Forward-Looking Statements

  Certain statements in this Form 10-Q constitute "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties
and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or
achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements were based on various factors and
were derived utilizing numerous important assumptions and other important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements, including, but are not limited to: regional and
national economic conditions, substantial changes in levels of market interest
rates, credit and other risks of lending and investment activities and
competitive and regulatory factors, competition in the Company's existing and
potential future lines of business, the ability of the Company to complete, on a
timely basis, the necessary actions with respect to Year 2000 computer issues
and other factors. Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also
involved in the derivation of these forward-looking statements, and the failure
of such other assumptions to be realized as well as other factors may also cause
actual results to materially differ from those projected. The Company does not
undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to update any forward-
looking statements to reflect occurrences or unanticipated events or
circumstances after the date of such statements.

                                  (Unaudited)

(1) Organization

  Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references hereinafter to the
Company refer to Franchise Mortgage Acceptance Company, along with all its
predecessor entities, including Franchise Mortgage Acceptance Company LLC
("Franchise Mortgage LLC").

  On November 18, 1997, the Company completed its initial public offering (the
"Offering") pursuant to which 10,000,000 shares of common stock were sold to the
public at a price of $18.00 per share. On November 28, 1997, and December 3,
1997, 890,625 and 609,378 additional shares of common stock were sold to the
public, respectively, at the sale price of $18.00 per share. Net proceeds to the
Company after offering costs of $1.7 million were $112.6 million.

  Immediately prior to the Offering, Franchise Mortgage LLC merged into
Franchise Mortgage Acceptance Company, a Delaware corporation which was
incorporated in August 1997 for the purpose of succeeding to the business of
Franchise Mortgage LLC. As part of the Offering, Imperial Credit Industries,
Inc. ("ICII") and FLRT, Inc. collectively sold to the public 4,062,500 shares of
Company common stock at $18.00 per share. Subsequent to the sales of common
stock described above, ICII owned 38.4% and FLRT, Inc. owned 21.6% of the
Company's outstanding shares of common stock. On February 24, 1999, the Company
issued an additional 44,932 shares of common stock to former employees of the
Company.

  On March 10, 1999, Bay View Capital Corporation ("Bay View") and the Company
executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization providing for the
merger of the Company and Bay View. Following the merger, the Company will
operate as a subsidiary of Bay View Bank. Consummation of the merger is subject
to a number of closing conditions, including approval by both Bay View's and the
Company's stockholders, obtaining necessary regulatory approvals and other
closing conditions.

(2) Basis of Presentation

  The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. The consolidated financial statements
include the financial statements of Franchise Mortgage Acceptance Company and
FMAC Golf Finance Group LLC. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In preparing the
consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the
dates of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the periods presented.
Significant balance sheet accounts which could be materially affected by such
estimates include securities available for sale, loans and leases held for sale,
loans and leases held for investment, retained interest in loan securitizations
and servicing rights. Actual results could differ significantly from those
estimates. Certain reclassifications were made to the prior year balances to
conform with the current year presentation.

(3) Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

  Cash paid for interest for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 was
$9.0 million and $6.5 million, respectively. Cash paid for taxes for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 was $0.5 million and $0.9 million,
respectively.

(5) Loans and Leases Held for Sale

  The Company offers permanent commercial loans, multi-family and equipment
loans and leases to those sectors in which it operates. Substantially all of the
Company's permanent commercial loans are self-amortizing, long-term fixed or
adjustable rate loans provided for purposes other than development and
construction of business units. Multi-family loans are generally fixed rate
loans amortized over 30 years. Equipment loans are fixed rate products tied to
U.S. Treasury rates that generally have a maximum term of up to 10 years. The
Company's equipment leases generally range in term from 5 to 7 years and are
substantially made up of "direct financing" leases. Loans and leases held for
sale were pledged as collateral for the borrowings of the Company.

(6)  Loans and Leases Held for Investment

  The Company offers short-term commercial loans (DEVCO and Seasoning loans) to
those sectors in which it operates. DEVCO loans are short-term, interest-only
loans offered to fund the development and construction of new business units.
Seasoning loans are short-term, interest-only loans offered to fund the
acquisition of new business units or the conversion of existing business units
into a different franchise concept. The Company's permanent commercial loans,
multi-family loans, and equipment loans and leases that are classified as held
for investment are classified as such because they are not immediately salable

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  The Company is a commercial finance company engaged in the business of
originating and servicing loans and equipment leases to small businesses, with a
primary focus on established national and regional franchise concepts and such
other branded concepts such as service stations or convenience stores. The
Company also engages in the business of originating and servicing multi-family
income producing property loans. Additionally, the Company's insurance services
subsidiary offers insurance products to businesses nationwide.

  Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references hereinafter to the
Company refer to Franchise Mortgage Acceptance Company, along with all its
predecessor entities, including Franchise Mortgage Acceptance Company LLC
("Franchise Mortgage LLC").

  On March 10, 1999, Bay View Capital Corporation ("Bay View") and the Company
executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization providing for the
merger of the Company and Bay View. Following the merger, the Company will
operate as a subsidiary of Bay View Bank. Consummation of the merger is subject
to a number of closing conditions, including approval by both Bay View's and the
Company's stockholders, obtaining necessary regulatory approvals and other
closing conditions.

Results of Operations

 Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998

  Total revenues increased 5.3% to $23.3 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 from $22.2 million for the comparable period in 1998. During the
same periods, the Company's total expenses increased 51.7% to $14.7 million from
$9.7 million. As a result, net income decreased 29.1% to $5.1 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $7.2 million in 1998.

  The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to a $5.3 million increase
in servicing income, a $1.6 million increase in trading income, a $1.1 million
increase in insurance brokerage fees, offset by a $5.5 million decrease in gain
on sale of loans and leases, and a $1.6 million decrease in net interest income.

  For the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company sold approximately
$270.0 million of loans in four whole loan sales for a gain on sale of $9.2
million (of which $9.2 million was cash) as compared to $183.3 million of loans
and leases sold in one securitization for a gain on sale of $14.5 million (of
which $14.2 million was cash) for the three months ended March 31, 1998.
Additionally, $2.0 million in net loan fees was recognized in the three months
ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $2.2 million in 1998. The decreased gain on
sale of loans was due to several factors, including the composition of loans in
the securitizations and whole loan sales, the structure of the securitizations,
as well as market conditions at the time of the securitization transactions.

  Net interest income decreased 37.0% to $2.6 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 as compared to $4.2 million for the same period in 1998. This
decrease is primarily due to the addition of the Multi-Family lending group
which originates its loan products at a lower net interest spread than the
Company's other lending groups.

  Loan servicing income increased 419.3% to $6.5 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 1998.
This was due to an increase in loans and leases serviced which resulted from the
securitizations and whole loan sales 1998 with servicing rights retained by the
Company as well as an increase of serviced loans directly related to the
addition of Multi-Family Finance Group.

  Trading income for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was $1.6 million.
This income is recorded directly through operations as the Company's financial
instruments used to hedge its loans and leases are classified as trading. Prior
to December 31, 1998, the Company deferred its hedge gains and losses and
recorded them as an addition or reduction to the gain on sale.

                                       11
<PAGE>
 
  The Company also recorded $1.1 million in insurance brokerage fee income for
the three months ended March 31, 1999. There was no insurance brokerage fee
income for the same period of 1998 because the Company did not begin marketing
insurance products until the third quarter of 1998.

  Total expenses increased 51.7% to $14.7 million for the year ended March 31,
1999 as compared to $9.7 million for the same period of the prior year primarily
due to infrastructure additions needed to fund increased loan and lease
originations as well as the addition of the Multi-Family Finance Group.
Personnel expenses increased 63.7% to $8.5 million due to the aforementioned as
well as the amortization of the employee stock awards, professional services
decreased 17.4% to $0.5 million, travel increased 48.9% to $0.8 million,
business promotion increased 28.5% to $0.8 million, provision for losses
increased $0.3 million, occupancy increased 131.1% to $0.8 million, goodwill
amortization increased 510.8% to $0.7 million and general and administrative
expenses increased 2.4% to $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31,
1999 as compared to the same period in 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

  The Company requires access to short-term warehouse lines of credit and
repurchase facilities in order to fund loan and lease originations pending sale
or securitization of such loans and leases. Warehouse lines of credit,
repurchase facilities and working capital lines of credit at March 31, 1999 and
December 31, 1998 consisted of the following:

activities was $13.5 million, which was primarily attributable to payment of
$13.0 million to Bankers Mutual and Bankers Mutual Mortgage Inc. (together
"Bankers") according to the earn-out clause of the Asset Purchase Agreement
dated March 9, 1998 by and among the Company, Bankers, and the holders of the
outstanding shares of Bankers. For the three months ended March 31, 1998, net
cash provided by investing activities was $22.3 million, which was primarily
attributable to the sale of a $22.9 million security, which was related to the
Company's 1997-B securitization.

  For the three months ended March 31, 1999, net cash used in financing
activities was $61.0 million, which was primarily attributable to decreased
amounts of warehouse line borrowings resulting from the above referenced sales
of loans during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 1998, net cash
provided by financing activities was $148.3 million, which was primarily
attributable to an increase in borrowings from warehouse lines of credit to
finance loan originations during the period.

  The Company anticipates that its current cash, together with cash generated
from operations and funds available under its credit facilities, will be
sufficient to fund its operations for at least the next 12 months if the
Company's future operations are consistent with management's expectations.
However, the Company is dependent upon its ability to sell and securitize its
loans as well as access warehouse lines of credit and repurchase facilities to
fund new loan originations. The Company currently expects to be able to maintain
existing warehouse lines of credit and repurchase facilities as current
arrangements expire or become fully utilized; however, there can be no assurance
that such financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all.

Year 2000 Computer Issue

  The Year 2000 ("Y2K") computer issue affects virtually all companies and
organizations. Many currently installed computer systems were designed to use
only a two-digit date field. This can cause problems in the systems
distinguishing a 21st century date (i.e. 20--) from a 20th century date (i.e.
19--). Until the date fields are updated, systems or programs could fail or give
erroneous results when referencing dates following December 31, 1999.

  The Company is committed to ensuring that all of its computer systems and
operations are Y2K ready. Further, the Company is making such efforts, as it
deems appropriate, to determine that its value chain participants will also be
Y2K ready. The Company has established its Year 2000 Readiness and Compliance
Project ("Y2K Project") as a major project internally, and as such has full
support from the Company's senior management and Board of Directors. Project
awareness is continuously being performed through meetings and documented
communications. The Company is committing the necessary internal and external
resources along with the necessary budgets to ensure successful completion of
the Y2K Project.

  The Company has organized a Y2K Project Steering Committee that includes
members of all Company operations groups. There is a dedicated Y2K Project Core
Team made up of full time internal and external resources to perform all
necessary project tasks. In addition, the Company has retained the services of
an outside independent 

                                       13
<PAGE>
 
consulting firm to assist on the project and provide objective guidance. Both
the Y2K Project Steering Committee and the Y2K Project Core Team meet regularly
to review progress.

  The Company has developed a comprehensive strategic plan for its Y2K Project.
The plan consists of the following three major phases:  Phase I covers awareness
and impact assessment of all internal systems, which commenced in September 1998
and will continue until the Y2K Project is completed; Phase II covers testing
and remediation of all mission critical systems, which commenced in January 1999
and concluded in April 1999; Phase III covers testing and remediation of all
non-mission critical systems, which commenced in December 1998 and is projected
to conclude in June 1999.

  The Company's plan is comprehensive, including an assessment and compliance
review of the following:

    . Internal hardware and software systems, including data interchange with
      external systems
    . Value chain participants
    . Business infrastructure
    . Customers, including Y2K readiness of potential new customers

  Borrower assessments are currently underway, with the mission critical
borrower assessments to be completed by May 1999 and all others by September
1999. Currently, the Company has not identified any critical Y2K issues with
either its value chain participants or its borrowers.

  The Company has established dedicated budgets for its Y2K Project. Currently,
the projected total cost of the Y2K Project is approximately $1.0 million but is
subject to change if any unanticipated situations arise. Any expenses related to
Y2K issues are being expensed as incurred. As of April 30, 1999, the Company has
incurred approximately $327,000 in Y2K Project related expenditures.

  The Company has completed a preliminary assessment of internal computer
systems and believes that there is an effective program in place to resolve the
Y2K issue in an accurate and timely manner. Consequently, the Company
anticipates that the costs associated with Y2K compliance of internal systems
will not be material. However, the Company has not yet determined the
materiality of its relations with third parties and therefore cannot yet
determine costs that will result as a consequence of the Company's external
operations.

  Subject to completion of final assessments, the risks associated with the
Company's  internal Y2K issues do not appear to be material due to the current
compliance status of most all hardware and the vendor assurances on the third-
party supplied software systems. Risks related to third-party business partners
and borrowers are not completely known at this time. The Company's ongoing
Awareness and Impact Assessment phase will result in the identification of
substantially all Y2K related risks in these areas. There can be no guarantee
that the systems of other organizations on which the Company's systems rely will
be Y2K compliant or will be compatible with the Company' systems, each of which
could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

  The Company is currently building specific contingency plans as they relate to
the Y2K issues. A formal process is currently underway to address all determined
business risks in a comprehensive contingency plan. This plan will address all
system, facilities, business partner and borrower areas as they specifically
relate to the Y2K risks that are identified.

  The Company is working to identify and analyze the most reasonably likely
worst case scenarios for third-party relationships affected by the Y2K issues.
These scenarios could include possible infrastructure collapse, unforeseen
product shortages, major transportation disruptions, any one of which could have
major and material effects on the Company's business. While the Company is
developing contingency plans to address most issues under its control, an
infrastructure problem outside of its control could result in a delay in the
Company's delivering its products and services depending on the nature and
severity of the problems.

  Although the Company is dedicating substantial resources towards obtaining Y2K
readiness, there is no assurance that it will be successful in its efforts to
identify and address all Y2K issues. Even if the Company acts in a 

                                       14
<PAGE>
 
timely manner to complete all of its assessments, identify, develop and
implement remediation plans believed to be adequate, and develop contingency
plans, some problems may not be identified or corrected in time to prevent
material adverse consequences to the Company. The estimates and conclusions
herein are forward-looking statements and are based on management's best
estimates of future events. Risks of completing the plan include the
availability of resources, the ability to discover and correct potential Y2K
sensitive problems which could have a serious impact on certain operations and
the ability of the Company's service providers to bring their systems into Y2K
compliance. As the Company continues to progress with its Y2K initiatives, it
may discover that actual results will differ materially from these estimates.
The Company's Y2K efforts are continual and the Y2K Project will evolve, as new
information becomes available.

Inflation

  The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased costs of the Company's
operations. Unlike industrial companies, nearly all of the assets and
liabilities of the Company's operations are monetary in nature. As a result,
interest rates have a greater impact on the Company's operations' performance
than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Inflation affects the
Company's operations primarily through its effect on interest rates, since
interest rates normally increase during periods of high inflation and decrease
during periods of low inflation. During periods of significantly increasing
interest rates, demand for loans may be adversely affected.

(1)  As of March 31, 1999, the weighted average interest rate on securities held
     for sale was 8.82%.
(2)  Future cash flows from retained interest are dependent upon actual credit
     losses and prepayment speed of the loans underlying the security. The
     Company applies a discount rate to the expected cash flows of each retained
     interest which includes estimated credit losses, prepayment speed and time
     value of money. As of March 31, 1999, the weighted average discount rate
     used on the retained interests was 19.19% with 8.96% weighted average
     accretion of income.

  Financial instruments include loans and leases held for sale, loans and leases
held for investment, securities available for sale, retained interest in loan
securitizations, servicing rights and borrowings. Fair value estimates are
subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of judgment and
therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could
significantly affect the estimates. In addition, the fair value estimates

                                       16
<PAGE>
 
presented do not include the value of anticipated future business and the value
of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments.

  The carrying values of interest-bearing deposits approximate fair value due to
their short-term nature. The fair value of securities available for sale was
based on discounted cash flow. The fair value of loans and leases held for sale
and loans and leases held for investment are estimated by discounting expected
future cash flows at an estimated market rate of interest. A market rate of
interest is estimated based on the AAA Corporate Bond Rate, adjusted for credit
risk and the Company's cost to administer such loans. The fair value of retained
interest in loan securitizations was estimated by discounting future cash flows
using rates that an unaffiliated third-party purchaser would require on
instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities. The fair values of
borrowings were estimated by discounting cash flows at interest rates for debt
having similar credit ratings and maturities.

Qualitative Information about Interest Rate Risk

  The following discussion about the Company's risk management activities
includes "forward-looking statements" that involve risk and uncertainties.

  The Company's profits depend, in part, on the difference, or ''spread,''
between the effective rate of interest received by the Company on the loans it
originates or purchases and the interest rates payable by the Company under its
warehouse financing facilities or for securities issued in its securitizations.
The spread can be adversely affected because of interest rate increases during
the period from the date the loans are originated or purchased until the closing
of the sale or securitization of such loans.

  The Company is required by its warehouse lending facilities to hedge all of
its fixed-rate principal loan balances securing such facilities. The Company's
hedging strategy normally includes selling U.S. Treasury futures in such amounts
and maturities as to effectively hedge the interest rate volatility of its
portfolio. The Company does not maintain naked or leveraged hedge positions.

  In addition, the Company from time to time may use various other hedging
strategies to provide a level of protection against interest rate risks on its
fixed-rate loans. These strategies may include forward sales of loans or loan-
backed securities, interest rate caps and floors and buying and selling of
futures and options on futures. The Company's management determines the nature
and quantity of hedging transactions based on various factors, including market
conditions and the expected volume of loan originations and purchases. While the
Company believes its hedging strategies are cost-effective and provide some
protection against interest rate risks, no hedging strategy can completely
protect the Company from such risks. Further, the Company does not believe that
hedging against the interest rate risks associated with variable-rate loans is
cost-effective, and does not utilize the hedging strategies described above with
respect to its variable-rate loans.
