                          A LOOK AT THE PAST FIVE YEARS


This is our fifth Annual Report since the completion of our stock conversion on
December 30, 1992.  At this time, we thought it would be appropriate to provide
our shareholders with a review of the performance of their investment in PVF
Capital Corp.  On July 30, 1997, the Board of Directors declared a 10% stock
dividend to be distributed on September 1, 1997.  Taking this stock dividend and
all previous stock dividends and stock splits into account, for every 100 shares
of stock purchased at $10.00 per share at the time of our stock conversion, the
purchaser would own 299 shares with a per share market value of $16.48 at June
30, 1997.  On September 1, 1997, PVF Capital Corp. common stock opened for
trading at $20.25 per share.  The table below fully illustrates the performance
of the stock over this 4 1/2 year period.

For the past five years, THE CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER has published a complete
business section on the 100 Top Performing Companies in the State of Ohio.  The
Board of Directors and management are very pleased to inform our shareholders
that PVF Capital Corp. was on this select list in both 1997 and 1996.

                               TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS


     The last fiscal year was highlighted by the resolution of the Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") dilemma that had been the subject of
political debate between the Administration and Congress for several years.
Legislation pertaining to SAIF was finally passed and went into effect on
September 30, 1996. In brief, the savings accounts held principally by  the
thrift industry were assessed 65.7 cents for every $100 of savings deposits in
each institution. This one-time assessment brought the fund to a fully paid-up
status. The SAIF legislation provides for the merger of SAIF with the Bank
Insurance Fund by the end of 1999.

     Park View Federal's pre-tax share of the assessment was $1,708,000, or
$1,127,000 after tax. This exceeded our first quarter net income by $11,000.
However, the resulting future reduction of SAIF premiums by 16.7 cents per $100
of deposits will represent annual cost savings to future earnings of
approximately $500,000.

     We are pleased to inform our shareholders and customers of some recent and
upcoming events. We will be opening a new branch office in Chardon, Ohio, within
the next three to four months. In addition, we are very enthusiastic about our
newly formed joint venture with Money Concepts that will bring financial
planning services to our bank customers. We would also like to announce that
Stanley T. Jaros, a partner with Moriarty & Jaros, P.L.L., has joined the Board
of Directors to replace Richard J. Moriarty who retired from the Board this
year.

     We urge all shareholders to try to attend the Annual Meeting of the
Shareholders on October 20, 1997, 10:00 a.m., at the Cleveland Marriott East in
Beachwood, Ohio. As we continue to grow, we look forward to another successful
year of service and dedication to the community, its members, our shareholders,
and our customers.


                                        Sincerely,


                                        /s/ John R. Male

                          COMING SOON TO CHARDON, OHIO


[PHOTOGRAPH]

On or before January 1, 1998, Park View Federal Savings Bank will open a full-
service branch office in the rapidly growing city of Chardon, Ohio in Geauga
County. This 2,800 square-foot facility, just west of Chardon Square on Route 6,
was occupied formerly by The Medicine Shoppe. The building will be extensively
remodeled and will feature ample, convenient parking, drive-in banking
facilities, and a complete array of financial services for the community.

Park View Federal is a community bank that serves eight counties in northeast
Ohio. The Chardon office will be Park View Federal's second office in the
expanding Geauga County market. The bank's Bainbridge office, located at the
intersection of Washington Street and Route 306, has been serving the western
part of Geauga County since February, 1995.

The new addition to Park View Federal will bring the total of full-service
branch office locations to ten. Each of our Branch Administrators is actively
involved in the communities served. All of our branches offer convenient parking
and drive-in banking facilities. The office lobby and auto teller hours are
scheduled with the customer in mind, and many of the branches are open six days
a week. Information on the location of each of our full-service offices and
their hours of service is provided at the end of this report.

Park View Federal prides itself on providing its customers superior service,
flexible lending programs, and a full range of deposit accounts and services.
Because your business is important to us, our loan officers and account
representatives are always available to help you with any questions you may have
concerning your loan or savings account. The bank's product line includes
residential mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, commercial and multi-
family real estate loans, savings and checking accounts, and certificates of
deposit. Park View Federal specializes in single-family, construction, and
construction/permanent loan programs. Whether you are buying, building, or
refinancing a home, or saving for a college education, a vacation, or
retirement, Park View Federal has the right mortgage loan AND the right savings
account for you.

                           FINANCIAL PLANNING CENTERS


Over the last seventy-seven years, Park View Federal Savings Bank has provided
the funds for hundreds of thousands of middle-income Ohioans to help them make
one of the most important decisions of their lives - buying a home for the
family. For many years, a debt-free home, a reasonable savings account, and
Social Security with Medicare provided a satisfactory retirement for most
people. That is not true today.

Fifteen years ago, financial planning was limited to a relatively few high-
income individuals who could afford the expensive services provided by trust
departments of large financial institutions. Today, more and more
middle-income Americans are faced with the prospect of losing many thousands of
dollars due to poor investment strategies and the increasing complexity of
financial services. Opportunities for attaining a comfortable retirement are
lost by insufficient tax planning, the failure to take advantage of recently
enacted government programs, and the failure to realize the long-term income
potential of new innovative and safe investment products now available to the
smaller investor.

The Board of Directors of PVF Capital Corp. has been exploring the idea of an 
affiliation with a quality provider of these important services to our 
customers for quite some time, and the decision was made to form a joint 
venture between the Capital Corp. and Money Concepts, a worldwide network of 
financial planning centers which has been a successful provider of financial 
planning services to small businesses and middle-income families since 1979. 
The CEO of this new joint venture, to be known as PVF Financial Planning, 
Inc., will be Gregory Shefchuk, CFP, who has a proven record in this field 
since 1984 serving thousands of families in northern Ohio.

PVF Financial Planning will provide financial planning services to both
individuals and small businesses throughout the Park View Federal branch system.
The company's principal objective will be to deliver professional financial
planning on an individualized basis, at NO COST to our customers. This financial
planning approach can review a single issue such as Retirement Planning, or a
complete, comprehensive financial plan that can include Retirement Planning;
Investment Management; Pension Plan Services; Family Needs Analysis; Tax
Planning; or Discount Brokerage Services, to name but a few. The key is that
these services will be offered within the context of a professionally prepared
financial plan with annual reviews.

An important part of the company's business plan will be to offer an ongoing
schedule of educational financial planning workshops and seminars as a customer
service. These seminars will be conducted on an adult education basis and will
be free to Park View Federal customers. Our objective is simple:  PVF Financial
Planning wants to become the place where customers feel comfortable having their
financial planning questions answered in a friendly atmosphere from a name that
they can trust.

We hope to have at least two of these financial planning centers in operation by
the beginning of 1998, one at our Bainbridge office and one at our La Place
office, with a financial planning center to be in operation at all offices by
the end of 1998. We will keep all of our customers fully informed as we
progress.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

GENERAL
PVF Capital Corp. ("PVF" or the "Company") owns and operates Park View Federal
Savings Bank ("Park View Federal" or the "Bank"), its principal and wholly-owned
subsidiary, and PVF Service Corporation, a wholly-owned real estate subsidiary.
Park View Federal has nine offices located in Cleveland and surrounding
communities, including two recently opened branches in Macedonia and Bainbridge.
The Bank's principal business consists of attracting deposits from the general
public through its branch offices and investing these funds in loans secured by
first mortgages on real estate located in its market area, which consists of
Portage, Lake, Geauga, Cuyahoga, Summit, Stark, Medina and Lorain Counties in
Ohio. The Bank has concentrated its activities on serving the borrowing needs of
local homeowners and builders in its market area by originating both fixed-rate
and adjustable-rate single-family mortgage loans, as well as construction loans
and commercial real estate and multi-family residential real estate loans. In
addition, to a lesser extent, the Bank originates loans secured by second
mortgages, including home equity line of credit loans secured by
single-family residential properties and loans secured by savings deposits.
Lending activities are influenced by the demand for and supply of housing,
competition among lenders, the level of interest rates, and the availability of
funds. Deposit flows and cost of funds are influenced by prevailing market rates
of interest, primarily on competing investments, account maturities, and the
level of personal income and savings in the market area.

looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such
statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AT JUNE 30, 1997, 1996, AND 1995
PVF had total assets of $373.1 million, $331.6 million, and $315.4 million at
the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. The primary
source of the Bank's increase in total assets has been its loan portfolio. Net
loans receivable and mortgage-backed securities totaled $342.6 million, $297.8
million, and $254.7 million at June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. The
increase of $44.8 million in net loans and mortgage-backed securities at June
30, 1997 resulted primarily from increases in one-to-four family residential
loans, commercial real estate loans and home equity line of credit loans of
$19.2 million, $12.4 million, and $8.2 million respectively. The Bank's current
loans-to-one-borrower limitation was approximately $4.0 million at June 30,
1997. In addition, investment securities totaled $14.0 million, $14.1 million,
and $41.2 million at the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995
respectively. The decrease of $27.1 million in investment securities at June 30,
1996 resulted from management's decision to reinvest funds from investment
maturities and sales into the origination of real estate loans.

The investment portfolio has been and will continue to be used primarily to meet
the regulatory liquidity requirements of the Bank in its deposit taking and
lending activities. The Bank has adopted an investment policy that permits
investment only in U.S. government and agency securities or Triple-A-rated
securities. The Bank invests primarily in securities having a final maturity of
five years or less that qualify as regulatory liquidity, federal funds sold, and
deposits at the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Cincinnati. Approximately
$6.8 million, or 43.1% of the investment portfolio, has a repricing period of
one year or less, and the Bank has no plans to change the short-term nature of
its investment portfolio.

The Bank's deposits totaled $288.3 million, $271.0 million, and $272.3 million
at the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. Advances
from the FHLB of Cincinnati amounted to $47.4 million, $27.5 million, and $15.0
million at the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively.
Management's decision to borrow funds from the FHLB and aggressively compete
with market savings rates resulted in an increase of $19.9 million in FHLB
advances and an increase in savings deposits of $17.3 million.

CAPITAL
PVF's shareholders' equity totaled $26.3 million, $22.5 million, and $18.8
million at the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively.
The increases were the result of the retention of net earnings after payment of
dividends to shareholders, net of capital adjustments resulting from unrealized
gains and losses on securities available for sale. The sale of PVF Service
Corporation during fiscal 1995 and mortgage servicing rights during fiscal 1996
from the Bank to PVF, net of dividends paid by the Bank to PVF, resulted in an
increase of $1.9 million to the Bank's capital.

The Bank's primary regulator, The Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") has
implemented a statutory framework for capital requirements which establishes
five categories of capital strength, ranging from "well capitalized" to
"critically undercapitalized." An institution's category depends upon its
capital level in relation to relevant capital measures, including two risk-based
capital measures, a tangible capital measure and a core/leverage capital
measure. At June 30, 1997, the Bank was in compliance with all of the current
applicable regulatory capital measurements to meet the definition of a well-
capitalized institution, as demonstrated in the following table:

COMMON STOCK AND DIVIDENDS
On December 30, 1992, Park View Federal converted to a stock company by issuing
850,000 shares of common stock. A 10% stock dividend was issued in February
1994. PVF Capital Corp. announced the reorganization of Park View Federal into
the holding company structure of ownership effective October 31, 1994, and
concurrently converted all outstanding shares of common stock of the Bank on a
three-for-two basis into shares of common stock of  PVF Capital Corp. The
Company's common stock trades under the symbol "PVFC" on the Nasdaq Small-Cap
Market. A 10% stock dividend was issued in August 1995, a three-for-two stock
split effected in the form of a dividend was issued in August 1996, and a 10%
stock dividend was issued in September 1997. As adjusted to reflect stock
dividends and the three-for-two stock split, the Company had 2,555,562 shares of
common stock outstanding and approximately 307 holders of record of the common
stock at August 31, 1997. OTS regulations applicable to all Federal Savings
Banks such as Park View Federal limit the dividends that may be paid by the Bank
to PVF. Any dividends paid may not reduce the Bank's capital below minimum
regulatory requirements.

The payment of cash dividends is continually reviewed by management and the
Board of Directors.  An $0.11 per share cash dividend, as adjusted for stock
dividends and stock splits, was paid by the Bank in August 1994.

The following table sets forth certain information as to the range of the high

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's liquidity measures its ability to fund loans and meet withdrawals
of deposits and other cash outflows in a cost-effective manner. The Company's
primary sources of funds for operations are deposits from its primary market
area, principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed 
securities, sales of loans

                                        7
<PAGE>

and mortgage-backed securities, and proceeds from maturing investment 
securities and advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati. While loan and 
mortgage-backed securities payments and maturing investments are relatively 
stable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly 
influenced by prevailing interest rates, economic conditions and competition. 
FHLB advances may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for deposit 
outflows or on a long-term basis to support expanded lending and investment 
activities.

The Bank uses its capital resources principally to meet its ongoing commitment
to fund maturing certificates of deposit and deposit withdrawals, repay
borrowings, fund existing and continuing loan commitments, maintain its
liquidity, and meet operating expenses. At June 30, 1997, the Bank had
commitments to originate loans totaling $31.2 million and had $35.7 million of
undisbursed loans in process. Scheduled maturities of certificates of deposit
during the twelve months following June 30, 1997 totaled $172.5 million.
Management believes that a significant portion of the amounts maturing during
fiscal 1998 will be reinvested with the Bank because they are retail deposits,
however, no assurances can be made that this will occur.

Park View Federal is required by current OTS regulations to maintain specified
liquid assets of at least 5% of its net withdrawable accounts plus short-term
borrowings. Such investments serve as a source of liquid funds which the Bank
may use to meet deposit withdrawals and other short-term needs. The Bank's most
liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, which are short-term, highly-liquid
investments with original maturities equal to or less than three months that are
readily convertible to known amounts of cash. The levels of such assets are
dependent upon the Bank's operating, financing and investment activities at any
given time. Management believes that the liquidity levels maintained are more
than adequate to meet potential deposit outflows, repay maturing FHLB advances,
fund new loan demand, and cover normal operations. Park View Federal's average
daily liquidity ratio for the month of June 1997 was 7.3%, and its average
short-term liquidity ratio for such period was significantly above regulatory
requirements.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
The Company's asset and liability committee ("ALCO"), which includes senior
management representatives, monitors and considers methods of managing the rate
sensitivity and repricing characteristics of the balance sheet components
consistent with maintaining acceptable levels of changes in net portfolio value
("NPV") and net interest income. Park View Federal's asset and liability
management program is designed to minimize the impact of sudden and sustained
changes in interest rates on NPV and net interest income.

The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed on a quarterly basis by
the Board of Directors and the ALCO. Exposure to interest rate risk is measured
with the use of interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the Company's
change in NPV in the event of hypothetical changes in interest rates, while
interest rate sensitivity gap analysis is used to determine the repricing
characteristics of the Bank's assets and liabilities. If estimated changes to
NPV and net interest income are not within the limits established by the Board,
the Board may direct management to adjust its asset and liability mix to bring
interest rate risk within board-approved limits.

In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations, the Company has
developed strategies to manage its liquidity, shorten its effective maturity,
and increase the interest rate sensitivity of its asset base. Management has


                                          8
<PAGE>

sought to decrease the average maturity of its assets by emphasizing the
origination of adjustable-rate residential  mortgage loans and adjustable-rate
mortgage loans for the acquisition, development, and construction of residential
and commercial real estate, all of which are retained by the Bank for its
portfolio. In addition, all long-term, fixed-rate mortgages are underwritten
according to guidelines of the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC")
and the Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") and are either swapped
with the FHLMC and the FNMA in exchange for mortgage-backed securities secured
by such loans which are then sold in the market or sold directly for cash in the
secondary market.

Interest rate sensitivity analysis is used to measure the Company's interest
rate risk by computing estimated changes in NPV of its cash flows from assets,
liabilities and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed
changes in market interest rates. NPV represents the market value of portfolio
equity and is equal to the market value of assets minus the market value of
liabilities, with adjustments made for off-balance sheet items. This analysis
assesses the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments in the event of a
sudden and sustained 1 to 4 percent increase or decrease in market interest
rates. The Bank's Board of Directors has adopted an interest rate risk policy
which establishes maximum decreases in the NPV of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% in the
event of a sudden and sustained 1 to 4 percent increase or decrease in market
interest rates. The following table presents the Bank's projected change in NPV
for the various rate shock levels at June 30, 1997. All market risk sensitive
instruments presented in this table are held to maturity or available for sale.
The Bank has no trading securities.

The above table indicates that at June 30, 1997, in the event of a sudden and
sustained increase in prevailing market interest rates, the Bank's NPV would be
expected to decrease, and that in the event of a sudden and sustained decrease
in prevailing market interest rates, the Bank's NPV would be expected to
increase. At June 30, 1997, the Bank's estimated changes in NPV were within the
targets established by the Board of Directors.

NPV is calculated by the OTS using information provided by the Bank. The
calculation is based on the net present value of discounted cash flows utilizing
market prepayment assumptions and market rates of interest provided by Bloomberg
quotations and surveys performed during the quarter ended June 30, 1997, with
adjustments made to reflect the shift in the Treasury yield curve between the
survey date and the quarter-end date.

Computation of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are
based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest
rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay, and should not be relied upon as
indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate any
actions the Bank may undertake in response to changes in interest rates.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the
computation of NPV. Actual values may differ from those projections set forth in
the table, should market conditions vary from assumptions used in the
preparation of the table. Certain assets, such as adjustable-rate loans, which
represent the Bank's primary loan product, have features which restrict changes
in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset.
In addition, the proportion of adjustable-rate loans in the Bank's portfolio
could decrease in future periods if market interest rates remain at or decrease
below current levels due to refinance activity. Further, in the event of a
change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely
deviate significantly from those assumed in the table. Finally, the ability of
many borrowers to repay their adjustable-rate debt may decrease in the event of
an interest rate increase.

In addition, the Bank uses interest rate sensitivity gap analysis to monitor 
the relationship between the maturity and repricing of its interest-earning 
assets and interest-bearing liabilities, while maintaining an acceptable 
interest rate spread. Interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the 
difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or 
repricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing 
liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is 
considered positive when the amount of interest-rate-sensitive assets exceeds 
the amount of interest-rate-sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative 
when the amount of

                                          9
<PAGE>

interest-rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of 
interest-rate-sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest 
rates, a negative gap would adversely affect net interest income, while a 
positive gap would result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely, 
during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would result in an 
increase in net interest income, while a positive gap would negatively affect 
net interest income. Management's goal is to maintain a reasonable balance 
between exposure to interest rate fluctuations and earnings.

                                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL
PVF Capital Corp.'s net income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 was $3.6
million, or $1.33 per share, as compared to $3.8 million, or $1.39 per share for
fiscal 1996, and $3.4 million, or $1.25 per share for fiscal 1995. All per share
amounts have been adjusted for stock dividends and the three-for-two stock split
effective with the holding company reorganization on October 31, 1994.

Net income for the current year decreased by $139,000 from the prior fiscal year
and exceeded net income for fiscal 1995 by $290,000. In the first quarter of
fiscal 1997, the Bank recorded a one-time special assessment to recapitalize the
Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") that required SAIF-insured savings
institutions to pay 65.7 cents for every $100 of deposits. This assessment was
charged against earnings in fiscal 1997 and had an after-tax impact of $1.1
million.

NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income amounted to $14.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 
30, 1997, as compared to $12.1 million and $10.7 million for the fiscal years 
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively. The increase in net interest 
income of $2.3 million and $1.4 million from the fiscal year ended June 30, 
1996 to 1997 and from the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995 to 1996, 
respectively, is due to changes in interest rates and changes in volume of 
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Tables 1 and 2 
provide information as to change in the Bank's net interest income.

Table 1 sets forth certain information relating to the Bank's average 
interest-earning assets (loans and investments) and interest-bearing 
liabilities (deposits and borrowings) and reflects the average yield on 
assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods and at the dates 
indicated. Such yields and costs are derived by dividing interest income or 
interest expense by the average daily balance of assets or liabilities, 
respectively, for the periods presented. During the periods indicated, 
non-accrual loans are included in the net loan category.

This table also presents information for the periods indicated and at June 30,
1997 with respect to the difference between the weighted-average yield earned on
interest-earning assets and weighted-average rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities, or "interest rate spread," which savings institutions have
traditionally used as an indicator of profitability. Another indicator of an
institution's net interest income is its "net yield on interest-earning assets,"
which is its net interest income divided by the average balance of net
interest-earning assets. Net interest income is affected by the interest rate
spread and by the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities.

Table 2 illustrates the extent to which changes in interest rates and shifts in
the volume of interest-related assets and liabilities have affected the Bank's
interest income and expense during the years indicated. The table shows the
changes by major component, distinguishing between changes relating to volume
(changes in average volume multiplied by average old rate), changes relating to
rate (changes in average rate multiplied by average old volume), and changes
relating to rate and volume (changes in average rate multiplied by changes in
average volume).

As is evidenced by these tables, interest rate changes favorably affected the
Bank's net interest income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, while
unfavorably affecting the Bank's net interest income for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1996. Due to the long-term nature of the Bank's loan portfolio and
short-term nature of its deposit portfolio, along with decreasing interest rates

and a relatively flat yield curve during much of the fiscal year ended June 30,
1997, the Bank experienced an increase of 39 basis points in its interest rate
spread to 3.84% for fiscal 1997 from 3.45% for fiscal 1996, while during fiscal
1996 its interest rate spread decreased 22 basis points from 3.67% for fiscal
1995. These changes in average interest rate spread resulted in an increase in
net interest income for the year ended June 30, 1997 of $845,000 due to interest
rate changes and a decrease of $532,000 for the year ended June 30, 1996.

Net interest income was favorably affected by volume changes during the two
years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. Accordingly, net interest income grew by
$1.8 million and $1.9 million due to volume changes for the fiscal years ended
June 30, 1997 and 1996 respectively. Changes attributable to both rate and
volume impacted net interest income negatively during the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1997 and positively during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, with an
increase in average interest rate spread and average volume during the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1997 and the reduction in average interest rate spread being
offset by an increase in average volume during the fiscal year ended June 30,
1996.

The rate/volume analysis illustrates the effect that volatile interest rate
environments can have on a financial institution. Increasing interest rates or a
flattening yield curve will both have a negative effect on net interest income,
while decreasing interest rates or a steepening yield curve will both have a
positive effect on net interest income.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES Due to the increased risks associated with 
commercial real estate, construction, and land loans, the Bank carefully 
monitors its loan portfolio and establishes levels of unallocated and 
specific reserves for loan losses. Provisions for loan losses are charged to 
earnings to bring the total allowances for loan losses to a level considered 
adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses, based on prior 
loss experience, volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, industry 
standards, and past due loans in the Bank's loan portfolio. The Bank's 
policies require the review of assets on a regular basis, and the Bank 
appropriately classifies loans as well as other assets if warranted. The Bank 
establishes specific provisions for loan losses when a loan is deemed to be 
uncollectible in an amount equal to the net book value of the loan or to any 
portion of the loan deemed uncollectible. A loan that is classified as either 
substandard or doubtful is assigned an allowance based upon the specific 
circumstances on a loan-by-loan basis after consideration of the underlying 
collateral and other pertinent economic and market conditions. In addition, 
the Bank maintains unallocated allowances based upon the establishment of a 
risk category for each type of loan in the Bank's portfolio. Management 
believes it uses the best information available to make a determination with 
respect to the allowance for loan losses, recognizing that future adjustments 
may be necessary depending upon a change in economic conditions. The 
allowance for loan losses increased from $2.4 million at June 30, 1995 to 
$2.6 million at June 30, 1996 and to $2.7 million at June 30, 1997. At June 
30, 1997, the

allowance for loan losses represented 58.0% of total non-performing loans,
compared to 104.8% and 51.8% of total non-performing loans at June 30, 1996 and
1995 respectively. Non-performing loans consist of all non-accrual loans and all
loans 90 days or more past due.


For the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996 and 1995, the Bank recorded
provisions for loan losses of $187,000, $417,000, and $416,000 respectively. The
Bank increased its unallocated reserves for loan losses based on management's
evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio, prevailing economic conditions,
changes in the volume of the loan portfolio, and other factors
deemed relevant. Actual net charge-offs totaled $77,000,  $254,000, and $89,000
for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. At June
30, 1997, the allowance for loan losses represented 0.8% of net loans and
mortgage-backed securities.

NON-INTEREST INCOME
Non-interest income amounted to $1.3 million, $1.7 million, and $1.5 million for
the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. The
fluctuations in non-interest income are due primarily to fluctuations in income
derived from mortgage banking activities and fee income on deposit accounts.
Income attributable to mortgage banking activities consists of loan servicing
income, gains and losses on the sale of loans and mortgage-backed securities,
and market valuation provisions and recoveries. Income from mortgage banking
activities amounted to $663,000, $925,000, and $906,000 for the fiscal years
ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. The reduction in income from
mortgage banking activities of $262,000 from the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996
to 1997 is primarily due to a decrease in net profit realized on the sale of
loans and mortgage-backed securities. Other non-interest income amounted to
$673,000, $822,000, and $607,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996,
and 1995 respectively. Changes in other non-interest income are the result of
service and other miscellaneous fee income, income realized on the sale of
assets and investments, and the disposal of real estate owned properties.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Non-interest expense amounted to $10.0 million, $8.0 million, and $7.2 million
for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. The
principal component of non-interest expense is compensation and related benefits
which amounted to $4.4 million, $4.1 million, and $3.7 million for the fiscal
years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. The increase in
compensation for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 is due primarily
to growth in the staff, the opening of two new branches in fiscal 1995, employee
401K benefits, a compensation incentive plan for both management and loan
originators, and inflationary salary and wage adjustments to employees. Office
occupancy totaled $1.6 million, $1.4 million, and $1.2 million for the fiscal
years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. The increased occupancy
expense is attributable to maintenance and repairs to office buildings and costs
attributable to opening and operating two additional branch offices. Other
non-interest expense totaled $4.0 million, $2.4 million, and $2.2 million for
the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively. The increase
in other non-interest expense of $1.6 million from the fiscal year ended June
30, 1996 to 1997 is attributable to the previously mentioned SAIF assessment.
Changes in other non-interest expense are the result of advertising,
professional and legal services, regulatory and insurance expenses, and
franchise tax expense.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Bank's federal income tax expense was $1.9 million, $1.6 million, and $1.2
million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 respectively.
Due to the availability of statutory bad debt deductions for the fiscal years
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, and other miscellaneous deductions, the Bank's
effective federal income tax rate was below the expected tax rate of 35% with an
effective rate of 34%, 30%, and 27% for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997,
1996, and 1995 respectively.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
The consolidated financial statements and related data presented herein have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires 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. Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and
liabilities of the Bank are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have
a more significant impact on the Bank's performance than the effects of general
levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same
direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services since
such prices are affected by inflation to a larger extent than interest rates.
For further information regarding the effect of interest rate fluctuations on
the Bank, see "Asset/Liability Management."

EFFECT OF NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, Earnings per
Share, which supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") No. 15, Earnings per
Share, and replaces the presentation of primary and fully diluted earnings per
share with basic and diluted earnings per share. SFAS No. 128 was issued to
simplify the computation of earnings per share and make the U.S. standard more
compatible with the earnings per share standards of other countries and that of
the International Accounting Standards Committee ("IASC"). SFAS No. 128 is
effective for financial statements for both interim and annual periods ending
after December 15, 1997. Earlier application is not permitted, however, pro
forma earnings per share is permitted for periods prior to required adoption.
The following table discloses pro forma earnings per share pursuant to SFAS No.
128 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996.

In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information. SFAS No. 131 requires public business
enterprises to report certain information about operating segments. Also
required is certain information about products and services, geographic areas in
which an enterprise operates, and any major customers. SFAS No. 131 is effective
after December 15, 1997. Management does not expect the implementation of SFAS
No. 131 to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
position or results of operations.

    are insured under the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) of the
    Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and are backed by the full
    faith and credit of the United States government.  The following is a
    description of the significant policies which the Company follows in
    preparing and presenting its consolidated financial statements.

    PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PVF Capital
    Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Park View Federal Savings Bank and
    PVF Service Corporation.  All significant intercompany transactions and
    balances are eliminated in consolidation.

    USE OF ESTIMATES

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
    accepted accounting principles 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
    financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
    during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
    estimates.

    ALLOWANCE FOR LOSSES

    Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114, ACCOUNTING BY
    CREDITORS FOR IMPAIRMENT OF A LOAN, and No. 118, ACCOUNTING BY CREDITORS
    FOR IMPAIRMENT OF A LOAN - INCOME RECOGNITION AND DISCLOSURES, a loan is
    considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is
    probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of
    principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the loan
    agreement.  Since the Bank's loans are primarily collateral dependent,
    measurement of impairment is based on the fair value of the collateral. 
    The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and
    decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries) based on the Bank's evaluation
    of impairment of its loans.

    The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is periodically evaluated by
    the Bank based upon the overall portfolio composition and general market
    conditions.  While management uses the best information available to make
    these evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if
    economic conditions change substantially from the assumptions used in
    making the evaluations.  Future adjustments to the allowance may also be
    required by regulatory examiners based on their judgments about information
    available to them at the time of their examination.

    Uncollectible interest on loans that are contractually 90 days or more past
    due is charged off, or an allowance is established.  The allowance is
    established by a charge to interest income equal to all interest previously
    accrued, and income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash
    payments are received until the loan is determined to be performing in
    accordance with the applicable loan terms in which case the loan is
    returned to accrual status.

    MORTGAGE BANKING ACTIVITIES

    Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market
    value, determined on a net aggregate basis.

    The Company retains servicing on loans that are sold.  Effective January 1,
    1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
    No. 122, ACCOUNTING FOR MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS.  Effective January 1,
    1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
    125, ACCOUNTING FOR TRANSFERS AND SERVICING OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND
    EXTINGUISHMENTS OF LIABILITIES, which supersedes SFAS  No. 122 and provides
    accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial
    assets and extinguishments of liabilities.

    As a result of the adoption, the Company recognizes an asset for mortgage
    servicing rights based on allocation of total loan cost using relative fair
    values, or a liability for mortgage servicing rights based on fair value,
    if the benefits of servicing are not expected to adequately compensate the
    servicer.  The cost of mortgage servicing rights is amortized in proportion
    to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues.  Impairment
    of mortgage servicing rights is assessed based on the fair value of those
    rights.  Fair values are estimated using discounted cash flows based on
    current market interest rates and prepayment assumptions.  

    For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights are stratified based on
    predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans such as interest
    rates and scheduled maturity.  The amount of impairment recognized is the
    amount by which the capitalized mortgage servicing rights exceed their fair
    value.  The Bank monitors prepayments, and in the event that actual
    prepayments exceed original estimates, amortization is adjusted
    accordingly.  

    INVESTMENT AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN
    INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES, requires that debt and equity
    securities be classified into one of three categories:  held to maturity,
    available for sale, or held for trading.  Securities held to maturity are
    limited to debt securities that the holder has the positive intent and the
    ability to hold to maturity; these securities are reported at amortized
    cost.  Securities held for trading are limited to debt and equity
    securities that are held principally to be sold in the near term; these
    securities are reported at fair value, and unrealized gains and losses are
    reflected in earnings.  Securities held as available for sale consist of
    all other securities; these securities are reported at fair value, and
    unrealized gains and losses are not reflected in earnings but are reflected
    as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of tax.  Under
    Statement 115, investment and mortgage-backed securities that could be sold
    in the future because of changes in interest rates or other factors may not
    be classified as held to maturity.

    Gains or losses on the sales of all securities are recognized at the date
    of sale (trade date).

    OFFICE PROPERTIES AND EQUIPMENT

    Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method
    at rates expected to amortize the cost of the assets over their estimated
    useful lives or, with respect to leasehold improvements, the term of the
    lease, if shorter.

    FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

    The Company files a consolidated tax return with its wholly owned
    subsidiaries and provides deferred federal income taxes in recognition of
    timing differences between financial statement and income tax reporting.

                                                                (Continued)

                      Notes to Consolidated Financial Statments


    Under the asset and liability method of Statement 109, deferred tax assets
    and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable
    to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
    assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets
    and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
    taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
    expected to be recovered or settled, and the effect on deferred tax assets
    and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
    period that includes the enactment date.

    LOAN ORIGINATION AND COMMITMENT FEES

    The Bank defers loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct
    loan origination costs and amortizes the net amount over the lives of the
    related loans as a yield adjustment if the loans are held for investment,
    or recognizes the net fees as mortgage banking income when the loans are
    sold.

    REAL ESTATE IN DEVELOPMENT

    Real estate in development is carried at the lower of cost, including
    capitalized holding costs, or fair value less estimated selling costs.

    STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

    For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
    considers cash and amounts due from depository institutions, interest
    bearing deposits, and federal funds sold with original maturities of less
    than three months to be cash equivalents.

    EARNINGS PER SHARE

    The per share data for 1997, 1996, and 1995 are calculated on a primary
    basis because of the dilutive effect of unexercised options and are
    adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock issuance of PVF Capital Corp.
    on October 31, 1994; the 10 percent stock dividends declared February 1994
    and July 1995; the three-for-two stock issuance declared July 1996; and the
    10 percent stock dividend declared July 1997.  The weighted average number
    of shares of common stock and common stocks equivalents outstanding during
    the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 were 2,740,442, 2,717,735,
    and 2,691,552, respectively.  Fully diluted earnings per share is not
    materially different than primary earnings per share.

    RECLASSIFICATION

    Certain reclassifications have been made to 1996 and 1995 amounts to
    conform to the 1997 presentation.

(2) INVESTMENT SECURITIES

    Investment securities, held to maturity, at June 30, 1997 and 1996, are

    Realized gains on sales of investment securities were $-0-, $100,658, and

    realized losses for the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 were
    $-0-, $25,937, and $-0-, respectively.

    On November 16, 1995, the Company adopted the implementation guidance in
    the Special Report, A GUIDE TO IMPLEMENTATION OF STATEMENT 115 ON
    ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES, issued by
    the Financial Accounting Standards Board in November 1995, and reassessed
    the appropriateness of the classification of all securities held at that
    date.  Investment securities held to maturity and mortgage-backed
    securities with amortized costs of $9,932,467 were transferred to the
    available-for-sale classification, and a valuation account was established
    for the unrealized gain, totaling $90,105, to increase the recorded balance
    of such securities to their fair value on that date.  Subsequent to the
    transfer to the available-for-sale category, the investment securities and
    mortgage-backed securities were sold, and net realized gains of $74,721
    were recognized.

    It is the Bank's policy to classify as nonaccruing any loan where less than
    the full required interest payment is made and to not record into income
    partial interest payments.  During the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
    gross interest income of $310,162 and $331,395, respectively, would have
    been recorded on loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis if the loans had
    been current throughout the period.

    At June 30, 1997 and 1996, the recorded investment in loans which have been
    identified as being impaired and have been evaluated in accordance with
    Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114 and No. 118 totaled
    $4,137,000 and $2,352,000, respectively.  Included in the impaired amount
    at June 30, 1997 and 1996, is $159,863 and $480,840, respectively, related
    to loans with a corresponding valuation allowance of $68,763 and $393,730,
    respectively.  The Company recognized no interest on impaired loans in
    1997, 1996, and 1995 (during the portion of the respective years that they
    were impaired).

    The Bank maintains two lines of credit, totaling $70,000,000, with the
    Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB).  The $40,000,000 repurchase
    line matures in September 1997.  The Bank has chosen to take daily advances
    from this line, with the interest rate set daily.  The $30,000,000 cash
    management line matures in December 1997.  Serving as collateral for such
    advances, the Bank has pledged mortgage loans with unpaid principal
    balances aggregating approximately $71,108,136 and $41,222,000 at June 30,
    1997 and 1996, respectively.  In addition, stock in the FHLB is pledged for
    such advances.

    The Bank has the capacity to borrow up to 25 percent of its assets, upon
    approval of the FHLB.  At June 30, 1997 and 1996, the Bank had the capacity
    to borrow an additional $46,000,000 and $55,000,000, respectively, in FHLB
    advances.

    On June 30, 1995, PVF Capital Corp. secured a mortgage note from a
    federally insured institution at a fixed interest rate.  Interest payments
    are due on the first day of each month, and principal payments of $10,000
    per month are due beginning in August 1998 through the date of maturity,
    July 2000, at which time the remaining unpaid principal balance is due and
    payable in full.

    On August 16, 1995, PVF Service Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of
    the Company, secured a promissory note from another federally insured
    institution at a variable interest rate that adjusts to prime plus 1
    percent without notice to the Company on the effective date of each change
    in the lender's prime rate.   Interest payments are due on the first day of
    each month, and principal payments of $50,000 per quarter are due
    commencing January 1996 through the date of maturity, September 2000, at
    which time any remaining unpaid principal balance is due and payable in
    full.  Additional principal payments may be required in accordance with the
    terms of the note.

    Of the deferred tax liability at June 30, 1997 and June 30, 1996, a
    deferred tax liability of $-0- and $79,471, respectively, is included in
    unrealized losses on securities available for sale.

    Under Statement 109, a valuation allowance is established to reduce the
    deferred tax asset if it is more likely than not that the related tax
    benefits will not be realized.  In management's opinion, it is more likely
    than not that the tax benefits will be realized; consequently, no valuation
    allowance has been established as of June 30, 1997 or 1996.

    Retained earnings at June 30, 1997 includes approximately $4,516,000 for
    which no provision for federal income tax has been made.  This amount
    represents allocations of income during years prior to 1988 to bad debt
    deductions for tax purposes only.  These qualifying and nonqualifying base
    year reserves and supplemental reserves will be recaptured into income in
    the event of certain distributions and redemptions.  Such recapture would
    create income for tax purposes only, which would be subject to the then
    current corporate income tax rate.  Recapture would not occur upon the
    reorganization, 


                                                                (Continued)

    merger, or acquisition of the Bank, nor if the Bank is merged or liquidated
    tax-free into a bank or undergoes a charter change.  If the Bank fails to
    qualify as a bank or merges into a nonbank entity, these reserves will be
    recaptured into income.

    The favorable reserve method previously afforded to thrifts was repealed
    for tax years beginning after December 31, 1995.  Large thrifts must switch
    to the specific charge-off method of section 166, while small thrifts, such
    as the Bank, must switch to the reserve method of section 585 (the method
    used by small commercial banks).  In general, a thrift is required to
    recapture the amount of its qualifying and nonqualifying reserves in excess
    of its qualifying and nonqualifying base year reserves.  There is an
    exception to the general recapture provision for small thrifts.  A small
    thrift is required to recapture the portion of its reserves that exceeds
    the greater of (1) the experience method reserve computed as if the thrift
    had always been a small bank, or (2) the lesser of the qualifying and
    nonqualifying base year reserves or the contracted base year reserves.  The
    Bank has no such excess reserves to recapture.  The opening tax bad debt
    reserve for a small thrift for the first taxable year beginning after
    December 31, 1995 is the greater of the two amounts described in (1) and
    (2) above.  A small thrift that switches to the section 585 experience
    method must make an annual addition to its reserve for bad debts.  Under
    section 593, a thrift was not required to make a minimum addition to its
    reserve for any taxable year.

(11) LEASES

    Future minimum payments under noncancelable operating leases with initial
    or remaining terms of one year or more consisted of the following at
    June 30, 1997:

                                     -------   -------    -------

(12) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into commitments with
    off-balance sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. 
    Commitments to extend credit involve elements of credit risk and interest
    rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements
    of financial condition.  The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of
    nonperformance by the other party to the commitment is represented by the
    contractual amount of the commitment.  The Bank uses the same credit
    policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. 
    Interest rate risk on commitments to extend credit results from the
    possibility that interest rates may have moved unfavorably from the
    position of the Bank since the time the commitment was made.

    Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long
    as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. 
    Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates of 60 to 


                                                                (Continued)

    120 days or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. 
    Since some of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the
    total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash
    requirements.

    The Bank evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case
    basis.  The amount of collateral obtained by the Bank upon extension of
    credit is based on management's credit evaluation of the applicant. 
    Collateral held is generally residential and commercial real estate.

    The Bank's lending is concentrated in Northeastern Ohio, and as a result,
    the economic conditions and market for real estate in Northeastern Ohio
    could have a significant impact on the Bank.

    At June 30, 1997 and 1996, the Bank had the following commitments: 

                                                         1997         1996   
                                                         ----         ----   

              Commitments to sell mortgage loans
              in the secondary market                $   773,000    1,169,000

              Commitments to fund variable 
              mortgage loans                          29,098,000   21,945,000

    There are pending against the Company various lawsuits and claims which
    arise in the normal course of business.  In the opinion of management, any
    liabilities that may result from pending lawsuits and claims will not
    materially affect the financial position of the Company.

(13) REGULATORY CAPITAL

    Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) regulations require savings institutions
    to maintain certain minimum levels of regulatory capital.  An institution
    that fails to comply with its regulatory capital requirements must obtain
    OTS approval of a capital plan and can be subject to a capital directive
    and certain restrictions on its operations.  At June 30, 1997, the minimum
    regulatory capital regulations require institutions to have tangible
    capital equal to 1.5 percent of adjusted total assets, a 3 percent leverage
    capital ratio, and an 8 percent risk-based capital ratio.  At June 30,
    1997, the Bank exceeded all of the aforementioned regulatory capital
    requirements.

    The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA) was
    signed into law on December 19, 1991.  Regulations implementing the prompt
    corrective action provisions of FDICIA became effective on December 19,
    1992.  The prompt corrective action regulations define specific capital
    categories based on an institution's capital ratios.  The capital
    categories, in declining order, are "well capitalized," "adequately
    capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized," and
    "critically undercapitalized."  To be considered "well capitalized," an
    institution must generally have a leverage ratio of at least 5 percent, a
    Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 6 percent, and a total
    risk-based capital ratio of at least 10 percent.  As of June 30, 1997, the
    most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Bank as "well
    capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

(14) STOCK OPTIONS

    The Bank offered stock options to the directors and officers of the bank in
    1994 and 1996.  Under the 1994 plan, 83,500 options were originally granted
    (prior to adjustment for stock splits and dividends), which are exercisable
    for a ten-year period and can be exercised at any time.  In 1996, 20,200
    options were granted which are exercisable for a ten-year period, with 20
    percent of the options vesting each year.  Options were granted at fair
    market value and, accordingly, no charges were reflected in the salaries
    and employee benefits expense due to the granting of stock options.  The
    excess of the option price over the par value of the shares purchased
    through the exercise of stock options is credited to additional capital. 
    There were no options exercised during the year.  An analysis of the stock
    option plans as of June 30, 1997 follows:

              Plan year                     1996            1994
              ---------                     ----            ----
              Options outstanding:
                   Total                    22,220         242,576
                   Vested                    4,444         242,576
              Exercise price              $  13.64            3.34

    Pursuant to the terms of the plans, share information and exercise prices
    have been adjusted to reflect the impact of stock splits and dividends
    subsequent to the granting dates of the options.

    In 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED
    COMPENSATION, which defines a fair value method of accounting for stock
    options and similar equity instruments.  Pursuant to SFAS No. 123,
    companies who elect not to adopt the fair value method of accounting for
    employee stock-based transactions are required to disclose in the footnotes
    to the financial statements pro forma net earnings and pro forma earnings
    per share as if the company had adopted the new method of accounting.  The
    bank has elected not to adopt SFAS No. 123 as this new method of accounting
    did not have a material effect on either earnings or earnings per share. 
    Therefore, pro forma disclosures are not presented.

(15) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

    The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial
    instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of Statement of
    Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF
    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS.  The estimated fair value amounts have been
    determined by the Bank using available market information and appropriate
    valuation methodologies.  However, considerable judgment is necessarily
    required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. 
    Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative
    of the amounts the Bank could realize in a current market exchange.  The
    use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may
    have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.


                                                                (Continued)

    CASH AND AMOUNTS DUE FROM DEPOSITORY INSTITUTIONS, INTEREST BEARING 
    DEPOSITS, AND FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD.  The carrying amount is a reasonable 
    estimate of fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

    INVESTMENT AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES.  Estimated fair value for 
    investment and mortgage-backed securities is based on quoted market 
    prices.

    LOANS RECEIVABLE HELD FOR INVESTMENT AND HELD FOR SALE.  For loans 
    receivable held for sale, fair value is estimated using the quoted market 
    prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences 
    in loan characteristics.  For performing loans receivable held for 
    investment, fair value is estimated by discounting contractual cash flows 
    adjusted for prepayment estimates using discount rates based on secondary 
    market sources adjusted to reflect differences in servicing and credit 
    costs.  For other loans, cash flows and maturities are estimated based on 
    contractual interest rates and historical experience and are discounted 
    using secondary market rates adjusted for differences in servicing and 
    credit costs.

    Fair value for significant nonperforming loans is based on recent 
    external appraisals.  If appraisals are not available, estimated cash 
    flows are discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk associated 
    with the estimated cash flows.  Assumptions regarding credit risk, cash 
    flows, and discount rates are judgmentally determined using available 
    market information and specific borrower information.

    maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using discounted cash flows 
    and rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

    ADVANCES FROM THE FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK OF CINCINNATI.  The fair value 
    of the Bank's FHLB debt is estimated based on the current rates offered 
    to the Bank for debt of the same remaining maturities.

    NOTES PAYABLE.  The carrying value of the Company's fixed rate note 
    payable is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the current 
    incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements.  
    For the variable rate note payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable 
    estimate of fair value.

    OFF-BALANCE SHEET INSTRUMENTS.  The fair value of commitments is 
    estimated using the fees currently charged to enter similar agreements, 
    taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the 
    counterparties' credit standing.  For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair 
    value also considers the difference between current levels of interest 
    rates and the committed rates.  The fair value of undisbursed lines of 
    credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on 
    estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with 
    the counterparties at the reporting date.  The carrying amount and fair 
    value of off-balance sheet instruments is not significant as of June 30, 
    1997 and 1996.

                      Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(18) 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN

    Employees who have reached age 18 and have completed one year of 
    eligibility service are eligible to participate in the Company's 401(k) 
    Savings Plan.  The plan allows eligible employees to contribute up to 7 
    percent of their compensation, with the Company matching up to 50 percent 
    of the first 4 percent contributed by the employee, as determined by the 
    Company for the contribution period.  The plan also permits the Company 
    to make a profit sharing contribution at its discretion up to 4 percent 
    of the employees compensation. Participants vest in the Company's 
    contributions as follows:

                    Years of Service         Percent Vested
                    ----------------         --------------
                    Less than 2                   0%
                    2 but less than 3             20
                    3 but less than 4             40
                    4 but less than 5             60
                    5 but less than 6             80
                    6 or more                    100


    The total of the Company's matching and profit sharing contribution cost
    related to the plan for the years ended June 30, 1997, 1996, and 1995 was
    $76,300; $68,100; and $102,100, respectively.
