The Company and its Parent are holding companies that are federally chartered. The Companys sole subsidiary, Kaiser Federal Bank (or the Bank), is a federally chartered savings association, which provides retail and commercial banking services to individuals and business customers from its six branch locations throughout California. While the Bank originates all types of retail and commercial real estate loans, the majority of its residential real estate loans have been purchased from other financial institutions.  The Companys business activities generally are limited to passive investment activities and oversight of our investment in the Bank. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the Company include the Bank and the Company on a consolidated basis.  Basis of Presentation:The financial statements of K-Fed Bancorp have been prepared in conformity with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and predominant practices followed by the financial services industry, and are unaudited. In the opinion of the Companys management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods included herein have been made.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Companys annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Principles of Consolidation:The consolidated financial statements presented in this quarterly report include the accounts of K-Fed Bancorp and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kaiser Federal Bank. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Use of Estimates:The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions are considered reasonably possible and may have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and thus actual results could differ from the amounts reported and disclosed herein. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of financial instruments, and mortgage-loan prepayment assumptions used to determine the effective
interest amortization of loan purchase premiums and discounts.  Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards:In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48,Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes(FIN 48) which supplements SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes,by defining the confidence level that a tax position must meet in order to be recognized in the financial statements. The Interpretation requires that the tax effects of a position be recognized only if it is more-likely-than-not to be sustained based solely on its technical merits as of the reporting date. The more-likely-than-not threshold represents a positive assertion by management that a company is entitled to economic benefits of a tax position. If a tax position is not considered more-likely-than-not to be sustained based solely
on its technical merits, no benefits of the position are to be recognized. Moreover, the more-likely-than-not threshold must continue to be met in each reporting period to support continued recognition of a benefit.  At adoption, companies must adjust their financial statements to reflect only those tax positions that are more-likely-than-not to be sustained as of the adoption date. Any necessary adjustment would be recorded directly to retained earnings in the period of adoption and reported as a change in accounting principle.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  We do not expect the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.  5        Table of contents  In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements which clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on  the  assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability  and  establishes  a  fair  value  hierarchy that prioritizes the information  used  to  develop  those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurement would be separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal  years  beginning  after November 15, 2007 (January 1, 2008 for us), and  interim  periods  within  those  fiscal  years,  with  early  adoption permitted.  We do not expect the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.  In  September  2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 Considering  the  Effects  of  Prior  Year  Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements  in  Current  Year Financial Statements (SAB 108). SAB 108 requires the evaluation of prior-year misstatements using both the balance sheet approach and the income statement approach. In the initial year of adoption should either approach result in quantifying an error that is material in light of quantitative and qualitative factors, SAB 108 guidance allows for a one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings.  In years subsequent to adoption, previously undetected misstatements deemed material shall result in the restatement of previously issued financial statements in accordance with FAS 154.  SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending on or after November 15, 2006.  We do not expect the adoption of
this standard will have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.  Under  Emerging  Issues  Task  Force  (EITF)  06-4:  Accounting for deferred  compensation  and  postretirement  benefit aspects of endorsement split dollar life insurance arrangements, the EITF reached a consensus that requires  the  recognition  of  a  liability  related to the postretirement benefits covered by an endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangement.  The consensus highlights that the employer who is the policy holder has a liability for the benefit it is providing to the employee. The employer has agreed to maintain the insurance policy in force for the employee's benefit during retirement, then the liability recognized during the employee's active service period should be based on the future cost of insurance to be incurred during the employee's retirement. Also, if the employer has agreed to provide the employee with a death benefit, then the liability for the future death
benefit should be recognized under SFAS 106. As of September 20, 2006, this FASB board ratified the above. It is applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. We do not expect the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.  Under EITF 06-5: Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance - Determining the Amount That Could be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4, "Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance", the Task Force reached a consensus that a policyholder should consider any additional amounts included in the contractual terms of the policy in determining the amount that could be realized under the insurance contract.  The task forces agreed that contractual limitations should be considered when determining the realizable amounts. Those amounts that are recoverable by the policyholder at the discretion of the insurance company should be excluded from the amount that could be realized. The task force also agreed that fixed amounts that are recoverable by the policyholder in future periods in excess of one year from the surrender of the policy should be recognized at their present value. The task force
also reached a consensus that a policyholder should determine the amount that could be realized under the life insurance contract assuming the surrender of an individual -life by individual life policy. The Task force also noted that any amount that is ultimately realized by the policyholder upon the assumed surrender of the final policy shall be included in the amount that could be realized under the insurance contract. The issue should be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, but early adoption is permitted. This was ratified at the Task Force, September 20, 2006 meeting.  We do not expect the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.   6        Table of contents  Note 2 Employee Stock Ownership Plan  In connection with the stock offering of the Company in 2004, the Bank established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for the benefit of its employees. The Company issued 454,940 shares of common stock to the ESOP in exchange for a ten-year note in the amount of approximately $4.5 million. The $4.5 million loan for the ESOP purchase was borrowed from the Company.  Shares issued to the ESOP are allocated to ESOP participants based on principal and interest payments made by the ESOP on the loan from the Company. The loan is secured by shares purchased with the loan proceeds and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from the Companys contributions to the ESOP and earnings on ESOP assets. The $4.5 million loan for the ESOP purchase was borrowed from the Company and requires quarterly payments to be made by the Bank of approximately $139,000, which represents principal plus interest at 4.00%.  As shares are released from collateral, the Company will report compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares and the shares will become outstanding for earnings-per-share (EPS) computations. Dividends on allocated ESOP shares reduce retained earnings; dividends on unearned ESOP shares reduce accrued interest expense.  Note 3 Employee Stock Compensation  Stock Option Plan (SOP). The Companys SOP provides for issue of options to directors, officers and employees.  Pursuant to the Companys 2004 SOP, 568,675 shares of the Companys common stock may be awarded.  Under the SOP, options become exercisable in equal installments over a five-year period from the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant.  Compensation expense, net of tax effects related to the SOP was $9,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 and $88,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2006.  Compensation expense, net of tax effects related to the SOP was $82,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005 and $165,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2005.  The reduction in compensation expense related to stock options for the three and six months ended December 31, 2006 was attributable to forfeitures.
There were 40,000 and 62,000 shares of stock options granted during the three and six months ended December 31, 2006, respectively.  A summary of stock option activity follows:  Three months endedDecember 31, 2006

Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the shares based on the market value at date of grant.  These shares vest over a five year period.  Compensation expense related to the RRP awards was $69,000 and $134,000 for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2006, respectively.  Compensation expense related to the RRP awards was $116,000 and $231,000 for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2005, respectively.  The reduction in compensation expense related to RRPs for the three and six months ended December 31, 2006 was attributable to forfeitures.

        MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  Forward-Looking Information  This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements and information relating to the Company and the Bank that are based on the beliefs of management as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to management. In addition, in portions of this document the words anticipate, believe, estimate, expect, intend, should and similar expressions or the negative thereof, as they relate to the Company or the Bank or their management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current views of the Company and/or the Bank with respect to forward-looking events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary
materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated, expected or intended. The Company does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.  Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2006 and June 30, 2006.  Assets:Cash and cash equivalents increased $8.9 million, or 34.9% to $34.5 million at December 31, 2006 from $25.6 million at June 30, 2006. The increase related to federal funds sold, which increased $4.5 million to $22.8 million at December 31, 2006 from $18.3 million at June 30, 2006 and cash and cash equivalents which increased $4.5 million to $11.7 million at December 31, 2006 from $7.2 million at June 30, 2006.  Our investment portfolio decreased $2.3 million, or 6.5%, to $33.7 million at December 31, 2006 from $36.0 million at June 30, 2006. The decrease was attributable to normal repayments of principal on our mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations.  Our net loan portfolio increased $36.5 million, or 5.8%, to $670.6 million at December 31, 2006 from $634.1 million at June 30, 2006. One-to-four family real estate loans increased $17.7 million, or 4.1% to $454.7 million at December 31, 2006 from $437.0 million at June 30, 2006.  Commercial real estate loans increased $8.5 million, or 14.5% to $67.4 million at December 31, 2006 from $58.9 million at June 30, 2006.  Multifamily loans increased $0.1 million to $89.3 million at December 31, 2006 from $89.2 million at June 30, 2006.  Other loans which was comprised mostly of auto loans increased $10.3 million, or 19.8% to $62.0 million at December 31, 2006 from $51.7 million at June 30, 2006 The overall loan mix remained relatively constant, with real estate loans comprising 90.8% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2006, compared with 91.9% at June 30, 2006.  Deposits:Total deposits increased $28.5 million, or 6.2%, to $492.0 million at December 31, 2006 from $463.5 million at June 30, 2006. This increase was primarily due to increases of $4.8 million in checking accounts, $27.7 million in savings accounts and $11.8 million in certificates of deposits.  These increases were offset by reductions of $15.8 million in money market accounts.  Savings account balances grew as a result of a tiered, high yield product introduced in September and October 2006.  Certificates of deposit balances grew as a result of higher yield, short term products introduced in October 2006.  Borrowings:Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco increased $10.1 million, or 5.6% to $190.0 million at December 31, 2006 from $179.9 million at June 30, 2006.  This increase in FHLB borrowings was to fund loan growth during the period. The Company interchanges the use of deposits and borrowings to fund assets depending on various factors including liquidity and asset/liability management strategies.   10        Table of contents  Stockholders Equity:Stockholders equity decreased $360,000 to $92.3 million at December 31, 2006 from $92.7 million at June 30, 2006.

General.Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $1.1 million, a decrease of $177,000, or 13.4%, compared to net income of $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005. Earnings per basic and diluted common share were $0.08 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 compared to $0.10 for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The change in net income resulted from the fluctuations described below.  Interest Income.Interest income increased by $1.2 million or 13.7%, to $10.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $9.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The primary factor for the increase in interest income was an increase in the average loans receivable balance of $21.6 million or 3.5%, from $617.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005 to $639.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. This increase was primarily due to whole loan purchases of one-to-four family residential real estate loans. Interest income was also positively impacted by a 35 basis point increase in the average yield on loans receivable, from 5.35% for the three months ended December 31, 2005 to 5.70% for the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase was primarily attributable to the addition of higher-yielding single-family loans
to our portfolio, commensurate with increases in general market rates.  Interest income on securities decreased by $65,000 or 16.2%, to $336,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $401,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The decrease resulted from a $11.4 million, or 25.0% decrease in the average balance of securities as a result of principal repayments. The decrease was partially offset by an 41 basis point increase in the average yield on the securities investment portfolio from 3.52% for the three months ended December 31, 2005 to 3.93% for the three months ended December 31, 2006, commensurate with increases in general market rates.  Other interest income increased by $372,000 or 124.4% to $671,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $299,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005.  The increase was attributable to an increase in the average balance of fed funds sold of $22.5 million or 96.7%, from $23.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005 to $45.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase in fed funds was attributable to deposit growth during the comparable periods. Interest income was also positively impacted by a 188 basis point increase in the average yield earned on fed funds sold, from 3.27% for the three months ended December 31, 2006 to 5.15% for the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase was primarily attributable to increases in general market rates.  Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.4 million, or 32.3%, for the three months ended December 31, 2006 to $5.9 million as compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in average deposits and FHLB advances, combined with higher interest rates. The average interest rates on interest-bearing liabilities increased 73 basis points to 3.72% for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from 2.99% for the three months ended December 31, 2005. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $37.7 million or 6.4% to $629.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $591.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005.  Net Interest Income.  Net income before provision for loan losses decreased $198,000 or 4.3%, from $4.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 to $4.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The decline was attributable to continued compression in out net interest margin as a result of the continued flattening of the yield curve.  As a result, the net interest margin decreased 22 basis points from 2.60% for the three months ended December 31, 2005 to 2.38% for the three months ended December 31, 2006. Provision for Loan Losses.We maintain an allowance for loan losses to absorb probable incurred losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on ongoing, quarterly assessments of the probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Our methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance consists of several key elements, which include loss ratio analysis by type of loan and specific allowances for identified problem loans, including the results of measuring impaired loans as provided in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan and SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan  Income Recognition and Disclosures.  These accounting standards prescribe the measurement methods, income
recognition and disclosures related to impaired loans.   13        Table of contents The loss ratio analysis component of the allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to outstanding loans based on the internal risk evaluation of the loans or pools of loans. Changes in risk evaluations of both performing and nonperforming loans affect the amount of the formula allowance. Loss factors are based both on our historical loss experience as well as on significant factors that, in managements judgment, affect the collectibility of the portfolio as of the evaluation date. The appropriateness of the allowance is reviewed and established by management based upon its evaluation of then-existing economic and business conditions affecting our key lending areas and other conditions, such as credit quality trends (including trends in nonperforming loans expected to result from existing conditions), collateral values, loan volumes and concentrations, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments and recent loss experience in particular segments of the portfolio that existed as of the balance sheet date and the impact that such conditions were believed to have had on the collectibility of the loan. Senior management reviews these conditions quarterly in discussions with our senior credit officers. To the extent that any of these conditions is evidenced by a specifically identifiable problem credit or portfolio segment as of the evaluation date, managements estimate of
the effect of such condition may be reflected as a specific allowance applicable to such credit or portfolio segment. Where any of these conditions is not evidenced by a specifically identifiable problem credit or portfolio segment as of the evaluation date, managements evaluation of the loss related to this condition is reflected in the general allowance. The evaluation of the inherent loss with respect to these conditions is subject to a higher degree of uncertainty because they are not identified with specific problem credits or portfolio segments.  Management also evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on a review of individual loans, historical loan loss experience, the value and adequacy of collateral and economic conditions in our market area. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to significant change. For all specifically reviewed loans for which it is probable that Kaiser Federal Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the loan agreement, Kaiser Federal Bank determines impairment by computing a fair value either based on discounted cash flows using the loans initial interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogenous loans that are collectively
evaluated for impairment and are excluded from specific impairment evaluation, and their allowance for loan losses is calculated in accordance with the allowance for loan losses policy described above. Because the allowance for loan losses is based on estimates of losses inherent in the loan portfolio, actual losses can vary significantly from the estimated amounts. Our methodology as described above permits adjustments to any loss factor used in the computation of the formula allowance in the event that, in managements judgment, significant factors which affect the collectibility of the portfolio as of the evaluation date are not reflected in the loss factors. By assessing the estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis, we are able to adjust specific and inherent loss estimates based upon any more recent information that has become available. In addition, managements determination as to the amount of our allowance for loan losses is subject to review by the Office of Thrift Supervision and the FDIC, which may require the establishment of additional general or
specific allowances based upon their judgment of the information available to them at the time of their examination of Kaiser Federal Bank.  Our provision for loan losses was $180,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 compared to $195,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005.  The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 0.44% at December 31, 2006 as compared to 0.43% at June 30, 2006. The assumptions are based both on current industry and economic trends in addition to incurring no losses within our real estate portfolio since 1997.  We used the same methodology and generally similar assumptions in assessing the adequacy of the allowance for consumer and real estate loans for both periods.  Noninterest Income.Our noninterest income increased $58,000, or 6.1%, to $1.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $951,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily the result of fee and transaction income related to the deployment of additional ATMs.  Noninterest Expense.Our noninterest expense increased $282,000, or 8.6% to $3.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $3.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily due to a $92,000 increase in salaries and benefits, an $88,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense and a $59,000 increase in other operating expense.  14        Table of contents  Salaries and benefits represented 53.7% of total noninterest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2006 compared to 55.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2005. Total salaries and benefits increased $92,000, or 5.1%, to $1.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $1.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $109,000 in compensation commensurate with annual salary increases, a $61,000 increase in fair market value costs related to our employee stock ownership plan offset by a $79,000 reduction in stock option expense as a result of forfeitures.  Occupancy and equipment expense increased $88,000, or 20.9% to $510,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $422,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily due to costs associated with non-capitalizable costs and lease expense related to build-outs of financial service centers in Bellflower, Harbor City, Los Angeles and Riverside opened during the periods of March 2006 through July 2006 in addition to increased equipment maintenance expense.  Other operating expense increased $5,000 to $383,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 from $324,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The increase in other expense was primarily due to increased operational costs to support continued growth of the Bank.  Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $537,000 compared to $767,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005. This decrease was primarily the result of lower pre-tax income of $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005. The effective tax rate was 31.9% and 36.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The effective tax rate decreased due to a certainty realized in one uncertain tax position taken by management.  As such, management recognized a benefit of approximately, $80,000.  Absent this adjustment, the effective tax rate would have been 36.7%.  Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2006.  General.Net income for the six months ended December 31, 2006 was $2.5 million, an increase of $84,000 or 3.5%, compared to $2.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 and six months ended December 31, 2005. Earnings per basic and diluted common share were $0.18 for the six months ended December 31, 2006 compared to $0.17 for six months ended December 31, 2005.  The change in net income resulted from the fluctuations described below.  Interest Income.Interest income increased by $3.3 million, or 19.6%, to $20.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006 from $16.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The primary factor for the increase in interest income was an increase in the average loans receivable balance of $51.6 million, or 9.6%, from $584.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 to $636.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006. The increase was primarily due to whole loan purchases of one-to-four family residential real estate loans. Interest income was also positively impacted by a 43 basis point increase in the average yield on loans receivable, from 5.23% for the six months ended December 31, 2005 to 5.66% for the six months ended December 31, 2006.  Interest income on securities decreased by $143,000 or 17.3%, to $684,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2006 from $827,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The decrease resulted from an $12.1 million, or 25.8% decrease in the average balance of securities as a result of principal repayments. The decrease was partially offset by a 40 basis point increase in the average yield on the securities investment portfolio from 3.93% for the six months ended December 31, 2006 to 3.53% for the six months ended December 31, 2005.  Other interest income increased by $544,000 or 111.5% to $1.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006 from $488,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2005.  The increase was attributable to an increase in the average balance of fed funds sold of $15.1 million or 86.9%, from $17.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 to $32.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase in fed funds was attributable to deposit growth during the comparable periods. Interest income was also positively impacted by a 153 basis point increase in the average yield earned on fed funds sold, from 3.62% for the six months ended December 31, 2006 to 5.15% for the six months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase was primarily attributable to increases in general market rates.   15        Table of contents  Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $3.3 million, or 42.2%, for the six months ended December 31, 2006 to $11.0 million as compared to $7.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in average deposits and FHLB advances, combined with higher interest rates. The average interest rates on interest-bearing liabilities increased 74 basis points to 3.54% for the six months ended December 31, 2006 from 2.80% for the six months ended December 31, 2005. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $68.2 million or 12.3% to $621.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006 from $553.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006.  Provision for Loan Losses. Our provision for loan losses was $303,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2006 compared to $360,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The decrease in provision is attributable to continued low levels of charge-offs, adjustments made for current peer ratios and changes in other economic factors affecting the loan loss analysis.  We used the same methodology and generally similar assumptions in assessing the adequacy of the allowance for consumer and real estate loans for both periods.  Noninterest Income.Our noninterest income increased $391,000, or 23.1%, to $2.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 from $1.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The increase is primarily the result of a $286,000 reduction in the loss on our equity investment in a California Affordable Housing Program tax credit fund, a $47,000 increase in service charges and fees and a $36,000 increase in fee and transaction income related to the deployment of additional ATMs.  Noninterest Expense.Our noninterest expense increased $403,000, or 6.1%, to $7.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005 from $6.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily due to an $112,000 increase in salaries and benefits, a $216,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense and a $79,000 increase in other operating expense.  Salaries and benefits represented 53.1% and 54.7% of total noninterest expense for the six months ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Total salaries and benefits increased $112,000, or 3.1%, to $3.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006 from $3.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $200,000 in compensation commensurate with annual salary increases, a $82,000 increase in fair market value costs related to our employee stock ownership plan offset by a $180,000 reduction in stock option expense and stock awards as a result of forfeitures.  Occupancy and equipment expense increased $216,000 to $1.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006 from $814,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily due to costs associated with non-capitalizable costs and lease expense related to build-outs of financial service centers in Bellflower, Harbor City, Los Angeles and Riverside opened during the periods of March 2006 through July 2006 in addition to increased equipment maintenance expense.  Other operating expense increased $79,000 to $755,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2006 from $676,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2005. The increase in other expense was primarily due to increased operational costs to support continued growth of the Bank.  Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $1.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006 compared to $1.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005.  The effective tax rate was 34.9% and 36.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2005, respectively.  The effective tax rate decreased due to a certainty realized in one uncertain tax position taken by management.  As such, management recognized a benefit of approximately, $80,000.  Absent this adjustment, the effective tax rate would have been 37.0%.  Liquidity and Commitments  Liquidity may increase or decrease depending upon the availability of funds and comparative yields on investments in relation to the return on loans. Historically, we have maintained liquid assets at levels above the minimum requirements imposed by Office of Thrift Supervision regulations and above levels believed to be adequate to meet the requirements of normal operations, including potential deposit outflows. Cash flow projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity is maintained. See Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows contained in the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this document.  16        Table of contents  Our liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents and mortgage-backed and related securities, is a product of operating, investing and financing activities. Our primary sources of funds are deposits; amortization, prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-backed and related securities, and other short-term investments; and funds provided from operations. While scheduled payments from the amortization of loans and mortgage-backed related securities and maturing investment securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition. In addition, we invest excess funds in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements. We also generate cash through borrowings. We utilize Federal Home Loan Bank advances
to leverage our capital base and provide funds for our lending and investment activities and enhance our interest rate risk management.  Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as overnight deposits. On a longer-term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products. We use our sources of funds primarily to meet ongoing commitments, to pay maturing time deposits and savings withdrawals, to fund loan commitments and to maintain our portfolio of mortgage-backed and related securities. At December 31, 2006, the total approved loan commitments unfunded amounted to $7.4 million, which includes the unadvanced portion of loans of $7.0 million.  Time deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2006, totaled $121.3 million and $10.0 million, respectively. Based on historical experience, management believes that a significant portion of maturing deposits will remain with Kaiser Federal Bank. We anticipate that we will continue to have sufficient funds, through deposits and borrowings, to meet our current commitments.  At December 31, 2006, we had available additional advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco in the amount of $106.6 million.  Kaiser Federal Banks credit limit with the Federal Home Loan Bank is limited to 40 percent of the Banks total assets.  Capital  The table below sets forth Kaiser Federal Banks capital position relative to its Office of Thrift Supervision capital requirements at December 31, 2006.

        5.00  Consistent with our goal to operate a sound and profitable financial organization, we actively seek to maintain a well capitalized institution in accordance with regulatory standards.  At December 31, 2006, Kaiser Federal Bank was a well-capitalized institution under regulatory standards.  Impact of Inflation  The consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. These principles require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.    17        Table of contents  Our primary assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on our performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates, however, do not necessarily move in the same direction or with the same magnitude as the price of goods and services, since such prices are affected by inflation. In a period of rapidly rising interest rates, the liquidity and maturity structure of our assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels.  The principal effect of inflation, as distinct from levels of interest rates, on earnings is in the area of noninterest expense. Such expense items as employee compensation, employee benefits and occupancy and equipment costs may be subject to increases as a result of inflation. An additional effect of inflation is the possible increase in the dollar value of the collateral securing loans that we have made. We are unable to determine the extent, if any, to which properties securing our loans have appreciated in dollar value due to inflation.  ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk  Our Risk When Interest Rates Change.The rates of interest we earn on assets and pay on liabilities generally are established contractually for a period of time. Market interest rates change over time. Our loans generally have longer maturities than our deposits. Accordingly, our results of operations, like those of other financial institutions, are impacted by changes in interest rates and the interest rate sensitivity of our assets and liabilities. The risk associated with changes in interest rates and our ability to adapt to these changes is known as interest rate risk and is our most significant market risk.  How We Measure Our Risk of Interest Rate Changes.As part of our attempt to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates and comply with applicable regulations, we monitor our interest rate risk. In monitoring interest rate risk we continually analyze and manage assets and liabilities based on their payment streams and interest rates, the timing of their maturities, and their sensitivity to actual or potential changes in market interest rates.  In order to minimize the potential for adverse effects of material and prolonged increases in interest rates on our results of operations, we have adopted investment/asset and liability management policies to better match the maturities and repricing terms of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The board of directors sets and recommends the asset and liability policies of Kaiser Federal Bank, which are implemented by the asset/liability management committee.  The purpose of the asset/liability management committee is to communicate, coordinate and control asset/liability management consistent with our business plan and board approved policies. The committee establishes and monitors the volume and mix of assets and funding sources taking into account relative costs and spreads, interest rate sensitivity and liquidity needs. The objectives are to manage assets and funding sources to produce results that are consistent with liquidity, capital adequacy, growth, risk and profitability goals.  The asset/liability management committee generally meets on a weekly basis to review, among other things, economic conditions and interest rate outlook, current and projected liquidity needs and capital position, anticipated changes in the volume and mix of assets and liabilities and interest rate risk exposure limits versus current projections pursuant to net present value of portfolio equity analysis and income simulations. The asset/liability management committee regularly reviews interest rate risk by forecasting the impact of alternative interest rate environments on net interest income and market value of portfolio equity, which is defined as the net present value of an institutions existing assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet instruments, and evaluating such impacts against the maximum potential changes in net interest income and market value of portfolio equity that are authorized by the
board of directors of Kaiser Federal Bank. The asset/liability management committee recommends appropriate strategy changes based on this review. The chairman or his designee is responsible for reviewing and reporting on the effects of the policy implementations and strategies to the board of directors at least quarterly.  In order to manage our assets and liabilities and achieve the desired liquidity, credit quality, interest rate risk, profitability and capital targets, we have focused our strategies on: (1) originating and purchasing adjustable rate loans; (2) originating a reasonable volume of short- and intermediate-term consumer loans; (3) managing our deposits to establish stable deposit relationships; and (4) using Federal Home Loan Bank advances, and pricing on fixed-term non-core deposits to align maturities and repricing terms.   18        Table of contents  At times, depending on the level of general interest rates, the relationship between long- and short-term interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the asset/liability management committee may determine to increase our interest rate risk position somewhat in order to maintain our net interest margin. In the future, we intend to continue our existing strategy of originating and purchasing relatively short-term and/or adjustable rate loans. The Bank does not maintain any securities for trading purposes. The Bank does not currently engage in trading activities or use instruments such as interest rate swaps, hedges, or other similar derivatives to control interest rate risk.  The Office of Thrift Supervision provides Kaiser Federal Bank with the information presented in the following table, which is based on information provided to the Office of Thrift Supervision by Kaiser Federal Bank. It presents the change in Kaiser Federal Banks net portfolio value at September 30, 2006 that would occur upon an immediate change in interest rates based on Office of Thrift Supervision assumptions but without giving effect to any steps that management might take to counteract that change.

        )  The Office of Thrift Supervision uses certain assumptions in assessing the interest rate risk of savings associations. These assumptions relate to interest rates, loan prepayment rates, deposit decay rates, and the market values of certain assets under differing interest rate scenarios.  As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing tables. For example, although assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in the market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate mortgage loans, have features, that restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Further, if interest rates change, expected rates of prepayments on loans and early withdrawals from certificates of deposit could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table.  ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures  Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the Companys management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs
rules and forms.  There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15(d)-15(f) under the Act) that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  19        Table of contents  PART II.
