The Companys
Board of Directors intends to review the payment of dividends quarterly and plans to continue to maintain a regular quarterly dividend in the future, subject to financial condition, results of operations, tax considerations, industry standards,
economic conditions, regulatory restrictions that affect the payment of dividends by subsidiaries to the Company and other relevant factors.



The Company is subject to requirements of Delaware law that generally limits dividends to an amount equal to the difference between the amount by which
total assets exceed total liabilities and the amount equal to the aggregate par value of the outstanding shares of capital stock. If there is no difference between these amounts, dividends are limited to net income for the current and/or immediately
preceding year.

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



Forward-Looking Statements



When used in this Annual Report, the words or phrases will likely
result, are expected to, will continue, is anticipated, estimate, project or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including changes in economic conditions in the market area of Pocahontas Bancorp, Inc. (the Company), changes in
policies by regulatory agencies, fluctuations in interest rates, demand for loans in the Companys market area, and competition that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or
projected. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the
Companys financial performance and could cause the Companys actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements.



The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to
publicly release the results of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.



OverviewThe Company is a savings and loan holding company
headquartered in Jonesboro, Arkansas. The Company has no substantial operations other than serving as the holding company of its wholly owned subsidiary, First Community Bank (the Bank).



The Bank is a community-oriented federally chartered savings and loan
association regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS). The Bank has a total of 21 locations: 20 locations are concentrated in the Northeast Arkansas counties of Craighead, Clay, Green, Jackson, Lawrence, Poinsett, Randolph and Sharp, and
the 21stlocation is in Tulsa County Oklahoma. Southern Mortgage Corporation, a mortgage company located in Tulsa,
Oklahoma, is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank.



Our
primary business consists of acting as a financial intermediary by attracting deposits from the general public and using such funds, together with borrowings and other funds, to originate loans and invest in securities. Mortgage loans consist
primarily of single family residential and commercial real estate located in the Companys primary market areas. In addition to mortgage loans, the Company uses funds to originate construction, consumer and commercial business loans and to
purchase investment securities.



During 2002 and 2003, the
Company acquired four financial institutions which have added significantly to growth. During 2004, the Company turned its attention to integrating and streamlining operations, cutting costs and organic growth. During 2005, the Company purchased a
building in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma which allowed us to open a full service branch to better serve our customers in this area. We also constructed two new branch locations in northeast Arkansas (one in Jonesboro and the other in Paragould). A new
mall is scheduled to open in Jonesboro during the spring of 2006 and we expect to open a location there as well.



The Companys net income is primarily affected by its net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on its loan,
mortgage-backed securities, and investment portfolios, and its cost of funds consisting of interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds, including FHLB advances. The Companys net income also is affected by its provisions for losses on loans
and investments in real estate, as well as the amount of noninterest income (including fees and service charges and gains or losses on sales of loans) and noninterest expense (including compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment expense,
data processing expense, and income taxes). Net income of the Company also is affected significantly by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates, government policies, and actions of regulatory
authorities.



2005 HighlightsNet income for
the year ended September 30, 2005 was $3.2 million, compared to $3.5 million for the year ended September 30, 2004. Basic earnings per share was $0.72 and diluted earnings per share was $0.71 for the year ended September 30, 2005
compared to basic earnings per share of $0.77 and diluted earnings per share of $0.75 for the year ended September 30, 2004.



The Company hired a professional advertising company to assist in the design and marketing of a new, more contemporary logo for the Bank during 2005.
Since the launch of the new logo and marketing campaign, we have successfully increased loans receivable by $46.0 million at September 30, 2005 from September 30, 2004 and increased deposits by $23.0 million during the same time period.
The new logo included several one-time charges that contributed to the $1.2 million increase in operating expenses for the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to the year ended September 30, 2004. The Federal Reserve raised interest
rates 200 basis points during the twelve month period ended September 30, 2005; the period of increasing interest rates have lowered our net interest rate

---

spread by 33 basis points to 2.64% for the year ended September 30, 2005 from 2.97% for the year ended September 30, 2004. Our net interest income
decreased $2.7 million for the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to the year ended September 30, 2004 as a result of the decrease in the Companys net interest rate spread. Provision for loan losses decreased $3.4 million to $0.5
million during the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to the $3.9 million for the year ended September 30, 2004.



Critical Accounting PoliciesIn preparing financial information, management is required to make significant estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses for the periods shown. The accounting principles followed by the Company and the methods of applying these principles conform with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States and general banking practices. Estimates and assumptions most significant to the Company are related primarily to allowance for loan losses and goodwill and are summarized in the following discussion and the
notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.



The Company
has established a systematic method of reviewing the credit quality of the loan portfolio in order to establish a sufficient allowance for losses on loans. The allowance for losses on loans is based on managements current judgments about the
credit quality of individual loans and segments of the loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is established through a provision for loan losses based on managements evaluation of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio, and
considers all known internal and external factors that affect loan collectability as of the reporting date. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans on which full collectability may not be reasonably assured, considers among other
matters, the estimated net realizable value or the fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, managements knowledge of inherent risks in the portfolio that are probable and reasonably
estimable, and other factors that warrant recognition in providing an appropriate loan loss allowance. Although we believe that we have established and maintained the allowance for loan losses at adequate levels, different assumptions used in
evaluating the adequacy of the allowance could result in material changes in the Companys consolidated financial condition and results of operations. The Companys policies and methodology for determining the allowance involve a high
degree of estimation and complexity and require subjective judgments about uncertain matters.



The Companys goodwill (the amount paid in excess of fair value of acquired net assets) is reviewed at least annually to ensure that there have been no events or circumstances resulting in an impairment of the
recorded amount of excess purchase price. Adverse changes in the economic environment, operations of acquired business units, or other factors could result in a decline in projected fair values. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying
amount, a loss would be recognized to reduce the carrying amount to implied fair value.



Management has discussed the development, selection and application of these critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations



The Company, in the normal course of business, makes commitments to buy or
sell assets or to incur or fund liabilities. Commitments include, but are not limited, to the origination, purchase, or sale of loans, the purchase of investment securities, fulfillment of commitments under letters-of-credit, extensions of credit on
home equity lines of credit and construction loans, and the commitment to fund withdrawals of savings accounts at maturity. A discussion of significant commitments under which the Company may be held contingently liable, including guarantee
arrangements, is included in Note 20  Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Commitments to the Consolidated Financial Statements.



The Company may also have liabilities under certain contractual agreements contingent upon occurrence of certain events. The following table presents, as
of September 30, 2005, the future payments on our significant contractual obligations.

Investment ActivitiesThe Companys investment portfolio, including FHLB stock,
and trading securities, consists of mortgage-backed securities, obligations of the United States Government and agencies thereof, municipal bonds, corporate bonds, interest-earning deposits in other institutions and equity investments. Over 75% of
the Companys investment portfolio is held in mortgage-backed securities; these securities are backed by pools of mortgages that can be composed of either fixed-rate mortgages or ARM loans. We invest in mortgage-backed securities to supplement
local single-family loan originations as well as to reduce interest rate risk exposure, because mortgage-backed securities are more liquid than mortgage loans. In the current, ongoing, low interest rate environment, mortgages with higher interest
rates are continuing to prepay resulting in large monthly principal payments on the Companys mortgage-backed securities. Investment balances have decreased $17.4 million during the year ended September 30, 2005 due primarily to $45.3
million in principal paydowns and maturities and the sale and call of $52.0 million in securities, which was partly offset by $83.0 million in securities purchased. As interest rates have begun to rise, and higher-yielding products have become
available, the Companys relatively lower-yielding investment portfolio has declined in market value, resulting in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $2.5 million at September 30, 2005 compared to a comprehensive loss of $0.7 million
at September 30, 2004. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is reported in the equity section of our Consolidated Financial Statements and is considered a temporary impairment due entirely to interest rate change; the Company has the
intent and ability to hold its investments until the fair market value of the portfolio recovers.



Loans receivable, netThe Companys net loan portfolio including loans held for sale, consists primarily of first mortgage loans
collateralized by single-family residential real estate, multifamily residential real estate, commercial real estate and agricultural real estate located in the Companys primary market area or in counties contiguous with the Companys
market area.



To reduce interest rate risk exposure, and
satisfy consumer demand for fixed-rate mortgage loans during the period of low interest rates, the Company has been focusing more on originating fixed-rate loans to sell individually into the secondary market. As interest rates on loans have
increased, the Company has experienced a reduction in the demand for fixed-rate mortgages during the year ended September 30, 2005, compared to the year ended September 30, 2004. During the year ended September 30, 2005, the Company
recognized a $1.1 million gain on the sale of $54.5 million of loans held for sale, compared to a $1.2 million gain on the sale of $64.6 million of loans held for sale during the year ended September 30, 2004.



The Companys net loan portfolio also includes commercial business loans
(i.e., crop production, equipment and inventory loans), and other consumer loans, including loans secured by automobiles and deposit accounts. The composition of the Companys loan portfolio began to change in 2001, due to acquisitions
of other banking institutions, to include a larger percentage of commercial loans; the Company intends to continue to increase the commercial loan portfolio through originations. During the year ended September 30, 2005, the Companys
commercial business loan portfolio increased approximately 40%.



Nonperforming Loans and Loan Loss ProvisionsThe allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on managements quarterly asset classification review and evaluation of the risk
inherent in the Companys loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of its loan activity. Such evaluation, which includes a review of loans on which full collection may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the
estimated value of collateral, cash flow analysis, historical loan loss experience, and other factors that warrant recognition in providing allowances.



A provision of $0.5 million was made during the year ended September 30, 2005. The Companys allowance for loan losses totaled $3.2 million, or
0.73% of total loans at September 30, 2005 compared to $3.8 million, or 0.96% of total loans, at September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.6 million. Charge offs, net of recoveries totaled $1.1 million or 0.25% of total loans, for the year
ended September 30, 2005. Total nonperforming loans decreased to $3.9 million at September 30, 2005 from $4.7 million at September 30, 2004, a decrease of $0.8 million. Based on presently available information, management believes
that the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2005 was appropriate. Changing economic and other conditions, as well as increased emphasis on commercial loan origination, may require future adjustments and increases to the allowance for
loan losses.



During the last five fiscal years, the Company
has completed separate acquisitions of four banks. The loans acquired as part of these acquisitions have contributed to the increase in the balance of nonperforming loans in the Companys portfolio; of the $3.9 million in nonperforming loans as
of September 30, 2005, $0.8 million, or 20.51% were loans acquired as part of the bank acquisitions. Nonperforming commercial loans have increased $0.2 million from portfolios acquired in bank acquisitions. We believe that the increase in
nonperforming commercial loans is a result of a lower quality of underwriting and collection efforts at the acquired institutions prior to the Companys acquisition of the institutions compared to the Companys underwriting and collection
efforts. At the acquisition dates, approximately $2.0 million of allowance was transferred. Since the acquisition dates, approximately $5.2 million in charge offs have been recorded relative to loans acquired in these acquisitions.

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when, in the judgment of management, the probability of collection
of interest is deemed to be insufficient to warrant further accrual. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is deducted from interest income and a corresponding specific interest reserve is established.
The Bank generally does not accrue interest on loans past due 90 days or more. Loans may be reinstated to accrual status when payments are made to bring the loan less than 90 days past due and, in the opinion of management, collection of the
remaining balance can be reasonably expected. Delinquent loans 90 days or more past due decreased $0.8 million or 17.02% to $3.9 million at September 30, 2005 from $4.7 million at September 30, 2004. The balance of interest income not
recognized by the Company on the non-accrual loans was $0.4 million at September 30, 2005 compared to $0.5 million at September 30, 2004. There was no interest income recognized on non-accrual loans during the periods.



Deposits and FHLB AdvancesDeposits are a significant
source of the Companys funds for lending and other investment purposes. In addition to deposits, the Company derives funds from FHLB advances, the amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, the sale or maturity of
investment securities, and operations. Scheduled loan principal repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows and loan prepayments are influenced significantly by general interest rates and market conditions.
Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds from other sources or on a longer-term basis to help manage interest rate risk and for general business purposes.



Historically, deposits have provided the Company with a stable source of
relatively low cost funding. The market for deposits is competitive, which had caused the Company to utilize primarily certificate accounts that are more responsive to market interest rates rather than passbook accounts. The Company offers a
traditional line of deposit products that currently includes checking, interest-bearing checking, savings, certificates of deposit, commercial checking and money market accounts. Total deposit balances by category were as follows:

Total deposits
increased $23.0 million or 4.68% during the year ended September 30, 2005. The increase was mainly due to the Company refocusing its efforts on attracting certificate accounts by offering more competitive interest rates and terms on those
accounts. The cost on average certificate accounts for the year ended September 30, 2005 was 3.00%, up 23 basis points from 2.77% for the year ended September 30, 2004.



FHLB advances are collateralized by the Banks stock in the FHLB, investment securities and a blanket lien on the
Banks mortgage portfolio. Such advances are made pursuant to different credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. The maximum amount that the FHLB will advance to member institutions, including the Bank,
for purposes other than meeting withdrawals, fluctuates from time to time in accordance with the policies of the FHLB. The maximum amount of FHLB advances to a member institution generally is reduced by borrowings from any other source. The Company
also relies upon FHLB advances as a source to fund assets. At September 30, 2005, FHLB advances totaled $148.6 million, with an average cost of 3.41% compared to $153.9 million, with an average cost of 3.05% at September 30, 2004. Based on
the current level of advances, asset size and available collateral under the FHLB programs, the Bank estimates that an additional $65.0 million of funding was available from FHLB advances at September 30, 2005.



Accrued expenses and other liabilitiesAccrued expenses
and other liabilities includes items such as the Companys accrual for income taxes, accounts payable, escrowed taxes and insurance and other miscellaneous obligations that may occur during the normal course of business. Accrued expenses and
other liabilities increased $4.0 million or 130.95% during the year ended September 30, 2005, to $7.0 million from $3.1 million at September 30, 2004. The increase was mainly due to a payable associated with the purchase of $2.4 million in
investment securities that were committed prior to fiscal year end but had a settlement date after fiscal year end.



Stockholders equityThe Companys book value per share was $11.28 at September 30, 2005 compared to $11.31 at
September 30, 2004. The Companys average capital ratio, or average capital to average assets, was 7.15% for the year ended September 30, 2005, compared to 7.11% for the year ended September 30, 2004. During fiscal
2005, retained earnings remained relatively constant; net income for fiscal 2005 was partially offset by dividends to stockholders and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss on securities.

Net interest incomeIn 2005, the Company launched an advertising campaign in our
market areas to increase both loans and deposits by offering more attractive products, rates and terms. Our net interest income decreased due to the flattening yield curve that resulted from continuing increases by the Federal Reserve in short
term interest rates. However, this decrease was partially offset by positive effects of our advertising campaign, which contributed to growth in the balances of both loans and deposits at favorable interest rates. Net interest income decreased $2.7
million for the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to the year ended September 30, 2004. The cost on average interest bearing liabilities, including deposits, increased 33 basis points while the yield on average interest earning assets
remained constant at 5.44% when comparing the year ended September 30, 2005 to the year ended September 30, 2004. The Companys net interest rate spread decreased to 2.64% for the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to 2.97%
for the year ended September 30, 2004. Net interest margin decreased to 2.55% for the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to 2.93% for the year ended September 30, 2004.



Non-interest incomeNon-interest income remained constant in the year ended September 30, 2005
compared to the year ended September 30, 2004. The increased portfolio balance of loans and deposits contributed to an increase in fees and service charges and a higher dividend was received on FHLB stock which increased other income. These
increases were offset by a decrease in net trading gains and gain on sale of branches. A decrease in the origination of loans held for sale and resulting decrease in the gain on sale of loans was offset by an increase in the gain on sale of
securities for the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to the year ended September 30, 2004.



Operating expenseThe Company hired a professional advertising company to assist in the design and marketing of a new logo for the Bank
during 2005. The new logo and marketing campaign included several one time charges which contributed to the $1.2 million increase in operating expenses for the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to the year ended September 30, 2004.
Professional fees increased for the year ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period last year due to increasing costs associated with new regulations.



Income taxesDuring 2005 the Company increased our investment in non-taxable securities, half of which
occurred during the last quarter. The increase in non-taxable securities resulted in a lower effective tax rate for the Company compared to prior years. During the fourth quarter of the year ended September 30, 2005, the Company recorded an
income tax benefit of $0.1 million.



The table below analyzes
net interest income by component and in terms of changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the changes in the related yields and rates for the year ended September 30, 2005, compared to the year ended
September 30, 2004.

Net interest incomeThe Company utilized low rate advances from the FHLB and sold
long-term fixed rate mortgages in the secondary mortgage market during 2004 to manage interest rate risks and control cost of funds as interest rates fluctuated. This strategy resulted in a $1.6 million increase in net interest income for the year
ended September 30, 2004 compared to the year ended September 30, 2003. The cost on average interest bearing liabilities decreased 60 basis points while the yield on average interest earning assets decreased 55 basis points when comparing
the year ended September 30, 2004 to the year ended September 30, 2003. The Companys net interest rate spread increased to 3.04% for the year ended September 30, 2004 compared to 2.98% for the year ended September 30, 2003.
Net interest margin increased to 2.96% for the year ended September 30, 2004 compared to 2.91% for the year ended September 30, 2003.



Provision for loan lossDuring the fourth quarter of the year ended September 30, 2004, events occurred relative to the financial
performance of certain borrowers and their properties collateralizing loans to the Company which had a significant effect on the results of operations of the Company for the quarter. During the quarter, a borrower with loans totaling approximately
$3,600,000 filed bankruptcy. Subsequent to the filing, it was determined that certain collateral would not be available for recovery by the Company. As a result of these and other factors, a provision for loan losses was recognized on the loans to
this borrower totaling approximately $1,200,000. Additionally, collateral pledged on loans of other borrowers was determined to not be of adequate value to provide for full loan repayment for varied reasons including deterioration of operations of
businesses occupying collateral properties, slow lot sales of developers, sales of lots by developers at prices less than those used in the appraisals of the collateral properties, borrower legal entanglements, bankruptcy losses and other reasons.
As a result of the evaluation of collateral values of these other borrowers, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of approximately $1,600,000 bringing the total provision for loan losses for the quarter to $2,750,000.



Other incomeIn addition to the decrease in gain on sale
of loans, the decrease in loan originations and deposits during the year ended September 30, 2004 compared to the year ended September 30, 2003, contributed to a decrease in income from fees and service charges. The decrease in the gain on
the sale of branches for the year ended September 30, 2004 compared to the year ended September 30, 2003 also contributed to the decrease in other income.



Operating expenseThe decrease in total operating expense was the result of managements ongoing
efforts to monitor expenses and increase efficiency and to decreased expenses as a result of closed branches. Compensation expense decreased by $0.9 million due in part to a decrease in commissions paid to loan personnel resulting from the decrease
in loan originations, as well as the recognition of $0.2 million in additional expense in 2003 related to a deferred compensation agreement entered into with a retiring officer of the Company during the year ended September 30, 2003. Due to the
growth of the Company during the last several years, we engaged a consulting firm during 2003 to assist us with new regulatory compliance issues that resulted in increased professional fees for the year ended September 30, 2003 compared to the
same period in 2004. Lower provisions for losses associated with the disposal of foreclosed real estate owned during 2004 resulted in a $0.2 million decrease in 2004 compared to 2003.



QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



General.    It is the objective of the Company to minimize, to the degree prudently possible, its
exposure to interest rate risk, while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. Interest rate spread is the difference between the Companys yield on its interest-earning assets and its cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Interest rate
risk is generally understood to be the sensitivity of the Companys earnings, net asset values, and stockholders equity to changes in market interest rates.



Changes in interest rates affect the Companys earnings. The effect on earnings of changes in interest rates generally
depends on how quickly the Companys yield on interest-earning assets and cost of interest-bearing liabilities react to the changes in market rates of interest. If the Companys cost of deposit accounts reacts more quickly to changes in
market interest rates than the yield on the Companys mortgage loans and other interest-earnings assets, then an increasing interest rate environment is likely to adversely affect the Companys earnings and a decreasing interest rate
environment is likely to favorably affect the Companys earnings. On the other hand, if the Companys yield on its mortgage loans and other interest-earnings assets reacts more quickly to changes in market interest rates than the
Companys cost of deposit accounts, then an increasing rate environment is likely to favorably affect the Companys earnings and a decreasing interest rate environment is likely to adversely affect the Companys earnings.



Net Portfolio Value.    The value of the
Companys loan and investment portfolio will change as interest rates change. Rising interest rates will generally decrease the Companys net portfolio value (NPV), while falling interest rates will generally increase the value
of that portfolio. The table below sets forth, quantitatively, as of September 30, 2005, the estimate of the projected changes in NPV in the event of a 100, 200, and 300 basis point instantaneous and permanent increase and a 100 and 200 basis
point instantaneous and permanent decrease in market interest rates. Due to the current low prevailing interest rate environment, the changes in NPV is not estimated for a decrease in interest rates of 300 basis points.

Computations of
prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are calculated by the OTS from data provided by the Company and are based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan repayments and deposit runoffs, and
should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate any actions the Company may undertake in response to changes in interest rates.



Management cannot predict future interest rates or their effect on the Companys NPV in the future. Certain
shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the computation of NPV. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in differing degrees to changes in
market interest rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate loans, which represent the Companys primary loan product, have features that restrict changes in interest rates during the initial term and over the remaining life of
the asset. In addition, the proportion of adjustable rate loans in the Companys portfolio could decrease in future periods due to refinancing activity if market rates decrease. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment
and early withdrawal levels could deviate significantly from those assumed in the table. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their adjustable-rate debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Pocahontas Bancorp, Inc.

Jonesboro, Arkansas



We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial
condition of Pocahontas Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended September 30, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.



We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



In our
opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended September 30, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

POCAHONTAS BANCORP, INC.



NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005, 2004, AND 2003



|1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|-- | ------------------------------------------



Organization and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pocahontas
Bancorp, Inc. (Bancorp), its wholly owned subsidiary, First Community Bank (the Bank), as well as the Banks subsidiaries, Southern Mortgage Corporation, P.F. Service, Inc. and Sun Realty, Inc., (collectively referred to
as the Company). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Bank operates 21 branches in north-eastern Arkansas and Tulsa County Oklahoma, as a federally chartered savings and loan.



Use of EstimatesThe preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.



Cash and Due From BanksFor the purpose of presentation in
the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as those amounts included in the statement of financial condition caption cash and due from banks. This includes cash on hand and amounts due from
depository institutions and highly-liquid investments having a maturity at acquisition of three months or less.



Trading SecuritiesEquity securities held principally for resale in the near term are classified as trading securities and recorded at
their fair values. Unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included in other income.



Securities Held-to-MaturityBonds, notes, and debentures for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity
are reported at cost, adjusted for the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts, which are recognized in income using the level-yield method over the assets remaining lives and adjusted for anticipated prepayments. Should other
than a temporary decline in the fair value of a security occur, the carrying value of such security would be written down to current market value by a charge to operations. As of September 30, 2005, no securities were determined to have other
than a temporary decline in fair value below cost. For a debt security transferred into the held-to-maturity category from the available-for-sale category, the unrealized holding gain or loss at the date of the transfer is included in other
comprehensive income and is amortized over the remaining life of the security as an adjustment of yield in a manner consistent with the amortization of any premium or discount.



Securities Available-for-SaleAvailable-for-sale securities consist of securities that the Company
intends to hold for an indefinite period of time and are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, on available-for-sale securities are reported as accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of
stockholders equity, until realized. Gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined using the specific-identification method. Declines in the fair value of individual available-for-sale securities below their cost
that are other than temporary would result in a write-down of the individual security to its fair value. The related write-down would be included in earnings as a realized loss. As of September 30, 2005, no securities were determined to have
other than a temporary decline in fair value below cost.



Loans ReceivableLoans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding principal adjusted for any charge offs, the
allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.



Discounts and premiums on purchased residential real estate loans are amortized to income using the interest method over the remaining period to
contractual maturity, adjusted for anticipated prepayments. Discounts and premiums on purchased consumer loans are recognized over the expected lives of the loans using methods that approximate the interest method. Loan origination fees and certain
direct origination costs are capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield of the related loan.



The accrual of interest on impaired loans is discontinued when, in managements opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet contractual principal or
interest obligations or where interest or principal is 90 days or more past due. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, accrual of interest ceases and, in general, uncollected past due interest (including interest applicable to prior reporting
periods, if any) is reversed and charged against current income. Therefore, interest income is not recognized unless the financial condition or payment record of the borrower warrants the recognition of interest income. Interest on loans that have
been restructured is generally accrued according to the renegotiated terms.



23



---

Loans Receivable Held for SaleLoans receivable, held for sale are carried at the
lower of cost or market, which is computed by the aggregate method (unrealized losses are offset by unrealized gains). Gains or losses on loan sales are recognized at the time of sale and are determined by the difference between net sales proceeds
and the unpaid principal balance of loans sold, adjusted for unamortized discount points and fees collected from borrowers, deferred origination costs and amounts allocated to retained servicing rights.



Allowance for Loan LossesThe allowance for loan losses is
a valuation allowance to provide for incurred but not yet realized losses. The Company reviews its loans for impairment on a quarterly basis. Impairment is determined by assessing the probability that the borrower will not be able to fulfill the
contractual terms of the agreement. If a loan is determined to be impaired, the amount of the impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate or by use of the
observable market price of the loan or fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Throughout the year management estimates the level of probable losses to determine whether the allowance for loan losses is appropriate considering
the estimated losses existing in the portfolio. Based on these estimates, an amount is charged to the provision for loan losses and credited to the allowance for loan losses in order to adjust the allowance to a level determined by management to be
appropriate relative to losses. The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income (provisions) and decreased by charge offs, net of recoveries. Loans are charged off by reducing the loan balance and the allowance in the period in which
the loans are deemed uncollectible in whole or in part.



Managements periodic evaluation of the appropriateness of the allowance is based on the Companys past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers
ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions.



Homogeneous loans are those that are considered to have common characteristics that provide for evaluation on an aggregate or pool basis. The Company
considers the characteristics of (1) one-to-four family residential first mortgage loans; (2) automobile loans; and (3) consumer and home improvement loans to permit consideration of the appropriateness of the allowance for losses of
each group of loans on a pool basis. The primary methodology used to determine the appropriateness of the allowance for losses includes segregating certain specific, poorly performing loans based on their performance characteristics from the pools
of loans as to type and then applying a loss factor to the remaining pool balance based on several factors including classification of the loans as to grade, past loss experience, inherent risks, economic conditions in the primary market areas and
other factors which usually are beyond the control of the Company. Those segregated specific loans are evaluated using the present value of future cash flows, usually determined by estimating the fair value of the loans collateral reduced by
any cost of selling and discounted at the loans effective interest rate if the estimated time to receipt of monies is more than three months.



Non-homogeneous loans are those loans that can be included in a particular loan type, such as commercial loans and multi-family and commercial first
mortgage loans, but which differ in other characteristics to the extent that valuation on a pool basis is not valid. After segregating specific, poorly performing loans and applying the methodology as noted in the preceding paragraph for such
specific loans, the remaining loans are evaluated based on payment experience, known difficulties in the borrowers business or geographic area, loss experience, inherent risks and other factors usually beyond the control of the Company. These loans
are then graded and a factor, based on experience, is applied to estimate the probable loss.



Estimates of the probability of loan losses involve an exercise of judgment. While it is possible that in the near term the Company may sustain losses which are substantial in relation to the allowance for loan
losses, it is the judgment of management that the allowance for loan losses reflected in the consolidated statements of financial condition is appropriate considering the estimated probable losses in the portfolio.



ServicingServicing assets are recognized as separate
assets when rights are acquired through purchase or through sale of financial assets. Capitalized servicing rights are reported in other assets and are amortized into noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of the estimated future
net servicing income of the underlying financial assets. Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights by predominant
characteristics, such as interest rates and terms. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Impairment is recognized
through a valuation allowance for an individual stratum, to the extent that fair value is less than the capitalized amount for the stratum.



Interest Rate RiskThe Companys asset base is exposed to risk including the risk resulting from changes in interest rates and
changes in the timing of cash flows. The Company monitors the effect of such risks by considering the mismatch of the maturities of its assets and liabilities in the current interest rate environment and the sensitivity of assets and liabilities to
changes in interest rates. The Companys management has considered the effect of significant increases and decreases in interest rates and believes such changes, if they occurred, would be manageable and would not affect the ability of the
Company



24



---

to hold its assets as planned. However, the Company is exposed to significant market risk in the event of significant and prolonged interest rate changes.



Foreclosed Real EstateReal estate
properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value, less estimated costs to sell, at the date of foreclosure establishing a new cost basis. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by
management and the real estate is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenues and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in non-interest expenses.



Premises and EquipmentLand is carried at cost. Buildings
and furniture, fixtures, and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for financial statement purposes is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 3 to 40
years.



Core Deposit PremiumsCore deposit
premiums paid are being amortized over ten years which approximates the estimated life of the purchased deposits. The carrying value of core deposit premiums is periodically evaluated to estimate the remaining periods of benefit. If these periods of
benefits are determined to be less than the remaining amortizable life, an adjustment to reflect such shorter life will be made.



GoodwillGoodwill is tested periodically for impairment and written down to fair value as necessary. As of April 1, 2005 and 2004,
the Company performed its annual impairment test and concluded there was no impairment of the carrying value of the Companys goodwill. Absent any impairment indicators, the Company expects to perform its next impairment test as of
April 1, 2006.



Income TaxesDeferred
tax assets and liabilities are recorded for temporary differences between the carrying value and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Such amounts are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax
assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.



Stock CompensationAt September 30, 2005, the Company
has two stock-based employee compensation plans, which are more fully described in Note 22. The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25) in accounting for its stock option plans as
allowed under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is
recorded. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined at the fair value on the grant dates for awards under those plans consistent with the methods of SFAS No. 123, the Companys pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per
share would have been as follows:

In determining the
above pro forma disclosure, the fair value of options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: expected volatility37%, expected life of grant
 6.5 years, risk free interest rate 5.25%, and expected dividend rate of 2.5%.



Recently Adopted or Issued Accounting StandardsIn March 2004 the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF Issue 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary
Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments (EITF 03-1). EITF 03-1 indicates that an investor must have the intent and ability to hold an investment until a forecasted recovery of the fair value up to or beyond the cost of
the investment in order to determine that any impairment is temporary. If the investor does not have the intent and ability to hold the investment until a forecasted recovery, then an other-than-temporary impairment must be recorded. The consensus
by the EITF is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2004. However, the guidance contained in paragraphs 10-20 of EITF 03-1 was delayed by FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF Issue 03-1-1,

---

Effective Date of Paragraphs 10-20 of EIFP Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain
Investments, posted September 30, 2004.



In
November 2005, FSP FAS 115-1 and FAS 124-1 The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments was issued. The FSP addressed the determination as to when an investment is considered impaired, whether
that impairment is other-than-temporary, and the measurement of an impairment loss. It also included accounting considerations subsequent to the recognition of an other-than-temporary impairment and requires certain disclosures about unrealized
losses that have not been recognized as other-than-temporary impairments. The guidance of the FSP amended FASB Statements No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, No. 124, Accounting for Certain
Investments Held by Non-for-Profit Organizations, and APB Opinion No 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. The FSP nullified certain requirements of Issue 03-1 and supersedes EITF Topic No. D-44,
Recognition of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment upon the Planned Sale of a Security Whose Cost Exceeds Fair Value. The FSP gives guidance regarding how to determine whether an investment is impaired, if impaired how to evaluate
whether the impairment is other-than-temporary, and proper accounting and disclosures for the investments. The Guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005; earlier application is permitted. The adoption of EITF
03-1 did not have an effect on net income or stockholders equity.



In December 2004 the FASB issued Statement Number 123 (revised 2004) (FAS 123 (R)), Share-Based Payments. FAS 123 (R) requires all entities to recognize compensation expense in an amount equal to the fair value of
share-based payments such as stock options granted to employees. As of October 1, 2005, the Company adopted FAS 123(R) using the modified prospective method. Under this method, the Company is required to record compensation expense (as previous
awards continue to vest) for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption. As of October 31, 2005, the Companys options were fully vested. Accordingly, the adoption of FAS 123
(R) did not have an affect on the Companys consolidated financial statements.



ReclassificationsCertain 2003 and 2004 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2005 presentations.



|2. | ACQUISITIONS
|-- | ------------



On April 30, 2003, the Company completed the acquisition of Marked Tree Bancshares (Marked Tree) and its bank subsidiary, Marked Tree
Bank, in a stock transaction valued at approximately $3.2 million with the Company issuing 278,543 shares of stock. At April 30, 2003, Marked Tree had total assets of $32.6 million, net loans receivable of $11.8 million, of which $3.5 million
were classified as commercial real estate loans and $3.3 million classified as non-real estate loans. A core deposit intangible asset of $0.4 million and no goodwill was recognized related to the acquisition. The core deposit intangible asset is
estimated to have a useful life of 10 years.



The following
unaudited pro forma information is being provided for the business acquisitions made during the year ended September 30, 2003, as though the Company made the acquisitions at the beginning of the year.

|3. | FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
|-- | ------------------------------------



The estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a
current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.



The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments at September 30, 2005 and 2004, were as follows (items which are not
financial instruments are not included):

For purposes of the
above disclosures of estimated fair value, the following assumptions were used. The estimated fair value for cash and due from banks, cash surrender value of life insurance, accrued interest receivable, and Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)
stock is considered to approximate cost. The estimated fair values for securities are based on quoted market values for the individual securities or for equivalent securities. The fair value for loans is estimated by discounting the future cash
flows using the current rates the Company would charge for similar such loans at the applicable date. The estimated fair value for demand and savings deposits is based on the amount for which they could be settled on demand. The estimated fair
values for time deposits, FHLB advances are based on estimates of the rate the Company would pay on such deposits and borrowed funds at the applicable date, applied for the time period until maturity. The estimated fair values for other financial
instruments approximate cost and are not considered significant to this presentation. Fair values for the Companys off-balance-sheet instruments, which consist of lending commitments and standby and commercial letters of credit, are based on
fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties credit standing. Management believes that the fair value of these off-balance-sheet instruments is not
significant.

Management of the
Company anticipates that the market values of its investments which have unrealized losses for 12 months or longer at September 30, 2005, will increase to at least the cost of the investment to the Company. The investments with indicated losses
above include debt securities whose market values have declined due to interest rate fluctuations and equity securities whose decline appears to be due to normal market factors including the issuers financial performance. In determining that
the investment is not other-than-temporarily impaired the Company considered reports of financial specialists and the volatility of the investments fair value.



U.S. Government Obligations.The unrealized losses on the Companys investments in U.S.
Treasury obligations and direct obligations of U.S. government agencies were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of
the investment. Because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at
September 30, 2005.



Federal Agency Mortgage-Backed
Securities.    The unrealized losses on the Companys investment in federal agency mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate increases. The Company purchased those investment securities at a premium
relative to their face amount, and the contractual cash flows of those investments are guaranteed by an agency of the U.S. government. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of
the Companys investment. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a recovery of fair value,
which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2005.



Municipal Bonds.    The unrealized losses on the Companys investments in municipal bonds were caused by interest rate
increases. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company has the ability and intent to hold those investments until a
recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2005.



Mutual Fund.The unrealized loss on the Companys investment in the CRA Mutual Fund was caused by interest rate
increases. The composition of the Fund includes Asset Backed Securities/CMOs, Targeted Mortgage-backed Securities, FNMA, Taxable Municipal Bonds, Money markets, and project loans. Because the company has the ability and intent to hold this
investment until a recovery of fair value, the Company does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2005.

The Company
originates adjustable rate mortgage loans to hold for investment. The Company also originates 15 year, 20 year and 30 year fixed-rate mortgage loans and sells substantially all new originations of such loans to outside investors. Such loans are
typically originated for sale. These loans are typically held for sale only a short time, and were approximately $3.1 million and $1.5 million as of September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Normally the short time between origination and sale
does not provide for significant differences between cost and market values.



The Company is not committed to lend additional funds to debtors whose loans have been modified.



The Company grants real estate, commercial, consumer and agricultural real estate loans, primarily in north-eastern Arkansas and Tulsa County Oklahoma.
Substantially all loans are collateralized by real estate or consumer assets.

|13. | DEFERRED COMPENSATION
|--- | ---------------------



The Company has funded and unfunded deferred compensation agreements with a former executive and non-officer members of the Board of Directors. The plans
limit the ability of the executive to compete with the Company and require that the directors continue to serve for a specified period of time. The amount of expense related to such plans for the years ended September 30, 2005, 2004, and 2003,
was approximately $14,000, $13,000, and $48,000, respectively. During the years ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, an additional expense of $1,600 and $3,000, respectively, was incurred relating to separation agreements with officers. As of
September 30, 2005 and 2004, approximately $302,000, and $447,000, respectively was payable under the remaining agreements.



On March 2, 1999, the Company, the Bank, and an executive entered into an Employment Separation Agreement and Release (the Agreement).
The Agreement provides, among other things, for the payment by the Company to the executive of $2,750,000, in installments of not less than $150,000 annually, with the entire unpaid amount due upon the executives death. The unpaid balance,
including accrued interest, was approximately $1,875,000 and $1,983,000 at September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



|14. | RETIREMENT PLAN AND EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN
|--- | -------------------------------------------------



The Company has a defined contribution retirement plan. The plan covers all employees who have accumulated one year with 1,000 hours of service in each
year. A flat percentage rate, selected by discretion of the Board of Directors, is applied to the base salary of each eligible employee. The Company made no contributions to the plan for the years ended September 30, 2005, 2004 and 2003.



The Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan
(ESOP) on March 31, 1998. In 2003, the ESOP established a $2.0 million line of credit with the Company that was to be used to purchase additional shares of Company stock. In 2004, the ESOP established a second $2.0 million line of
credit with the Company that was to be used to purchase additional shares of Company stock. Both loans were collateralized by the shares that were purchased with the proceeds of the loan; as of September 30, 2004, the ESOP owed $0.3 million on
the first line of credit and $1.8 million on the second line of credit.

During October 2004, the ESOP established a third line of credit for $3.1 million with the Company to be
used to payoff the outstanding balances of $0.3 million on the first line of credit and the $1.8 million on the second line of credit and purchase up to $1.0 million in additional shares of Company stock on or before December 31, 2005. The loan
is collateralized by shares that were purchased with the proceeds of the loans; as of September 30, 2005, the ESOP had drawn $0.5 million of the $1.0 million available to draw by December 31, 2005 and owed $2.1 million on the line of
credit. As the loan is repaid, ESOP shares will be allocated to participants of the ESOP and are available for release to the participants subject to the vesting provisions of the ESOP. The Company contributed $503,605, $717,636, and $799,113,
respectively, to the ESOP in years ended September 30, 2005, 2004, and 2003.



The Company also has a supplemental retirement plan for certain executive officers. The plan requires that a set amount be deposited into a trust each year until the executive officers reach 60 years of age. The
amount of expense related to such plans was approximately $122,000, for each of the years ended September 30, 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.



|15. | INCOME TAXES
|--- | ------------



Bancorp and its subsidiaries file consolidated federal income tax returns on a fiscal year basis. During the year ended September 30, 1997, new
legislation was enacted which provides for the recapture into taxable income of certain amounts previously deducted as additions to the bad debt reserves for income tax purposes. The Company began changing its method of determining bad debt reserves
for tax purposes following the year ended September 30, 1996. The amounts to be recaptured for income tax reporting purposes are considered by the Company in the determination of the net deferred tax liability.



Income tax provision (benefit) for the years ended September 30 is
summarized as follows:



|         |  |      |           |      |   |            |      |  |   |

The net deferred tax
amount, which is included in other assets (liabilities), consisted of the following:

The Company provides
for the recognition of a deferred tax asset or liability for the future tax consequences of differences in carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Specifically exempted from this provision are bad debt reserves for tax purposes of
U.S. savings and loan associations in the associations base year, as defined. Base year reserves total approximately $3,600,000 at September 30, 2005. Consequently, a deferred tax liability of approximately $1,378,000 related to such
reserves is not provided for in the statement of financial condition at September 30, 2005.



|16. | REGULATORY MATTERS
|--- | ------------------



The Bank is 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 Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Banks assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory
accounting practices. The Banks 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 Bank to maintain minimum amounts and
ratios (set forth in the table below) of tangible and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to adjusted total assets (as defined), and of total capital (as defined) to risk weighted assets (as defined). Management believes, as of
September 30, 2004, that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.



As of September 30, 2005 and 2004, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework
for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total, tangible, and core capital ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management
believes have changed the institutions category.



The
Banks actual capital amounts (in thousands) and ratios are also presented in the table:

|17. | RETAINED EARNINGS
|--- | -----------------



The Bank may not declare or pay cash dividends on its shares of common stock if the effect thereof would cause the Banks stockholders equity
to be reduced below applicable regulatory capital maintenance requirements for insured institutions. This requirement effectively limits the dividend paying ability of the Company in that the Company must maintain an investment in equity of the Bank
sufficient to enable the Bank to meet its requirements as noted above. Required capital amounts are shown in Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements. Liquidation account balances are not maintained because of the cost of maintenance and the
remote likelihood of complete liquidation. Additionally, the Bank is limited to distributions it may make to Bancorp without OTS approval if the distribution would cause the total distributions to exceed the Banks net income for the year to
date plus the Banks net income (less distributions) for the preceding two years. Bancorp may use assets other than its investment in the Bank as a source of dividends.



|18. | EARNINGS PER SHARE
|--- | ------------------



The earnings per share amounts were computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. In accordance with
Statement of Position No. 93-6, Employers Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, shares owned by the Companys Employee Stock Ownership Plan that have
not been committed to be released are not considered to be outstanding for the purpose of computing earnings per share.



The weighted average numbers of shares used in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation are set out in the table below:



|                                           |  |                         |  |           |  |

|19. | CONTINGENCIES
|--- | -------------



The Company is a defendant in certain claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after
consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and subsidiaries.



|20. | OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND COMMITMENTS
|--- | ----------------------------------------------



The Company, in the normal course of business, makes commitments to buy or sell assets or to incur or fund liabilities. Commitments include, but are not
limited to the origination, purchase, or sale of loans, the purchase of investment securities, fulfillment of commitments under letters-of-credit, extensions of credit on home equity lines of credit and construction loans, and the commitment to fund
withdrawals of savings accounts at maturity.



At
September 30, 2005, the Companys off-balance sheet arrangements principally included lending commitments, which are described below. At September 30, 2005, the Company had no interests in non-consolidated special purpose
entities. At September 30, 2005, commitments included:



Total approved loan origination commitments outstanding were $13.3 million, with $5.0 million in loans committed to sell.



Rate lock agreements with customers of $5.0 million, all of which have been locked with an investor.



Undisbursed balances of construction loans of $7.5 million.



Total unused lines of credit of $21.1 million.



Outstanding letters of credit of $0.6 million.



Total certificates of deposit scheduled to
mature in one year or less of $176.9 million.



Total unfunded commitments to originate loans for sale and the related commitments to sell of $5.0 million meet the definition of a derivative financial instrument; the related asset and liability are considered immaterial at
September 30, 2005.



37



---

Based on historical experience, management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will
remain with the Company. The Company anticipates that it will continue to have sufficient funds, through repayments, deposits and borrowings, to meet its current commitments.



The Companys exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for
commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees written is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.



Unless noted otherwise, the Company does not require collateral or other security to support such financial instruments with credit risk.



Commitments to Extend Credit and Financial GuaranteesCommitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being
drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customers creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the
Company upon extension of credit, is based on managements credit evaluation of the counterparty.



Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk
involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company holds marketable securities as collateral supporting these commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.



The Company has not incurred any losses on its commitments in
any of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2005.



|21. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
|--- | --------------------------



In the normal course of business, the Company has made loans to its directors, officers, and their related business interests. In the opinion of
management, related party loans are made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated persons and do not involve more than the normal risk of
collectability. The aggregate dollar amount of loans outstanding to directors, officers, and their related business interests total approximately $13,110,829, and $8,202,890 at September 30, 2005, and 2004, respectively. During the year ended
September 30, 2005, total principal additions were $11,565,398 and total principal payments were $6,657,459.



Deposits from related parties held by the Company at September 30, 2005, and 2004, amounted to $4,823,108 and $5,575,546, respectively.



|22. | RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD PROGRAMS AND STOCK OPTION PLANS
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------



1998 Stock Option PlanThe Companys stockholders adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (SOP) on October 23, 1998.
The SOP provides for a committee of the Companys Board of Directors to award any one or a combination of incentive stock options, non-statutory or compensatory stock options, limited rights, dividend equivalent rights and reload options,
representing up to 357,075 shares of the Companys stock. The options will vest in equal amounts over five years beginning one year from the date of grant. Options granted vest immediately in the event of retirement, disability, or death and
are generally exercisable for a three year period following such event. Outstanding stock options expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant. Under the SOP, options have been granted to directors and key employees of the Company. The
exercise price in each case equals the fair market value of the Companys stock at the date of grant. The Company granted 350,000 options on October 23, 1998, which have an exercise price of $9.00 per share, the fair value of the stock on
that date. The weighted average remaining contractual life of the options as of September 30, 2005, is 3.1 years.



Stock Options Assumed in AcquisitionDuring the year ended September 30, 2002, the Company completed its acquisition of North
Arkansas Bancshares, Inc. The Company assumed 30,970 in stock options granted to employees and directors of North Arkansas Bancshares, Inc. related to such acquisition. All options granted to non-employee directors shall expire one year after the
non-employee director ceases to maintain continuous service.

1998 Recognition
PlanThe 1998 Recognition and Retention Plan (RRP) provides for a committee of the Companys Board of Directors to award restricted stock to key officers as well as non-employee directors. The RRP authorizes the Company
to grant up to 142,830 shares of the Companys common stock. The Committee granted 142,830 shares to key officers and non-employee directors on October 23, 1998.



Compensation expense was recognized based on the fair market value of the shares on the grant date of $9.00 over the vesting
period. The shares vested equally over a five year period with the first vesting date of January 3, 2000. All expense associated with this plan has been recognized.
