NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation

The foregoing unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the
disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements furnished
herein include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007
and 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the
financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of AmericanWest
Bancorporations (Company) consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the
Companys consolidated financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 2. Securities

All securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are excluded from earnings and reported as a
net amount as a separate component of stockholders equity. Gains or losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined using the specific identification method. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the
effective interest method over the period to maturity. Carrying amounts and fair values at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 were as follows:

The allowance for loan loss and reserve for unfunded commitments are maintained at levels considered adequate by
management to provide for possible loan losses as of the consolidated statement of condition reporting dates. The allowance and reserve for unfunded commitments are based on managements assessment of various factors affecting the loan
portfolio, including problem loans, business conditions and loss experience, and an overall evaluation of the quality of the underlying collateral. Changes in the allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded commitments during the three
and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were as follows:

NOTE 4. Business Combinations

Far West Bancorporation

On April 1, 2007, the Company acquired Far West Bancorporation (FWBC) and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Far West Bank, in an acquisition accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The acquisition was consistent with the Companys strategic plan to expand into high growth markets. The financial results of FWBC
have been included in the Companys consolidated financial statements since that date.

The aggregate purchase price was approximately $155,557,000
and included cash of $30,004,000, common stock of $124,423,000 and direct merger costs of $1,130,000. The value of the 5,744,197 shares issued was determined based on the $21.66 average closing market price of the Companys common stock for the
two trading days before and after the measurement date of March 28, 2007 when the number of shares to be issued was determined. Total transaction expenses of $1,495,000 included $1,130,000 of direct expenses noted above and $365,000 of other
miscellaneous merger expenses.

##### Table of Contents

The following table presents unaudited pro forma results of operations related to the acquisition consummated on
April 1, 2007, for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. The cost savings already realized by the Company as a result of the FWBC merger are included in the AWBC column for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Additional cost
savings anticipated are not reflected in the pro forma consolidated condensed statements of income. No assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate level of such cost savings. The AWBC column reflects the Companys actual results
reported for the periods shown. The FWBC column reflects the actual results for the periods shown, prior to the acquisition date. The pro forma column represents purchase adjustments which would have occurred during the periods shown if the
acquisition would have occurred on January 1, 2006. The pro forma results do not necessarily indicate the results that would have been obtained had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2006.

All of the common securities of the Trusts are owned by the Company. The Company has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the capital securities along with all obligations of the Trusts under the trust agreements.
Interest income from the trust preferred securities is the source of revenues for these Trusts. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, the Trusts are
not consolidated in the Companys financial statements.

As of June 30, 2007, all of the junior subordinated debt, less the common stock of the
Trusts, qualified as Tier I capital, under the guidance issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB). Effective April 11, 2005, the FRB adopted a rule that permits the inclusion of junior subordinated debt in Tier I
capital, but with stricter quantitative limits. Under the FRB rule, after a five-year transition period ending March 31, 2009, the aggregate amount of junior subordinated debt and certain other restricted core capital elements is limited to 25%
of Tier I capital elements, net of goodwill. The amount of junior subordinated debt and certain other elements in

excess of the limit could be included in Tier II capital, subject to restrictions. All of the currently issued junior subordinated debt is expected to
qualify under the new limitations as of March 31, 2009. There can be no assurance that the FRB will not further limit the amount of junior subordinated debt permitted to be included in Tier I capital for regulatory capital purposes.

includes net income and unrealized gains and losses on the Companys available-for-sale securities, net of tax, amounted to approximately $6,305,000 and $4,144,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

|Expected dividends      |  | 0.5                         | % |  | 0.5                       | % |  | 0.5       | % |  | 0.4       | %

The expected volatility is based on historical volatility, the expected dividends are based on historical cash
dividends, the expected term is based on the short-cut method and the risk free interest rate is based on US Treasury Constant Maturity yields for periods similar to the expected life of the option. The weighted average fair value of options issued
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 was $6.68 and $8.52, respectively. The weighted average fair value of options issued during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was $8.46 and $8.67, respectively. Total
unrecognized compensation cost at June 30, 2007 is $245,000 which will be recognized through 2011. The amortization of stock-based compensation reflects estimated forfeitures adjusted for actual forfeiture experience. Estimated forfeitures will
be continually evaluated in subsequent periods and may change based on new facts and circumstances.

The weighted average remaining term for outstanding
and exercisable stock options at June 30, 2007 was 6.5 years and 5.7 years, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value at June 30, 2007 was $798,000 for stock options outstanding and exercisable. The intrinsic value for stock options is
calculated based on the exercise price of the underlying awards and the market price of the Companys common stock as of the reporting date. The intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007
was $143,000 and $617,000, respectively.

Restricted Common Stock Awards

The Company has granted performance-based restricted common stock awards and non-performance based restricted stock awards (collectively restricted common stock awards) to certain executives and employees. The
restricted common stock awards vest between September 2007 and June 2012 and are expensed as compensation over the vesting period.

The purpose of these
awards is to promote the long term interests of the Company and its shareholders by providing a financial incentive as a means for retaining certain key executives and employees. For the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the
compensation expense related to these grants was approximately $123,000 and $38,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the compensation expense related to these grants was approximately $364,000 and $102,000,
respectively. The compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007, includes $141,000 related to the immediate vesting of 7,500 restricted common stock awards for an executive terminated without cause. The following table summarizes
restricted common stock activity for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

NOTE 10. Subsequent Events

On July 25, 2007, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.04 per common share. The dividend is payable on August 28, 2007 to shareholders of record on August 14, 2007.

NOTE 11. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.
The new guidance allows an institution, at its option, and on an item by item basis, to begin valuing selected assets and liabilities at fair market value. The rule is required to be adopted for years beginning after November 15, 2007. Upon
adoption of this guidance, the initial valuation adjustment would be made to beginning retained earnings. The Company will adopt this guidance on January 1, 2008 and management is assessing the impact of the implementation of this guidance.

On July 13, 2006, FASB Interpretation Number (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109, was issued. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and reporting for income taxes where interpretation of the tax law may be uncertain. FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement,
presentation and disclosure of income tax uncertainties with respect to positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. The Company adopted FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The implementation of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on
the Company.

Net
Interest Income

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2007 was $23.0 million, an increase of $7.5 million from the second quarter of 2006. Interest income for the second quarter of 2007 was $35.8 million, an increase of $11.7
million over the same period of the prior year. The increase in interest income is related mainly to the average earning assets increase of $494.0 million and an increased yield on earning assets of 49 basis points. The increase in the average
earning assets is principally due to acquired loans from FWB of $350.9 million. Interest expense for the second quarter of 2007 was $12.8 million, an increase of $4.2 million over the similar period of the prior year. The

increase in interest expense is related to an increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities of 34 basis points and the average interest bearing
liabilities increase of $358.8 million from the similar period of 2006. The increase in the average interest bearing liabilities is principally due to the acquired interest bearing deposits from FWB of $241.9 million.

The tax equivalent net interest margin for the second quarter of 2007 was 5.37%, an increase of 30 basis points from the same period in 2006. The average yield on loans
for the second quarter of 2007 was 8.49%, an increase of 48 basis points from the same period in 2006. The increase in the average yield on loans is principally due to the FWB portfolio acquired, partially offset by a change in the accounting for
deferred loan fees and origination costs implemented during the first quarter of 2007.

The Companys net interest margin for the second quarter of
2007 was also adversely impacted by the cost of interest bearing deposits, which increased by 37 basis points over the same period in 2006. The increases were driven principally by higher rates paid on money market and time deposit accounts due to
heightened market competition. This was offset slightly by a shift in the Companys deposit mix with an increase in average non-interest bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits to 23% from 21% for the similar quarter of the prior
year.

The following table sets forth the Companys net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006

Net interest income for
the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $37.7 million, an increase of $9.0 million from the same period of the prior year. Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $60.6 million, an increase of $17.2 million over the same
period of the prior year. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $22.9 million, an increase of $8.2 million over the similar period of the prior year.

The tax equivalent net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was 5.08%, a decrease of 1 basis point from the same period in 2006. The average yield on loans for the six months ended June 30,
2007 was 8.29%, an increase of 47 basis points from the same period in 2006. The increase in the average yield on loans is caused mainly by the acquisition of FWBs loan portfolio of $350.9 million which generally had higher yielding loans.
Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2006, the average yield on loans was reduced by approximately 6 basis points due to the reversal of interest for a large loan placed on non-accrual status. Offsetting the impact of this
reversal was a change in the Companys deferral of loan fees effective January 1, 2007. Prior to January 1, 2007, the Company did not defer loan fees on loans with contractual maturities of one year or less as the amount was deemed
immaterial. Based on the increased originations of short-term loans, effective January 1, 2007, the Company began deferring all loan fees.

The
Companys net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was also adversely impacted by the cost of interest bearing deposits, which increased by 63 basis points over the same period in 2006, and the cost of overnight
borrowings, which increased 67 basis points over the similar period of the prior year. The cost of interest bearing deposits increased mainly due to heightened market competition.

The following table summarizes the repricing in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. The adjustable and variable rate loans are tied
to Prime or another market index. Adjustable rate loans do not reprice immediately with market changes.

|Fixed Rates      |  | 28           | % |  | 29               | %

The change in the mix of the loan portfolio repricing is principally due to the portfolio acquired from FWB. Of
the outstanding balances of the FWB loan portfolio 73% had variable rates.

Provision for Credit Losses

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recognized a provision for credit losses of $1.8 million. This represents 0.43% and 0.25% of average
gross loans on an annualized basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2006 was $704,000, or 0.24% of average loans on an annualized basis. For the six months
ended June 30, 2006 the provision was $1.5 million, or 0.27% of average gross loans on an annualized basis and for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the annualized net charge-offs were 0.46% and 0.26% of average gross loans,
respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, annualized net charge-offs were 0.33% and 0.62%, respectively. Included in net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2007 was the partial charge-off of $1.5 million related to a
single relationship involving a wood products manufacturing loan relationship. The net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2006 included the partial charge-off of a single relationship of $2.4 million.

The provision is determined based on a model which considers, among other things, specific loan risk characteristics in
the portfolio and the determination of loan classifications. Management regularly evaluates the level of provision and the allowance for credit losses for adequacy by considering changes in the nature of the loan portfolio, portfolio composition,
overall portfolio quality, industry concentrations, delinquency trends, current economic factors and the estimated impact of current economic conditions that may affect a borrowers ability to pay. Management continually monitors the economic
conditions of the markets in which it currently operates, which include mainly Eastern and Central Washington, Northern Idaho and Utah. This information is used in the analysis of its provision for credit losses. Management also considers general
economic conditions in the analysis. The provision for credit losses is a significant estimate and the use of different assumptions could produce different results.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was approximately $4.7 million
as compared to $2.2 million for the same period of 2006, an increase of $2.5 million or 114%. This increase consists of the following components:



| |  |  | Fees and service charges on deposits increased $1.1 million, or 80%. Of this change, approximately $923,000 was related to an increase in fees and service charges
on deposit accounts acquired from FWB.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Fees on mortgage loan sales increased $599,000 or 148% related mainly to increases in staffing in the residential mortgage teams and operations in Utah, including
FWB.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other non-interest income increased $788,000, or 198%. The increase in non-interest income includes an increase in asset sale income of approximately $215,000,
which relates mainly to the sale of an occupied financial center which is being relocated. This transaction resulted in a gain of $319,000, which was partially offset by the write-down of a vacant building of $190,000. The vacant building is under
contract for sale and is expected to close in the third quarter with no additional gain or loss. Bankcard related revenue increased $156,000 from the similar period of the prior year, related mainly to the credit card portfolio acquired from FWB.
Income related to bank-owned life insurance increased $154,000 mainly due to acquired policies from FWB.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Non-interest income for the six
months ended June 30, 2007 was approximately $7.1 million, an increase of $3.1 million or 80% over the similar period of 2006. The following items contributed to this change:



| |  |  | Fees and service charges increased $1.3 million, or 52%. As discussed above, the acquired deposits from FWB contributed $923,000 of the revenue during 2007, all of
which occurred in the second quarter. Additionally, service charges on analyzed accounts, a new product offering in mid-2006, increased by $284,000 as compared to the prior year.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Fees on mortgage loan sales increased $661,000, or 96%, related mainly to increases in staffing in the residential mortgage teams and operations in Utah.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Other non-interest income increased $1.2 million, or 163%. The following items contributed to this change:
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | o | Bank-owned life insurance revenue increased $280,000 related partially to acquired policies from FWB.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | o | Asset sale income increased $225,000. The prior year balances included a write-down of $300,000 for the reclassification of certain buildings to held for sale, which was partially
offset by a gain on sale of mortgage servicing of $237,000. The asset sale income components for 2007 are discussed above.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | o | Bankcard income increased $194,000 related principally to an acquired credit card portfolio from FWB.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | o | Merchant fee income increased $140,000 related to operations at FWB and enhanced product offerings launched in 2006.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | o | Foreclosed asset sale income increased $123,000 related mainly to the sale of a foreclosed property in the first quarter of 2007 which resulted in a gain of $166,000.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | o | Loan servicing fees increased $122,000 related to the acquired mortgage servicing portfolio from Far West Bancorporation. This portfolio was sold prior to June 30, 2007 without
a gain or loss recorded.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was approximately $19.0 million, an increase of $6.3 million, or 50%, over the similar period of 2006. The increase from the prior year is related mainly to higher salaries
and employee benefits expense of $4.0 million. This increase was caused primarily by the increase in the number of full-time equivalent positions attributable to the FWB acquisition and the opening of four financial centers and two loan production
offices since the same period of the prior year and the related increases in salaries, incentives, taxes and insurance. Offsetting these costs is an increase in the deferred direct loan origination costs of $539,000, a decrease in stock option
expense of $137,000 related to options issued to non-employee board members in the prior year of $127,000 and staffing reductions which occurred in the first quarter of 2007.

Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was approximately $32.7 million, an increase of $8.4 million or 34% over the similar period of 2006 related mainly to higher salaries and employee
benefits of $5.6 million. This increase was principally related to the higher number of full-time equivalent employees attributable to the Far West Bancorporation acquisition on April 1, 2007, the Columbia Trust Bancorp acquisition on
March 16, 2006 and the opening of four new financial center locations and two loan production offices. During the first quarter of 2007, there were severance benefits of $364,000 paid to employees terminated in connection with the
Companys expense reduction initiative.

Total occupancy and equipment expense increased by $1.2 million and $1.9 million over the three and six
months ended June 30, 2006, respectively. The increase is principally attributed to costs associated with new and acquired facilities and remodeled or relocated existing financial centers. Additionally, vendor service contracts have increased
with the increased number of employees and account growth. Amortization of intangible assets increased $769,000 over the similar quarter of the prior year related to the amortization of the core deposit intangible asset recorded related to the FWB
acquisition. The core deposit intangible is being amortized on an accelerated basis and approximately $2.4 million is expected to be expensed during 2007. Offsetting this expense is the accounting accretion and amortization of FWB loans and deposits
acquired which resulted in an increase of approximately $81,000 in net interest income.

Provision for Income Tax

The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were 35.0% and 35.5%, respectively. The slight decrease from the prior year is related mainly
to recaptured tax credits in the prior year which is slightly offset by increasing state income taxes in Utah. The Company anticipates recapturing certain tax credits in 2007; however, the impact is anticipated to be less significant than in the
previous year.

Non-performing Assets

Non-performing
assets include loans that are 90 or more days past due or on non-accrual status and real estate and other loan collateral acquired through foreclosure and repossession. Accruing loans 90 days or more past due may remain on an accrual basis if
adequately collateralized and in the process of collection. For non-accrual loans, income may be recognized on a cash basis if the borrower demonstrates an ability to continue payments of principal and interest in accordance with the loan agreement.
Interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed and charged against income at the time a loan is placed on non-accrual status.

Total non-performing assets were $23.9 million, or 1.19% of total assets at June 30, 2007. This compares to $14.5 million or 1.05% of total assets at June 30,
2006. At December 31, 2006, the non-performing assets were $12.1 million, or 0.86% of total assets. The increase in non-performing assets from year-end was principally due to the placement on non-accrual status of loans totaling $10.5 million
related to a single-relationship wood products manufacturing company and the FWB acquisition which contributed $4.6 million to the non-performing loans total. These increases were slightly offset by the pay-off of a large non-performing loan
relationship totaling $6.2 million.

At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company had approximately $23.5 million and $19.3 million,
respectively, of loans that were not classified as non-performing but for which known information about the borrowers financial condition caused management to have concern about the ability of the borrowers to comply with the repayment terms
of the loans if the weaknesses were uncorrected.

Investment Portfolio

The Companys investment portfolio increased from $39.5 million at December 31, 2006 to $69.0 million at June 30, 2007. The increase in the investment portfolio is mainly related to acquired investments
from the FWBC merger of $30.2 million. All securities are classified as available-forsale and recorded at fair value. Management believes that this classification provides greater flexibility to respond to interest rate changes and liquidity
needs.

Loan Portfolio

Total gross loans increased
$429.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, including the acquired FWB portfolio of $350.9 million. Organic loan growth was $78.5 million, or 13% on an annualized basis for the six months ended June 30, 2007. This increase
includes organic growth in commercial real estate of $53.9 million and residential construction loans of $16.5 million, offset by a decline of agricultural loans of $3.3 million. Approximately $29.8 million of the second quarter organic loan growth
was generated by the Banks loan production offices in South Jordan and Salt Lake City, Utah. The percentage of commercial real estate loans declined slightly to 48% of the total portfolio at June 30, 2007 compared to 53% at
December 31, 2006. The commercial real estate loans include commercial construction loans. At June 30, 2007, the Banks largest 20 credit relationships consisted of loans and loan commitments ranging from $9.9 million to $25.0
million, with an aggregate total credit exposure of $301.3 million and outstanding balances of $198.4 million.

A substantial majority of the Banks
loans are extended to small and medium-sized businesses, agricultural businesses, professionals and consumers in the Banks principal market area and are secured by residential and commercial real estate, crops, business inventory and
receivables. Real estate values in these areas remain stable. Prices for agricultural commodities are relatively stable. Significant, long term deterioration in any of these underlying factors could affect the collectability of a material portion of
the Banks loans outstanding. Each of these factors is also considered in the analysis of assessing the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses.

Consolidated Financial Statements.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Commitments

At June 30, 2007, the Banks allowance for loan losses was $21.8 million or 1.32% of total gross loans. This compares to $15.1 million or 1.24% at
December 31, 2006. At June 30, 2007 the Banks reserve for unfunded commitments was $1.4 million as compared to $881,000 at December 31, 2006. The allowance for loan losses and the reserve for unfunded commitments are increased
by charges to income through the provision for credit losses and the allowance related to acquired loans, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans are charged to the allowance when management believes the collection of principal is
unlikely.

In assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded commitments, management objectively analyzes recent
historical loan loss experience and projects future allowance requirements. The analysis of credits provides an inherent loss rate by risk ratings. Each category of risk rating is assigned a projected loss value based upon general historic
valuations and current management expectations for future losses. Additionally, management utilizes an analysis of impaired loans to determine specific reserves. Management also compares projected future allowance requirements with current
non-performing loan conditions and historical loss statistics. Finally, management utilizes judgment based on individual loan evaluations, delay in receipt of customer financial information, related credit facilities, volatility of economic and
customer specific conditions or concentrations, and delinquency rates in assessing the allowance for loan losses.

Management believes that the allowance
for loan losses and reserve for unfunded commitments are adequate at June 30, 2007. Management uses currently available information to recognize losses on loans and foreclosed real estate and other foreclosed assets; however, future additions
to the allowances may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions and borrower or loan characteristics.

Deposits, Borrowings and Other
Liabilities

To attract and retain deposits, the Bank offers a wide variety of account types and maturities, both interest bearing and non-interest
bearing. Some account types have additional products bundled with them, such as free checks and free or discounted access to other bank services. Interest rates on accounts are determined by management based on the Banks funding needs and
market conditions and can change as frequently as daily.

Total deposits grew $386.2 million for the second quarter of 2007, ending the period at $1.5
billion. This includes the acquired deposits of FWB of $383.4 million. Of the organic increase of $2.8 million from December 31, 2006, there were increases in certificate of deposit accounts of $17.4 million, NOW, savings and MMDA of $14.5
million and a decrease in the non-interest bearing deposits of $29.1 million. Non-interest bearing deposits were 23% of total deposits as of June 30, 2007 as compared to 21% at December 31, 2006 which is a result of the organic decrease in
non-interest bearing deposits offset by 37% of the acquired FWB deposits being in the non-interest bearing category.

Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle
(FHLB) advances and other borrowings increased approximately $51.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in FHLB advances and other borrowings is mainly a result of the growth in loans of $429.4 million combined with
slower deposit growth. The Company issued $20.6 million of junior subordinated debt on March 22, 2007 to provide a portion of the cash consideration for the merger with Far West Bancorporation. The junior subordinated debt will bear a fixed
rate of interest at 6.53% for the first five years and thereafter will bear interest at a rate equal to the three month LIBOR plus 1.63%.

Other
liabilities have increased $5.1 million as compared to the balance of $9.6 million at December 31, 2006. The increase is related mainly to acquired salary continuation agreements from FWBC of $3.0 million. Additionally, the Company has $1.2
million of taxes payable at June 30, 2007 compared to taxes receivable, which were classified as an other asset of $1.7 million at December 31, 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Management believes that the Companys cash flow will be sufficient to support its existing operations for the foreseeable future. Cash flows from operations generally contribute significantly to liquidity, as do
proceeds from issuances of junior subordinated debt and increasing customer deposits. In the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company had $11.3 million in cash provided by operating activities principally due to the net income for the first
six months and balance sheet changes of assets and liabilities, excluding the FWB acquired balances. This compared to $6.9 million provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2006. Additionally, the Company generated $74.4
million and $50.8 million in net cash from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

The Banks
primary source of funds is its deposits. In addition, the Bank has the ability to borrow from various sources, including the FHLB and correspondent banks that provide Fed Funds lines. At June 30, 2007, the Bank had $184.2 million of available
credit (after deducting outstanding borrowings) from these sources as compared to $244.2 million at December 31, 2006.

The Parent Company received a
dividend of $10.0 million from the Bank during the first quarter of 2007, to provide a portion of the funding for the acquisition of Far West Bancorporation which was completed on April 1, 2007. Additionally, the Parent Company issued junior
subordinated debt, net of purchased securities of the Trust of $619,000 (refer to Note 5). The Parent Company declared $0.07 per share of dividends on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2007. On July 25, 2007, the Parent
Company declared a dividend of $0.04 per common share. There were no repurchases of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2007 or 2006, other than 1,532 shares tendered on payment for the exercise of stock options in the first
quarter of 2007.

The Parent Companys ability to service borrowings is generally dependent upon the availability of dividends from the Bank. The
payment of dividends by the Bank is subject to limitations imposed by law and governmental regulations. In determining whether the Bank or the Company will declare a dividend, the respective boards of directors consider factors including financial
condition, anticipated growth, acquisition opportunities and applicable laws, regulations and regulatory capital requirements. Another potential source of cash is a line of credit of $5.0 million that the Parent Company has with an unaffiliated
financial institution. The line was not used during the first six months of 2007.

The Companys total stockholders equity increased to $282.9
million at June 30, 2007 as compared to $152.0 million at December 31, 2006. This increase is mainly related stock issued in the acquisition of FWBC of $124.4 million and retained net income of $5.7 million. The Companys total
stockholders equity to total assets ratio increased to 14.06% as of June 30, 2007 from 10.73% as of December 31, 2006. As of June 30, 2007, the Companys ending tangible shareholders equity to ending tangible assets
ratio decreased to 7.23% as compared to 8.10% from December 31, 2006. At June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company held cash and cash equivalent assets of $59.5 million and $55.7 million, respectively.

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Companys financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory
accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier I
capital to average assets, as those terms are defined in the regulations. Management believes, as of June 30, 2007, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of June 30, 2007, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Company categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework
for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following tables. There are no conditions or events since
the notification that management believes have changed the Banks category.

|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
|------- | -----------------------------------------------------------

In
managements opinion, there have been no material changes in reported market risks faced by the Company since the end of the most recent fiscal year. Under parallel interest rate changes of an increase or decrease in rates of 100 basis
points and 200 basis points over the next twelve months, the Companys net interest income is expected to increase moderately under rising interest rates and to decline moderately under falling interest rates. This is because the Company
has slightly more assets repricing than liabilities during this time period. These scenarios also include the assumptions that balances and current pricing spreads remain constant. The economic value of the Companys equity is also
expected to increase with rising interest rates. Both of these interest rate risk measures remain within the Companys policy limits as of June 30, 2007. Management also runs nonparallel interest rate scenarios and a most likely
rate scenario to consider the impact of various interest rate changes in the yield curve and the respective impact on net interest income to determine if any actions should be taken.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures.
|------- | ------------------------

During the six months ended June 30,
2007, there were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect internal control over financial reporting.

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the principal executive officer and
the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). Based
upon that evaluation, the Companys chief executive officer and the chief operating officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, in ensuring
that material information relating to AmericanWest Bancorporation, including its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms.
