Options to purchase
245,357 and 34,100 shares of common stock at exercise prices of $14.25 to $18.30 and $16.75 to $18.30 per share were outstanding at September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per
share because the options were anti-dilutive.



NOTE D  STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION



We have stock-based employee compensation
plans, which are accounted for under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations. No stock-based
employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net
income and earnings per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation to stock-based
employee compensation.

NOTE E  PENSION EXPENSE



We are a participating employer in a multi-employer defined-benefit pension plan, which covers substantially all full-time
employees of the Company. On June 30, 2004, the Company froze the defined-benefit plan and discontinued the accrual of benefits beyond what was already earned to that date. In March 2005, we made a voluntary payment of $1.1 million to the
defined-benefit pension plan to fund a portion of our liability. The payment was made to improve our funded status, which should reduce the overall Normal Cost under the plan and provide greater flexibility in meeting minimum funding requirements in
future periods. Total pension expense recognized for the third quarter of 2005 was $51,000 as compared to $190,000 in the third quarter of 2004. Total pension expense recognized for the first nine months of 2005 was $1.5 million as compared to
$637,000 in the first nine months of 2004.



NOTE F  INVESTMENT
SEURITIES



We reclassified all investments previously
accounted for as held to maturity to available for sale on September 30, 2005. On the date of transfer, these investments had a book value of $163.3 million, a market value of $160.2 million, and an unrealized net loss
of $3.2 million on that date. This reclassification provides us with more flexibility to address changes in interest rate risk or capitalize on opportunities to generate higher interest earnings. The change had no effect on our earnings but did
reduce shareholders equity due the recording of unrealized net losses in other comprehensive income.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY



Ameriana Bancorp is an Indiana chartered bank holding company, which was
organized in 1987 by Ameriana Savings Bank, FSB. The Company is subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve Bank. Ameriana began banking operations in 1890. On June 29, 2002, the Bank converted to an Indiana savings bank and
adopted its present name, Ameriana Bank and Trust, SB. The Bank is subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions (DFI). Our
deposits are insured to applicable limits by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) administered by the FDIC. References in this Form 10-Q to we, us, and our refer to Ameriana Bancorp and/or
Ameriana Bank and Trust, as appropriate.



We are headquartered
in New Castle, Indiana. We conduct business through our main office at 2118 Bundy Avenue, New Castle, Indiana and through nine other branch offices located in New Castle, Middletown, Knightstown, Morristown, Greenfield, Anderson, Avon, McCordsville
and New Palestine, Indiana. The Bank has three direct wholly owned subsidiaries, Ameriana Insurance Agency (AIA), Ameriana Financial Services, Inc. (AFS) and Ameriana Investment Management, Inc. (AIMI). AIA
provides insurance sales from offices in New Castle, Greenfield and Avon, Indiana. AFS offers debt protection products through its ownership of an interest in Family Financial Holdings, Incorporated, Columbus, Indiana. In 2002, AFS acquired a 20.9%
ownership interest in Indiana Title Insurance Company, LLC (ITIC) through which it offers title insurance. AFS also operates a brokerage facility in conjunction with Linsco/Private Ledger. AIMI manages the Banks investment
portfolio. The Company holds a minority interest in a limited partnership, House Investments, organized to acquire and manage real estate investments which qualify for federal tax credits.



Ameriana Bank and Trust is a community-oriented financial institution. Our
principal business consists of attracting deposits from the general public and investing those funds primarily in mortgage loans on single-family residences, multi-family, commercial real estate, commercial and industrial loans, small business
lending, home improvement, and consumer loans. We have from time to time purchased loans and loan participations in the secondary market. We also invest in various federal and government agency obligations and other investment securities permitted
by applicable laws and regulations, including mortgage-backed, municipal and equity securities. We offer customers in our market area time deposits with terms from three months to seven years, interest-bearing and non interest-bearing checking
accounts, savings accounts and money market accounts. Our primary source of borrowings is Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances. Through our subsidiaries, we engage in insurance and brokerage activities. We also operate a Trust
Department, which provides trust, investment and estate planning services.

##### Table of Contents

Our primary source of income is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income
earned on our loan and investment portfolios and the interest expense incurred on our deposits and borrowing portfolios. Our loan portfolio typically earns more interest than the investment portfolio, and our deposits typically have a lower average
rate than FHLB advances. Several factors affect our net interest income. These factors include the loan, investment, deposit, and borrowing portfolio balances, their composition, the length of their maturity, re-pricing characteristics, liquidity,
credit, and interest rate risk, as well as market and competitive conditions.



Low interest rates in 2001, 2002 and 2003 spurred a great demand for residential mortgage loan refinancing. During this period, we refinanced a large segment of loans that were in our residential mortgage loan
portfolio. Most of these refinanced loans were sold in the secondary market due to the interest rate risk associated with long-term low interest loans. As a result, our residential mortgage loan portfolio declined from $295.9 million at
December 31, 2000 to $93.5 million at December 31, 2004. In 2002, we expanded lending in commercial real estate to help offset the decline in residential mortgage loans. Most of the funds made available from residential mortgage loan
pay-offs were reinvested in government agency securities. Accordingly, our investment securities portfolio increased from $99.7 million at December 31, 2001 to $170.4 million at December 31, 2004.



The substantial shift from higher-earning loans to lower-earning investments
is a primary factor in the decline in our net interest margin, which had a major impact on our core earnings. To improve our net interest margin, we will focus on increasing residential, commercial real estate, and commercial and industrial loan
production, and by expanding our loan offerings to include Federal Housing Administration and Small Business Administration lending. We also plan on expanding broker relationships, and increasing our level of loan participations with other financial
institutions. Developing a growing, diversified, fundamentally sound and well-priced loan portfolio is a key strategy. We are also focusing on demand deposit account growth and effective pricing strategies, to lower our cost of funds.



RECENT DEVELOPMENTS



In the third quarter of 2005, the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) and the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (FDIC) released the Bank from the memorandum of understanding (MOU) dated May 23, 2002. The release of the MOU was contingent on the Banks adoption of a resolution that required the Bank to
continue reducing the level of assets classified as substandard, formulate and implement a written Profit Plan, abstain from purchasing additional Bank Owned Life Insurance policies, formalize policies for leveraging strategies, and maintain Tier 1
capital at or above 7% of assets.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and conform to general practices within the banking industry. Our significant accounting policies are described in detail in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements contained in our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2004. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions. Our financial position and results of operations can
be affected by these estimates and assumptions. Therefore, an understanding of these estimates and assumptions is integral to understanding our reported results. Critical accounting policies are those policies that we believe are the most important
to the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and they require us to make estimates that are difficult, subjective or complex.



Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses provides coverage for probable losses in our loan portfolio. We evaluate the adequacy of
the allowance for loan losses each quarter based on changes, if any, in underwriting activities, the loan portfolio composition (including product mix and geographic, industry or customer-specific concentrations), trends in loan performance,
regulatory guidance, asset quality, and economic factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires the use of significant management estimates. Many factors can affect our estimates of specific and expected losses, including
volatility of default probabilities, rating changes, loss severity and economic and political conditions. The allowance is increased through provisions charged to operating earnings and reduced by net charge-offs.



We determine the amount of the allowance based on relative risk
characteristics of the loan portfolio. The allowance recorded for commercial loans is based on reviews of individual credit relationships and actual loss experience. The allowance recorded for other types of loans is based on an analysis of loan
mix, risk characteristics of the portfolio, fraud loss and bankruptcy experiences and historical losses, adjusted for current trends, for each homogeneous category or group of loans. The allowance for loan losses relating to impaired loans is based
on the loans observable market price, the collateral for certain collateral-dependent loans or the discounted cash flows using the loans effective interest rate.

##### Table of Contents

Regardless of the extent of our analysis of customer performance, portfolio trends or risk management
processes, certain inherent but undetected losses are probable within the loan portfolio. This is due to several factors, including inherent delays in obtaining information regarding a customers financial condition or changes in their unique
business conditions, the subjective nature of individual loan evaluations, collateral assessments and the interpretation of economic trends. Volatility of economic or customer-specific conditions affecting the identification and estimation of losses
for larger, non-homogeneous credits and the sensitivity of assumptions utilized to establish allowances for homogenous groups of loans are among other factors that can affect the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses. We estimate a range of
inherent losses related to the existence of these exposures. The estimates are based upon our evaluation of the imprecision of determining the risk associated with the commercial and consumer allowance levels and the estimated impact of the current
economic environment.



Mortgage Servicing Rights.
Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) associated with loans originated and sold, where servicing is retained, are capitalized and included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The value of the capitalized servicing rights
represents the present value of the future servicing fees arising from the right to service loans in the portfolio. Critical accounting policies for MSRs relate to the initial valuation and subsequent impairment tests. The methodology used to
determine the valuation of MSRs requires the development and use of a number of estimates, including anticipated principal amortization and prepayments of that principal balance. Events that may significantly affect the estimates used are changes in
interest rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds and the payment performance of the underlying loans. The carrying value of the MSRs is periodically reviewed for impairment based on a determination of fair value. Impairment, if any, is recognized
through a valuation allowance and is recorded as amortization of intangible assets.



Goodwill and Other Intangibles. We record all assets and liabilities acquired in purchase acquisitions, including goodwill and other intangibles, at fair value as required by SFAS No. 141. Goodwill is
subject, at a minimum, to annual tests for impairment. Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives using straight-line and accelerated methods, and are subject to impairment if events or circumstances indicate a possible
inability to realize the carrying amount. The initial goodwill and other intangibles recorded, and subsequent impairment analysis, requires us to make subjective judgments concerning estimates of how the acquired asset will perform in the future.
Events and factors that may significantly affect the estimates include, among others, customer attrition, changes in revenue growth trends, specific industry conditions and changes in competition.



FINANCIAL CONDITION



Assets totaled $442.2 million at September 30, 2005 compared to $428.6 million at December 31, 2004. The increase
was primarily due to short-term FHLB advances used to fund an increase in the loan portfolio.



Cash balances declined $1.2 million during the first nine months of 2005 primarily as a result of a deposit reclassification program, which enabled us to lower our cash reserves at the Federal Reserve Bank.
Interest-bearing demand deposits declined $2.3 million during the period. The decline reflects the reinvestment of funds from interest-bearing deposits into investment securities and loans. Investments held to maturity were all reclassified as
available for sale in the third quarter of 2005 which resulted in a $158.3 million reduction of investments held to maturity and a $160.3 million increase in investments available for sale. Loans increased $12.7 million during the quarter primarily
due to an increase in commercial real estate and home equity loans. The increase was due to home equity and consumer loan promotions and an increased emphasis on commercial real estate loan production. Other assets increased $2.3 million in the
first nine months of 2005 due to an increase in other nonperforming assets and deferred income taxes. Other nonperforming assets increased $1.0 million in the first nine months of 2005 primarily due to property acquired through foreclosure in the
third quarter of 2005 on a nonperforming commercial real estate loan. Deferred income taxes increased $1.2 million in the first nine months of 2005 due to recording the tax effect of net unrealized losses on the investment portfolio that was
reclassified in the third quarter of 2005 from available for sale to held to maturity.



Noninterest-bearing deposits declined $1.8 million during the first nine months of 2005 primarily due to funds for the $2.3 million settlement with AMICO that was held in escrow at the Bank at the start of the period
and withdrawn in the first quarter of 2005. Interest-bearing deposits decreased $18.3 million during the period primarily from funds withdrawn from interest-bearing checking and money market accounts. Overall deposits declined $20.1 million during
the period. The outflow of funds was primarily the result of highly competitive interest rates for money market and short-term deposit accounts. Borrowings increased $33.6 million during the first nine months of 2005 due to new FHLB advances of $6.8
million reduced by borrowings repaid of $6.1 million and a net increase in short-term advances of $33.0 million. The increase in short-term advances was necessary to fund the increase in loans and decline

in deposits. Other liabilities increased $1.6 million in the first nine months of 2005 primarily due to higher accrued
interest expense for certificates of deposit. We generally pay interest on certificates of deposits every six months in June and December, which is why accrued interest expense was higher at September 30, 2005 compared to December 31,
2004.



Equity decreased $1.9 million during the first nine
months of 2005. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) declined $2.3 million during the period due to investments that were reclassified from held to maturity to available for sale. Investments classified as available for sale are adjusted to
fair value, with the resulting after-tax unrealized gains or losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Investments classified as held to maturity are not generally adjusted to fair value. Other components of equity increased
$459,000. Retained earnings increased $382,000 due to net income of $1.9 million offset by the payment of dividends at $0.48 per share totaling $1.5 million. Common stock and additional paid-in capital increased $77,000 due to stock options
exercised during the period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Third Quarter of 2005 compared to the Third Quarter of 2004



Net income for the third quarter of 2005 was $396,000 or $0.12 per diluted share compared to $412,000 or $0.13 per diluted share for the same period last
year.



Net interest income declined $143,000, or 5.4%, in the
third quarter of 2005 compared to the third quarter of 2004. The decline in net interest income was primarily due to the flattening yield curve, which resulted in short-term interest rates rising faster than longer-term interest rates. Our
interest-bearing liabilities have shorter overall maturities and reprice more frequently to market conditions than our interest-earning assets and, thus, our cost of funds rose quicker than our yield on assets. For a further discussion on interest
rate risk see Item 3  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.



Tax-exempt interest for the third quarter of 2005 was $178,000 compared to $188,000 for the third quarter of 2004. Tax-exempt interest is from
bank-qualified municipal securities. Total interest income on a tax equivalent basis for the third quarter of 2005 increased $485,000 compared to the same period of the prior year. This increase was the result of an increase in yield on
interest-earning assets of 30 basis points due to higher market interest rates and the origination of higher-yielding commercial real estate loans, and a $15.4 million increase in average interest-earning assets. Total interest expense for the third
quarter of 2005 increased $633,000 compared to the same period of the prior year. This increase was the result of an increase in cost of interest-bearing liabilities of 62 basis points and a $9.4 million increase in average interest-bearing
liabilities.

Charge-offs were $1.4
million for the third quarter of 2005 compared to $203,000 for the same period in 2004. The charge-offs included a $750,000 charge-off of a commercial real estate loan for a condominium project in Lafayette, Indiana which was previously reserved,
and a $415,000 charge-off for the foreclosure on a commercial real estate loan to a builder-developer of which $240,000 was previously reserved. Recoveries were $652,000 during the third quarter of 2005 compared to $25,000 for the same period in
2004. The recoveries included a full recovery of $509,000 on a commercial real estate loan previously charged-off in 2004.



The provision for loan losses was $35,000 for the third quarter of 2005 compared to $75,000 for the same period in 2004. The full recovery on the
commercial real estate loan mentioned in the preceding paragraph was the primary reason for the unusually low provision expense in the third quarter of 2005.

Non-performing loans
decreased $2.6 million at September 30, 2005 compared to the previous period. The decrease was primarily due to the aforementioned two commercial real estate loans, one acquired through foreclosure and the second for a condominium project that
was partially charged-off. A third commercial real estate loan was performing at September 30, 2005. The non-accrual loans at September 30, 2005 include the remaining balance of the loan for a condominium project for $1.8 million.



Other non-performing assets increased to $1.5 million at
September 30, 2005 from $494,000 at September 30, 2004. The previously mentioned commercial real estate loan acquired through foreclosure in the third quarter of 2005 was the main reason for the $1.0 million increase.



Other income declined $29,000, or 3.0%, to $949,000 in the third quarter of
2005, compared to the same period in 2004. Other fees and service charges increased $63,000 in the third quarter of 2005 over the prior period. The increase was primarily due to higher deposit service charge income mainly from the Overdraft Honors
program, which began in late 2004. Insurance commissions declined $42,000 in the third quarter of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004 due to a sales decline in insurance contracts. Gain on sale of loans and servicing rights declined $20,000 in
the third quarter of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004, due to a decline in the dollar amount of mortgage loans sold during the period. Mortgage loans sold in the third quarter of 2005 were $2.6 million compared to $5.3 million in the same
period in 2004.



Other expenses decreased $168,000, or 5.2%, to
$3.1 million in the third quarter of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. Salaries and employee benefits declined $169,000 in the third quarter of 2005 compared to the prior period. The primary reason for the decrease was due to lower pension
cost in the third quarter of 2005 as a result of the $1.1 million voluntary payment we made towards our pension plan liability in the first quarter of 2005. Other expenses increased $63,000 in the third quarter of 2005 compared to the prior period
in 2004 mainly due to recruiting expense for our new Chief Credit Officer and higher loan expenses.



Income taxes were a tax benefit of $29,000 for the third quarter of 2005 compared to expense of $81,000 in the prior period. The difference was due to
slightly higher federal taxable income in the third quarter of 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004, and the valuation allowance for state income tax benefits accrued in 2005.



We have a deferred state tax asset that is primarily the result of operating losses in 2004 and 2003 for state tax purposes.
Starting in 2005, we recorded a valuation allowance against our current period state income tax benefit due to our concern that we may not be able to use more than the $800,000 tax asset already recorded on the books without modifying the use of our
investment subsidiary. Operating income from our investment subsidiary, AIMI, is not subject to state income taxes under current state law, and is the primary reason for the tax asset.



Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005 compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004



Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $1.9
million or $0.59 per diluted share compared to $1.3 million or $0.42 per diluted share for the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to lease recoveries of $3.4 million from two lease pools previously charged-off, including a payment
of $2.3 million received during the first quarter in settlement of certain litigation against one of the sureties for the lease pools, partially offset by a voluntary payment of $1.1 million toward our pension plan liability in the first quarter of
2005.

##### Table of Contents

Net interest income declined $768,000, or 9.4%, in the first nine months of 2005 compared to the first
nine months of 2004. Net interest income in the first nine months of 2004 included a $220,000 one-time unfavorable correction for interest owed to Freddie Mac for loans sold from June 2002 to June 2004. Excluding the correction, net interest income
would have declined $988,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. The decline in net interest income was primarily due to the flattening yield curve as a result of short-term interest rates rising
faster than longer-term interest rates.



Tax-exempt interest
for the first nine months of 2005 was $534,000 compared to $481,000 for the first nine months of 2004. Tax-exempt interest is from bank-qualified municipal securities. Total interest income on a tax equivalent basis for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005 increased $717,000 compared to the same period of the prior year. This increase was the result of the aforementioned $220,000 Freddie Mac interest correction in 2004, a $16.7 million increase in average interest-earning
assets and an increase in yield of 3 basis points. Total interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 increased $1.7 million compared to the same period of the prior year. This increase was the result of an increase in cost of
interest-bearing liabilities of 53 basis points and a $14.5 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities.

We had an adjustment
for loan losses of $3.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 primarily as a result of the aforementioned lease recoveries. This compares to a provision expense of $275,000 in the first nine months of 2004. A charge-off in the
first quarter of 2004 of a commercial real-estate loan for $509,000 was fully recovered in the third quarter of 2005. This recovery combined with the lease recoveries made up most of the $4.2 million recovered during the first nine months of 2005.
This compares to recoveries of $113,000 in the first nine months of 2004. We transferred $116,000 from the allowance for loan losses to a new reserve account called the allowance for unfunded commitments.



Other income increased $65,000, or 2.2%, to $3.1 million in the first nine
months of 2005, compared to the same period in 2004. Other fees and service charges increased $198,000 in the first nine months of 2005 over the prior period. The increase was primarily due to higher deposit service charge income mainly from a new
program that allows qualified depositors to overdraw their checking account. Gain on sale of loans and servicing rights declined $113,000 in the first nine months of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004, due to a decline in mortgage loans sold
during the period with $6.5 million in loans originated for sale for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to $17.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Increase in cash surrender value of life insurance was
$91,000 lower in the first nine months of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004, due primarily to lower investment rates. We recorded a gain on sale of land of $177,000 in the first nine months of 2005 from the sale of land we owned which was
adjacent to our branch lot in Greenfield, Indiana and which was not needed for expansion purposes. Other income decreased $46,000 during the period, mainly due to income from investments accounted for using the equity method of accounting.



Other expenses increased $1.5 million, or 15.3%, to $11.3
million in the first nine months of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. The increase was primarily due to the $1.1 million voluntary payment we made towards our pension plan liability in the first quarter of 2005. We also incurred an
additional $93,000 in health insurance premiums to reimburse our health insurance provider for claims in past plan years that were in excess of the annual cap. Professional fees during the period included consulting fees paid to Profit Resources for
$300,000 for a consulting engagement to improve operational efficiencies. We incurred recruiting fees of $88,000 for the recruitment firms used to locate our new Chief Executive Officer and Chief Credit Officer. We also contributed $70,000 in the
first quarter of 2005 to the City of Anderson, Indiana for its downtown revitalization project. The donation was part of an agreement between the City and a group of banks, including Ameriana, where the City paid off loans secured by commercial
buildings in downtown Anderson.

Income taxes were $294,000 for the first nine months of 2005 compared to a tax benefit of $205,000 in the
prior period. The difference was due to higher federal taxable income in the first nine months of 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004, and the valuation allowance for state income tax benefits accrued in 2005.



OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS



In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial
transactions that, in accordance with GAAP, are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage
customers requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit.



For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on
our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.



LIQUIDITY AND
CAPITAL RESOURCES



Liquidity is the ability to meet
current and future obligations of a short-term nature. Historically, funds provided by operations, loan repayments and new deposits have been our principal sources of liquid funds. In addition, we have the ability to obtain funds through the sale of
new mortgage loans and through borrowings from the FHLB system. We regularly adjust the investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of (1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on
interest-earning deposits and securities and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability program.



At September 30, 2005, we had $21.5 million in loan commitments outstanding and $25.9 million of additional commitments for line of credit
receivables. Certificates of deposit due within one year of September 30, 2005 totaled $101.1 million, or 31.2% of total deposits. If these maturing certificates of deposit do not remain with us, other sources of funds must be used, including
other certificates of deposit and borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than currently paid on the certificates of deposit due on or before September 30, 2006.
However, based on past experiences we believe that a significant portion of the certificates of deposit will remain. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.



Our primary investing activities are the origination of loans and purchase of
securities. In the first nine months of 2005, we originated $96.9 million of loans and purchased $15.2 million of securities. In the first nine months of 2004, we originated $81.6 million of loans and purchased $70.8 million of securities.



Financing activities consist primarily of activity in deposit
accounts and in FHLB advances. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by the Bank and our local competitors and other factors. Deposits decreased $20.1 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2005. We had FHLB advances of $73.7 million and $50.8 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.



The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements set by the FDIC including a risk-based capital measure. The Company is also subject to
similar capital requirements set by the Federal Reserve Bank. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items
to broad risk categories. At September 30, 2005, both the Company and the Bank exceeded all of regulatory capital requirements and are considered well capitalized under regulatory guidelines.

RECENT ACCOUNTING ISSUES



In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an amendment to SFAS 123 (SFAS 123R) which eliminates
the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using APB Opinion No. 25 and generally requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value based method. The effective date of SFAS No. 123R is the beginning
of our next fiscal year, January 1, 2006. SFAS 123R applies to all awards granted after the required effective date and to awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after that date. The cumulative effect of initially applying this Statement, if
any, is recognized as of the required effective date.



As of
the required effective date, we will apply SFAS 123R using either the modified version of prospective application or the modified version of retrospective application. Under the prospective transition method, compensation cost is recognized on or
after the required effective date for the portion of outstanding awards for which the requisite service has not yet been rendered, based on the grant-date fair value of those awards calculated under SFAS 123 for either recognition or pro-forma
disclosures. For periods before the required effective date, a company may elect to apply a modified version of retrospective application under which financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro-forma
disclosures required for those periods by SFAS 123.



We are
currently evaluating the effect of the recognition and measurement provisions of SFAS 123R but believe the adoption of SFAS 123R will not result in a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.



In 2005, the FASB decided not to provide additional guidance on the meaning
of other-than-temporary impairment, but directed the FASB staff to issue a staff position (FSP), which is re-titled FSP 115-1 The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. The final FSP
supersedes EITF Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments, and EITF Topic No. D-44, Recognition of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment upon the Planned Sale of a
Security Whose Cost Exceeds Fair Value. FSP FAS 115-1 replaces guidance in EITF Issue 03-1 on loss recognition with references to existing other-than-temporary impairment guidance, such as FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. FSP FAS 115-1 clarifies that an investor should recognize an impairment loss no later than when the impairment is deemed other than temporary, even if a decision to sell has not been made.



FSP FAS 115-1 is effective for other-than-temporary impairment
analysis conducted in periods beginning after September 15, 2005. The Company has consistently followed the loss recognition guidance in SFAS No. 115, so the adoption of FSP FAS 115-1 will not have any significant impact on the
Companys financial condition or results of operation.

ITEM 3  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK



We are subject to interest rate risk to the degree that our interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and borrowings from the FHLB, mature or
reprice at different rates than our interest-earning assets. Although having liabilities that mature or reprice more frequently on average than assets may not be beneficial in times of rising interest rates, such an asset/liability structure could
result in higher net income during periods of declining interest rates, unless offset by other factors.



The Asset-Liability Management Committee and the Board of Directors review our exposure to interest rate changes and market risk on a quarterly basis.
This review is accomplished by the use of a cash flow simulation model using detailed securities, loan, deposit, borrowings and market information to estimate fair values of assets and liabilities using discounted cash flows. The difference between
our estimated fair value of assets and the estimated fair value of liabilities is the fair value of equity, also referred to as net portfolio value of equity (NPV). The change in the NPV is calculated at different interest rate
intervals. This tests the interest rate risk exposure from movements in interest rates to determine the change in our NPV. The model also tests the impact various interest rate scenarios have on net interest income and net income over a stated
period of time (one year, for example).



The model uses a
number of assumptions, including the relative levels of market interest rates and prepayments or extension in maturity and repayment in loans, mortgage backed securities and collateral mortgage obligations, and certain types of callable investments.
These computations do not contemplate actions we may undertake to reposition the assets and liabilities, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. In addition, certain shortcomings are inherent in the model of computing NPV.
Should interest rates remain or decrease below present levels, the portion of adjustable-rate loans could decrease in future periods due to loan refinancing or payoff activity. If interest rates change, pre-payment levels would likely be different
from those assumed in the model and the ability of borrowers to repay their adjustable-rate loans may decrease during rising interest rate environments.



The information below provides estimated changes to our NPV in the event of sudden and sustained 200 basis point increases and decreases in the prevailing
interest rates as of September 30, 2005.

The change in our net portfolio value at September 30, 2005 compared to

ITEM 4  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information
required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and
(2) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers as appropriate to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that the design of our
disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon certain reasonable assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no reasonable assurance that any design of disclosure controls and procedures will succeed in achieving
its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote, but our principal executive and financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are, in fact, effective at a reasonable assurance level.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION



ITEM 1 - Legal Proceedings



As previously reported, the Bank has been involved in litigation relating to its interests in the two pools of equipment leases originated by Commercial Money Center, Inc. (CMC), a California-based equipment leasing company that
is now in bankruptcy.



The Bank purchased the income streams
from two pools of commercial leases totaling $12,003,000. Each lease within each pool was supported by a surety bond issued by either American Motorist Insurance Company (AMICO) or RLI Insurance Company (RLI). Each pool was
sold by the terms of a Sales and Servicing Agreement which provides that the insurers will service the leases. In each case the insurers have assigned their servicing rights and responsibilities to Commercial Servicing Corporation (CSC),
a company which has filed for bankruptcy. The pool purchased in June 2001 contained 53 leases, each of which was bonded by RLI. The pool purchased in September 2001 contained 40 leases, each of which was bonded by AMICO. When the lease pools went
into default, notice was given to each insurer. One of them made payments for a few months under a reservation of rights; the other paid nothing. Both insurers claim they were defrauded by CMC, the Company that sold the lease pools. Both were now
denying responsibility for payment. CMC also filed for bankruptcy protection. The Bank believes the surety bonds are enforceable against the insurers. The unpaid balance for the pools was $10,900,000, of which approximately 50% was guaranteed by
AMICO and approximately 50% was guaranteed by RLI.



The Bank
has now settled its litigation with AMICO for $2.3 million. That sum was paid to the Bank in the first quarter of 2005 and the litigation between the Bank and AMICO was dismissed. The litigation involving the RLI pool continues in proceedings in the
Northern District of Ohio (Cleveland). The Bank sought to dispose of the litigation favorably by filing a preliminary motion. That motion has now been overruled and the Court has indicated its intent to order the parties to mediation in the very
near future.



The related litigation involving the CMC/CSC
bankruptcies has now been resolved as previously reported. As part of that settlement, the Trustee has abandoned any right to the payments being made by lessees in the RLI pool. Those lessees continue to pay and the Bank is receiving approximately
$8,000 each month from the lessees. It is the Banks intent to continue to aggressively pursue its claims against RLI for the principal and interest owed plus attorney fees, litigation expenses, damages, etc. The principal amount owed by RLI
(excluding attorney fees, litigation expenses, damages, interest, etc.) is now approximately $4.9 million.
