Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(In Thousands, Except Per Share Data)
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 was traded on the NASDAQ Small Caps market under the symbol
"CSBF" until December 31, 1998, at which time the Company transferred the
quotation of its common stock to the OTC Bulletin Board under the same symbol.
The acquisition of the Bank by the Company was 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, 1998. 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 December 31, 1998 the results of operations and cash
flows for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997. All adjustments to
the financial statements were normal and recurring in nature.
Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
September 30, 1999.
Note 3. Comprehensive Income
Effective October 1, 1998, the Bank adopted FASB Statement No. 130, which was
issued in June 1997. Statement No. 130 establishes new rules for the reporting
and display of comprehensive income and its components, but has no effect on the
Bank's net income or total stockholders' equity. Statement No. 130 requires
unrealized gains and losses on the Bank's available-for-sale securities, which
prior to adoption were reported separately in stockholders' equity, to be
included in comprehensive income. Prior year financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the requirements of Statement No. 130.
Note 4. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed as net income available to common
stockholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding and
vested shares of the Management Recognition Plan.
Diluted EPS is computed as net income available to common stockholders divided
by the weighted average common shares outstanding, common stock equivalents, and
shares awarded under the Management Recognition Plan weighted to reflect the
portion of the period the shares were outstanding.

Note 5. Employee Stock Ownership Plan
In conjunction with the conversion, an ESOP was created and 82,800 shares of the
Company's stock were purchased for future allocation to employees. The purchase
was funded with a loan from the Company.
Shares are allocated to all eligible employees as the debt is repaid based on a
prorata share of total eligible compensation. Employees 21 or older with at
least 1,000 hours of service in a twelve month period are eligible to
participate. Benefits will vest over a five year period and in full after five
years of qualified service.
As shares are committed to be released from unallocated shares, the Bank
recognizes compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares,
and the shares become outstanding for purposes of calculating earnings per
share. The Bank recognized compensation expense for the ESOP of $8 and $10 for
the three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Dividends received, if any, by the ESOP on unallocated shares will be used for
debt service.
In July 1997, the Company repurchased 41,400 shares of common stock from the
ESOP. The ESOP used the proceeds received from the repurchase to reduce
outstanding debt to the Company. The balance in unearned ESOP shares was reduced
by the cost of the shares sold to the Company. As of December 31, 1998 and
September 30, 1998, the ESOP held 21,915 and 22,529, respectively, non-committed
shares with a fair value of $258 and $281, respectively.
<PAGE>
Note 6. 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
December 31, 1998, 61,750 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 December 31, 1998, no options had been
granted.
Note 7. 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 December 31, 1998, 18,009 shares have been awarded
and remain outstanding to officers, directors, and employees. MRP compensation
expense was $9 for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. 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 8. New Accounting Standards
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" (FAS 131), was issued in July 1997 by the
Financial Accounting Standards Board. The standard requires the Corporation to
disclose the factors used to identify reportable segments including the basis of
organization, differences in products and services, geographic areas, and
regulatory environments. FAS 131 additionally requires financial results to be
reported in the financial statements for each reportable segment. The Standard
is effective for financial statement years beginning after December 15, 1997.
The Company does not believe the adoption of the Standard will have a material
impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" (FAS 133) establishes accounting and reporting standards
for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes
in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative
and the resulting designation. This statement applies to all entities. FAS 133
is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15,
1999. Earlier application is encouraged. The statement is not to be applied
retroactively to financial statements of prior periods. The Company does not
believe the adoption of FAS 133 will have a material impact on the consolidated
financial statements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONs
(In thousands, except per share data)
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
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 December 31, 1998 and September 30, 1998,
cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively.
The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is due to the purchase of investment
securities and funding of loans, offset by an increase in deposit accounts.
<PAGE>
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 December 31,
1998, the Bank had no outstanding advances from the FHLB.
At December 31, 1998, the Bank had $3,485 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.
December 31, September 30, Minimum
1998 1998 Requirements
----------------------------------------
Total capital to risk weighted assets 45.9% 46.2% 8.0%
Tier I capital to risk weighted assets 45.0% 45.3% 4.0%
Tier I capital to average assets 20.1% 19.8% 4.0%
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $1,183 to $47,606 at December 31, 1998 from $46,423 at
September 30, 1998. The increase resulted from an increase of $431 in gross
loans and an increase in investments of $1,065 combined with a decrease of $452
in cash and cash equivalents.
Gross loans have increased $431 from $26,282 at September 30, 1998 to $26,713 at
December 31, 1998. While the loan portfolio remained consistent at December 31,
1998, 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 increased $1,065 since September 30, 1998. The portfolio consists
primarily of U.S. Government and agency securities. All securities are held as
available for sale.
Results of Operations
Three months ended December 31, 1998 compared to three months ended December 31,
1997
Net Income - The Company's net income for the three months ended December 31,
1998 was $48 compared to $97 for the three months ended December 31, 1997. The
decrease in net income resulted primarily from a decrease in the average balance
of interest earning assets due to the repurchase of treasury shares.
Interest Income - Interest income decreased for the three months ended December
31, 1998 by $48 to $804 from $852 for the three months ended December 31, 1997.
The decrease is due to a decline in the average balance of interest earning
assets due to the repurchase of treasury shares.
Interest Expense - Interest expense decreased for the three months ended
December 31, 1998 by $12 to $405 from $417 for the three months ended December
31, 1997. The deposit portfolio has remained relatively consistent. Management
continues to price deposit products based on competition.
Net Interest Income - Net interest income for the three months ended December
31, 1998 decreased by $36 to $399 from $435 for the three months ended December
31, 1997. The decrease is attributable to the decrease in the Company's interest
earning assets as a result of stock repurchases.
Noninterest expense increased for the three months ended December 31, 1998 by $1
to $345 from $344 for the three months ended December 31, 1997. Management
continues to focus efforts on controlling compensation costs.
<PAGE>
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 three months ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, the provision for loan losses was $18 and $15, respectively.
Allowance for Loan Losses - The allowance for loan losses was $177 or .66% of
loans receivable at December 31, 1998, compared to $171, or .65% of loans
receivable at September 30, 1998. The level of nonperforming loans was 1.54% of
total loans at December 31, 1998 compared to 1.56% as of September 30, 1998.
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 $13 during the first three months of fiscal year
1999, compared to net charge-offs of $7 during the first three months of fiscal
year 1998.
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.
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 December 31, 1998 and September
30, 1998, management had not identified any loans as impaired.
Nonperforming Assets
At December 31, 1998, the Bank had $430, of nonperforming assets, .90% of total
assets. On September 30, 1998, the Bank had $410 of
nonperforming assets, .88% 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.
