Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a)  Basis of Presentation:  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements for Timberland Bancorp, Inc. ("Company") were prepared in
accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore, do not include
all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition,
results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.    However, all adjustments, which are, in the opinion
of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial
statements have been included.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended
March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the entire fiscal year.

(b)  Principles of Consolidation:  The interim consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Savings Bank, S.S.B. ("Bank"), and the
Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, Timberland Service Corp.   All significant
intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

(2)  CONVERSION AND REORGANIZATION
On January 12, 1998, the Bank converted from a Washington-chartered mutual
savings bank to a Washington-chartered capital stock savings bank and became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  The stock conversion resulted in the
sale and issuance by the Company of 6,612,500 shares of $.01 par value common
stock at a price of $10.00 per share which resulted in gross proceeds of
$66,125,000.  After reducing gross proceeds for conversion costs of
$1,175,000, net proceeds totaled $64,950,000.  In conjunction with the
conversion, the Company loaned $7,930,307  to the Bank's employee stock
ownership plan for the purchase of 529,000 shares of common stock in the open
market immediately following the completion of the stock conversion.  On
January 13, 1998, the Company's common stock began trading on the Nasdaq
National Market under the symbol "TSBK".

                                       9

(3) EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income applicable to
common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period, without considering any dilutive items.  Diluted earnings
per share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the
weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents for
items that are dilutive, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the
treasury stock method at the average share price for the Company's common
stock during the period.  Common stock equivalents arise from assumed
conversion of outstanding stock options.  In accordance with Statement of
Position ("SOP") 93-6, Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership
Plans (ESOP), issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants, shares owned by the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan that
have not been allocated are not considered to be outstanding for the purpose
of computing earnings per share.  At March 31, 2000, there were 467,283 ESOP
shares that had not been allocated.

(4)  DIVIDEND
On May 1, 2000, the Company announced a quarterly cash dividend of $0.09 per
common share.  The dividend is to be paid May 19, 2000, to shareholders of
record as of the close of business May 5, 2000.

(5) ACCOUNTING CHANGES
Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans.  In November 1993 the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued SOP 93-6, which requires an
employer to record compensation expense in an amount equal to the fair value
of shares committed to be released to employees from an employee stock
ownership plan and to exclude unallocated shares from earnings per share
computations.  The effect of SOP 93-6 on net income and book value per share
in future periods cannot be predicted due to the uncertainty of the fair value
of the shares at the time they will be committed to be released.  Subsequent
to the Bank's conversion to stock ownership on January 12, 1998, the Company
acquired 529,000 shares for the Bank's employee stock ownership plan.
                                       10

Earnings Per Share.  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
128, "Earnings Per Share," issued in February 1997, establishes standards for
computing and presenting earnings per share ("EPS") and applies to entities
with publicly-held common stock or potential common stock.  It replaces the
presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS and requires the
dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income
statement.  Subsequent to the Bank's conversion to stock ownership on January
12, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 128 for all future periods.

Reporting Comprehensive Income.  SFAS No. 130, " Reporting Comprehensive
Income," was issued in June 1997 and requires businesses to disclose
comprehensive income and its components in their financial statements.  This
statement does not affect the results of operations or financial condition of
the Company.  The Company adopted SFAS No. 130 on October 1, 1998.

SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,"
was issued in June 1998 and establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and for hedging activities.  The Company adopted SFAS No. 133
as of September 30, 1998.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operation
--------------------

The following analysis discusses the material changes in the financial
condition and results of operations of the Company at and for the three months
and six months ended March 31, 2000.  This report contains certain
"forward-looking statements."  The Company desires to take advantage of the
"safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 and is including this statement for the express purpose of availing
itself of the protection of such safe harbor with forward looking statements.
These forward looking statements may describe future plans or strategies and
include the Company's expectations of future financial results.  The words
"believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," and similar
expressions identify forward-looking statements.  The Company's ability to
predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies is inherently
uncertain.  Factors which could affect actual results include interest rate
trends, the economic climate in the Company's market areas and the country as
a whole, loan delinquency rates, and changes in federal and state regulation.
These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking
statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2000 and September 30, 1999

Total Assets: Total assets increased 8.7% to $ 333.7 million at March 31, 2000
from $307.1 million at September 31, 1999, primarily as a result of a $24.6
million increase in loans receivable and loans held for sale, net, which was
primarily funded by increased Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings and
increased deposits.  Asset growth was partially offset by the use of $3.8
million to repurchase shares of the Company's stock.

Cash and Due from Financial Institutions:  Cash and due from financial
institutions increased to $7.9 million at March 31, 2000 from $6.8 million at
September 30, 1999.

Interest Bearing Deposits in Banks:  Interest bearing deposits in banks
increased to $1.7 million at March 31, 2000 from $1.3 million at September 30,
1999.

Investments and Mortgage-backed Securities: Investments and mortgage-backed
securities decreased by 5.2% to $30.0 million at March 31, 2000 from $31.7
million at September 30, 1999.  This decrease is primarily due to redemption's
to fund share repurchases and scheduled amortization and prepayments.

Loans Receivable, and Loans Held-for-sale, net of allowance for loan losses:
Loans receivable, including loans held-for-sale, net, increased by 9.6% to
$280.7 million at March 31, 2000 from $256.1 million at September 30, 1999.
This increase is primarily a result of an increase in one-to-four family
mortgage loans, multi-family mortgage loans, commercial mortgage loans, land
loans, and construction and land development loans.

Real Estate Owned:  Real estate owned increased by 139.8% to $2.1 million at
March 31, 2000 from $867,000 at September 30, 1999.  The Bank's REO balance
increased as the Bank foreclosed on a convenience store (with retail space)
and was the successful bidder on the property at a sheriff's sale.  The Bank
charged off $260,000 on the loan during the quarter and the property is
classified as an REO with a balance of $1.3 million at March 31, 2000.  At
September 30, 1999, this non-performing loan was classified as "substandard"
and had a principal balance of $1.4 million.  The Bank is currently marketing
the property.  Although no assurances can be given, the Bank expects to
recover the amount charged off through the collection of a deficiency
judgement against the borrowers.

The Bank's March 31, 2000 REO balance of $2.1 million is comprised of the $1.3
million commercial real estate property discussed above, six one-to-four
family residences totaling $524,000 and six parcels of land totaling $346,000.

Premises and Equipment:  Premises and equipment increased by 10.6% to $8.4
million at March 31, 2000 from $7.6 million at September 30, 1999, primarily
due to the addition of two new branches (Poulsbo and Spanaway).

Deposits: Deposits increased by 6.5% to $200.5 million at March 31, 2000 from
$188.1 million at September 30, 1999, primarily due to growth in the Bank's
certificate of deposit accounts.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances:  Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances
increased 37.8% to $62.1 million at March 31, 2000 from $45.1 million at
September 30, 1999, primarily to fund loan portfolio growth.

Shareholders' Equity: Total shareholders' equity decreased 3.0 % to $70.1
million at March 31, 2000 from $72.2 million at September 30, 1999, primarily
as a result of the repurchase of 356,627 shares of the Company's stock for
$3.8 million and the payment of $827,000 in dividends to shareholders.  This
decrease in shareholders' equity was partially offset by net income of $2.5
million.

The following is a discussion of the Company's major problem asset at March
31, 2000:

Convenience store/retail space and mini-storage, Kitsap County, Washington.
The Bank had two loans that were originated in 1996 on two separate
properties: a convenience store combined with retail space and a 436 unit mini
storage facility.  These two loans had a combined balance of $2.9 million at
September 30, 1998.  These loans became delinquent primarily because of a
dispute between the two borrowers.  The Bank initiated foreclosure proceedings
which were stayed due to a bankruptcy filing by the borrowers in January of
1998.  The bankruptcy was subsequently dismissed and the mini storage facility
was sold at a trustees sale on March 12, 1999 for the full balance, accrued
interest, late charges and fees owed.  The foreclosure of the convenience
store progressed to a sheriff's sale on December 10, 1999.  The Bank was the
successful bidder and the sale was confirmed on January 28, 2000.  The
property is currently being marketed by Timberland.  The Bank charged off
$260,000 on the loan during the quarter and the property is classified as an
REO with a balance of $1.3 million at March 31, 2000.  Although no assurances
can be given, the Bank expects to recover the amount charged off through the
collection of a deficiency judgement against the borrowers.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 and
1999

Net Income: Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 was $1.3 million
or $0.29 per basic share ($0.29 per diluted share) compared to net income of
$1.4 million or $0.28 per basic share ($0.28 per diluted share) for the
quarter ended March 31, 1999.  Net income for the current quarter was reduced
by a $127,000 ($84,000 after income tax) market value adjustment on loans held
for sale.  Earnings per basic share and earnings per diluted share would have
been $0.31 without this market value adjustment.

Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased 4.0% to $3.9 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $3.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999.

Total interest and dividend income increased 18.4% to $6.8 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $5.7 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1999
included the recognition of $313,000 for back interest and fee income on a
large non-performing loan that paid off.  The increase is primarily a result
of a $1.1 million increase in interest from loans receivable and is partially
offset by a $80,000 net decrease in interest and dividends from investment
securities and financial institutions.  The increase in interest income from
loans receivable is primarily a result of higher average balances for the
quarter in loans receivable due to loan growth. The net decrease in interest
and dividends from investments securities and financial institutions is
primarily a result of lower average balances for the quarter in investment
securities and in funds held with financial institutions due to a portion of
these funds being used to repurchase shares of the Company's stock and to fund
loan growth.

Total interest expense increased 45.6% to $2.9 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31,
1999.  This increase is primarily a result of a $680,000 increase in interest
paid on FHLB advances as average FHLB advances increased to $58.2 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $13.9 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999.

Provision for Loan Losses:  The provision for loan losses increased to
$280,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $30,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999.   Management increased the provision for loan
losses due to growth in the Bank's loan portfolio and to offset the current
quarter charge-offs of non-performing loans. Management deemed the general
loan loss reserves of $2.1 million at March 31, 2000 (0.74% of loans
receivable and loans held for sale and 48.4% of non-performing loans) adequate
to provide for estimated losses based on an evaluation of known and inherent
risks in the loan portfolio at that date.

During the quarter Timberland foreclosed on the property securing the Bank's
largest non-performing loan.  This $1.4 million loan secured by a convenience
store was removed from non-performing loans and is classified as an REO with a
balance of $1.3 million at March 31, 2000.  The Bank, however, also had
several other smaller loans become classified as non-performing during the
quarter.

Noninterest Income:  Total noninterest income decreased to $167,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 from $204,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999.  The decrease is primarily due to a $92,000 increase in market
value writedowns on loans held for sale and is partially offset by a $30,000
increase in other fees, a $17,000 increase in servicing income on loans sold,
and a $12,000 increase in service charges on deposits.

Noninterest Expense:  Total noninterest expense increased 1.7% to $1.84
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $1.81 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1999, primarily due to a $35,000 increase in
salary and employee benefit expense.

                                       16

Provision for Income Taxes:  The provision for income taxes decreased to
$647,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $707,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 primarily as a result of lower income before
income taxes.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended March 31, 2000 and
1999

Net Income: Net income for the six months ended March 31, 2000 was $2.5
million or $0.54 per basic share ($0.54 per diluted share) compared to net
income of $2.7 million or $0.51 per basic share ($0.51 per diluted share) for
the six months ended March 31, 1999.  Net income for the current six months
was reduced by a $407,000 ($269,000 after income tax) market value adjustment
on loans held for sale.  Earnings per basic share and earnings per diluted
share would have been $0.60 without this market value adjustment.

Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased 7.1% to $7.8 million for
the six months ended March 31, 2000 from $7.3 million for the six months ended
March 31, 1999.

Total interest and dividend income increased 18.6% to $13.4 million for the
six months ended March 31, 2000 from $11.3 million for the six months ended
March 31, 1999. Interest income for the six months ended March 31, 1999
included the recognition of $313,000 for back interest and fee income on a
large non-performing loan that paid off.  The increase is primarily a result
of a $2.4 million increase in interest from loans receivable and is partially
offset by a $281,000 net decrease in interest and dividends from investment
securities and financial institutions.  The increase in interest income from
loans receivable is primarily a result of higher average balances for the
quarter in loans receivable due to loan growth. The net decrease in interest
and dividends from investments securities and financial institutions is
primarily a result of lower average balances for the six months in investment
securities and in funds held with financial institutions due to a portion of
these funds being used to repurchase shares of the Company's stock and to fund
loan growth.

Total interest expense increased 39.5% to $5.6 million for the six months
ended March 31, 2000 from $4.0 million for the six months ended March 31,
1999.  This increase is primarily a result of a $1.3 million increase in
interest paid on FHLB advances as average FHLB advances increased to $56.4
million for the six months ended March 31, 2000 from $12.9 million for the six
months ended March 31, 1999.

Provision for Loan Losses:  The provision for loan losses increased to
$355,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2000 from $74,000 for the six
months ended March 31, 1999.   Management increased the provision for loan
losses due to growth in the Bank's loan portfolio and to offset charge-offs of
non-performing loans during the current period.  Management deemed the general
loan loss reserves of $2.1 million at March 31, 2000 (.74% of loans receivable
and loans held for sale, and 48.4% of non-performing loans) adequate to
provide for estimated losses based on an evaluation of known and inherent
risks in the loan portfolio at that date.

Noninterest Income:  Total noninterest income decreased 51.6% to $222,000 for
the six months ended March 31, 2000 from $459,000 for the six months ended
March 31, 1999, primarily due to a $407,000 market value writedown on loans
held for sale.  This decrease is partially offset by a $53,000 increase in
service charges on deposits, a $53,000 increase in other fees, and a $19,000
increase in gain on sale of loans.

Noninterest Expense:  Total noninterest expense increased 10.0% to $3.9
million for the six months ended March 31, 2000 from $3.5 million for the six
months ended March 31, 1999, primarily due to a $172,000 increase in salary
and benefit expense, a $75,000 increase in advertising expense, and smaller
increases in ATM expenses and premises and equipment expenses.  The increase
in salary and benefit expense was primarily due

                                       17
<PAGE>

to adding personnel to staff two new branches ( Poulsbo, and Spanaway) that
were opened toward the end of 1999 and salary increases for current employees.

Provision for Income Taxes:  The provision for income taxes decreased to $1.2
million for the six months ended March 31, 2000 from $1.4 million for the six
months ended March 31, 1999 primarily as a result of lower income before
income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, proceeds from
principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage backed securities, and
proceeds from the sale of loans, maturing securities and FHLB advances.  The
Company also raised $65.0 million in net proceeds from the January 1998 stock
offering.  While maturities and the scheduled amortization of loans are a
predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are
greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and
competition.

The Bank must maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the
availability of sufficient funds to fund loan originations and deposit
withdrawals, to satisfy other financial commitments and to take advantage of
investment opportunities.  The Bank generally maintains sufficient cash and
short-term investments to meet short-term liquidity needs.  At March 31, 2000,
the Bank's regulatory liquidity ratio (net cash, and short-term and marketable
assets, as a percentage of net deposits and short-term liabilities) was 22.1%.
The Bank also maintained an uncommitted credit facility with the FHLB-Seattle
that provided for immediately available advances up to an aggregate amount of
$95.8 million, under which $62.1 million was outstanding at March 31, 2000.

Liquidity management is both a short and long-term responsibility of the
Bank's management.  The Bank adjusts its investments in liquid assets based
upon management's assessment of (i) expected loan demand, (ii) projected loan
sales, (iii) expected deposit flows, and (iv) yields available on
interest-bearing deposits.  Excess liquidity is invested generally in
interest-bearing overnight deposits and other short-term government and agency
obligations.  If the Bank requires funds beyond its ability to generate them
