FIRST SAVINGS BANK OF WASHINGTON BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
SELECTED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1996


Note 1:    Basis of Presentation

      The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein reflect
all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present
a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.  All such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The balance sheet data at March
31, 1996, is derived from audited financial statements of  First Savings Bank
of Washington Bancorp, Inc. (The Company).  Certain information and note
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally  accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  It is
suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1996 (File No.
0-26584) of the Company.  Certain amounts in the prior period's financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period's
presentation. 

Effective April 1, 1996 the Bank adopted SFAS No. 122, Accounting for Mortgage
Servicing Rights, which amended  SFAS No. 65.  SFAS No. 122 requires the Bank
to allocate the total cost of all mortgage loans sold, whether originated or
purchased, to mortgage servicing rights and the loans (without the mortgage
servicing rights ) based on their relative fair values if it is practicable to
estimate those fair values.  If such allocation is not deemed practicable, the
entire cost of acquiring the loans should be allocated to the loans with no
cost allocated to mortgage servicing rights.  SFAS No. 122 is to be applied
prospectively.  The adoption of this statement is not expected to materially
impact the Bank s results of operation or financial condition.

Note 2:    Earnings Per Share

      Earnings per share information is not meaningful for any periods prior
to December 31,1995, inclusive, since the Company s stock was  issued on
October 31, 1995.  Earnings per share are not presented for periods prior to
conversion to stock form, as First Savings Bank of Washington (the Bank ) was
a wholly-owned subsidiary of a mutual holding company.

Note 4:   Subsequent Events

The company completed the acquisition of Inland Empire Bank (IEB) of Hermiston
Oregon effective August 1, 1996.  The Company paid the former shareholders of
IEB $60.8951 per share, in cash, for a total acquisition price of $32.5
million plus costs.  IEB had total assets of $158.7 million and total equity
of $18.4 million at December 31, 1995.

At the Company's annual stockholders meeting held on July 26, 1996  the
shareholders approved adoption of the Management Recognition Plan (MRP) and
Stock Option Plan (SOP).  Under the MRP the Company is authorized to grant up
to 436,425 shares of restricted stock to  directors, officers and employees of
the Bank.  The initial grant of approximately 404,000 shares will vest ratably
over a minimum five year period starting from the July 26, 1996 MRP approval
date.  Approval of the SOP authorizes the Company to reserve an aggregate of
1,091,063 shares for issuance pursuant to the exercise of stock options which
may be granted to employees and directors.  The exercise price of the option
is set at 100 to 110% of the fair market value of the stock price at date of
grant.  The initial grant of approximately  854,000 options will vest over a
five year period following the date of grant and any unexercised options will
expire after ten years.

ITEM 2  -  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

General

First Savings Bank of Washington Bancorp, Inc. (the Company), a Delaware
corporation, is primarily engaged in the business of planning, directing and
coordinating the business activities of First Savings Bank of Washington (the
Bank).   The Bank is a Washington-chartered savings bank the deposits of which
are insured by the FDIC under the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF). 
The Bank conducts business from its main office in  Walla Walla , Washington
and its 15 branch offices and three loan production offices located in
southeast, central, north central and western Washington.

The operating results of the Company depend primarily on its net
interest income, which is the difference between interest income on
interest-earning assets, consisting of loans and investment securities, and
interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, composed primarily of
savings deposits and FHLB advances.  Net interest income is primarily a
function of the Company s interest rate spread, which is the difference
between the yield earned on interest-earning assets and the rate paid on
interest-bearing liabilities, as well as a function of the average balance of
interest earning assets as compared to the average balance of interest-bearing
liabilities.  As more fully explained below, the Company's net interest income
significantly increased for both the most recent quarter and the comparable
period for the prior year.  This increase in net interest income was largely
due to the substantial growth in average asset and liability balances. 
The Company s net income also is affected by provisions for loan losses and
the level of its other income, including deposit service charges, loan
origination and servicing fees, and gains and losses on the sale of
loans and securities, as well as its non-interest operating expenses and
income tax provisions.  As further explained below, net income also increased
reflecting the rise in net interest income which was somewhat offset by a
slight decline in other operating income and by  increases in operating
expenses and provision for income taxes.  Provision for income taxes rose due
to increases in taxable income and effective tax rates.
      

Management's discussion and analysis of results of operations is intended to
assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of
the Company.  The information contained in this section should be read in
conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying
Selected Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Significant Events

The Company instituted a stock repurchase program during the quarter ended
June 30, 1996 authorizing the repurchase of approximately 546,000 shares of
its outstanding common stock.  At June 30, 1996 the Company had repurchased
436,425 shares at an average price of $14.74 per share.

Recent Developments
      
The Company completed the acquisition of Inland Empire Bank(IEB) of Hermiston
Oregon effective August 1, 1996.  The shareholders of IEB  received  $60.8951
per share, in cash, for a total acquisition price of $32.5 million plus costs. 
IEB has 5 full service branches plus a remote drive up facility located in
northeast Oregon. At December 31, 1995 IEB had total assets of $158.7 million,
which included net loans of $182.9 million, deposits of $159.0 million and
total shareholder s equity of $18.4 million.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30 and March 31, 1996

  Total assets increased $21.5 million, or 2.9%, from $743.2 million at March
31, 1996 to $764.7 million at June 30, 1996.  The majority of the growth was
in net loans receivable and was funded primarily with advances from the
Federal Home Loan Bank ( FHLB).  This growth in assets through the use of 
FHLB advances was in line with management s plans to leverage the Company's
strong capital position.  

                                         8

Loans  receivable grew $29.0 million, or 7.00%, from $415.3 million at March
31,1996 to $444.3 million at June 30, 1996.  The increase in loans was funded
primarily by a net increase of $30.1 million, or 15.1%, in FHLB advances and
other borrowings from $199.1 million at March 31, 1996 to $229.2 million on
June 30, 1996.

Securities available for sale and held to maturity decreased $8.2 million to
$285.6 million at June 30, 1996 from $293.7 million at March 31.1996.  The net
proceeds from principal repayments and maturities on securities was used
primarily  to repurchase $6.4 million of the Company s common stock.  Federal
Home Loan Bank Stock increased $1.3 million as the company was required to
purchase more stock as a result of its increased use of FHLB advances. 
Changes in the other remaining June 1996 balance sheet areas as compared to
March 1996 were not significant.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Quarters Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995

General.  Net income increased $1.3 million, or 122.6%, from $1.1 million for
the quarter ended June 30, 1995, to $2.4 million for the quarter ended June
30, 1996.  The year to year operating results were primarily affected by a
significant increase in net interest income offset slightly by a decrease in
gains from the sale of loans.  Net interest income increased $2.1 million from
$3.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 to $5.7 million for the
quarter ended  June 30,  1996, due, in large part, to a $100.0 million
increase in the Company's average balance of net interest-earning assets. 
Other operating income declined slightly while other operating expencses
increased a modest amount.  The Company's return on average equity decreased
from 8.42% for the quarter ended June 30, 1995, to 6.34% for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996, which was expected due to the large increase in equity from the
October 31, 1995 stock offering.

Interest Income.  Interest income for the quarter ended June 30 1996, was
$13.8 million compared to $9.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1995, an
increase of $4.6 million, or 50.3%.  The increase in interest income was a
result of a $251.1 million growth in average balances of interest earning
assets which was moderated by a 13 basis point decrease in the average yield
on those assets from 7.71% in the quarter ended June 30, 1995 to 7.58%  in
1996.  Average loans receivable increased by $126.8 million, or 41.5%, in
1996.  Interest income on loans increased by $2.7 million or 42.3%, reflecting
the impact of the increase in average loan balances and a slight decrease in
the yield on those balances.   Loans yielded 8.29% for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996, compared to 8.27% for the quarter ended June 30, 1995.  

The average balance of mortgage-backed securities, investment securities,
daily interest-bearing deposits and FHLB stock increased by $124.3 million in
the quarter ended June 30, 1996, and interest income from those investments
rose by $2.0 million for the June 1996 quarter compared to 1995.  The average
yield on mortgage-backed securities rose  from 6.76% in June 1995 to 6.89% in
1996.  The average yield on other investment securities, on the other hand,
declined from 6.71% in June 1995 to 5.85% in 1996, which reflects the
temporary investment of a portion of the conversion proceeds in lower yielding
short term investments as well as generally lower prevailing market rates. 
Earnings on FHLB stock increased by $132,000 reflecting an increase of $5.9
million in the average balance of FHLB stock for the quarter ended June 1996
and a 185 basis point increase in the average yield on that stock.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, was
$7.6 million compared to $5.6 million for the comparable period in 1995, an
increase of $2.0 million, or 35.9%.  The increase in interest expense was due
to the $151.1 million growth in average interest-bearing liabilities. The
increase in average interest-bearing liabilities in the quarter ended June
1996 was largely due to a $127.3 million increase in the average balance of
FHLB advances.  Average FHLB advances totaled $190.8 million during the
quarter ended June 30, 1996, as compared to $63.5 million during the quarter
ended June 30, 1995, resulting in a $1.5 million increase in related interest
expense.  The average rate paid on those advances decreased from 6.2% for the
quarter ended June 1995 to 5.56% for the comparable period in 1996..  Average
deposit balances increased from $360.4 million for the quarter ended June
1995, to $372.2 million for the comparable period in 1996 while at the same
time, the average rate paid on deposit balances stayed at 4.99% for both 
periods resulting in a moderate increase in deposit interest expense.  Other
borrowings consists of retail repurchase agreements with customers, and
reverse repurchase agreements with investment banking firms secured by certain
investment securities.  The average balance for other borrowings, including
other repurchase agreements, increased $12.1 million from  $7.2 million for
the quarter ended June 30, 1995,  to $19.3 million for the same period in
1996, and the related expense increased $187,000, from $109,000 to $296,000
for the respective periods.

 Provision  for Loan Losses.  During the quarter ended June 30, 1996, the
Bank's provision for loan losses was $513,000, compared to $37,000 for the
quarter ended June 30, 1995, an increase of $476,000.  The increase in the
provision for estimated loan losses is primarily attributable to the overall
increase in net loans receivable of $29.0 million for the Quarter ended June
30, 1996 versus $3.6 million for the comparable period in 1995.  The allowance
for loan losses, net of charge-offs, increased by $383,000 to $4.4 million at
June 30, 1996 compared to $4.1 million at March 31, 1996.  The allowance for
losses on loans is maintained at a level sufficient to provide for estimated
losses based on evaluating known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio and
upon management s continuing analysis of the factors underlying the quality of
the loan portfolio.  These factors include changes in the size and composition
of the loan portfolio, actual loan loss experience, current and anticipated
economic conditions, detailed analysis of individual loans for which full
collectibility may not be assured, and determination of the existence and
realizable value of the collateral and guarantees securing the loans.
Additions to these allowances are charged to earnings.  Provisions for losses
that are related to specific assets are usually applied as a reduction of the
carrying value of the assets and charged immediately against the income of the
period.  The reserve is based upon factors and trends identified by management
at the time financial statements are prepared.  In addition, various
regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process,
periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses.  Such agencies may
require the Bank to provide additions to the allowance based upon judgements
different from management.  Although management uses the best information
available, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary due to
economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions beyond the Bank's
control.

Other Operating Income.  Other operating income decreased from $542,000 for
the quarter ended June 30, 1995 to $455,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1996.  The decrease was primarily due to a $118,000 reduction in net gains
from sale of loans  which is a result of the reduction in loan sales as
management is currently retaining loan production for asset growth. 

Other Operating Expenses.  Other operating expenses increased $219,000 from
$2.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1995, to $2.9 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 1996. The increase in non-interest operating expense
for the quarter ended June 1996,  reflects increases resulting from growth of
the Bank, including increased personnel costs and increases in legal,
accounting and insurance expenses relating to operating as a public company. 
These increases were somewhat offset by a $163,000 increase in capitalized
loan origination costs reflecting a $29.3 million increase in loan
origination volume compared to the same quarter in 1995.

Income  Taxes.  Income tax expense was $884,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1996, compared to $369,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1995.  The increased
provision for income taxes reflects the greater level of taxable income and
a slight increase in the Company s effective tax rate.  This increase in
effective tax rate reflects the Bank s reduction in the relationship of
tax-exempt interest to taxable income.   The Company's effective tax rates for
the quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 was 26.98% and 25.55%, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, proceeds from loan
principal and interest payments and sales of loans, the maturity of and
interest income on mortgage-backed and investment securities, and FHLB
advances.  While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and
mortgage-backed securities are a predictable source of funds, deposit
flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest
rates, economic conditions and competition.

The primary investing activity of the Company is the origination and purchase
of mortgage loans through the Bank.  During the quarter ended June 30, 1996,
the Bank closed or purchased loans in the amounts of $74.7 million. This
growth was funded primarily by principal repayments on loans and securities,
sales of loans, increases in FHLB advances, and deposit growth.   For the
quarter ended June 30, 1996, principal repayments on loans totaled $38.4
million and the Bank sold $5.7 million of mortgage loans.  FHLB advances
increased $31.1 million, for the same quarter and net deposit growth
was $1.3 million.

The Bank must maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the
availability of sufficient funds to support loan growth and deposit
withdrawals, to satisfy financial commitments and to take advantage of
investment opportunities.  During fiscal years 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Bank
used its sources of funds primarily to fund loan commitments, to purchase
securities, and to pay maturing savings certificates and deposit withdrawals. 
At June 30, 1996, the Bank had undisbursed loans in process totaling $46.9
million.  The Bank generally maintains sufficient cash and readily marketable
securities to meet short term liquidity needs.  In addition, the Bank
maintains a credit facility with the FHLB of Seattle, which provides for
advances which in aggregate may equal up to 40% of total Bank assets, which as
of June 30, 1996, could give a total credit line of $287.8 million.  Advances
under this credit facility totaled $210.5 million, or 29.3% of total Bank
assets at June 30, 1996.

At June 30, 1996, savings certificates amounted to $274.5 million, or 73.1%,
of the Bank's total deposits, including $180.4 million which were scheduled to
mature within one year.  Historically, the Bank has been able to retain a
significant amount of its deposits as they mature.  Management of the Bank
believes it has adequate resources to fund all loan commitments by using
savings deposits,  FHLB of Seattle advances and the sale of mortgage loans and
that it can adjust the offering rates of savings certificates to retain
deposits in changing interest rate environments.

Capital Requirements

Federally-insured state-chartered banks are required to maintain minimum
levels of regulatory capital.  Under current FDIC regulations, insured
state-chartered banks generally must maintain (i) a ratio of Tier 1 leverage
capital to total assets of at least 3.0% (4.0% to 5.0% for all but the most
highly rated banks), (ii) a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets
of at least 4.0% and (iii) a ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets of
at least 8.0%.  At June 30, 1996, the Bank was in compliance with all
applicable capital requirements.  
  
The following table reflects  the Bank's applicable regulatory requirements
and the actual levels of regulatory capital at June 30, 1996.

The Company, as a bank holding company is regulated by the Federal Reserve
Board (FRB).  The FRB has established capital requirements that generally
parallel the capital requirements of the FDIC for the Bank that are applied to
bank holdingcompanys with $150 million or more in total consolidated assets. 
The Company's total regulatory capital must equal 8% of risk-weighted assets
and one half of the 8% (4%) must consist of Tier 1 (core) capital.
