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

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements for Timberland Bancorp, Inc. ("Company") were prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America for interim financial information and with instructions for Form
10-Q and therefore, do not include all disclosures necessary for a complete
presentation of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. However, all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial
statements have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring
nature. The results of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire
fiscal year.

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

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

9





(2) EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income applicable to
common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period, without considering any dilutive items. Diluted earnings
per share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stock by the
weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents for
items that are dilutive, net of shares assumed to be repurchased using the
treasury stock method at the average share price for the Company's common
stock during the period. Common stock equivalents arise from assumed
conversion of outstanding stock options and awarded but not released
Management Recognition and Development Plan ("MRDP") shares. In accordance
with Statement of Position ("SOP") 93-6, Employers' Accounting for Employee
Stock Ownership Plans (ESOP), issued by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants, shares owned by the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan
that have not been allocated are not considered to be outstanding for the
purpose of computing earnings per share. At June 30, 2002, there were 396,750
ESOP shares that had not been allocated.

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


The following analysis discusses the material changes in the financial
condition and results of operations of the Company at and for the three and
nine months ended June 30, 2002. This report contains certain
"forward-looking statements." The Company desires to take advantage of the
"safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 and is including this statement for the express purpose of availing
itself of the protection of such safe harbor with forward looking statements.
These forward looking statements may describe future plans or strategies and
include the Company's expectations of future financial results. The words
"believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," and similar
expressions identify forward-looking statements. The Company's ability to
predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies is inherently
uncertain. Factors which could affect actual results include competition in
the financial services market for both deposits and loans, interest rate
trends, the economic climate in the Company's market areas and the country as
a whole, loan delinquency rates, and changes in federal and state regulation.
These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking
statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.



Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001

Total Assets: Total assets increased by $28.7 million to $415.1 million at
June 30, 2002 from $386.3 million at September 30, 2001 primarily due to
increased deposit levels.

Cash and Due from Financial Institutions: Cash and due from financial
institutions decreased to $7.5 million at June 30, 2002 from $10.0 million at
September 30, 2001.

Interest Bearing Deposits in Banks: Interest bearing deposits in banks
increased to $24.5 million at June 30, 2002 from $3.4 million at September 30,
2001, primarily due to proceeds received from increased customer deposits and
the sale of fixed rate one-to-four family mortgage loans.

Investments and Mortgage-backed Securities: Investments and mortgage-backed
securities increased to $41.1 million at June 30, 2002 from $29.4 million at
September 30, 2001. This increase is primarily due to investing proceeds from
the conversion of $12.2 million in fixed rate loans held for sale to
mortgage-backed securities.

Loans Receivable, and Loans Held-for-sale, net of allowance for loan losses:
Net loans receivable, including loans held-for-sale, decreased $2.6 million to
$321.2 million at June 30, 2002 from $323.8 at September 30, 2001, primarily
due to a $20.6 million decrease in the Bank's net construction loan portfolio
and a $15.5 million decrease in the Bank's one-to-four family mortgage loan
portfolio. The construction loan decrease resulted primarily from the pay down
of loans secured by condominium projects pursuant to unit sales and the
conversion of construction loans to permanent status. The decrease of
one-to-four family mortgages held in the portfolio was due to the conversion
of $12.2 million of loans held for sale to mortgage-backed securities and the
sale of $55.4 million in fixed rate one-to-four family mortgage loans during
the nine-month period. The decreases in construction and one-to-four family
mortgages were partially offset by a $30.3 million increase in commercial real
estate loans, which was primarily the result of the activities of the Bank's
Business Banking Division.

11





Real Estate Owned ("REO"): Real estate owned decreased $88,000 to $918,000
for June 30, 2002 from $1.01 million at September 30, 2001.

Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment increased by $709,000 to $11.4
million at June 30, 2002 from $10.7 million at September 30, 2001. This
increase is primarily due to the purchase of a building in Olympia (Thurston
County) for a future branch and the acquisition of a building in Hoquiam
(Grays Harbor County) for future office space.

Deposits: Deposits increased by 14.1% to $276.6 million at June 30, 2002
from $242.4 million at September 30, 2001, primarily due to a $20.5 million
increase in the Bank's money market accounts, a $7.0 million increase in N.O.W
checking accounts, an $8.3 million increase in passbook savings accounts and a
$3.6 million increase in non-interest bearing accounts. Management attributes
the deposit growth to its targeted marketing program and to consumer
uncertainty regarding the volatile stock market.

Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Advances: FHLB advances decreased by 10.4% to
$61.8 million at June 30, 2002 from $69.0 million at September 30, 2001, as
funds from increased deposits and loan sales were used to pay down the level
of advances.

Shareholders' Equity: Total shareholders' equity increased by $2.7 million to
$74.5 million at June 30, 2002 from $71.8 million at September 30, 2001. The
components of shareholders' equity were affected by net income of $5.1
million, the repurchase of 156,872 shares of the Company's stock for $2.4
million, the payment of $1.5 million in dividends to shareholders, and a
$184,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive income. Also affecting
shareholders' equity was a $483,000 decrease in the equity component related
to unearned shares issued to the Management Recognition and Development Plan,
a $397,000 decrease in the equity component related to the unearned shares
issued to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan, and a $346,000 increase to
additional paid in capital from the exercise of stock options.

On May 10, 2002 the Company announced a plan to repurchase 193,659 shares of
the Company's stock. This marked the Company's tenth 5% stock repurchase
plan. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had not yet purchased any shares under
the current plan. The Company has now repurchased 2,404,904 (36.4%) of the
6,612,500 shares that were issued when the Company went public in January
1998.

Non-performing Assets: Total non-performing assets increased to $5.4 million
for June 30, 2002 from $5.1 million at September 30, 2001. The Company's
non-performing asset ratio to total asset ratio ("NPA") decreased to 1.31% at
June 30, 2002 from 1.32% at September 30, 2001. Nonaccrual loans increased
$410,000 to $4.5 million at June 30, 2002 from $4.1 million at September 30,
2001. The increase was primarily a result of a $1.5 million increase in
one-to-four family nonaccrual loans and a $411,000 increase in multi-family
nonaccrual mortgages. These increases were partially offset by a $1.5 million
decrease in commercial real estate loans on non-accrual status.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended June 30,
2002 and 2001

Net Income: Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 was $1.80 million,
or $0.45 per diluted share ($0.46 per basic share) compared to $1.41 million,
or $0.34 per diluted share ($0.34 per basic share) for the quarter ended June
30, 2001. Primary factors affecting the improved performance in 2002 were
increased net interest income, a decreased provision for loan losses,
increased fee income, and increased gains on the sale of mortgage loans.
These increases were partially offset by higher non-interest expenses. Net
income was also increased to a lesser extent during the current quarter by
reducing income tax expense by $65,000 as a result of overaccruals in earlier
quarters.

Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 was $5.13 million or $1.27
per diluted share ($1.31 per basic share) compared to net income of $4.44
million or $1.04 per diluted share ($1.05 per basic share) for the nine months
ended June 30, 2001.

Net Interest Income: Net interest income increased 3.2% to $4.8 million for
the quarter ended June 30, 2002 from $4.6 million for the quarter ended June
30, 2001, primarily due to decreased funding costs. Total interest expense
decreased $717,000 to $2.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 from
$3.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. The average cost of funds
for each of the Bank's deposit account types for the current quarter was lower
than a year ago. The overall cost of funds decreased to 3.42% for the quarter
ended June 30, 2002 from 4.78% for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. Total
interest income decreased to $7.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002
from $8.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, primarily due to a
decrease in average yields of earning assets. The yield on earning assets was
7.65% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 compared to 8.99% for the quarter
ended June 30, 2001. The impact of lower average yields was, however,
partially offset by increased levels of average earning assets. As a result
of these changes, net interest margin decreased to 4.93% the quarter ended
June 30, 2002 from 5.21% for the quarter ended June 30, 2001.

Net interest income increased 11.3 % to $14.6 million for the nine months
ended June 30, 2002 from $13.1 million for the nine months ended June 30,
2001, primarily due to decreased funding costs. Interest expense decreased by
$2.4 million to $8.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 from
$10.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2001. The Company's overall
cost of funds decreased to 3.71% for the nine months

15





ended June 30, 2002 from 5.11% for the nine months ended June 30, 2001 due to
lower average cost of funds for each type of the Bank's deposit accounts and
lower average borrowings from the FHLB. Total interest income decreased
$913,000 to $22.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 from $23.8
million for the nine months ended June 30, 2001 primarily due to lower average
yields on interest earning assets, from 8.97% in 2001 to 8.13% in 2002. Net
interest margin was 5.18% for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 compared to
a net interest margin of 4.94% for the nine months ended June 30, 2001, due to
liabilities repricing more quickly than interest earning assets in the
reducing rate environment. The Company anticipates further margin compression
in the upcoming quarter as portions of the Bank's loan portfolio are scheduled
to reprice downward at a greater rate than the Bank's funding sources will be
able to reprice.

Provision for Loan Losses: The provision for loan losses decreased to
$200,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $800,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2001. The provision for loan losses for the nine
months ended June 30, 2002 was $792,000 compared to $1.15 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 2001. The provision for loan losses was larger in 2001
primarily due to the deterioration and charge-off of a large commercial
business loan during the June 30, 2001 quarter. Management conducts regular
analyses of the Bank's loan portfolio, which it uses to review the adequacy of
its allowance for loan losses. The analyses present data on loans by type of
loan, internal loan classifications, historical loss percentages and economic
factors considered by management in reviewing the allowance for loan losses.
Based on its internal analysis at June 30, 2002 and trends in the loan
portfolio, managment deemed the allowance for loan losses of $3.5 million at
June 30, 2002 (1.08% of loans receivable and 77.0% of non-performing loans)
adequate to provide for estimated losses based on an evaluation of known and
inherent risks in the loan portfolio at that date. The allowance for loan
losses was $3.1 million (1.00% of loans receivable and 62.7% of non-performing
loans) at June 30, 2001. Net charge-offs for the current quarter were $186,000
compared to $587,000 in the same quarter of 2001. For the nine months ended
June 30, 2002 and 2001, net charge-offs were $378,000 and $744,000,
respectively.

Noninterest Income: Total non-interest income increased to $1.19 million for
the quarter ended June 30, 2002 from $857,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
2001, primarily due to a $209,000 increase in service charges on deposits and
a $66,000 increase in the gain on sale of loans. The increased deposit-related
service charge income is primarily a result of the Bank's checking account
acquisition program. The increased loan sale gains are a result of the
Company selling $15.5 million in fixed-rate one-to-four family loans during
the quarter.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2002 non-interest income increased $1.1
million to $3.4 million from $2.3 million for the nine months ended June 30,
2001. This increase is primarily due to a $600,000 increase in service
charges on deposits, and a $415,000 increase in gain on sale of loans.

Noninterest Expense: Total non-interest expense increased to $3.1 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2002 from $2.6 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2001. This increase is primarily due to a $304,000 increase in
salary and employee benefit expense and an $81,000 increase in ATM operating
expenses. The increase in salary and benefit expense is primarily a result of
adding employees to staff the Bank's newest branch (Tacoma), hiring additional
commercial loan staff to manage the Bank's business banking activities, and
expenses associated with the Management Recognition and Development Plan.
Also affecting the quarter-to-quarter comparison, was the recovery of a prior
NSF kiting related expense during the quarter ended June 30, 2001. This
recovery reduced the non-interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2001
by $150,000.

Total non-interest expense increased $1.8 million for the nine months ended
June 30, 2002 compared to 2001, essentially related to the same factors that
affected non-interest expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 compared to
the quarter ended June 30, 2001.

16





Provision for Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes increased to $2.7
million for the nine months ended June 30, 2002 from $2.2 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 2001 primarily as a result of higher income before
income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate was 34.1% in 2002 compared to
33.3% in 2001.


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

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

The analysis of liquidity should also include a review of the changes that
appear in the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended
June 30, 2002. The statement of cash flows includes operating, investing and
financing categories. Operating activities include net income, which is
adjusted for non-cash items, and increases or decreases in cash due to certain
changes in assets and liabilities. Investing activities consist primarily of
both proceeds from maturities and sales of securities and purchases of
securities, and the net growth in loans. Financing activities present the
cash flows associated with the Company's deposit accounts and other
borrowings.

The Bank must maintain an adequate level of liquidity to ensure the
availability of sufficient funds to fund loan originations and deposit
withdrawals, to satisfy other financial commitments and to take advantage of
investment opportunities. The Bank generally maintains sufficient cash and
short-term investments to meet short-term liquidity needs. At June 30, 2002,
the Bank's regulatory liquidity ratio (net cash, and short-term and marketable
assets, as a percentage of net deposits and short-term liabilities) was 27.4%.
The Bank also maintained an uncommitted credit facility with the FHLB-Seattle
that provided for immediately available advances up to an aggregate amount of
$134.0 million, under which $61.8 million was outstanding at June 30, 2002.

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

The Bank's primary investing activity is the origination of one-to-four family
mortgage loans, commercial mortgage loans, and construction and land
development loans. At June 30, 2002, the Bank had loan commitments totaling
$20.2 million and undisbursed loans in process totaling $33.7 million. The
Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet current
loan commitments. Certificates of deposit that are scheduled to mature in
less than one year from June 30, 2002 totaled $99.1 million. Historically,
the Bank has been able to retain a significant amount of its deposits as they
mature.

17





Federally-insured state-chartered banks are required to maintained minimum
levels of regulatory capital. Under current FDIC regulations, insured
state-chartered banks generally must maintain (i) a ratio of Tier 1 leverage
capital to total assets of at least 3.0% (4.0% to 5.0% for all but the most
highly rated banks), (ii) a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets of
at least 4.0% and (iii) a ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets of at
least 8.0%. At June 30, 2002, the Bank was in compliance with all applicable
capital requirements. For additional details see "Regulatory Capital".
