                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

1.       Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were
         prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore,
         do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete
         presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash
         flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
         the United States of America ("US GAAP"). Accordingly, these financial
         statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
         financial statements and notes thereto of Camco Financial Corporation
         ("Camco" or the "Corporation") included in Camco's Annual Report on
         Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003. However, all
         adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which, in
         the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the
         consolidated financial statements, have been included. The results of
         operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, are not
         necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the
         entire year.

2.       Principles of Consolidation

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
         of Camco and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries: Advantage Bank
         ("Advantage" or the "Bank") and Camco Title Insurance Agency, Inc.

3.       Critical Accounting Policies

         "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations," as well as disclosures found elsewhere in this
         quarterly report, are based upon Camco Financial's consolidated
         financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
         The preparation of these financial statements requires Camco to make
         estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
         liabilities, revenues and expenses. Several factors are considered in
         determining whether or not a policy is critical in the preparation of
         financial statements. These factors include, among other things,
         whether the estimates are significant to the financial statements, the
         nature of the estimates, the ability to readily validate the estimates
         with other information including third parties or available prices, and
         sensitivity of the estimates to changes in economic conditions and
         whether alternative accounting methods may be utilized under US GAAP.

         Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant
         change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance
         for loan losses, the valuation of mortgage servicing rights and
         goodwill impairment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

         ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

         The procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan
         losses reflect our evaluation of credit risk after careful
         consideration of all information available to us. In developing this
         assessment, we must rely on estimates and exercise judgment regarding
         matters where the ultimate outcome is unknown such as economic factors,
         developments affecting companies in specific industries and issues with
         respect to single borrowers. Depending on changes in circumstances,
         future assessments of credit risk may yield materially different
         results, which may require an increase or a decrease in the allowance
         for loan losses.

                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

3.       Critical Accounting Policies (continued)

         ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (continued)

         The allowance is regularly reviewed by management to determine whether
         the amount is considered adequate to absorb probable losses. This
         evaluation includes specific loss estimates on certain individually
         reviewed loans, statistical loss estimates for loan pools that are
         based on historical loss experience, and general loss estimates that
         are based upon the size, quality, and concentration characteristics of
         the various loan portfolios, adverse situations that may affect a
         borrower's ability to repay, and current economic and industry
         conditions. Also considered as part of that judgement is a review of
         the Bank's trends in delinquencies and loan losses, as well as trends
         in delinquencies and losses for the region and nationally, and economic
         factors.

         The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed
         adequate by management to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan
         portfolio. Management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is
         an estimate based on management's current judgement about the credit
         quality of the loan portfolio. While the Corporation strives to reflect
         all known risk factors in its evaluations, judgment errors may occur.

         MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS

         To determine the fair value of its mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs")
         each reporting quarter, the Corporation transmits information to a
         third party provider, representing individual loan information in each
         pooling period accompanied by escrow amounts. The third party then
         evaluates the possible impairment of MSRs as described below.

         Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when loans are sold
         with servicing retained. A pooling methodology to the servicing
         valuation, in which loans with similar characteristics are "pooled"
         together, is applied for valuation purposes. Once pooled, each grouping
         of loans is evaluated on a discounted earnings basis to determine the
         present value of future earnings that a purchaser could expect to
         realize from the portfolio. Earnings are projected from a variety of
         sources including loan service fees, interest earned on float, net
         interest earned on escrow balances, miscellaneous income and costs to
         service the loans. The present value of future earnings is the
         estimated market value for the pool, calculated using consensus
         assumptions that a third party purchaser would utilize in evaluating a
         potential acquisition of the servicing. Events that may significantly
         affect the estimates used are changes in interest rates and the related
         impact on mortgage loan prepayment speeds and the payment performance
         of the underlying loans. The interest rate for float, which is supplied
         by management, takes into consideration the investment portfolio
         average yield as well as current short duration investment yields.
         Management believes this methodology provides a reasonable estimate.
         Mortgage loan prepayment speeds are calculated by the third party
         provider utilizing the Economic Outlook as published by the Office of
         Chief Economist of Freddie Mac in estimating prepayment speeds and
         provides a specific scenario with each evaluation. Based on the
         assumptions discussed, pre-tax projections are prepared for each pool
         of loans serviced. These earning figures approximate the cash flow that
         could be received from the servicing portfolio. Valuation results are
         presented quarterly to management. At that time, management reviews the
         information and mortgage servicing rights are marked to lower of
         amortized cost or market for the current quarter.

                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

3.       Critical Accounting Policies (continued)

         GOODWILL

         We have developed procedures to test goodwill for impairment on an
         annual basis using June 30 financial information. This testing
         procedure is outsourced to a third party that evaluates possible
         impairment based on the following:

         The test involves assigning tangible assets and liabilities, identified
         intangible assets and goodwill to reporting units and comparing the
         fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value including
         goodwill. The value is determined assuming a freely negotiated
         transaction between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither being
         under any compulsion to buy or sell and both having reasonable
         knowledge of relevant facts. Accordingly, to derive the fair value of
         the reporting unit, the following common approaches to valuing business
         combination transactions involving financial institutions are utilized
         by a third party selected by Camco: (1) the comparable transactions
         approach - specifically based on earnings, book, assets and deposit
         premium multiples received in recent sales of comparable thrift
         franchises; and (2) the discounted cash flow ("DCF") approach. The
         application of the valuation techniques take into account the reporting
         unit's operating history, the current market environment and future
         prospects. As of the most recent quarter, the only reporting unit
         carrying goodwill is the Bank.

         If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount,
         goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and no second
         step is required. If not, a second test is required to measure the
         amount of goodwill impairment. The second test of the overall goodwill
         impairment compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit
         goodwill with the carrying amount of the goodwill. The impairment loss
         shall equal the excess of carrying value over fair value.

         After each testing period, the third party compiles a summary of the
         test that is then provided to the Audit Committee for review.

         SUMMARY

         Management believes the accounting estimates related to the allowance
         for loan losses, the capitalization, amortization, and valuation of
         mortgage servicing rights and the goodwill impairment test are
         "critical accounting estimates" because: (1) the estimates are highly
         susceptible to change from period to period because they require
         management to make assumptions concerning the changes in the types and
         volumes of the portfolios, rates of future prepayments, and anticipated
         economic conditions, and (2) the impact of recognizing an impairment or
         loan loss could have a material effect on Camco's assets reported on
         the balance sheet as well as its net earnings. Management has discussed
         the development and selection of these critical accounting estimates
         with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the Audit
         Committee has reviewed Camco's disclosures relating to such matters in
         the quarterly Management's Discussion and Analysis.

                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

4.       Earnings Per Share

         Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the
         weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
         Diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive effect of
         additional potential common shares issuable under the Corporation's
         stock option plans. The computations are as follows:



                                      FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
                                               MARCH 31,
                                        2004              2003
                                                  
Weighted-average common shares
  outstanding (basic)                 7,345,340         7,674,434
Dilutive effect of assumed exercise
  of stock options                       69,276            95,112
                                      ---------         ---------
Weighted-average common shares
  outstanding (diluted)               7,414,616         7,769,546
                                      =========         =========


         Options to purchase 17,705 and 7,088 shares of common stock with
         respective weighted-average exercise prices of $17.17 and $16.59 were
         outstanding at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, but were excluded
         from the computation of common share equivalents for those respective
         periods because the exercise prices were greater than the average
         market price of the common shares.

5.       Stock Option Plans

         Stockholders of the Corporation have approved four stock option plans.
         Under the 1972 Plan, 254,230 common shares were reserved for issuance
         to officers, directors, and key employees of the Corporation and its
         subsidiaries. The 1982 Plan reserved 115,824 common shares for issuance
         to employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. All of the stock
         options under the 1972 and 1982 Plans have been granted and were
         subject to exercise at the discretion of the grantees through 2002.
         Under the 1995 Plan, 161,488 shares were reserved for issuance. Under
         the 2002 Plan, 400,000 shares were reserved for issuance. Additionally,
         in connection with the acquisition of First Savings, the stock options
         of First Savings were converted into options to purchase 174,421 shares
         of the Corporation's stock at an exercise price of $7.38 per share,
         which expire in 2005. In connection with the 2000 acquisition of
         Westwood Homestead, the stock options of Westwood Homestead were
         converted into options to purchase 311,794 shares of the Corporation's
         stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $11.89 per share, which
         expire in 2008.

         The Corporation accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with
         SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which contains
         a fair-value based method for valuing stock-based compensation that
         entities may use, that measures compensation cost at the grant date
         based on the fair value of the award. Compensation is then recognized
         over the service period, which is usually the vesting period.
         Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 permits entities to continue to account for
         stock options and similar equity instruments under Accounting
         Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued
         to Employees." Entities that continue to account for stock options
         using APB Opinion No. 25 are required to make pro forma disclosures of
         net earnings and earnings per share, as if the fair-value based method
         of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied.

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

5.       Stock Option Plans (continued)

         The Corporation utilizes APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations
         in accounting for its stock option plans. Accordingly, no compensation
         cost has been recognized for the plans. Had compensation cost for the
         Corporation's stock option plans been determined based on the fair
         value at the grant dates for awards under the plans consistent with the
         accounting method utilized in SFAS No. 123, the Corporation's net
         earnings and earnings per share for the three-month periods ended March
         31, 2004 and 2003, would have been reported as the pro forma amounts
         indicated below:

         The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant
         using the modified Black-Scholes options-pricing model with the
         following assumptions used for grants during 2004, 2003 and 2002:
         dividend yield of 3.40%, 3.50%, and 3.84%, respectively; expected
         volatility of 21.44%, 16.88% and 16.34% respectively; a risk-free
         interest rate of 4.11%, 3.95% and 2.00% respectively, and an expected
         life of ten years for all grants.

                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

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

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from December 31, 2003 to March 31,
2004

At March 31, 2004, Camco's consolidated assets totaled $1.06 billion, an
increase of $17.9 million, or 1.7%, from the December 31, 2003 total. The
increase in total assets was comprised primarily of increases in mortgage-backed
securities available for sale, loans receivable, and loans held for sale, which
were partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents.

Cash and interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions totaled $38.8
million at March 31, 2004, a decrease of $15.0 million, or 27.8%, from December
31, 2003 levels. Investment securities totaled $30.1 million at March 31, 2004,
an increase of $1.9 million, or 6.8%, from the total at December 31, 2003.
Investment securities purchases of $8.0 million were comprised primarily of
intermediate-term callable U.S. Government agency obligations with an average
yield of 3.49%, which were partially offset by $6.0 million of investment
maturities.

Mortgage-backed securities totaled $99.5 million at March 31, 2004, an increase
of $13.9 million, or 16.2%, from December 31, 2003. Mortgage-backed securities
purchases totaled $32.4 million, while principal repayments totaled $6.1 million
and sales totaled $12.5 million during the three-month period ended March 31,
2004. Purchases of mortgage-backed securities during the period were comprised
primarily of short duration mortgage-backed securities yielding 3.87%, all of
which were classified as available for sale.

Loans receivable, including loans held for sale, totaled $820.7 million at March
31, 2004, an increase of $15.6 million, or 1.9%, from December 31, 2003. The
increase resulted primarily from loan disbursements and purchases totaling $98.4
million, which were partially offset by principal repayments of $54.2 million
and loan sales of $26.8 million. The volume of loans originated and purchased
during the first three months of 2004 decreased compared to the 2003 period by
$46.2 million, or 31.9%, while the volume of loan sales decreased by $65.2
million year to year. As interest rates have moved off their historical lows,
loans originated and purchased moved away from fixed rate lending to adjustable
rate lending. This has caused origination and purchases to be lower while at the
same time has allowed our portfolio to grow. Camco has typically held
adjustable-rate mortgage loans in its portfolio as an integral part of its
strategy to maintain an asset-sensitive interest-rate risk position. Loan
originations during the three-month period ended March 31, 2004, were comprised
primarily of $48.6 million of loans secured by one- to four-family residential
real estate, $18.8 million in consumer and other loans and $31.0 million in
loans secured by commercial real estate. Management will continue to expand its
consumer and commercial real estate lending in future periods as a means of
increasing the yield and diversifying the portfolio to a less dominated
proportion of one- to four-family residential real estate loans.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $5.5 million and $5.6 million at March 31,
2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, representing 43.0% and 41.5% of
nonperforming loans, respectively, at those dates. Nonperforming loans (90 days
or more delinquent plus nonaccrual loans) totaled $12.7 million and $13.6
million at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, constituting
1.55% and 1.69% of total net loans, including loans held for sale, at those
dates. At March 31, 2004, nonperforming loans were comprised of $10.7 million in
one- to four-family residential real estate loans, $1.2 million in commercial
and multi-family real estate loans and $777,000 of consumer and non-residential
loans. Management believes all nonperforming loans are adequately collateralized
and no loss is expected over and above allocated reserves on such loans. Loans
delinquent greater than 30 days but less than 90 days totaled $7.0 million at
March 31, 2004, compared to $8.7 million at December 31, 2003, a decrease of
$1.7 million, or 20.0%. Although management believes that its allowance for loan
losses is adequate based upon the available facts and circumstances at March 31,
2004, there can be no assurance that increased provisions will not be necessary
in future periods, which could adversely affect Camco's results of operations.

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from December 31, 2003 to March 31,
2004 (continued)

Deposits totaled $669.0 million at March 31, 2004, a decrease of $2.2 million,
or .33%, from the total at December 31, 2003. The decrease in deposits was due
to a $7.9 million decrease of interest bearing deposits which were offset
partially by the increase of $4.0 million of certificates of deposit.

Stockholders' equity totaled $93.0 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of
$450,000, or .49%, from December 31, 2003. The increase resulted primarily from
net earnings of $1.0 million, an increase in the unrealized gains on available
for sale securities of $274,000, and proceeds from the exercise of stock options
of $210,000 which were partially offset by dividends of $1.1 million.

Advantage is required to maintain minimum regulatory capital pursuant to federal
regulations. At March 31, 2004, the Bank's regulatory capital exceeded all
regulatory capital requirements and is considered "well capitalized".

         The following tables present certain information regarding compliance
by Advantage with applicable regulatory capital requirements at March 31, 2004:

         Federal law prohibits a financial institution from making a capital
distribution to anyone or paying management fees to any person having control of
the institution if, after such distribution or payment, the institution would be
undercapitalized. In addition, each company controlling an undercapitalized
institution must guarantee that the institution will comply with its capital
restoration plan until the institution has been adequately capitalized on
average during each of the four preceding calendar quarters and must provide
adequate assurances of performance.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2004
and 2003

General

Camco's net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2004 totaled $1.0
million, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 57.9%, from the $2.5 million of net
earnings reported in the comparable 2003 period. The decrease in earnings was
primarily attributable to a $1.9 million, or 55.5% decrease in other income and
a decrease of $295,000, or 4.6% in net interest income, which were partially
offset by a decrease in the provision for losses on loans of $165,000 and a
decrease in federal income tax expense of $720,000.

                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2004
and 2003 (continued)

Net Interest Income

Total net interest income amounted to $6.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2004, a decrease of $295,000, or 4.6%, compared to the three-month
period ended March 31, 2003, generally reflecting the effects of a decrease in
yield on total interest-earning assets of 54 basis points, from 5.69% in the
2003 period to 5.15% in 2004, and a $43.7 million, or 4.2%, decrease in the
average balance of interest-earning assets outstanding year to year.

Interest income on loans totaled $11.4 million for the three months ended March
31, 2004, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 10.3% from the comparable 2003 period.
The decrease resulted primarily from a 94 basis point decrease in the average
yield to 5.62% from 6.56% in 2003 which was partially offset by the increase of
average balance outstanding of $36.9 million or 4.8% in the 2004 quarter.
Interest income on mortgage-backed securities totaled $607,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2004, a $441,000, or 42.1% decrease from the 2003
quarter. The decrease was due primarily to a 66 basis point decrease in the
average yield, to 2.87% for the 2004 period, coupled with a $34.0 million, or
28.7%, decrease in the average balance outstanding in the 2004 period. Interest
income on investment securities decreased by $162,000, or 47.1%, due primarily
to a $14.2 million decrease in the average balance outstanding, coupled with a
65 basis point decrease in the average yield, to 2.64% in the 2004 period.
Interest income on other interest-earning assets decreased by $53,000, or 9.2%,
due primarily to a $32.4 million, or 33.5%, decrease in the average balance
outstanding which was partially offset by an 87 basis point increase in the
average yield, to 3.26% compared to 2.39% for the three months ended March 31,
2003.

Interest expense on deposits totaled $3.3 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2004, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 25.3%, compared to the same
quarter in 2003, due primarily to a 62 basis point decrease in the average cost
of deposits to 2.08% in the current quarter, and a $21.0 million, or 3.2%,
decrease in average deposits outstanding. Interest expense on borrowings totaled
$3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, a decrease of $534,000,
or 13.9%, from the same 2003 three-month period. The decrease resulted primarily
from a 56 basis point decrease in the average cost of borrowings to 5.01%, and a
$11.9 million, or 4.3%, decrease in the average balance outstanding year to
year. Decreases in the level of average yields on interest-earning assets and
average costs of interest-bearing liabilities were due primarily to the overall
decrease in interest rates in the economy coupled with a December restructuring
of $25.4 million of FHLB borrowings which carried an average fixed rate of
5.41%. The borrowings were replaced with variable rate advances having a
weighted average rate of approximately 1% as of March 31, 2004.

As a result of the foregoing changes in interest income and interest expense,
net interest income decreased by $295,000, or 4.6%, to a total of $6.1 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The interest rate spread increased to
approximately 2.22% at March 31, 2004, from 2.15% at March 31, 2003, while the

                           CAMCO FINANCIAL CORPORATION

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

            For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2004
and 2003 (continued)

Provision for Losses on Loans

A provision for losses on loans is charged to earnings to bring the total
allowance for loan losses to a level considered appropriate by management based
on historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank,
the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic
conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to the Bank's market areas,
and other factors related to the collectibility of the Bank's loan portfolio.
Based upon an analysis of these factors, management recorded a provision for
losses on loans totaling $255,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, a
decrease of $165,000, or 39.3%, from the comparable period in 2003. The decrease
in the current period provision compared to the 2003 period was predicated
primarily on a $1.7 million, or 8.0% decrease in the level of classified loans
year to year. Management believes all classified loans are adequately
collateralized, however, there can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance
will be adequate to absorb losses on known classified assets or that the
allowance will be adequate to cover losses on classified assets in the future.

Other Income

Other income totaled $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, a
decrease of $1.9 million, or 55.5%, from the comparable 2003 period. The
decrease in other income was primarily attributable to a $1.2 million decrease
in gain on sale of loans, a $602,000 decrease in the valuation of mortgage
servicing rights and a decrease of $208,000, in late charges, rent and other.
The decrease in gain on sale of loans was due to the decrease of $65.2 million
in the volume of loan sales. The decline in mortgage servicing rights was
attributable to amortization related to the high level of loan prepayments in
the servicing portfolio in 2003. The reduction in late charges, rent and other
was due primarily to a decrease in title premiums and other fees on loans due to
the $46.2 million decrease of loans originated and purchased in 2004 compared to
the 2003 period. The Corporation's mortgage banking income, largely comprised of
gains on sale of loans, servicing revenue, and title premiums are subject to the
cyclical changes in the overall level of interest rates in the economy. The rise
in home mortgage interest rates off the historical lows over the last six months
have had a dampening effect on the Corporation's net earnings. The higher home
mortgage rates will decrease the Company's originations for primarily fixed rate
mortgage loans which will diminish the fee income derived from the sale of those
loans in the secondary market. The origination of adjustable rate home loans
generally increase during these interest rate cycles and after a period of time,
borrowers have typically come back into the home purchase and construction
market using those types of loans to finance their homes. Over time, this will
shift earnings from fees to net interest margin income for the Bank.

General, Administrative and Other Expense

General, administrative and other expense totaled $5.9 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2004, an increase of $91,000, or 1.6%, from the
comparable period in 2003. The increase in general, administrative and other
expense was due primarily to an increase of $77,000, or 43.5%, in advertising
and a $25,000, or 2.1%, increase in other operating costs, which were partially
offset by a reduction of $66,000, or 7.0%, in occupancy and equipment and
$62,000 in franchise taxes. The increase in advertising was primarily due to
hiring an advertising agency to better manage the Company's marketing effort to
uniformly promote our brand, key product offerings and better manage our costs.
The increase in other operating costs were attributable to higher compliance
costs as a result of Sarbanes/Oxley. The decrease in occupancy and equipment was
due primarily to the closing of the Russell, Kentucky branch and a decrease in
depreciation expense. The decrease in franchise tax was due to the receipt of
refunds.

and 2003 (continued)

Federal Income Taxes

The provision for federal income taxes totaled $448,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2004, a decline of $720,000, or 61.6%, compared to the three
months ended March 31, 2003. This reduction was primarily attributable to a $2.1
million, or 59.1%, decrease in pre-tax earnings as well as the non-taxable
nature of increases in cash surrender value of life insurance. The Corporation's
effective tax rates amounted to 30.2% and 32.2% for the three-month periods
ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
