                         PITTSBURGH HOME FINANCIAL CORP.
              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of
        Pittsburgh Home Financial Corp. (the "Company") have been prepared in
        accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not
        include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
        accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
        However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of
        normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,
        necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.

        The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31,
        1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
        the year ending September 30, 1998. The unaudited consolidated financial
        statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the
        audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
        September 30, 1997.


Note 2 - Business

        The Company's Bank subsidiary, Pittsburgh Home Savings Bank (the
        "Bank"), is a state chartered stock savings bank primarily engaged in
        attracting retail deposits from the general public and using such
        deposits to originate loans (primarily single-family residential loans.)
        The Bank conducts business from eight offices in Allegheny and Butler
        counties of western Pennsylvania and primarily lends in this geographic
        area. The Bank is subject to competition from other financial
        institutions and other companies which provide financial services. The
        Bank is subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies
        and undergoes periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

        The Company's trust subsidiary, Pittsburgh Home Capital Trust I (the
        "Trust") was formed to issue $11.5 million of 8.56% Cumulative Trust
        Preferred Securities. These securities represent undivided beneficial
        interests in Pittsburgh Home Capital Trust I. The Trust purchased junior
        subordinated deferrable interest debentures which were issued by the
        Company.

Note 3 - Principles of consolidation

        The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pittsburgh
        Home Financial Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Pittsburgh Home
        Savings Bank and Pittsburgh

        Home Capital Trust I. All significant intercompany balances and
        transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 4 - Conversion

        The Company is a Pennsylvania corporation which is the holding company
        for the Bank. The Company was organized by the Bank for the purpose of
        acquiring all of the capital stock of the Bank in connection with its
        conversion from a mutual stock organization to the stock holding company
        form which was completed on April 1, 1996 (the "Conversion").

        In the Conversion, 2,182,125 shares of common stock were sold at a
        subscription price of $10.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of
        approximately $21.0 million. In exchange for 50% of the net conversion
        proceeds ($10.5 million), the Company acquired 100% of the stock of the
        Bank and retained the remaining $10.5 million at the holding company
        level.

Note 5 - Earnings per share

        Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of
        common stock. In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
        issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share". Statement 128 replaced
        the calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share with
        basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share,
        basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options and
        unvested stock grants. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the
        previously reported fully diluted earnings per share. Earnings per share
        amounts for all periods have been presented, and where appropriate,
        restated to conform to the Statement 128 requirements.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per

        In accordance with Statement 128, unreleased shares held by the Employee
        Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) (144,318 and 157,113 shares at March 31,
        1998 and 1997 respectively) and unvested shares held for the Recognition
        and Retention Plan (RRP) (66,920 and 87,825 shares at March 31, 1998 and
        1997, respectively) have been excluded from basic average shares
        outstanding. Such shares are included in basic average shares
        outstanding as they are released for allocation (ESOP) or become vested
        (RRP). Unvested RRP shares and stock options are included in diluted
        average shares outstanding based upon the treasury stock method.

Note 6 - Return of Capital

        On December 19, 1997, the Company paid a special one-time cash
        distribution of $2.50 per share. The Company obtained a private letter
        ruling from the Internal Revenue Service which allowed them to treat
        $2.43 per share of this distribution as a return of capital. The return
        of capital was reflected as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital in
        the Company's financial statements. For the stockholders, the return of
        capital is treated


                                       9



<PAGE>   10
        as a reduction in the cost basis of the shares and is not subject to
        income taxes until the shares are sold. The remaining $.07 per share
        was treated as an ordinary dividend. The total distribution paid was
        $4,923,423 on 1,969,369 shares of stock.


Note 7 - Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)

        In connection with the Conversion, the Company established an ESOP for
        the benefit of eligible employees. The ESOP Trust borrowed $1.9 million
        from the Company and purchased 174,570 shares, equal to 8% of the total
        number of shares issued in the Conversion. The Company accounts for its
        ESOP in accordance with SOP 93-6, "Employers Accounting for Employee
        Stock Ownership Plans," which requires the Company to recognize
        compensation expense equal to the fair value of the ESOP shares during
        the periods in which they become committed to be released. To the extent
        that the fair value of ESOP shares differs from the cost of such shares,
        this differential will be charged or credited to equity. Management
        expects the recorded amount of expense to fluctuate as continuing
        adjustments are made to reflect changes in the fair value of the ESOP
        shares. Employers with internally leveraged ESOPs, such as the Company,
        will not report the loan receivable from the ESOP as an asset and will
        not report the ESOP debt from the employer as a liability.

Note 8 - Stock Option Plan

        On October 15, 1996, the Stock Option Plan was approved by the Company's
        stockholders. A total of 218,212 shares of common stock may be issued
        pursuant to the Stock Option Plan and 195,511 shares were awarded as of
        March 31, 1998. These options are subject to vesting provisions as well
        as other provisions of the Stock Option Plan. No options have been
        exercised through March 31, 1998.

Note 9 - Recognition and Retention Plan and Trust (RRP)

        On October 15, 1996, the RRP was approved by the Company's stockholders.
        A total of 87,285 shares of common stock are available for awards
        pursuant to the RRP and 86,990 shares were awarded as of March 31, 1998.
        Awards will vest in equal installments over a five year period, with the
        first installment vesting on the first anniversary date of the grant and
        each additional installment vesting on the four subsequent anniversaries
        of such date, subject to various requirements as more fully described in
        the plan documents. Compensation cost related to RRP shares earned
        during the six month period ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 were $106,320
        and $96,362 respectively.

        The Company has purchased on the open market shares of common stock to
        fully fund the RRP. The cost of unearned RRP shares is recorded as a
        reduction of stockholders' equity.

Note 10 - Recent Accounting and Regulatory Developments

        The Financial Accounting Standards Board released Statement of Financial
        Accounting Standard Number 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing
        of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" ("SFAS 125") in
        June 1996. SFAS 125 is effective for transfers and servicing of
        financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after
        December 31, 1996 and is to be applied prospectively. SFAS 125
        establishes standards for resolving issues related to the circumstances
        under which the transfer of financial assets should be considered as
        sales of all or part of the assets or as secured borrowings and about
        when a liability should be considered extinguished. The Company does not
        anticipate any material impact on statements of income and financial
        condition from the adoption of this statement.

        As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement 130, Reporting
        Comprehensive Income. Statement 130 establishes new rules for the
        reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components;
        however, the adoption of this Statement had no impact on the Company's
        net income or shareholders' equity. Statement 130 requires unrealized
        gains or losses on the Company's available-for-sale securities, which
        prior to adoption were reported separately in shareholders' equity to be
        included in other comprehensive income. Prior year financial statements
        have been reclassified to conform to the requirements of Statement 130.

        During the six months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, total comprehensive
        income amounted to $1,251,031 and $770,550, respectively.

Note 11 -Capital Trust I

        In January 1998, the Company formed a trust subsidiary, Pittsburgh Home
        Capital Trust I ("the Trust"), and on January 30, 1998, the Trust sold
        $11.5 million of 8.56% Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities to the
        public. The Preferred Securities represent undivided beneficial
        interests in the Trust. The Trust used the proceeds from the sale of the
        preferred securities to purchase junior subordinated deferrable interest
        debentures which were issued by the Company. The Company will use the
        proceeds for general corporate purposes. The subordinated debentures are
        redeemable at anytime after January 30, 2003 by the Company. The
        subordinated debentures will mature on January 30, 2028.

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

FINANCIAL CONDITION

        At March 31, 1998, the Company's total assets amounted to $338.3 million
compared with $273.3 million at September 30, 1997, an increase of 23.8%. Cash
and interest-bearing deposits increased $2.9 million, or 55.8%, to $8.1 million
at March 31, 1998, compared to $5.2 million at September 30, 1997. Investment
securities trading increased $1.2 million, or 130.1% from $956,000 at September
30, 1997 to $2.2 million at March 31, 1998. During fiscal 1997, the Company
implemented a wholesale leveraging strategy designed to take advantage of its
excess capital. The Company determined to invest in mortgage-backed securities
and U.S. government and agency obligations, at a positive interest rate spread
over the funding obligation, which has been Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB")
advances. Investments and mortgage-backed securities (held to maturity and
available for sale) increased by $36.3 million, or 48.8%, from $74.4 million at
September 30, 1997. During the period ended March 31, 1998, the Company
purchased $51.4 million in investments and mortgage-backed securities. Loans
receivable, net of allowance, increased $20.0 million, or 11.0%, to $201.3
million at March 31, 1998 compared to $181.3 million at September 30, 1997. The
growth is primarily attributable to increases in residential mortgage loans.

        Total liabilities increased by $68.7 million, or 28.1%, to $313.2
million at March 31, 1998 compared to $244.5 million at September 30, 1997. The
Company's trust subsidiary, Pittsburgh Home Capital Trust I, sold $11.5 million
of 8.56% Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities on January 30, 1998. The
guaranteed preferred beneficial interest in subordinated debt totaled $11.5
million at March 31, 1998. Deposits increased by $7.2 million, or 5.2% to $145.9
million at March 31, 1998 compared to $138.7 million at September 30, 1997. The
increase in deposits is attributable, in part, to the Bank's new supermarket
branch located in the Pittsburgh area. Advances from the FHLB increased $48.6
million or 47.8% to $150.3 million at March 31, 1998 compared to $101.7 million
at September 30, 1997, as the Company increased its FHLB advances to increase
liquidity and used those funds to reinvest in assets at higher yields.

        Total stockholders' equity decreased $3.7 million or 12.8% to $25.1
million at March 31, 1998 compared to $28.8 million at September 30, 1997. The
decrease was primarily attributable to a special return of capital dividend
totaling $4.9 million that the Company paid on December 19, 1997, which was
partially offset by net income during the period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        GENERAL. The Company reported net income of $510,000 and $1.1million for
the three and six months ended March 31, 1998, respectively, compared to
$423,000 and $866,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 1997. Basic
and diluted earnings per share were $.29 and $.28, respectively, for the quarter
ended March 31, 1998, compared to $.24 and $.23, respectively, for the same
quarter of 1997. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six month period
were $.62 and $.59, respectively, compared to $.46 and $.45, respectively, for
the same period of 1997. The trading activity gains had an after tax impact on
both the basic and diluted calculations of $.02 and $.07 per share,
respectively, for the quarter and six months ended March 31, 1998. The $87,000,
or 20.6% increase and $216,000 or 24.9% increase in net income for the three and
six months ended March 31, 1998, respectively, compared to the same periods in
1997, is primarily attributable to the increase in net interest income before
provision for loan losses of $300,000 or 16.8% for the quarter and $504,000 or
14.7% for the six month period. Included in interest expense for the 1998
periods is $172,000 related to the $11.5 million of trust preferred securities
that the Company's trust subsidiary, Pittsburgh Home Capital Trust I, sold on
January 30, 1998. The Company also continued to utilize its trading account
strategy and recognized pre-tax net gains of $56,000 for the quarter and
$187,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1998. There were no trading gains
for the same periods in 1997. Noninterest income (excluding the trading gains)
also increased $34,000 or 38.9% for the quarter and $120,000 or 60.3% for the
six month period. These increases were partially offset by an increase in the
provision for loan losses of $45,000 or 60.0% for the quarter and $90,000 or
60.0% for the six month period, an increase in noninterest expense of $186,000
or 15.9% for the quarter and $384,000 or 17.8% for the six month period, and an
increase in the provision for income taxes of $71,000 or 34.3% for the quarter
and $121,000 or 26.9% for the six month period.

        INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased $1.7 million or 39.5% and
$3.0 million or 36.1% for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998,
respectively, compared to the same periods in 1997. The increase was due to the
increase in investment and loan origination activity. The average balance of
investment and mortgage-backed securities totaled $99.6 million and $91.4
million with weighted average yields of 7.56% and 7.48% for the three and six
months ended March 31, 1998, respectively, an increase of 58.1% and 58.8%,
respectively, from $63.0 million and $57.5 million with weighted average yields
of 6.63% and 6.77% for the same periods ended March 31, 1997. The increase in
investments is attributable to the Company's wholesale leveraging strategy. The
investments and mortgage-backed securities purchased have been funded primarily
with advances from the FHLB. The average balance on loans receivable increased
by $41.7 million and $42.7 million for the three and six months ended March 31,
1998, respectively, which were partially offset by a 14 basis point and 10 basis
point decline in the average yield earned thereon.



                                       13
<PAGE>   14

        INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased $1.4 million or 56.0% and
$2.6 million or 54.2% for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998,
respectively, compared to the same periods in 1997. The increase was due
primarily to a $99.2 million and $89.9 million increase in average
interest-bearing liabilities for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998
when compared to the same periods in 1997. Average deposits increased $13.7
million and $13.1 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998,
respectively, when compared to the same period in 1997. Average borrowed funds
increased $77.6 million and $72.8 million for the three and six months ended
March 31, 1998, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 1997. Such
increases were primarily due to the Bank's new branch, as well as increased
borrowings from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. Interest expense associated with the
guaranteed preferred beneficial interest in subordinated debt totaled $172,000
for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998. On March 6, 1998, the Bank
purchased a $25.0 million notional value interest rate cap from the FHLB. This
purchase was in connection with the Bank's ongoing management of its interest
rate risk position. The cap is being used as an off-balance sheet hedge to the
Bank's risk associated with its shorter term liabilities. The cost of the cap is
being amortized as a yield adjustment to interest expense over the five year
term of the transaction. Interest expense associated with the amortization of
the rate cap totaled $8,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1998.

        PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. During the three and six months ended March
31, 1998, the Company recorded provisions for losses on loans of $120,000 and
$240,000 compared to $75,000 and $150,000 for the comparable periods in 1997.
Subsequent to September 30, 1997, the Company's non-performing loans have
continued to increase. The Company has increased its originations of
single-family loans during the past several years, which management attributes
to be the primary reason for $4.0 million in non-performing loans at March 31,
1998. Management does not attribute the increase to any specific weakness within
the Company or in the marketplace generally. Although management utilizes its
best judgment in providing for losses with respect to its non-performing assets,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to dispose of such
non-performing assets without establishing additional provisions for losses on
loans or further reductions in the carrying value of its real estate owned.

        NONINTEREST INCOME. Noninterest income increased by $91,000 or 103.4%
and $307,000 or 154.3% for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998,
compared to the same periods ended March 31, 1997. In April 1997, the Board
authorized a trading account whereby up to $2.5 million could be invested in
trading account securities, with not more than $1.0 million in any single issue,
to be accounted for as trading securities in accordance with SFAS No. 115. Under
Board authorization, there is no limit on the types of securities that the
Company may invest in provided that the securities are approved under the
Company's investment policy, although to date the Company has limited its
investments to equity securities of financial institutions. At March 31, 1998,
the Company had an aggregate of $2.2 million invested in 13 securities. During
the three and six months ended March 31, 1998, the Company recognized a 




                                       14
<PAGE>   15



pre-tax net gain on trading account securities of $56,000 and $187,000,
respectively. Non-interest income (excluding the trading gains) increased
$34,000 or 38.9% for the quarter and $120,000 or 60.3% for the six month period.

        NONINTEREST EXPENSES. Noninterest expenses increased by $186,000 or
15.9% and $384,000 or 17.8% for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998,
compared to the same periods in 1997. The increase was primarily attributable to
a $130,000 and $286,000 increase in compensation and employee benefits, and a
$36,000 and $61,000 increase in net occupancy expense. The increase in salaries
and employee benefits is due to normal salary increases and the hiring of new
employees. The increase in net occupancy expense is the result of the addition
of a new branch.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The Bank incurred provisions for income taxes of
$278,000 and $570,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998,
compared with $207,000 and $449,000 for the same periods in 1997. The effective
tax rates during the three and six months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 were
35.3% and 34.5%, and 32.8% and 34.2% respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings,
repayments, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans, maturities of
investment securities and other short-term investments, and funds provided from
operations. While scheduled loan repayments and maturing investment securities
and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit
flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by the movement of interest
rates in general, economic conditions and competition. The Company manages the
pricing of its deposits to maintain a deposit balance deemed appropriate and
desirable. In addition, the Company invests in short-term investment securities
and interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet lending
requirements. Although the Company's deposits have historically represented the
majority of its total liabilities, the Company also utilizes other borrowing
sources, primarily advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh. At March 31, 1998, the
Company had $150.3 million of outstanding advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh.

        Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business
management. The Bank uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its ongoing
commitments, to pay maturing savings certificates and savings withdrawals, to
fund loan commitments and to maintain a portfolio of mortgage-backed and
investment securities. At March 31, 1998, the total approved loan commitments
outstanding amounted to $10.5 million, and unused lines of credit amounted to
$978,000. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at
March 31, 1998, totaled $81.4 million. Management believes that a significant
portion of maturing deposits will remain with the Bank.

        As of March 31, 1998, the Bank's regulatory capital was well in excess
of all applicable regulatory requirements. At March 31, 1998, the Bank's Tier 1
risk-based, total risk-based and 



                                       15
<PAGE>   16



Tier 1 leverage capital ratios amounted to 19.00%, 18.03% and 8.82%,
respectively, compared to regulatory requirements of 4.0%, 8.0% and 4.0%,
respectively.

(both generally and more specifically in the markets in which the Company
operates), the impact of competition for the Company's customers from other
providers of financial services, the impact of government legislation and
regulation (which changes from time to time and over which the Company has no
control), and other risks detailed in this Form 10-Q and in the Company's other
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings. Readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect
management's analysis only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no
obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements, to reflect
events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof. Readers should
carefully review the risk factors described in other documents the Company files
from time to time with the SEC.


IMPACT OF YEAR 2000.

        Some of the Company's older computer programs including those used by
certain third party providers, were written using two digits rather than four to
define the applicable year. As a result, those computer programs have
time-sensitive software that recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather
than the year 2000. This could cause a system failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability
to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in similar normal business
activities.

The Company is currently performing an assessment and may have to modify or
replace portions of its software so that its computer systems will function
properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The total Year
2000 project cost is estimated to have an immaterial impact.

The project is estimated to be completed not later than December 31, 1998, which
is prior to any anticipated impact on its operating system. The Company believes
that with modifications to existing software and conversions to new software,
the Year 2000 Issue will not pose significant operational problems for its
computer systems or those of the third party providers. However, if such
modifications and conversions are not made, or are not completed timely, the
Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on the operations of the Company.

The Company has initiated communications with all of its significant suppliers
and large customers to determine the extent to which the Company's interface
systems are vulnerable to

those third parties' failure to remediate their own Year 2000 Issues. There is
no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which the Company's systems
rely will be timely converted and would not have an adverse effect on the
Company's systems.

The cost of the project and the date on which the Company believes it will
complete the Year 2000 modifications are based on management's best estimates,
which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events, including
the continued availability of certain resources and other factors. However,
there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be achieved and actual
results could differ materially from those anticipated. Specific factors that
might cause such material differences include, but are not limited to, the
availability and cost of personnel trained in this area, the ability to locate
and correct all relevant computer codes, and similar uncertainties.

           QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

        Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk are presented
at September 30, 1997 in Item 7A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K,
filed with the SEC on December 24, 1997. Management believes there have been no
material changes in the Company's market risk since September 30, 1997.
