Timberland Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
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. and Subsidiaries ("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 ended
December 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 Bank, ("Bank"), and the Bank's wholly-
owned subsidiary, Timberland Service Corp.   All significant intercompany
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

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

                                       9

(2) 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 December 31, 2000, there were 432,016
ESOP shares that had not been allocated.

                                   Three Months Ended December 31,
                                           2000               1999

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

The following analysis discusses the material changes in the financial
condition and results of operations of the Company at and for the three months
ended December 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 December 31, 2000 and September 30, 2000

Total Assets: Total assets increased to $369.5 million at December 31, 2000
from $368.1 million at September 30, 2000, primarily reflected in a $1.8
million increase in cash and due from financial institutions and interest
bearing deposits in banks and a $483,000 increase in premises and equipment.
These increases were partially offset by a $793,000 decrease in total loans,
due primarily to loan sales and loan payoffs.

Cash and Due from Financial Institutions:  Cash and due from financial
institutions increased to $10.5 million at December 31, 2000 from $8.9 million
at September 30, 2000.

Interest Bearing Deposits in Banks:  Interest bearing deposits in banks
increased to $3.3 million at December 31, 2000 from $3.1 million at September
30, 2000.

Investments and Mortgage-backed Securities: Investments and mortgage-backed
securities increased to $29.3 million at December 31, 2000 from $29.1 million
at September 30, 2000, primarily due to increases in market valuations.

Loans Receivable and Loans Held-for-sale, net of allowance for loan losses:
Net loans receivable, including loans held-for-sale, decreased to $312.2
million at December 31, 2000 from $313.0 million at September 30, 2000.  This
decrease is primarily a result of the sale of $6.6 million of fixed rate
one-to-four family loans and the payoff of three large loans totaling $6.1
million, and is partially offset by loan originations.  Loan originations for
the quarter ended December 31, 2000 declined to $23.5 million from $41.5
million for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 and from $27.3 million for
the quarter ended December 31, 1999. The Company anticipates that loan
origination activity will begin to increase as declining interest rates
typically facilitate increased mortgage lending.

Real Estate Owned:   Real estate owned decreased to $1.9 million at December
31, 2000 from $2.0 million at September 30, 2000.

                                       11
<PAGE>

Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment increased by $483,000 to $9.1
million at December 31, 2000 from $8.6 million at September 30, 2000.  This
increase is primarily due to construction costs for the Bank's Tumwater branch
(Thurston County), which is scheduled to open in March.

Deposits: Deposits decreased by 1.6% to $209.3 million at December 31, 2000
from $212.6 million at September 30, 2000, primarily due to decreases in the
Bank's certificate of deposit accounts and passbook savings accounts.
Competition for high-rate long term CDs was such that the Company made a
decision to utilize short-term FHLB advances in the declining rate environment
rather than locking into high cost CD funding for up to 24 months.

Federal Home Loan Bank Advances: FHLB advances increased by 4.4% to $84.7
million at December 31, 2000 from $81.1 million at September 30, 2000.  The
advances were increased primarily to replace the $3.3 million decrease in
deposits. Short-term FHLB advances were acquired rather than high-rate long
term CD's to take advantage of an anticipated decline in interest rates for
the purpose of lowering the Company's cost of funds.

Shareholders' Equity: Total shareholders' equity increased to $73.2 million at
December 31, 2000 from $72.3 million at September 30, 2000, primarily as a
result of net income of $1.5 million, and a $315,000 increase in the
accumulated other comprehensive income category.  These increases to
shareholders' equity were partially offset by the repurchase of 45,000 shares
of the Company's stock for $549,000 and the payment of $479,000 in dividends
to shareholders.

On June 26, 2000 the Company announced a plan to repurchase 243,040 shares of
the Company's stock.  This marked the Company's seventh 5% stock repurchase
plan since the Bank's conversion to a public company in January of 1998.  As
of December 31, 2000, the Company had repurchased 112,500 of these 243,040
shares at an average price of $11.82.

The following is a discussion of the Company's non-performing assets at
December 31, 2000:

Total non-performing assets decreased to $5.1 million at December 31, 2000
from $5.6 million at September 30, 2000.  This decrease was primarily a result
of the payoff of $601,000 in loans (that were non-performing at September 30,
2000) and a $577,000 land development loan being removed from non-performing
status. These decreases were partially offset by certain other loans being
classified as non-performing during the quarter.  The Company's non-performing
assets to total asset ratio (NPA) decreased to 1.38% at December 31, 2000 from
1.52% at September 30, 2000.

The Company's REO balance decreased slightly to $1.95 million at December 31,
2000 from $1.97 million at September 30, 2000.  The largest individual REO
property is a $1.3 million convenience store with retail / office space.  For
resale marketing purposes the Company has divided the properties into three
distinct properties (two retail / office sections and the convenience store).
The Company expects the sale of one of the retail / office sections to close
by the end of February.  It is anticipated that this sale will reduce the REO
balance on the property by approximately $320,000.

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

Net Income: Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2000 was $1.5
million or $0.35 per basic share ($0.35 per diluted share) compared to net
income of $1.2 million or $0.26 per basic share ($0.26 per diluted share) for
the three months ended December 31, 1999.  Net income for the current quarter
was increased by a $175,000 ($116,000 after income tax) market value recovery
on loans held for sale.  Net income for the current quarter was reduced by
$115,000 ($76,000 after income tax) in net start-up expenses associated with
the Bank's new checking account acquisition program. Net income for the
quarter ending December 31, 1999 was reduced by a $280,000 ($185,000 after
income tax) market value writedown on loans held for sale.

Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased 7.1% to $4.1 million for
the three months ended December 31, 2000 from $3.9 million for the three
months ended December 31, 1999.  Net interest margin for the three months
ended December 31, 2000 was 4.67% compared with a net interest margin of 5.07%
for the three months ended December 31, 1999.

Total interest and dividend income increased 21.4% to $8.0 million for the
three months ended December 31, 2000 from $6.6 million for the three months
ended December 31, 1999. The increase is primarily a result of a $1.4 million
increase in interest from loans receivable.  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.  Average loan balances
increased to $322.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2000 from
$270.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999.  The average rate on
loans receivable increased to 9.24% for the quarter ended December 31, 2000
from 8.94% for the quarter ended December 31, 1999.

Total interest expense increased 41.9% to $3.8 million for the three months
ended December 31, 2000 from $2.7 million for the three months ended December
31, 1999.  This increase is primarily a result of a $637,000 increase in
interest paid on FHLB advances and a $489,000 increase in interest expense on
interest bearing deposit accounts.  Average FHLB advances increased to $85.7
million for the quarter ended December 31, 2000 from

                                       16
<PAGE>

$54.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 and the average rate on
FHLB borrowings increased to 6.66% from 5.78%.  Average interest bearing
deposit accounts increased to $193.5 million for the quarter ended December
31, 2000 from $176.8 million for the same period in 1999 and the average rate
on interest bearing deposit accounts increased to 4.94% from 4.30%.

Provision for Loan Losses: The provision for loan losses for the three months
ended December 31, 2000 was $150,000 compared with $75,000 for the three
months ended December 31, 1999.  Management increased the provision for loan
losses primarily due to changes in the composition of the loan portfolio.
Management deemed the general loan loss reserves of $2.8 million at December
31, 2000 (0.88% of loans receivable and loans held for sale and 87.9% 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.
Net charge-offs for the current quarter were $22,000 compared to $9,000 in the
same quarter in 1999.

Noninterest Income: Total noninterest income increased to $608,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 2000 from $55,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 1999.  This increase is primarily due to a combined change of
$455,000 in the market value adjustments on loans held for sale as the Company
had a $175,000 market value recovery for the quarter ended December 31, 2000
compared to a $280,000 market value writedown for the quarter ended December
31, 1999.  (The Company's loans held for sale portfolio had no net market
value writedown remaining at December 31, 2000.)  Service charges on deposits
also increased by $38,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2000 to $165,000
from $127,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, primarily as a result
of the fees associated with the Bank's new checking account programs.
Smaller increases in gain on sale of loans, servicing income on loans sold and
other fees made up the remainder of the noninterest income increase.

Noninterest Expense: Total noninterest expense increased to $2.3 million for
the three months ended December 31, 2000 from $2.1 million for the three
months ended December 31, 1999. This is primarily due to $147,000 in start-up
expenses associated with the new checking account acquisition program and an
$89,000 increase in salary and employee benefit expense.  The Company's
efficiency ratio for the quarter ended December 31, 2000 was 48.3% compared to
52.4% for the quarter ended December 31, 1999.

Provision for Income Taxes:  The provision for income taxes increased to
$764,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2000 from $592,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 1999 primarily as a result of higher income
before income taxes. The effective tax rate in both periods was 33%.

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 December 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 22.6%. The Bank also maintained an uncommitted credit facility with the
FHLB-Seattle that provided for immediately available advances up to an
aggregate amount of $109.0 million, under which $84.7 million was outstanding
at December 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
internally, it has additional borrowing capacity with the FHLB and collateral
for repurchase agreements.

The Bank's primary investing activity is the origination of one-to-four family
mortgage loans and construction and land development loans.  At December 31,
2000, the Bank had loan commitments totaling $15.5 million and undisbursed
loans in process totaling $27.8 million.  The Bank anticipates that it will
have sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments.
Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature in less than one year
from December 31, 2000 totaled $102.0 million.  Historically, the Bank has
been able to retain a significant amount of its deposits as they mature.

Federally-insured state-chartered banks are required to maintained minimum
levels of regulatory capital.  Under current FDIC regulations, insured
state-chartered banks generally must maintain (i) a ratio of Tier 1 leverage
capital to total assets of at least 3.0% (4.0% to 5.0% for all but the most
highly rated banks), (ii) a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets of
at least 4.0% and (iii) a ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets of at
least 8.0%.  At December 31, 2000, the Bank was in compliance with all
applicable capital requirements.  For additional details see "Regulatory
Capital".
