                            CLASSIC BANCSHARES, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)      PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
         ---------------------------

         The financial statements for fiscal year 2003 are presented for Classic
Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Classic Bank.
The consolidated balance sheets for September 30, 2002 and March 31, 2002 are
for the Company and Classic Bank. The consolidated statements of income include
the operations of the Company and Classic Bank for the three and six months
ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.

(2)      BASIS OF PRESENTATION
         ---------------------

         The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Regulation
S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

         In the opinion of management, the Consolidated Financial Statements
contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial condition of Classic Bancshares, Inc.
as of September 30, 2002, and the results of operations for all interim periods
presented. Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 2002 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2003.

         Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally
included in annual financial statements prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited interim
consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction
with the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002.

(3)      EARNINGS PER SHARE
         ------------------

         Earnings per share are presented pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No.
128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic earnings per share are calculated based on the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective
periods.

         Diluted earnings per share are computed taking into consideration
common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares to be issued
under the Company's stock option plans and recognition and retention plan.

         The weighted average number of shares used in the basic earnings per
share computations was 1,047,618 and 1,061,039 for the three-month periods ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively and 1,051,259 and 1,060,440 for the
six-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. The weighted average number
of shares used in the diluted earnings per share computations was 1,132,189 and
1,093,560 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively and 1,135,830 and 1,092,961 for the six-month period ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

         Options to purchase 187,850 shares of common stock were outstanding at
September 30, 2002 but 7,000 of those shares were not included in the
computation of diluted earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect.
Options to purchase 180,750 shares of common stock were outstanding at September
30, 2001 but 10,550 of those shares were not included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share due to their anti-dilutive effect.

(4)      GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES
         ------------------------------

         In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. This Statement addresses
financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible
assets and how they should be accounted for after they have been initially
recognized in the financial statements. This Statement provides specific
guidance for testing goodwill for impairment. This Statement specifically
relates to the Company in that it changes the accounting for goodwill that the
Company currently has on its balance sheet. The Statement outlines that goodwill


                                       9
<PAGE>

should not be amortized but should be tested for impairment on an annual basis
and between annual tests in certain circumstances. Impairment is the condition
that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value.
The annual goodwill impairment test may be performed any time during the fiscal
year provided the test is performed at the same time every year.

         The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2001. However, early application is permitted for entities with fiscal years
beginning after March 15, 2001. An entity has six months from the date it
initially applies this statement to complete the impairment test. The Company
adopted Statement No. 142 effective April 1, 2001. As a result of the adoption
of Statement No. 142, the Company will discontinue the amortization of its
goodwill and will only record impairment losses if deemed necessary in future
periods.

      The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended
September 30, 2002, are as follows:

Balance as of September 30, 2002               $5,555
                                               ------

The transitional goodwill impairment test was performed in the second quarter of
the Company's 2002 fiscal year. The fair value of that reporting unit was
estimated using a multiple of earnings as determined by current industry
information. The testing indicated that the fair value of the reporting unit
exceeded the carrying amount of the net assets (including goodwill). The Banking
segment will be tested for impairment in the third quarter of the Company's 2003
fiscal year. The fair value of the reporting unit will be estimated using a
multiple of earnings as determined by current industry information.

(5)      EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN (ESOP)
         ------------------------------------

         The Company has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), which covers
substantially all employees. The ESOP borrowed $1,058,000 from the Company, and
purchased 105,800 common shares, equal to 8% of the total number of shares
issued in the conversion. The loan is for a term of twenty-five years. The
Company's subsidiary bank makes scheduled discretionary contributions to the
ESOP sufficient to service the debt. Shares are allocated to participants'
accounts under the shares allocated method. The cost of shares committed to be
released and unallocated shares is reported as a reduction of stockholders'
equity. Compensation expense is recorded based on the average fair market value
of the ESOP shares when committed to be released. Furthermore, ESOP shares that
have not been committed to be released are not considered outstanding. The
expense under the ESOP was $25,985 and $16,414 for the three months ended
September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively and $48,855 and $32,447 for the six
months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. As of September 30,
2002, the Company considered 64,331 shares as unearned ESOP shares with a fair
value of $1,444,231.

                                 PART I - ITEM 2

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

FINANCIAL CONDITION
-------------------

         The Company's total assets increased $17.7 million from $215.4 million
at March 31, 2002 to $233.1 million at September 30, 2002. The increase was due
primarily to an increase in loans of $14.2 million, an increase in cash and cash
equivalents of approximately $1.9 million, an increase in investment securities
of approximately $1.4 million, an increase in FHLB stock of $400,000 and an
increase in premise and equipment of approximately $500,000 offset by a decrease
in mortgage-backed securities of approximately $700,000.

         Net loans receivable increased $14.2 million from $160.3 million at
March 31, 2002 to $174.5 million at September 30, 2002. Consistent with the
Company's strategic plan, the growth in loans was primarily in the areas of
consumer and commercial business loans. Consumer loans increased approximately
$7.8 million, commercial business loans increased approximately $4.0 million,
commercial real estate loans increased approximately $1.4 million and 1-4 family
mortgage loans increased approximately $1.0 million.

         Investment securities increased approximately $1.4 from $25.8 million
at March 31, 2002 to $27.2 million at September 30, 2002 primarily due to an
increase in the market value of these available for sale securities. Purchases
of investment securities during the period of $1.4 million were offset by sales,
maturities and calls of $1.4 million. Mortgage-backed securities decreased
approximately $700,000 from $9.1 million at March 31, 2002 to $8.4 million at
September 30, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to principal repayments
during the period partially offset by an increase in the market value of these
available for sale securities.


                                       11
<PAGE>

         Net deposits increased $14.5 million from $158.9 million at March 31,
2002 to $173.4 million at September 30, 2002. Savings, NOW and money market
accounts increased approximately $4.3 million and other time deposits consisting
primarily of certificates of deposit increased approximately $10.2 million. The
increase in deposits was used to fund loan growth. In the first quarter of the
2003 fiscal year, the Company funded loan growth primarily utilizing short-term,
variable rate borrowings, however during the second quarter of the fiscal year
the Company was able to increase deposits at attractive rates to fund growth.
Several factors contributed to the increased deposits in the second quarter,
including the attraction of a large public fund deposit account, deposits from
equity fund disintermediation and an increase in certificate of deposit accounts
through competitive market pricing in order to lengthen liability maturities.

         Total stockholders' equity was $22.0 million at March 31, 2002 compared
to $24.0 million at September 30, 2002. The increase was due to net income
recorded for the period and an increase in the market value of available for
sale securities offset by the purchase of treasury stock and cash dividends
paid.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE AND SIX
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001
----------------------------------------

         GENERAL. The Company's results of operations depend primarily upon the
level of net interest income, which is the difference between the interest
income earned on its interest-earning assets such as loans and investments, and
the costs of the Company's interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and
borrowings. Results of operations are also dependent upon the level of the
Company's non-interest income, including fee income and service charges, and
affected by the level of its non-interest expenses, including its general and
administrative expenses. Net interest income depends upon the volume of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates
earned or paid on them, respectively.

         The Company reported net income of $728,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2002 compared to net income of $544,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2001. The increase in net income of $184,000 between the two
periods was primarily the result of an increase in net interest income of
$436,000, an increase in non-interest income of $51,000 and a decrease in
provision for loss on loans of $21,000 partially offset by an increase in
non-interest expense of $241,000 and an increase in income taxes of $83,000.


                                       12
<PAGE>

         The Company reported net income of $1.4 million for the six months
ended September 30, 2002 compared to net income of $957,000 for the six months
ended September 30, 2001. The increase in income of $427,000 between the two
periods was primarily the result of an increase in net interest income of $1.1
million and an increase in non-interest income of $78,000 partially offset by an
increase in provision for loss on loans of $70,000, an increase in non-interest
expenses of $456,000 and an increase in income taxes of $193,000.

         INTEREST INCOME. Total interest income increased $80,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2002 and increased $194,000 for the six months ended
September 30, 2002 as compared to the three and six months ended September 30,
2001. The increase in interest income for the three and six-month period was due
to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $32.8
million for the three-month period and an increase of $33.0 million for the
six-month period offset by a decrease in the yield earned on interest-earning
assets. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets was due
primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans and an increase in the
average balance of mortgage-backed securities. The average balance of loans
increased $25.9 million for the three-month period and $25.4 million for the
six-month period. The average balance of mortgage-backed securities increased
$6.7 million for the three-month period and $5.6 million for the six-month
period. The average yield on interest-earning assets was 7.0% for the three and
six months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 8.1% for the same periods in
2001. Tax equivalent adjustments were made to the yield. The decrease in the
yield was due to the repricing of assets during the period in a declining
interest rate environment.

         INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased $356,000 and $874,000 for
the three and six months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to the same period
in 2001. Interest expense decreased for the periods primarily due to a decrease
in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities offset by an increase
in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The average rate paid on
interest-bearing liabilities was 2.8% for the three and six months ended
September 30, 2002 compared to 4.3% and 4.5% for the three and six months ended
September 30, 2001. The decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities was due to a significant decline in interest rates in the past
twelve months. Most of the Company's interest-bearing liabilities have repriced
to lower interest in the past twelve months. All of the Company's borrowings
during the period of the interest rate decreases were short-term with variable
rates allowing the cost of the borrowings to decrease as rates decreased. Within
the past nine months, some of the borrowings have been restructured to
long-term, fixed rate borrowings. At September 30, 2002, the Company's FHLB
borrowings had an average remaining maturity of 3.2 years and an average cost of
3.6%.

         The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased $31.2
million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the same
period in 2001 and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased
$30.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the same
period in 2001. The increase in these balances is primarily the result of an
increase in the average balance of interest-bearing transaction accounts, an
increase in the average balance of certificate of deposit accounts and an
increase in the average balance of FHLB borrowings.

         The resulting interest rate spread was 4.2% for the three and six
months ended September 30, 2002 compared to 3.8% and 3.6% for the same periods
in 2001.

         PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The Company's provision for loan losses
totaled $50,000 and $210,000 for the three and six months ended September 30,
2002 compared to $71,000 and $141,000 for the three and six months ended
September 30, 2001 based on management's overall assessment of the loan
portfolio. The provision recorded for the three and six-month period was based
on management's evaluation of the Company's current portfolio including factors
such as the quality of the portfolio, the increase in loans that are not secured
by 1-4 family real estate and overall growth in the loan portfolio. Management
continually monitors the Company's allowance for loan losses and makes
adjustments as economic conditions, portfolio quality and portfolio diversity


                                       13
<PAGE>

dictates. Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at a
level which the Board considers to be adequate to provide for probable incurred
losses on existing loans, there can be no assurance that future losses will not
exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not
be required for future periods.

         NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income increased approximately
$51,000 and $78,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2002
compared to the same period in 2001. The increase for the three and six-month
period is primarily the result of an increase in service charges and other fees
on deposits of $48,000 and $56,000, respectively. The increase in service
charges and other fees on deposits for the periods is the result of an increased
core deposit base. Non-interest income also increased for the three and
six-month period due to an increase in other income of $3,000 and $19,000,
respectively. Non-interest income also increased for the six-month period due to
an increase of $3,000 in the gain recorded on the sale of securities.

         NON-INTEREST EXPENSE. Non-interest expenses increased $241,000 and
$456,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the
same periods in 2001. Non-interest expenses increased $241,000 for the
three-month period due to an increase in employee compensation and benefits of
$177,000, an increase in stationary, printing and supplies expense of $15,000,
an increase in communications expense of $13,000, an increase in marketing and
advertising expense of $23,000, an increase in federal deposit insurance
premiums of $3,000 and an increase in other general administrative expenses of
$26,000 offset by a decrease in occupancy and equipment expense of $8,000 and a
decrease in the loss on foreclosed real estate of $8,000.

         Non-interest expenses increased $456,000 for the six-month period due
to an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $278,000, an increase in
federal deposit insurance premiums of $7,000, an increase in the loss on
foreclosed real estate of $23,000, an increase in stationary, printing and
supplies of $47,000, an increase in marketing and advertising of $54,000, an
increase in taxes paid on capital and deposits of $21,000, an increase in
professional fees of $13,000 and an increase in other general and administrative
expenses of $13,000.

         Employee compensation and benefits increased for the two periods
primarily due to the hiring of staff for our new Greenup County banking office
which opened in August 2002; an increase in costs related to incentive-based
compensation programs; and an increase in ESOP expense due to the increase in
the average market price of the Company's stock. Stationary, printing and
supplies expense also increased due to expenses related to the opening of the
new Greenup County office.

         Advertising increased due to the undertaking of an aggressive
advertising campaign utilizing the endorsement of a national celebrity. The
increase for the six-month period in the loss reported on foreclosed real estate
was due to the write-down of a piece of foreclosed real estate.

         INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Income tax expense increased $83,000 and $193,000
for the three and six months ended September 30, 2002 primarily due to an
increase in income before income taxes for each period.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
---------------------------------------------------

         The allowance for loan losses is calculated based upon an evaluation
and assessment of pertinent factors underlying the types and qualities of the
Company's loans. Management considers such factors as the payment status of a
loan, the borrower's ability to repay the loan, the estimated fair value of the
underlying collateral, anticipated economic conditions that may affect the
borrower's repayment ability and the Company's historical charge-offs. The
Company's allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2002 was $1.8 million or
1.0% of the total loans. The March 31, 2002 allowance for loan loss was $1.6
million, or 1.0% of total loans. The Company recorded a provision for loan
losses of $210,000 for the six-month period, and had net charge-offs of $15,000
for the six-month period. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2002
was allocated as follows: $362,000 to one-to-four family real estate loans,
$20,000 to commercial real estate, $69,000 to commercial business loans, $38,000
to consumer loans and $1.3 million remained unallocated.


                                       14
<PAGE>

         The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets is one indicator of
other exposure to credit risk. Non-performing assets of the Company consist of
non-accruing loans, accruing loans delinquent 90 days or more, and foreclosed
assets, which have been acquired as a result of foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of
foreclosure. For all periods presented the Company had no troubled debt
restructurings. The following table sets forth the amount of non-performing
assets at the periods indicated.

</TABLE>


         Total non-performing assets increased $72,000 from March 31, 2002 to
September 30, 2002 due primarily to an increase in accruing 1-4 family real
estate loans delinquent 90 days or more. Management continually pursues
collection of these loans in order to decrease the level of non-performing
assets.

         OTHER ASSETS OF CONCERN. Other than the non-performing assets set forth
in the table above, as of September 30, 2002, there were no loans with respect
to which known information about the possible credit problems of the borrowers
or the cash flows of the security properties have caused management to have
concerns as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan
repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such items in
the non-performing asset categories.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------

         The Company's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The
levels of these assets are dependent on the Company's operating, financing, and
investing activities. At September 30, 2002 and March 31, 2002, cash and cash
equivalents totaled $7.3 million and $5.4 million, respectively. The Company's
primary sources of funds include principal and interest payments on loans (both
scheduled and prepayments), maturities of investment securities and principal
payments from mortgage-backed securities, deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank of
Cincinnati advances and other borrowings. While scheduled loan and
mortgage-backed security repayments and proceeds from maturing investment
securities are relatively predictable, deposit flows and early repayments are
more influenced by interest rates, general economic conditions and competition.
Certificates of deposit as of September 30, 2002 maturing within one year
totaled $63.8 million.

         Liquidity management is both a short- and long-term responsibility of
management. The Company adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon
management's assessment of expected loan demand, projected purchases of
investment and mortgage-backed securities, expected deposit flows, yields
available on interest-bearing deposits, and liquidity of its asset/liability
management program. Excess liquidity is generally invested in interest-bearing
overnight deposits and other short-term liquid asset funds. If funds are
required beyond the funds generated internally, the subsidiaries of the Company
have the ability to borrow funds from the FHLB and other third parties. At
September 30, 2002, the Company had $28.0 million in borrowings outstanding with
the FHLB. On a limited basis, the Company at times utilizes repurchase
agreements for the generation of additional funds from our established
relationship business customers. At September 30, 2002, the Company had $5.3
million of repurchase agreements with existing relationship based business
customers.

         At September 30, 2002, the Company had outstanding commitments to fund
loans of $14.7 million. The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient
funds available to meet its current commitments principally through the use of
current liquid assets and through its borrowing capacity with the FHLB.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
---------------------------------------

         The consolidated financial statements and related data presented herein
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in
terms of historical dollars without considering changes in the relative
purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of
inflation on the operations of the Company is reflected in increased operating
costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and
liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result,
interest rates, generally, have a more significant impact on a financial
institution's performance than does inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily
move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and
services.

DISCLOSURE AND INTERNAL CONTROLS
--------------------------------

         The Company has adopted interim disclosure controls and procedures
designed to facilitate the Company's financial reporting. The interim disclosure
controls currently consist of communications among the Chief Executive Officer,
the Chief Financial Officer and each department head to identify any
transactions, events, trends, risks or contingencies which may be material to
the Company's operations. The Company's disclosure controls also include certain
internal controls adopted in connection with applicable accounting guidelines.
Finally, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, the Audit
Committee and the Company's independent auditors also meet on a quarterly basis
and discuss the Company's material accounting policies. The Company has
evaluated the effectiveness of these interim disclosure controls within the 90
days prior to the filing of this report.

         The Company maintains internal controls and has evaluated such controls
within 90 days of the filing of this report. There have not been any significant
changes in such internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation
