amount of stock equal to 103,500
shares or 10% of the common stock sold in the  conversion for issuance under the
SOP. The options will be granted by a Committee,  comprised of directors, to key
employees and directors based on their  services.  The exercise price of options
granted  must be at least equal to the fair market  value of the common stock on
the date the  option is  granted.  The  options  granted  under the plan  become
exercisable at a rate of 20 percent per year commencing one year after the grant
date and 20 percent on each anniversary date for the following four years. As of
June 30, 1997, 51,750 options had been granted.

The Board  adopted  the 1997  Nonqualified  Stock  Option  Plan (SOP)  effective
January 9, 1997.  The Board has  reserved up to 103,500  shares of common  stock
under  the SOP.  The  options  will be  granted  by a  committee,  comprised  of
directors,  to key employees and directors based on their services. The exercise
price of the option  granted  must be at least equal to the fair market value of
the common stock on the date the option is granted. The terms of the options and
the  exercise  schedule  are  at the  discretion  of the  committee  and  option
agreements  need not be  identical.  As of June 30,  1997,  no options  had been
granted.

Note 6.  Management Recognition Plan

The Management  Recognition  Plan ("MRP") was approved with an effective date of
October  10,  1996 and  amended on January 9, 1997.  The MRP intends to purchase
with funds  provided  by the  Company,  whether  in the open  market or from the
Holding Company in the form of newly issued shares,  62,100 shares, or 6% of the
aggregate  number of shares of Common Stock issued and sold in  connection  with
the Conversion for issuance to officers, directors, and employees of the Holding
Company.  Directors,  officers,  and  employees  become  vested in the shares of
common stock awarded to them under the MRP at a rate of 20% per year, commencing
one year after the grant date, and 20% on the  anniversary  date thereof for the
following  four years.  As of June 30, 1997,  18,630 shares have been awarded to
officers, directors, and employees. MRP compensation expense was $22,000 for the
nine months ended June 30,  1997.  The bank  accounts for its MRP in  accordance
with Accounting Principle Board Statement 25. Compensation expense is recognized
over the vesting period for shares awarded under the plan.

Note 7.  New Accounting Standards

Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standard No. 128,  "Earnings per Share" (FAS
128), was issued in February 1997 by the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board.
The Statement replaces the presentation of primary earnings per share (EPS) with
a  presentation  of basic EPS. It also requires dual  presentation  of basic and
diluted  EPS on the face of the  income  statement  for  entities  with  complex
capital  structures.  Basic EPS is  computed as net income  available  to common
stockholders  divided by the weighted  average  common shares  outstanding.  The
Statement is effective for financial  statements issued for periods ending after
December  15, 1997.  The Company does not believe the adoption of the  Statement
will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
<PAGE>

In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement #130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income,"
and Statement #131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information."  Statement #130 establishes standards for reporting comprehensive 
income in financial statements.  Statement #131 expands certain reporting and 
disclosure requirements for segments from current standards.  The statements 
are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997 and the Company
does not expect the adoption of these standards to result in material changes
to previously reported amounts or disclosures.

CSB FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.

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


General

The  principal  assets of the Company are its  investment  in the Bank's  common
stock  and the net  proceeds  from the  sale of the  Company's  common  stock in
connection  with the  conversion.  The  Company's  principal  revenue  source is
interest and dividends on its  investments.  The principal  business of the Bank
consists of attracting deposits from the general public and using these funds to
originate  mortgage  loans  secured by one- to  four-family  residences  located
primarily in  Centralia,  Illinois and  surrounding  areas.  The Bank engages in
various forms of consumer and commercial  lending and invests in mortgage-backed
U.S.  Government and federal agency  securities,  local  municipal  issues,  and
interest-bearing deposits. The Bank's profitability depends primarily on its net
interest income, which is the difference between the interest income it earns on
its loans,  mortgage-backed  and  investment  portfolio,  and its cost of funds,
which  consists  mainly of interest  paid on deposits.  Net  interest  income is
affected by the relative amounts of  interest-earning  assets,  interest-bearing
liabilities, and the interest rates earned or paid on these balances.

The Bank's profitability is also affected by the level of noninterest income and
expense.  Noninterest  income consists primarily of late charges and other fees.
Noninterest  expense  consists  of  salaries  and  benefits,  occupancy  related
expenses,  deposit  insurance  premiums  paid to the SAIF,  and other  operating
expenses.

The  operations of the Bank are  significantly  influenced  by general  economic
conditions,  related  monetary,  and fiscal policies of financial  institutions'
regulatory  agencies.  Deposit  flows  and the cost of funds are  influenced  by
interest  rates on competing  investments  and general market rates of interest.
Lending  activities  are  affected by the demand for  financing  real estate and
other types of loans,  which in turn is affected by the interest  rates at which
such  financing may be offered and other factors  affecting  loan demand and the
availability of funds.

Business Strategy

The  business  strategy  is to operate  as a well  capitalized,  profitable  and
independent  community  savings bank  dedicated to financing  home ownership and
consumer  needs in its  primary  market  area.  The Bank  has  implemented  this
strategy by: (1) closely monitoring the needs of customers and providing quality
service; (2) emphasizing  consumer-oriented  banking by originating construction
and  permanent  loans on  residential  and  commercial  real estate and consumer
loans, and by offering other financial services and products;  (3) improving and
maintaining high asset quality;  (4) maintaining capital in excess of regulatory
requirements; and (5) managing interest rate risk by emphasizing the origination
of loans with  adjustable  rates or shorter terms and  investments in short-term
and liquid  investments.  The Bank has adopted  various new business  strategies
intended to increase its presence in its primary market area, thereby increasing
its lending activities and sources of income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  Bank's  primary  sources  of funds  consists  of  deposits,  repayment  and
prepayment of loans,  maturities of investments and  interest-bearing  deposits.
Scheduled  repayments of loans and mortgage-backed  securities and maturities of
investment  securities are  predictable,  influenced by general  interest rates,
economic  conditions,  and  competition.  The Bank uses its liquidity  resources
principally  to fund  existing  and future loan  commitments,  to fund  maturing
certificates  of deposit  and  demand  deposit  withdrawals,  to invest in other
interest-earning  assets, to maintain liquidity, and to meet operating expenses.
Management  believes  that loan  repayments  and other  sources of funds will be
adequate to meet the Bank's liquidity needs for the immediate future.
<PAGE>


A portion of the Bank's liquidity  consists of cash and cash equivalents,  which
include investments in highly liquid,  short-term  deposits.  The level of these
assets is dependent on the Bank's  operating,  investing,  lending and financing
activities  during any given  period.  At June 30, 1997 and  September 30, 1996,
cash and cash equivalents  totaled $4.0 million and $4.8 million,  respectively.
The decrease in cash and cash  equivalents  is due to the repurchase of treasury
shares and the maturity of the Bank's time deposits.

Liquidity  management  is  both a  daily  and  long-term  function  of  business
management.  If the Bank  requires  funds  beyond its ability to  generate  them
internally,  the Bank may borrow  additional  funds  from the FHLB.  At June 30,
1997, the Bank had no outstanding advances from the FHLB.

At June 30, 1997, the Bank had $924,000 of outstanding  commitments to originate
loans.

Regulatory Capital

Federally insured savings associations such as the Bank are required to maintain
a minimum level of regulatory  capital.  The Corporation and its subsidiary have
capital  ratios which  substantially  exceed all  regulatory  requirements.  The
Corporation's capital ratios are shown below.

Total  assets  decreased  $1,172,000  to  $48,844,000  at  June  30,  1997  from
$50,016,000  at September  30, 1996.  The decrease  resulted  from a decrease of
$814,000 in cash and cash  equivalents due to the purchase of treasury stock and
the maturity of time deposits.

The gross loans have increased  $171,000 from  $27,048,000 at September 30, 1996
to $27,219,000 at June 30, 1997. The increase is primarily  installment lending.
While the loan growth since  September 30, 1996 was primarily  installment,  the
Bank  continues to focus their efforts in the expansion of the  commercial  loan
market  and  continues  to  originate   commercial   loans  which  meet  prudent
underwriting standards.

Securities  and  securities  purchased  under  agreements  to  resell  decreased
$453,000  since  September  30, 1996.  The proceeds from sales and paydowns were
used to purchase treasury stock and fund the maturities of time deposits.

Results of Operations

Three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to three months ended June 30, 1996

Net Income - The  Company's  net income for the three months ended June 30, 1997
was $52,000  compared to $105,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996.  The
decrease in net income resulted primarily from an increase in compensation costs
associated with the Employee Stock Option Plan, the Management Recognition Plan,
and the addition of personnel due to the  acquisition  of the Carlyle  branch in
September 1996.

Interest Income - Interest income  increased for the three months ended June 30,
1997 by $99,000 to $809,000  from  $710,000  for the three months ended June 30,
1996.  This  increase is a result of the increase in the volume of loans held by
the Bank due to continued  focus on commercial and mortgage loan growth combined
with the loans purchased during the Carlyle acquisition.

Interest  Expense - Interest  expense  increased for the three months ended June
30, 1997 by $92,000 to $412,000  from  $320,000  for the three months ended June
30, 1996.  This results  from an increase in the cost of funds  associated  with
time  deposits  purchased in the Carlyle  branch  acquisition  combined  with an
increase in the volume of time deposits.

Net Interest  Income - Net  interest  income for the three months ended June 30,
1997  increased by $7,000 to $397,000  from  $390,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1996. The increase is attributable to an increased loan base associated
with the Carlyle branch acquisition September 13, 1996.
<PAGE>



The increase in noninterest expense of $78,000 is attributable to an increase of
$80,000 in compensation  and employee  benefits  expense related to the employee
stock option plan,  Management  Recognition  Plan, and the addition of personnel
due to the  acquisition of the Carlyle branch in September  1996.  Additionally,
the  increase  in other  noninterest  expense is  attributable  to  amortization
expense  of  intangible  assets  related  to the  Carlyle  acquisition  totaling
$15,000. The decrease in professional fees is the result of fees incurred during
fiscal year 1996 for the implementation of the ESOP plan.

The  Company   continues  to  fund  the   allowance  for  loan  losses  as  they
conservatively monitor their loan portfolio.  The provision for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 was $22,000  compared to $10,000 for the three  months ended
June 30, 1996.

Nine months ended June 30, 1997 compared to nine months ended June 30, 1996

Net Income -The Company's net income for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 was
$217,000  compared to  $303,000  for the nine months  ended June 30,  1996.  The
decrease  is a result of  increased  compensation  expense  associated  with the
Employee  Stock Option Plan,  Management  Recognition  Plan,  and the additional
personnel at the Carlyle branch.  Amortization  of intangible  assets related to
the Carlyle branch acquisition also contributed to the decrease in net income.

Interest  Income  -  Interest  income  increased  $289,000  from  $2,138,000  to
$2,427,000  or by  13.5%,  during  the  nine  months  of  1997  compared  to the
respective  period of 1996.  This  increase  resulted  from an  increase in loan
portfolio due to the Carlyle branch acquisition combined with continued mortgage
and commercial loan growth.

Interest Expense - Interest expense  increased  $265,000 or 27.6%, to $1,224,000
for the nine  months  ended June 30, 1997 from  $959,000  for the same period in
1996.  The increase was  primarily  attributable  to the increase in the deposit
base associated with the Carlyle acquisition in September 1996.

Net  Interest  Income - Net  interest  income for the nine months ended June 30,
1997 was  $1,203,000  compared to $1,179,000  for the nine months ended June 30,
1996. The increase is attributable to an increased loan base associated with the
Carlyle branch acquisition on September 13, 1996.

Provision for Loan Losses - The allowance for loan losses is established through
a  provision  for loan  losses  based  on  management's  evaluation  of the risk
inherent  in its  loan  portfolio  and  the  general  economy.  Such  evaluation
considers  numerous  factors  including,   general  economic  conditions,   loan
portfolio  composition,  prior loss experience,  the estimated fair value of the
underlying  collateral  and other factors that warrant  recognition in providing
for an adequate loan loss allowance.  During the nine months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996, the provision for loan losses was $67,000 and $45,000, respectively.

Allowance  for Loan Losses - The  allowance for loan losses was $156,000 or .57%
of loans  receivable  at June 30, 1997,  compared to $117,000,  or .43% of loans
receivable at September 30, 1996. The level of  nonperforming  loans was 1.0% of
total loans at June 30, 1997 compared to .93% as of September 30, 1996. Based on
current  reserve  levels in relation to total loans  receivable  and  classified
assets and the diligent  effort put forth by management to address  problem loan
situations  in recent  years,  management  believes its  reserves are  currently
adequate.

Net  charge-offs  amounted  to $28,000  during  the first  nine  months of 1997,
compared to net charge-offs of $50,000 during the first nine months of 1996.

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses
charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when
management  believes that the  collectibility of the principal is unlikely.  The
allowance  is an amount  that  management  believes  will be  adequate to absorb
losses on existing loans that may become  uncollectible,  based on evaluation of
the collectibility of loans and prior loss experience. The evaluation also takes
into  consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan
portfolio,  overall  portfolio  quality,  review of specific  problem  loans and
current economic conditions that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay. While
management uses the best  information  available to make its evaluation,  future
adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are  significant  changes
in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of
their  examination  process,  periodically  review the Bank's allowance for loan
losses,  and may require the Bank to make  additions to the  allowance  based on
their  judgment  about  information  available  to  them at the  time  of  their
examinations.
<PAGE>


Loans are considered  impaired when, based on current information and events, it
is  probable  that the Bank will not be able to collect  all  amounts  due.  The
portion of the allowance for loan losses  applicable to impaired  loans has been
computed  based on the  present  value of the  estimated  future  cash  flows of
interest and principal  discounted at the loan's  effective  interest rate or on
the fair value of the  collateral  for collateral  dependent  loans.  The entire
change  in  present  value  of  expected  cash  flows  of  impaired  loans or of
collateral  value is  reported  as bad debt  expense in the same manner in which
impairment  initially was recognized or as a reduction in the amount of bad debt
expense that otherwise would be reported.  As of June 30, 1997 and September 30,
1996, management had not identified any loans as impaired.

The Bank's  effective  tax rate for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
was approximately 21.94% and 35.94%, respectively.

Nonperforming Assets

At June 30, 1997, the Bank had $273,000,  of nonperforming assets, .59% of total
assets.  On September 30, 1996, the Bank had $252,000 of  nonperforming  assets,
 .50% of total assets.

Impact on Inflation and Changing Prices

The  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  and related data  presented
herein have been  prepared in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles,  which require the measurement of financial  position and results of
operations in terms of historical  dollars  without  considering  changes in the
relative  purchasing power of money over time because of inflation.  Unlike most
industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of the Company
are  monetary in nature.  As a result,  interest  rates have a more  significant
impact on the  Company'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 prices of goods and services.
