Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share," which was adopted
by the Company as of December  31,  1997.  EPS for all prior  periods  have been

held by the Company's  Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") that are committed
for release,  shares  awarded but not released  under the  Company's  Management
Recognition and Development  Plan ("MRDP"),  and stock options granted under the
Stock Option

8. BRANCH ACQUISITION

On March 5, 1997, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to purchase 25
branches from Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. The transaction closed as scheduled on July
18, 1997.  The  transaction  was  accounted  for as a purchase  under  generally
accepted   accounting   principles.   The  purchase   included   assumption   of
approximately  $241.3  million in deposit  liabilities  and  purchase  of branch
facilities and other assets of  approximately  $6.3 million.  As a result of the
transaction, the Company recorded $13.4 million in core deposit intangible which
is being  amortized over 8.1 years.  The acquired  branches are located in rural
Oregon  communities,  extending  the  Association's  market to 33  offices in 22
counties throughout the state.

9. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1997, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS No. 130 establishes requirements for
disclosure of  comprehensive  income and becomes  effective for years  beginning
after December 15, 1997.  Reclassification  of earlier financial  statements for
comparative  purposes is required.  In June 1997,  the FASB also issued SFAS No.
131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS
No.131 redefines how operating  segments are determined and requires  disclosure
of certain financial and descriptive  information about the Company's  operating
segments.  This  statement  supercedes  SFAS No. 14,  "Financial  Reporting  for
Segments of Business  Enterprises." The new standard becomes effective for years
beginning  after  December 15, 1997, and requires that  comparative  information
from  earlier  periods  be  restated  to  conform  to the  requirements  of this
standard. The adoption of these statements is not expected to be material to the
Company.

General

The Company, an Oregon corporation,  became the unitary savings and loan holding
company for the Association upon the  Association's  conversion from a federally
chartered  mutual to a federally  chartered  stock savings and loan  association
("Conversion")  on October 4, 1995.  At June 30,  1998,  the  Company  had total
consolidated assets of $1,008.7 million and consolidated shareholders' equity of
$141.0  million.  The Company is currently not engaged in any business  activity
other than holding the stock of the  Association  and  investing  excess cash in
investment  securities.  Accordingly,  the information set forth in this report,
including  financial  statements  and related  data,  relates  primarily  to the
Association.

As a traditional, community-oriented,  savings and loan, the Association focuses
on customer service within its principal market area. The Association's  primary
market  activity is attracting  deposits from the general public and using those
and other available sources of funds to originate permanent  residential one- to
four-family  real estate loans  within its market area and, to a lesser  extent,
loans on commercial property and multi-family  dwellings. To supplement internal
growth  generated  through its branch network,  the  Association  also purchases
Oregon-based  commercial  real estate and  multi-family  residential  loans from
other Oregon financial institutions, as well as using mortgage brokers to locate
mortgage loans that meet our existing conservative underwriting standards within
and outside of the current branch market areas.

Net  interest  income,  which is the  difference  between  interest and dividend
income on interest-earning  assets,  primarily loans and investment  securities,
and interest expense on interest-bearing  deposits and borrowings,  is the major
source of profit for the Company.  Because the Company depends  primarily on net
interest  income for its earnings,  the focus of the Company's  management is to
create and  implement  strategies  that will provide  stable,  positive  spreads
between the yield on  interest-earning  assets and the cost of  interest-bearing
liabilities. Such strategies include a variable rate home equity lending program
that has an interest rate tied to the Wall Street Journal  published  prime rate
with an  additional  margin  of 2.0%  and  expansion  of non-  interest  bearing
checking accounts through the branch acquisition and new deposit products.  To a
lesser  degree,  the  net  earnings  of the  Company  rely on the  level  of its
non-interest income. The Company is aggressively  pursuing strategies to improve
its service charge and fee income, and control its non-interest  expense,  which
includes employee  compensation and benefits,  occupancy and equipment  expense,
deposit insurance premiums, core deposit premium amortization, and miscellaneous
other expenses, as well as federal and state income tax expense. The Wells Fargo
branch  acquisition  continues to  contribute  to  improvement  of the Company's
non-interest  income by  providing a larger  customer  base to generate  service
charge and fee income.

The Association is regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") and its
deposits  are insured up to  applicable  limits  under the  Savings  Association
Insurance Fund ("SAIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC").

The Association is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle, conducting
its  business  through  thirty-three  office  facilities,  with the main  office
located in Klamath Falls,  Oregon.  The primary market areas of the  Association
are the state of Oregon and adjoining areas of California and Washington.

Year 2000 Readiness

As with other  organizations,  the data processing  programs used by the Company
were originally  designed to recognize  calendar years by their last two digits.
Calculations  performed using these truncated  fields may not work properly with
dates beyond 1999. Correct  processing of date oriented  information is critical
to the operation of all financial institutions. Failure of these processes could
severely hinder the ability to continue operations and provide customer service.
Because of the critical nature of the issue, the Company established a committee
early in 1997 to address "Year 2000" issues. The committee has chosen to use the
Office  of  Thrift  Supervision  Year  2000  Checklist  as a guide for Year 2000
preparation.  The  committee  is  also  using  a Year  2000  Testing  Guide  and
Contingency Guide provided by Sheshunoff Information Systems, Inc. to complement
the OTS checklist. Additionally, the Association recently hired a full time Year
2000 coordinator to further implement our Year 2000 plan on a timely basis. Data
processing for the Company is provided by a third party service bureau. Software
purchased  from a service  bureau  affiliate  is used for  applications  such as
accounts payable, investment portfolio accounting, and fixed assets. The service
bureau has stated that all their processing, including application software used
for fixed assets, accounts payable, and investment portfolio accounting, is Year
2000 ready as of June 30, 1998. The Company will commence testing  procedures of
service bureau applications in December 1998.

Critical  data  processing  applications,  in addition to those  provided by the
service  bureau,  have  been  identified.  These  include  applications  such as
electronic  processing  through the  Federal  Reserve  Bank and ATM  processing.
Testing  procedures for these  applications  are in the process of  development.
Contingency  plans are also being developed by each department.  The contingency
plans address actions to be taken to continue  operations in the event of system
failure  due to areas  that  cannot  be  tested  in  advance,  such as power and
telephone service, which are vital to business continuation.

All personal computers ("PCs") and related software  throughout the Company have
been inventoried and tested for Year 2000  capability.  The company is using two
testing methods for PC certification of Year 2000  compatibility.  PCs must pass
both tests to be considered  ready for Year 2000. As of June 30, 1998,  over 90%
of the Company's PCs and software are Year 2000 compatible. Those PCs identified
as non-Year  2000  compatible  will be replaced by the end of 1998.  The Company
believes that the Year 2000 issue will not pose significant operational problems
and is not  anticipated  to be material to its financial  position or results of
operations in any given year. As of June 30, 1998,  the Company  estimates  that
total Year 2000  implementation  costs will not exceed $200,000 and are expected
to be expensed over the next 18 months,  impacting fiscal years ending September
1998,  1999, and 2000.  This estimate is based on information  available at June
30, 1998, and may be revised as additional  information  and actual costs become
available.

Branch Acquisition

The  Association   completed  the  purchase  of  25  branches  in  rural  Oregon
communities  from Wells  Fargo  Bank,  N.A. on July 18,  1997.  The  transaction
included  purchase of  approximately  $241.3 million in deposits and purchase of
branch facilities including  buildings,  improvements and furniture and fixtures
with a book value of $2.0 million.  This acquisition  expanded the Association's
market area to include 32 branches and one loan center in 22 Oregon counties. In
twelve  of the  locations,  the  newly  acquired  branch  is the only  financial
institution  in the community.  The acquired  offices are located in communities
which are compatible with, and complement, the Association's current markets and
philosophy.  While no loans were  acquired in the  transaction,  the addition of
these  branches  creates  new markets for the  Association's  lending  products,
including the expanded consumer and commercial product  offerings.  Based on the
latest branch profitability analysis, all the branches are now profitable.

The purchase of deposit  liabilities  increased  total  Association  deposits by
approximately  $241.3 million and increased the number of deposit  accounts from
40,000  to  82,000.  Approximately  23,000  of the  purchased  accounts,  $140.9
million,   were  demand  deposits  carrying  a  lower  interest  cost  than  the
Association's  previous  deposit mix. As a result the Association  experienced a
reduction in cost of funds.  The  acquisition  also resulted in the recording of
$13.4  million of core deposit  intangible,  which is being  amortized  over 8.1
years.  The impact of the branch  acquisition  is evident in  comparison  of the
results of  operations  for the three and nine  months  ended June 30,  1998 and
1997, as discussed under non-interest income and non-interest expense.

Changes in Financial Condition

At June 30,  1998,  the  consolidated  assets of the  Company  totaled  $1,008.7
million,  an  increase  of $28.6  million,  or 2.92%,  from  $980.1  million  at
September  30, 1997.  The increase in total assets was  primarily  the result of
loan  growth  which was  funded by  maturities  of  investments  and  additional
borrowing from the FHLB of Seattle.

Net loans receivable increased by $89.3 million, or 16.19%, to $640.8 million at
June 30, 1998,  compared to $551.5  million at September 30, 1997.  The increase
was primarily the result of continued new loan demand exceeding loan repayments,
augmented by the Company's  purchase of $5.1 million in higher yielding loans on
multi-family  residential  and  commercial  properties in Oregon during the nine
months ended June 30, 1998.

Investment securities decreased $62.6 million, or 21.97%, from $284.8 million at
September  30, 1997 to $222.2  million at June 30, 1998.  This  decrease was the
result of scheduled  maturities plus $49.2 million in securities  called. A call
provision  grants the issuer of a security the option of buying back all or part
of the issue  prior to  maturity.  The Company  also sold $19.0  million of U.S.
Treasury and mortgage backed  securities  during the quarter ended June 30, 1998
to fund loan demand.

Deposit  liabilities  increased $5.3 million,  or 0.79%,  from $674.0 million at
September 30, 1997 to $679.3 million at June 30, 1998. Management attributes the
increase to the maintaining of competitive  rates in our market areas as well as
the  use of an  automated  on-line  personal  computer-based  system  to  market
deposits  nationally.  Interest  credited on accounts  also  contributed  to the
increase.  The increase in deposits has been experienced  throughout the network
of 32 branches.

Advances  from  borrowers for taxes and  insurance  decreased  $2.2 million from
September  30, 1997 to June 30,  1998.  The  decrease is the result of using the
reserves to pay the  required  real estate taxes due on the  Association's  loan
receivable  portfolio in December  partially  offset by collection of taxes from
borrowers.

Advances  from the FHLB of Seattle  increased  $31.0  million,  or 24.03%,  from
$129.0  million  at  September  30,  1997 to $160.0  million  at June 30,  1998.
Proceeds from borrowings were used to fund loan originations.

Total shareholders' equity decreased $3.5 million, or 2.37%, from $144.5 million
at  September  30,  1997 to $141.0  million at June 30,  1998.  The  decrease is
primarily the result of the 5% stock repurchase program which began on April 24,
1998 and was  completed  by May 31,  1998.  Through  this  program,  the Company
repurchased 521,477 shares,  reducing equity by $11.6 million. This decrease was
partially  offset by the  addition of $6.8  million in earnings  for the year to
date, augmented by $628,956 in unrealized gains on securities available for sale
during the nine month period from September 30, 1997 to June 30, 1998.

Results of Operations

     Comparison of Nine Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997

General.  Income  before taxes  increased  $1.4  million,  or 14.72%,  from $9.6
million  for the nine months  ended June 30, 1997 to $11.0  million for the same
period ended June 30, 1998.  Due to an increase in the  effective  tax rate from
32.8% for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 to 37.8% for the nine months ended
June 30,  1998,  net  earnings  increased  at a lower  level  of  6.21%  for the
comparable  nine month periods.  See further  discussion  under "Income  Taxes."
Increases in net interest income and  non-interest  income were partially offset
by increases in non-interest expense.

Interest  Income.  Additional  interest  income  generated by the $260.7 million
increase in average interest earning assets  contributed to an increase of $13.7
million in interest  income for the nine months ended June 30, 1998  compared to
1997.  Of this  increase,  $7.5 million is  attributable  to increased  interest
income on investment  securities  and $6.4 million to increased  income on loans
receivable, partially offset by a decrease in interest income on mortgage backed
and related  securities.  The average yield on interest earning assets decreased
12 basis  points to 7.34% for the nine months  ended June 30,  1998  compared to
7.46% for the same period ended June 30, 1997.  Average yield decreased  because
investments,  which  have  a  lower  yield  than  loans,  represented  a  larger
proportion  of earning  assets for the nine months  ended June 30, 1998 than for
the same period ended June 30, 1997.  Investments  increased as a proportion  of

                                       13
<PAGE>

earning  assets after  proceeds  from the branch  acquisition  were  invested in
securities until the funds can be rolled into loans.  Changes in the yield curve
during the last year,  which has shifted  downward more than 100 basis points at
the long  end and has  flattened  at the  short  end,  also  contributed  to the
decrease in yield on earning  assets.  Offsetting  the  decrease in yield is the
Company's increased  investment in higher yielding  construction  lending in the
Portland, Oregon metropolitan area. In spite of the lower yields experienced for
the period,  interest  rate spread (the  difference  between the rates earned on
interest  earning  assets and the rates paid on  interest  bearing  liabilities)
improved  from 2.23% to 2.57% and  interest  rate  margin (net  interest  income
divided  by  average  interest  earning  assets)  improved  from  3.34% to 3.37%
comparing the nine month periods.

Interest Expense. Interest expense on deposit liabilities increased $6.0 million
for the nine months ended June 30, 1998  compared to the same period in 1997 due
to deposit  balances  added  through  the  branch  acquisition.  Although  total
deposits  increased  by $261.1  million  comparing  June 30,  1997 to 1998,  the
average  interest paid on  interest-bearing  deposits  decreased 56 basis points
from 5.12% for the nine months  ended June 30, 1997 to 4.56% for the same period
ended June 30, 1998.  Both the increase in deposit  balances and the decrease in
the rate paid on deposits are  primarily a result of the deposits  acquired with
the Wells Fargo branch  acquisition which consisted of 17% non-interest  bearing
deposit  accounts.  The average  balance of FHLB advances  increased from $108.5
million for the nine months  ended June 30, 1997 to $133.4  million for the same
period ended June 30, 1998 resulting in an increase in interest on FHLB advances
of $1.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1998  compared  with the same
period ended June 30, 1997.

Provision for Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses was $364,000 and there
were charge offs of $20,000  during the nine months ended June 30, 1998 compared
to a $315,000  provision  and charge offs of $1,369 during the nine months ended
June 30,  1997.  At June 30,  1998 the  allowance  for loan  losses was equal to
356.52% of non-performing  assets compared to 510.24% at September 30, 1997. The
decrease in the coverage  ratio was the result of an increase in  non-performing
loans from  $254,000 at  September  30, 1997 to $460,000 at June 30,  1998.  The
increase in non-performing loans relates to the addition of one loan on a single
family dwelling.

Non-Interest  Income.  Non-interest income increased $1.8 million, or 560.6%, to
$2.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 from  $317,370 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1997. The increase was  attributable  to $189,661 gains on
sales of U.S.  Treasury and mortgage backed securities as well as a $1.5 million
increase in fee income  related to the increase in deposit  accounts  subject to
service charges.

Non-Interest  Expense.  Non-interest  expense  increased  $7.0  million to $14.5
million  for the nine  months  ended June 30,  1998,  from $7.5  million for the
comparable period in 1997. Of this increase, $2.4 million was attributable to an
increase in  compensation  and benefit expense in 1998,  reflecting  addition of
staff  related to the Wells Fargo  acquisition  and an increase in  compensation
expense for the ESOP.  Occupancy  expense  increased  from $545,144 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1997 to $1,544,687 for the nine months ended June 30, 1998
due to the addition of the 25 acquired  branches.  Amortization  of core deposit
intangible  related to the acquisition  totaled $1.2 million for the nine months
ended June 30,  1998.  There was no  comparable  expense in the prior year.  The
branch  acquisition also impacted other expense which increased $2.1 million for
the nine months ended June 30, 1998 from the same period of 1997. Increases were
primarily seen in postage and courier, telephone, and supply expenses which were
up $529,130  year to date.  Expansion  of checking  accounts  and their  related
servicing, debit card service, and ATM machines and card servicing resulted in a
$719,790  increase  in the  related  expenses  which are also  included in other
expense. These increases were partially offset by a $94,116 reduction in deposit
insurance  premiums resulting from reduced assessment rates beginning January 1,
1997.  The ratio of  non-interest  expense to average total assets was 1.96% and
1.44% for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes increased $1.0 million for the nine
months  ended June 30, 1998  compared  with the prior  year.  During the quarter
ended March 31, 1997, the Company  recognized a tax benefit of $648,837  related
to loss on sale of the U.S.  federal  securities  bond fund in the  fiscal  year
ended  September 30, 1996.  Recognition of the benefit reduced the effective tax
rate for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the same period this
year. The balance of the increase is  attributable  to higher  earnings for this
period.

     Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997

General.  Earnings before taxes increased $401,111, or 11.83%, from $3.4 million
for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 to $3.8 million for this quarter  1998.  Net

                                       14
<PAGE>

income  increased  $440,773,  or 21.5%,  from $2.0  million for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 to $2.5  million for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998.
Increases in net interest income and  non-interest  income were partially offset
by increases in non-interest  expense.  These changes are all resultant from the
branch  acquisition  in July 1997  which  doubled  the number of  employees  and
tripled  the  number of  branches  for the  Association.  The  acquisition  also
resulted in the recording of core deposit  intangible  which amortizes at a rate
of $413,169 per quarter, representing the price paid for lower cost deposits.

Interest  Income.  Additional  interest  income  generated by the $269.6 million
increase in average interest  earning assets  contributed to an increase of $4.6
million in interest  income for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to
1997.  Of this  increase,  $2.3 million is  attributable  to increased  interest
income on investment  securities  and $2.4 million to increased  income on loans
receivable.  The average  yield on interest  earning  assets  decreased 18 basis
points to 7.33% for the three months  ended June 30, 1998  compared to 7.51% for
the same period ended June 30, 1997.  Average  yield  decreased  for the reasons
noted  previously,  because  investments,  which have a lower  yield than loans,
represented  a larger  proportion  of earning  assets for the three months ended
June 30,  1998 than for the same period  ended June 30, 1997 and overall  yields
are lower due to the downward  shift in the yield  curve.  In spite of the lower
yields experienced for the period,  interest rate spread (the difference between
the rates  earned on  interest  earning  assets and the rates  paid on  interest
bearing liabilities)  improved from 2.26% to 2.55%,  influenced by lower cost of
deposits  and  higher  yielding  construction  lending in the  Portland,  Oregon
metropolitan area.  Interest rate margin (net interest income divided by average
interest  earning  assets)  remained  consistent  when comparing the three month
periods.

Interest Expense. Interest expense on deposit liabilities increased $1.9 million
for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998  compared to the same period in 1997.
Although total deposits  increased by $261.1 million  comparing June 30, 1997 to
1998, the average interest paid on interest-bearing  deposits decreased 56 basis
points from 5.13% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to 4.57% for the same
period  ended June 30,  1998.  Both the  increase  in deposit  balances  and the
decrease in the rate paid on  deposits  are  primarily a result of the  deposits
acquired  with  the  Wells  Fargo  branch  acquisition  which  consisted  of 17%
non-interest  bearing  deposit  accounts.  The average  balance of FHLB advances
increased from $114.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $159.7
million for the same  period  ended June 30,  1998  resulting  in an increase in
interest on FHLB  advances of $581,044  for the three months ended June 30, 1998
compared with the same period ended June 30, 1997.

Provision for Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses was $198,000 and there
were charge offs of $20,000 during the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared
to a $45,000  provision  and $1,369 of charge offs during the three months ended
June 30,  1997.  During the  quarter  ended June 30,  1998,  the  provision  was
increased in response to the high level of loan portfolio growth.

Non-Interest  Income.  Non-interest  income increased  $720,245,  or 698.43%, to
$823,369 for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998 from  $103,124 for the three
months  ended June 30,  1997.  The  increase  was  primarily  attributable  to a
$507,434  increase in fee income  related to the  increase  in deposit  accounts
subject to service  charges and $189,661 of gains on sales of U.S.  Treasury and
mortgage backed securities.

Non-Interest  Expense.  Non-interest  expense  increased  $2.4  million  to $4.8
million for the three  months  ended June 30,  1998,  from $2.4  million for the
comparable  period in 1997. Of this increase,  $773,177 was  attributable  to an
increase in  compensation  and benefit expense in 1998,  reflecting  addition of
staff  related to the Wells Fargo  acquisition  and an increase in  compensation
expense for the ESOP.  Occupancy  expense  increased from $203,229 for the three
months  ended June 30, 1997 to $508,317 for the three months ended June 30, 1998
due to  the  addition  of the 25  acquired  branches.  Other  expense  increased
$760,048  from $499,561 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $1.3 million
for the same period ended June 30, 1998.  This  increase  reflects the impact of
the branch acquisition, with postage and courier, telephone, and supply expenses
increasing  $175,473 and  expenses  related to ATMs,  debit cards,  and checking
accounts  increasing  $195,071.  The ratio of non-  interest  expense to average
total  assets was 1.90% and 1.38% for the three  months  ended June 30, 1998 and
1997, respectively.

Income Taxes.  The provision  for income taxes  decreased  $39,662 for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 compared with the prior year.  The effective tax rate
for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998 is lower than the prior year due to
a reduction in the state tax rate for the current year.
