(Unaudited)
(1) Redwood Financial, Inc.
Redwood Financial, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of
the State of Minnesota for the purpose of becoming the savings and loan
holding company of HomeTown Bank (the "Bank", previously known as Redwood
Falls Federal Savings and Loan Association, the "Association") in
connection with the Association's conversion from a federally-chartered
mutual savings and loan association to a federally-chartered stock savings
and loan association, pursuant to its Plan of Conversion.
The Company commenced on May 22, 1995 a Subscription and Community Offering
of its shares (the Offering) in connection with the conversion of the
Association. The Offering was closed on June 22, 1995 and the conversion
was completed July 7, 1995 (see note 5).
(2) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared
in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not
include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of the
consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of earnings,
consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of
stockholders' equity, and consolidated statements of cash flows in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the
interim financial statements have been included. The statements of earnings
for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year.
The material contained herein is written with the presumption that the
users of the interim financial statements have read or have access to the
most recent Annual Report on Form 10- KSB of Redwood Financial, Inc., which
contains the latest audited financial statements and notes thereto,
together with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations as of June 30, 1998 and for the year then ended.

(5) Stockholders' Equity and Stock Conversion
The Association converted from a federally-chartered mutual savings and
loan association to a federally-chartered stock savings and loan
association pursuant to its plan of Conversion which was approved by the
Association's members on June 23, 1995. The conversion was effected on July
7, 1995, and resulted in the issuance of 1,125,000 shares of common stock
(par value $0.10) at $8.00 per share for a gross sales price of $9,000,000.
Costs related to conversion (primarily underwriters' commission, printing,
and professional fees) aggregated $450,639 and were deducted to arrive at
the net proceeds of $8,549,361. The Company established an employee stock
ownership trust which purchased 82,748 shares of common stock of the
Company at the issuance price of $8.00 per share from funds borrowed from
the holding company.

(6) Stock Repurchases
During the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company completed all
stock repurchase programs announced to date. As a result, the Company
purchased 11,291 shares of its outstanding common stock during the quarter.
For the nine months ended March 31, 1999, the Company purchased 214,100
shares, or 24.7% of its 868,093 outstanding shares of common stock at June
30, 1998. As a result of the stock repurchase programs, the Company has
outstanding 653,993 shares of common stock at March 31, 1999. The following
summarizes the Company's common stock repurchases during the quarter ended
March 31, 1999:
Settlement Date Shares Purchased Price per share
January 5, 1999 8,000 $15.75
January 7, 1999 3,291 $15.25
Average price per share $15.60
(7) New Accounting Standards
In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" (SFAS 133), which establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including
certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively
referred to as derivatives), and for hedging activities. SFAS 133 is
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15,
1999. Management is currently studying the impact of adopting SFAS 133.
(8) Business Segment Performance Disclosure
SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Operation and Related
Information, requires the disclosure of financial and descriptive
information about the operating segments of a public business enterprise.
For purposes of this disclosure, Redwood Financial, Inc. has deemed its
operating segments to follow its corporate structure. The rationale for
this segmentation is a result of the differing operational purposes of its
corporate entities.
To this extent, the Company has determined that it has three operating
segments. These include (1) the parent holding company, Redwood Financial,
Inc. (the Holding Company), (2) the insured financial institution, HomeTown
Bank (the Bank), and (3) a subsidiary of the Bank, Redwood Falls Service
Corporation (the Service Corporation).

<PAGE>
REDWOOD FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
The following is a brief description of the three operating segments:
Holding Company: Redwood Financial, Inc. is a Minnesota corporation
organized in 1995 at the direction of Redwood Falls Federal Savings and
Loan Association (now HomeTown Bank) in connection with the then
Association's conversion from mutual savings association to a stock savings
association. The Parent Company was organized primarily to acquire and hold
the common stock of the then Association. This continues to be the Parent
Company's primary purpose. The Parent Company also contributes to the
operational performance of the consolidated Company through (1) retention
and servicing of several loans which were not eligible for investment
within the Bank's operating segment due to regulatory restrictions, (2)
management of a small investment portfolio, including an investment in a
limited partnership, and (3) providing and incurring expense as a result of
employee benefits available to Bank personnel for the remuneration and
retention of Bank personnel.
The Bank: HomeTown Bank is a federal stock savings association organized in
1924. The Bank provides standard banking services to communities in Redwood
and Renville Counties, Minnesota including lending and deposit products
services. The Bank is the largest of the consolidated Company's operating
segments.
The Service Corporation: Redwood Falls Service Corporation is a Minnesota
corporation organized in 1993 for the sole purpose of providing insurance
sales separate from the Bank as a result of previous federal regulatory
requirements. These requirements have since been lifted. The Service
Corporation has been inactive since June 1996 and as a result has not been
included in any summarization of consolidated Company performance.
The following tables summarize the contribution of each segment to the
operating performance of the consolidated Company for the three and nine
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

REDWOOD FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Item 2-Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
The Company's net earnings are dependent primarily on its net interest income,
which is the difference between interest income earned on its investment and
loan portfolio and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest
income is determined by (1) the difference between yields earned on
interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities (interest
rate spread) and (2) the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. The Company's interest rate spread is affected by
regulatory, economic, and competitive factors that influence interest rates,
loan demand, and deposit flows. To a lesser extent, the Company's net earnings
also are affected by the level of noninterest income, which primarily consists
of service charges and other fees. In addition, net earnings are affected by the
level of noninterest (general and administrative) expenses.
The operations of financial institutions, including the Bank, are significantly
affected by prevailing economic conditions, competition, and the monetary and
fiscal policies of the federal government and governmental agencies. Lending
activities are influenced by the demand for and supply of housing, competition
among lenders, the level of interest rates, and the availability of funds.
Deposit flows and costs of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates of
interest, primarily on competing investments, account maturities, and the levels
of personal income and savings in the Bank's market area.
Financial Condition
The Company's total assets increased by $16,239,000, or 21.01%, from $77,287,000
at June 30, 1998 to $93,526,000 at March 31, 1999. The increase in the Company's
assets reflected an increase in the level of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)
advances and deposits during the nine months ended March 31, 1999. These
advances and deposits were used primarily to fund increased loan production and
purchases of mortgage-backed securities during this nine month period.
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $1,077,000, or 53.61%, from $2,009,000 at
June 30, 1998 to $3,086,000 at March 31, 1999. The increase in cash was a result
of the timing between when funds are received through loan and mortgage-backed
securities payments, deposits, and FHLB advances and when those funds are
reinvested in loans and mortgage-backed securities. The Company attempts to
maintain lower levels of cash and cash equivalents in order to enhance overall
yield.

<PAGE>
REDWOOD FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
The Company's loans receivable, net, increased $4,498,000, or 15.51% during the
nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increase in loans was a result of
increased loan demand in the Company's market and includes 1-4 family
residential mortgage loans and agricultural and commercial loans. The aggregate
growth in the Company's loan portfolio combined with the increase in
agricultural and commercial loans will increase the Company's credit risk
exposure.
The Company's investment securities, including mortgage-backed securities
designated available for sale increased 19.91% or $8,705,000 from $43,731,000 to
$52,436,000 during the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increase is
primarily due to the use of funds provided by FHLB advances and increased
deposits over the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increase was partially
offset be a decrease in the carrying value of the Company's investment
securities, including mortgage-backed securities designated available for sale.
The market value of the Company's investment securities, including
mortgage-backed securities available for sale reflected a $211,000 before tax
unrealized gain at June 30, 1998 and a $195,000 before tax unrealized loss at
March 31, 1999. The Company is no longer designating any investment securities,
including mortgage-backed securities, as held to maturity.
The Company's deposits increased by $3,468,000, or 7.21%, from $48,102,000 at
June 30, 1998 to $51,570,000 at March 31, 1999. At March 31, 1999, the Company's
FHLB advances totaled $29,699,000, an increase of $13,499,000, or 83.33% from
$16,200,000 at June 30, 1998. The advances were primarily utilized to fund
increased loan production and purchase investment securities, including
mortgage-backed securities. In order to fund loan growth and investment
purchases and to leverage its capital, the Company continues to seek additional
deposits through traditional deposit products and new deposit products, as well
as increase utilization of FHLB advances. To this extent, in December 1998, the
Company introduced checking to its product line. This product is intended to
reduce the Company's overall cost of funds as well as attract new customers.
Checking deposits totaled $809,000 at March 31, 1999.
Stockholders' equity declined by $2,949,000 or 24.70% from $11,938,000 at June
30, 1998 to $8,989,000 at March 31, 1999. The decrease is primarily due to the
Company's stock repurchase programs, described elsewhere in this 10-QSB. As a
result Treasury stock increased $2,976,000, or 102.35%, from $2,908,000 at June
30, 1998 to $5,885,000 at March 31, 1999. The use of interest earning funds to
repurchase stock will decrease interest income in future periods.

Results of Operations
Net Earnings
Net earnings were $16,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared
to $112,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. This represented a
decrease of $96,000, or 85.71%. The decrease in net earnings was primarily
attributable to a $116,000, or 40.42% increase in noninterest expense. The
increase in noninterest expense primarily includes increased compensation and
employee benefits as a result of increased staff, increased office occupancy
owing to the opening of a new bank facility, and other noninterest expense.
Other increases in various noninterest expense items are also noted and are
discussed in more detail in the Noninterest Expense section of this 10-QSB.
In addition, the decrease in net earnings was also due to decreased net interest
income during the quarter due to the placement of a $378,000 loan on nonaccrual,
and the resulting reversal of $36,000 in previously accrued interest. The
decrease in net income during the quarter was also affected by a $14,000, or
40.00% decrease in noninterest income. The decrease in net income was partially
offset by a $65,000, or 100.00% decrease in income tax expense.
Net earnings were $142,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999, as compared
to $317,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1998. This represented a
decrease of $175,000, or 55.21%. The decrease in net earnings was primarily
attributable to a $289,000, or 33.10% increase in noninterest expense owing
primarily to a $101,000, or 16.19% increase in compensation and employee
benefits. The increase in noninterest expense was also due to a $99,000 decrease
in the carrying value of a limited partnership, a $36,000, or 41.86% increase in
other expenses, and a $33,000, or 103.13% increase in occupancy expense. The
limited partnership invests in equity securities of financial institutions. The
value of the securities held by this limited partnership decreased as a result
of equity market depreciation in the nine months ended March 31, 1999. Other
increases in various noninterest expense items are also noted and are discussed
in more detail in the Noninterest Expense section of this 10-QSB.
In addition, the decrease in net income was also affected by a $21,000, or 1.61%
decrease in net interest income owing primarily to the reversal of accrued
interest on the aforementioned problem loan, and a $25,000, or 178.57% increase
in provision for loan losses. The decrease in net income was partially offset by
a $43,000, or 52.44% increase in noninterest income including gains on the sale
of securities of $38,000, and a $118,000, or 64.84% decrease in income tax
expense.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income decreased by $31,000, or 6.98%, from $444,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 to $413,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1999. The decrease in net interest income was primarily due to the placement of
a $378,000 agricultural loan on nonaccrual and the resulting reversal of $36,000
in previously accrued interest. In addition, the decrease in net interest income
was also a result of a decrease in the Company's net interest spread, from 1.74%
for the three months ended to March 31, 1998, to 1.45% for the three months
ended March 31, 1999.
Net interest income decreased by $21,000, or 1.61%, from $1,304,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1998 to $1,283,000 for the nine months ended March 31,
1999. The decrease is largely a result of the aforementioned placement of a
large balance loan on nonaccrual. The decrease was also affected by a decrease
in the Company's net interest spread, from 1.68% for the nine months ended to
March 31, 1998, to 1.49% for the nine months ended March 31, 1999.
Interest Income
Interest income was $1,461,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as
compared to $1,202,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998, representing
an increase of $259,000, or 21.55%. The increase in interest income was
primarily due to an increase in interest-earning assets as a result of the
Company's growth. Average interest-earning assets increased $20,969,000, or
31.88% from $65,784,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998, to
$86,753,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increase in interest
income was partially offset by a decrease in the overall yield on
interest-earning assets. For the three months ended March 31, 1999, the yield on
interest-earning assets was 6.74%, as compared to 7.31% for the three months
ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in yield on interest-earning assets was due
primarily to lower yields on the Company's loan and securities portfolios.
Interest income was $4,230,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999, as
compared to $3,515,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1998, representing an
increase of $715,000, or 20.34%. The increase in interest income was primarily
due to an increase in interest-earning assets as a result of the Company's
growth. Average interest-earning assets increased $17,305,000, or 27.04% from
$64,002,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1998, to $81,307,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increase in interest income was offset by
a decrease in the overall yield on interest-earning assets. For the nine months
ended March 31, 1999, the yield on interest-earning assets was 6.94%, as
compared to 7.32% for the nine months ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in
yield on interest-earning assets also was due primarily to lower yields on the
Company's loan and securities portfolios.

Interest on loans receivable increased by $105,000, or 19.77%, to $636,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to $531,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998. Such increase was due to a $8,469,000, or 34.11%
increase in the average balance of loans receivable from $24,830,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 to $33,299,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. The increase in interest on loans receivable was offset by a
decrease in the average yield on loans receivable from 8.55% for the three
months ended March 31, 1998, to 7.64% for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
The decrease in interest income on loans receivable during the quarter was
substantially affected by the placement of the aforementioned large balance loan
on nonaccrual and the resulting reversal of previously accrued interest.
Interest on loans receivable increased by $467,000, or 31.47%, to $1,951,000 for
the nine months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to $1,484,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1998. Such increase was due to a $9,177,000, or 39.89%
increase in the average balance of loans receivable from $23,006,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1998 to $32,183,000 for the nine months ended March
31, 1999. The increase in interest on loans receivable was offset by a decrease
in the average yield on loans receivable from 8.60% for the nine months ended
March 31, 1998, to 8.08% for the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The decrease
in interest income on loans receivable was substantially affected by the
placement of the aforementioned large balance loan on nonaccrual and the
resulting reversal of previously accrued interest.
Interest income on mortgage-backed and related securities available for sale was
$662,000 and $437,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The yield on the Company's mortgage-backed securities portfolio
available for sale was 6.29% and 6.66% for the three months ended March 31, 1999
and 1998, respectively. A decrease in the yield on the mortgage-backed
securities portfolio has occurred as a result of recent declines in mortgage
rates. In January 1998, the Company redesignated all mortgage-backed and related
securities as available for sale. As such, the Company reported no interest
income on mortgage-backed and related securities held to maturity for the three
or nine months ended March 31, 1999.
Interest income on mortgage-backed and related securities available for sale was
$1,829,000 and $772,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,

yield on the Company's investment securities portfolio available for sale was
6.08% and 6.48% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. A decrease in the yield on the investment securities portfolio has
occurred as a result of recent declines in interest rates. In January 1998, the
Company redesignated all investment securities as available for sale. As such,

Interest income on investment securities available for sale was $325,000 and
$438,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The
yield on the Company's investment securities portfolio available for sale was
5.94% and 6.82% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. A decrease in the yield on the investment securities portfolio has
occurred as a result of recent declines in interest rates.
Interest income on cash equivalents and other increased by $22,000, or 122.22%
in comparison of the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. Interest income
on cash equivalents and other increased by $70,000, or 129.63% in comparison of
the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. Cash equivalents and other
includes dividends on FHLB stock. The increase in both periods reflects an
increased investment in FHLB stock.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased by $289,000, or 38.08%, from $759,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 to $1,048,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1999. The increase in interest expense resulted from a $20,177,000, or 272.51%
increase in the average balance of FHLB advances from $7,404,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 to $27,581,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1999. The increase in interest expense was also impacted by a $4,660,000, or
9.90% increase in the average balance of deposits in comparison of the three
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. The increase in interest expense was
partially offset a decrease in the cost of funds from 5.57% to 5.29% for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively. As noted previously in
this 10-QSB, the Company recently began offering checking in order to lower its
cost of funds. The Company has made substantial progress in developing this
program, resulting in an average balance of $530,000 for the quarter ended March
31, 1999 at an average cost of 1.70%.

REDWOOD FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Interest expense increased by $737,000, or 33.35%, from $2,210,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1998 to $2,947,000 for the nine months ended March 31,
1999. The increase in interest expense resulted from a $16,656,000, or 260.62%
increase in the average balance of FHLB advances from $6,391,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1998 to $23,047,000 for the nine months ended March 31,
1999. The increase in interest expense was also impacted by a $3,213,000, or
7.01% increase in the average balance of deposits in comparison of the nine
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. The increase in interest expense was also
partially offset a decrease in the cost of funds from 5.64% to 5.45% for the
nine months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company's provision for loan losses was $15,000 and $14,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. For the nine months ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company's provision for loan losses were $39,000
and $14,000, respectively. As noted, the Company has experienced growth in its
loan portfolio. The provision was increased in response to loan growth, a change
in the composition of the loan portfolio through increased agricultural and
commercial loan originations, and inherent losses in the loan portfolio. As
such, the Company has provided for losses. The level of this provision is
dependent on loan growth, delinquencies, economic conditions, and other various
factors used by management in the assessment of its loan portfolio and overall
level of loan loss reserves.
At March 31, 1999 and June 30, 1998, the allowance for loan losses totaled
$290,000 and $251,000, respectively. The Company's net loan charge-offs were $0
and $0 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and twelve months ended June 30,
1998, respectively. At March 31, 1999 and June 30, 1998, the allowance for loan
losses represented 0.86% and 0.86% of loans receivable, respectively. Nonaccrual
loans totaled $378,000 and $0 at March 31, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively.
At March 31, 1999 and June 30, 1998, classified assets totaled $494,000 and
$37,000, respectively.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income decreased by $14,000, or 40.00% from $35,000 to $21,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to the three months ended
March 31, 1998. The decrease was due to a decrease in gains on the sale of
securities available for sale of $7,000, or 100.00% and a decrease in other
income of $3,000, or 50.00%.
Noninterest income increased by $43,000, or 52.44% from $82,000 to $125,000 for
the nine months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to the nine months ended March
31, 1998. The increase was due to an increase in fees and service charges of
$18,000, or 30.51% and an increase in gains on the sale of securities available
for sale of $23,000, or 153.33%.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased by $116,000, or 40.42%, from $287,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 to $403,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1999. Noninterest expense increased by $289,000, or 33.10%, from $873,000
for the nine months ended March 31, 1998 to $1,162,000 for the nine months ended
March 31, 1999.
As previously noted, these increases in noninterest expense are largely the
cause of overall decreased earnings by the Company. The increase in noninterest
expense is primarily due to (1) increased compensation and employee benefits as
a result of staff additions, (2) increased occupancy costs owing to the
Company's recent addition of a new bank building in Redwood Falls, Minnesota,
and (3) increased other expenses, many of which management believes are one time
expenses associated with the addition of the new bank building and
implementation of new deposit products, including checking and debit card
products. The increase in noninterest expense was also substantially affected by
a decrease in the carrying value of an investment in a limited partnership, most
notably in the six months ended December 31, 1998.
The increase in staff is primarily a result of the new bank building opened in
Redwood Falls in January 1999. Prior to the start of this quarter, the Company
employed 16 full time and 3 part time employees. Comparatively, on January 1,
1998, the Company employed 10 full time and 3 part time employees. The increase
in staff was required to staff the new bank facility and to assist in developing
and maintaining new deposit and loan products. As a result, compensation and
employee benefits increased $40,000, or 18.69% in comparison of the three months
ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. In comparison of the nine months ended March 31,
1999 and 1998, compensation and employee benefits increased $101,000, or 16.19%.
The increase in occupancy costs is also primarily a result of the new bank
building opened in Redwood Falls in January 1999. As detailed in previous
10-QSB's and press releases, the Company expected the new building to have a
substantial increase in occupancy expenses. As a result, occupancy costs
increased $23,000, or 164.29% in comparison of the three months ended March 31,
1999 and 1998. In comparison of the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,
occupancy costs increased $33,000, or 103.13%.

REDWOOD FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
The increase in other noninterest expenses is due to the new bank building
opened in Redwood Falls in January 1999, new deposit products introduced by the
Company over the previous four months and Year 2000 related expenses, included
in the Company's Year 2000 budget as detailed elsewhere in this 10-QSB. The Bank
began offering checking in December 1998 and debit cards, including an ATM
machine in March 1999. These programs required substantive initial outlays which
are not considered repetitive. The new bank building required provisions of
substantial supplies and other outfittings not directly related to the physical
building. Year 2000 compliancy costs totaled approximately $4,000 this quarter.
As a result, other noninterest expense increased $27,000, or 122.73% in
comparison of the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. In comparison of
the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, other noninterest expense
increased $36,000, or 41.86%. Although many of the aforementioned costs are not
repetitive, the increasing complexity and size of the Company's operations will
result in higher other expenses than has been recorded in previous periods.
During the three and nine months ended March 31, 1999, the Company wrote down
the carrying value of its investment in a limited partnership by $13,000 and
$99,000, respectively. The limited partnership invests in equity securities of
financial institutions. The carrying value of the limited partnership decreased
as a result of market depreciation.
The increase in noninterest expense was also affected by increases in
advertising expense and data processing expense. For the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1999, advertising expense increased $10,000, or 142.86%, and
$12,000, or 57.14%. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 1999, data
processing costs increased $1,000, or 25.00%, and $7,000, or 58.33%. Both
increases are a result of the new bank building and additional deposit products.
The Bank converted to an automated data processing system in October 1997 which
overstates the percentage increase in comparison of the nine months ended March
31, 1999 and 1998.
Income Taxes
The Company's income taxes decreased by $65,000, or 100.00%, from $65,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 1998, to less than $1,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. The change in income taxes was due primarily to a decrease
in pre-tax earnings of $161,000, or 90.96% from $177,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 to $16,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The
Company's effective tax rate was 0.93% and 36.85% for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The Company maintains a balance of tax
exempt investments which decreases its effective tax rate.

REDWOOD FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
The Company's income taxes decreased by $118,000, or 64.84%, from $182,000 for
the nine months ended March 31, 1998, to $64,000 for the nine months ended March
31, 1999. The change in income taxes was due primarily to a decrease in pre-tax
earnings of $293,000, or 58.72% from $499,000 for the nine months ended March
31, 1998 to $206,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The Company's
effective tax rate was 31.10% and 36.49% for the nine months ended March 31,
1999 and 1998, respectively.
Forward Looking Information
In recent years, significant new federal legislation has imposed numerous new
legal and regulatory requirements on financial institutions. In addition to the
uncertainties posed by possible legislative change, there are many other
uncertainties that may make the Company's historical performance an unreliable
indicator of its future performance, and forward-looking information, including
projections of future performance, is subject to numerous possible adverse
developments, including but not limited to the possibility of adverse economic
developments which may increase default and delinquency risks in the Company's
loan portfolios; shifts in interest rates which may result in shrinking interest
margins; deposits outflows; interest rates on competing investments; demand for
financial services and loan products; increases generally in competitive
pressure in the banking and financial services industry; changes in accounting
policies or guidelines, or monetary and fiscal policies of the federal
government; changes in the quality or composition of the Company's loan and
investment portfolios; potential operational disruptions due to Year 2000
considerations; or other significant uncertainties.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, FHLB advances and proceeds
from maturing investment securities and principal and interest payments on loans
and mortgage-backed and related securities. While maturities and scheduled
amortization of mortgage-backed and related securities and loans are a
predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are
generally influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions,
competition, and other factors. A substantial portion of the Company's deposits
are funds from local government entities. At March 31, 1999, these deposits
totaled $17,108,000. Government deposits are typically in larger amounts than
traditional retail deposits and are bid more frequently and at higher interest
rates than retail deposits. The Company has utilized government deposits for
several years and has procedures for addressing these operational and liquidity
concerns.

REDWOOD FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
The primary investing activities of the Company are the origination of loans and
the purchase of investment and mortgage-backed and related securities. During
the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company's loan portfolio,
net, increased $4,533,000 and $6,133,000, respectively. During the same periods,
the Company purchased investment and mortgage-backed and related securities in
the amounts of $22,956,000 and $9,919,000, respectively. The primary financing
activity of the Company is the attraction of savings deposits and utilization of
FHLB advances.
The Company has other sources of liquidity if there is a need for funds. The
Bank has the ability to obtain additional advances from the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Des Moines. During the nine months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the
Bank utilized advances of $27,200,000 and $12,200,000, respectively. In
addition, the Company's designation of all investments and mortgage-backed
securities as available for sale is intended to increase liquidity and overall
operational flexibility.
The Bank is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by
OTS regulations. This requirement, which may be changed at the direction of the
OTS depending upon economic conditions and deposit flows, is based upon a
percentage of deposits and short-term borrowings.
The required minimum ratio is currently 4.0%.
The Company's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. In addition, the
Company maintains a portfolio of readily marketable investment securities,
including mortgage-backed and related securities which are designated available
for sale. The levels of cash and investment securities, including
mortgage-backed and related securities, are dependent on the Company's
operating, financing, and investing activities during any given period. At March
31, 1999 and June 30, 1998, cash and cash equivalents totaled $3,086,000 and
$2,009,000, respectively. Investment securities, including mortgage-backed and
related securities designated available for sale totaled $52,436,000 and
$43,731,000 at March 31, 1999 and June 30, 1998, respectively.
Since the conversion of the Association and the formation of the Company in
1995, the Company has regularly repurchased shares of its common stock through
open market transactions in publically announced repurchase programs. These
repurchase programs are intended to promote higher earnings per share and return
on equity in future periods by reducing the level of capital. These repurchases
have been completed with liquid resources, sales and maturities of investment
securities available for sale, loan repayments, increases in deposits, and
advances procured from the FHLB. Management believes the Company is adequately
capitalized. As such, the Company believes that these repurchases have not in
the past, nor should not in the future present substantial liquidity or capital
concerns based upon current and anticipated economic considerations. Previous
common stock repurchase programs should not be construed as indicative of future
repurchase programs by the Company. The Company has no outstanding stock
repurchase programs currently.

REDWOOD FINANCIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Federal savings institutions are required to satisfy three capital requirements:
(i) a requirement that "tangible capital" equal or excess 1.5% of tangible
assets, (ii) a requirement that "core capital" equal or excess 3.0% of adjusted
tangible assets, and (iii) a risk-based capital requirement currently 8.0% of
"risk-adjusted" assets. The Bank currently meets all three capital requirements.
Year 2000 Consideration
The Company's primary exposure is its automated data processing system which had
been determined to be Year 2000 noncompliant. On August 4, 1998, the Company
received its Year 2000 compliant release from its software vendor. Management
has tested the release through both internal and external resources to ensure
that the software properly addresses risks identified by the Federal Financial
Institutions Examination Council and its data processing vendor. The Company has
substantially completed its testing, although the Company expects to continue
testing other related applications during 1999.
The Company anticipates its exposure to Year 2000 issues is reduced due to its
1-4 family residential lending emphasis. However, the Company is broadening its
lending activities to include commercial lending. As part of its credit
underwriting, the Company is assessing the Year 2000 sensitivity of all
commercial loan applicants.
At this time, the Company expects to expend approximately $10,000 to $15,000 on
its Year 2000 compliance efforts. In addition, a substantial amount of current
staff time is being expended on Year 2000 assessment and testing. Should the
Company fail to correct its Year 2000 deficiencies by December 31, 1999, the
Company could expect a substantial disruption to daily operations. Such
disruption could have a material effect on the Company's financial position and
future earnings. To this extent, the Company's contingency plan is to
re-commence manual data processing operations. As the Company only recently
converted from manual to automated data processing in October 1997, the Company
still retains the equipment and trained staff necessary to re-commence manual
data processing operations.
As part of its contingency planning, the Company has decided to increase its
liquidity levels in late 1999 in order to ensure sufficient cash and other
liquidity to offset a possible deposit outflow. Specifically, the Company
intends to limit investment securities purchases during the last four months of
calendar 1999 in order to increase cash reserves and cash resources to a range
of $5.0 to $10.0 million. In addition, the Bank has the additional ability to
obtain further advances from the FHLB. The Bank currently maintains a $1.0
million line of credit with the FHLB. Sales of loans and/or investment
securities are also under consideration as a method for increasing liquidity.
The implementation of these contingency plans will result in a decrease in
overall profitability during this period and possibly subsequent periods.
