Basis of Presentation Harrodsburg First Financial Bancorp, Inc. ("Company" or "HFFB") is a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware. On July 15, 2001, the Company converted to a bank holding company. The activities of the Company are primarily limited to holding stock in two banks, First Financial Bank ("First Financial"), a wholly-owned subsidiary, and Citizens Financial Bank, Inc. ("Citizens"), in which the Company acquired a 55.8% interest on July 15, 2001. In addition, on December 31, 2002, the Company finalized the purchase of a 22.53% interest in Independence Bancorp of New Albany ("Independence"), which is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Independence is a bank holding company, which has one bank subsidiary. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for fair presentation have been included. The results of operations and other data for the three-month period ended December 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 2003. 2. Purchase of Interest in Bank Holding Company On December 31, 2002, the Company acquired 200,000 shares of common stock in Independence Bancorp of New Albany at a cost of $10 per share for a total purchase price of $2,000,000. The Company owns a 22.53% interest in Independence and the transaction resulted in the Company recording a core deposit intangible asset of $265,872. This intangible asset is the excess of the purchase price of $2.0 million over the Company's interest acquired in the consolidated book value of Independence at December 31, 2002. This intangible asset will be amortized over its expected useful life. The consolidated assets and stockholders' equity of Independence at December 31, 2002 amounted to $89.6 million and $7.7 million, respectively. 3. Treasury stock The Company repurchased a total of 5,900 shares of common stock at a total price of $77,697 during the three months ended December 31, 2002. 4.

These forward-looking statements involve risks that uncertainties, such as statements of the Company's plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions, that are subject to changes based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Company's control). The following factors, among others, could cause the Company's financial performance to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements: the Strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economy in which the Company conducts operations; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the board of governors of the federal reserve system, inflation, interest rates, market and monetary fluctuations; the timely development of and acceptance of new products and services of the Company and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors' products and services; the willingness of users to substitute competitors' products and services for the Company's products and services; the success of the Company in gaining regulatory approval of its products and services, when required; the impact of changes in financial services' laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); technological changes; acquisitions; changes in consumer spending and savings habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks resulting from these factors. The Company cautions that the listed factors are not exclusive. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the Company. Recent Legislation to Curtail Corporate Accounting Irregularities On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act"). The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") has promulgated certain regulations pursuant to the Act and will continue to propose additional implementing or clarifying regulations as necessary in furtherance of the Act. The passage of the Act and the regulations implemented by the SEC subject publicly-traded companies to additional and more cumbersome reporting regulations and disclosure. Compliance with the Act and corresponding regulations may increase the Company's expenses. Financial Condition The Company's consolidated assets increased approximately $1.6 million, or 1.1% to $154.7 million at December 31, 2002 compared to $153.1 million at September 30, 2002. The increase in assets of $1.6 million was funded primarily by an increase in deposits of $5.4 million net of $4.0 million used to repay advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. 9 Securities available-for-sale increased $1.3 million to $18.5 million at December 31, 2002. The increase of $1.3 million is due to a purchase of U.S. Government Agency backed securities totaling $3.6 million, the increase in the unrealized fair value of these securities totaling $300,000, offset by the sale of mortgage derivative securities totaling $2.6 million. Securities held-to-maturity decreased $1.0 million to $1.2 million at December 31, 2002 due to the maturity of two $500,000 U.S. Government Agency bonds. Loans receivable, net decreased $3.4 million to $110.0 million at December 31, 2002. Net loans for First Financial decreased $5.1 million, which was offset in part by a net increase in loans for Citizens of $1.7 million. The decrease of $5.1 million in loans for First Financial was primarily due to the repricing of loans and the refinancing of loans by customers resulting from the current interest rate environment. The increase in loans for Citizens of $1.7 million represents management's efforts to increase loan growth in the Bank's market area. The investment in Independence Bancorp of New Albany for $1.7 million was purchased on December 31, 2002. The Company paid $2.0 million for a 22.53% interest in Independence, which resulted in approximately $300,000 recorded as an intangible asset identified as core deposit value. Total interest bearing liabilities increased $1.4 million to $128.3 million at December 31, 2002 compared to $126.9 million at September 30, 2002. Total deposits for First Financial increased $2.6 million during this period while the total deposits of Citizens increased $2.8 million. The $5.4 million increase in interest-bearing deposits was offset by the repayment of $4.0 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Stockholders' equity was $22.5 million at December 31, 2002, an increase of approximately $500,000 from the balance at September 30, 2002. The increase in stockholders' equity was due to net income of $310,000, an increase in net unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities of $199,000 plus an increase of $39,000 from the release of ESOP shares, offset in part by the purchase of Company stock totaling $78,000. Net Income Net income increased $201,000, or 183.4%, to $310,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. Net interest income increased $138,000, non-interest income increased $203,000, and the provisions for loan losses decreased $13,000, which were offset by an increase of $26,000 in non-interest expense, an increase of $57,000 in income tax expense and a decrease of $70,000 in Citizens' loss. Net Interest Income Net interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2002 was $1.1 million. The increase in net interest income of $138,000 in the quarter ended December 31, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001 was due to a decrease in interest expense of $235,000, partially offset by a decrease in interest income of $97,000. Interest income in the 2002 period was $2.2 million with an average yield of 5.69% compared to $2.3 million with an average yield of 6.62% in the 2001 period. Interest expense in the 2002 period was $1.1 million with an average rate paid of 3.36% compared to $1.3 million with an average rate paid of 4.59% in the 2001 period. 10 Interest Income Interest income was $2.2 million, or 5.69% of average interest-earning assets for the three months ended December 31, 2002 compared to $2.3 million, or 6.62% of average interest-earning assets for the same period in 2001. The decrease in interest income of $97,000 was due to the reduced yields from lower market interest rates earned in 2002 compared to 2001 offset in part by an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets in 2002. The average balance of interest-earning assets was $151.9 million in the three month period ended December 31, 2002 compared to $136.6 million for this same period in 2001. Interest Expense Interest expense was $1.1 million, or 3.36% of average interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended December 31, 2002 compared to $1.3 million, or 4.59% of average interest-bearing liabilities for the same period in 2001. The decrease in interest expense of $235,000 was due to the reduction in the rates paid on the average interest-bearing liabilities in 2002 compared to 2001, offset in part by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities in 2002. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities was $128.2 million in the three month period ended December 31, 2002 compared to $114.2 million for the same period in 2001. Provision for Losses on Loans The provision for losses is charged to operations to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level that represents management's best estimate of the losses inherent in the portfolio based on: - Historical experience; - Volume; - Type of lending; - Industry standards; - The level and status of past due and non-performing loans; - The general and local economic conditions; and - Other factors affecting the collectibility of the loans in the portfolio. For the three months ended December 31, 2002, the provision for loan losses decreased by $12,900 to $29,100 compared to $42,000 for the same period in 2001. The provision in 2002 of $29,100 was related to the continued growth of Citizens' loan portfolio, which increased by a net $1.7 million during the three month period ended December 31, 2002. The loan portfolio for First Financial decreased by a net $5.1 million in the 2002 period, and no change in the allowance for loan losses related to the First Financial loan portfolio was deemed necessary by management. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that represents management's best estimates of losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. However, there can be no assurance that the allowance for losses will be adequate to cover losses, which may be realized in the future and that additional provisions for losses will not be required. 11 Non-interest Income Non-interest income was $275,000 and $72,000 for the quarters ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Other non-interest income increased by $196,000 to $204,000 in 2002, primarily due to a $118,000 gain on the sale by First Financial of branch facilities which were replaced by new facilities in 2001. The increase in non-interest income was also attributable to increases in the Company's bank owned life insurance cash value increase of $44,000, and a gain of $18,000 on the sale of available-for-sale securities. Non-Interest Expense Non-interest expense increased approximately $26,000, or 3.1% to $864,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 2002 compared to $838,000 for the same period in 2001. Other non-interest expense increased $30,000, primarily due to $24,000 in legal expenses incurred in connection with the investment in Independence Bancorp of New Albany. 12 Non-Performing Assets The following table sets forth information with respect to non-performing assets at the dates indicated. No loans were recorded as restructured loans within the meaning of SFAS No. 15 at the dates indicated.

At December 31, 2002, there were no loans identified by management, which were not reflected in the preceding table, but as to which known information about possible credit problems of borrowers caused management to have serious doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms. The actual capital and the related capital levels as defined by the OTS and FDIC based on the accompanying consolidated financial statements are as follows (in thousands): December 31, 2002 ----------------------------------------------------- First Financial Citizens ------------------------- -------------------------- Amount % Amount % ------------------------- -------------------------- Total risk-based capital (to risk-weighted assets) $13,512 20.60% $3,968 18.36% Tier I capital (to risk-weighted assets) $13,129 20.02% $3,738 17.30% Tier I capital (to adjusted total assets) $13,129 11.18% $3,738 18.36% ---------------------------- (1) Non-accrual status denotes any loan past due 90 days and whose loan balance, plus accrued interest, exceeds 90% of the estimated loan collateral value. Payments received on a non-accrual loan are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, or both, depending on assessment of the collectibility of the loan. (2) Other non-performing assets represent property acquired through foreclosure or repossessions accounted for as a foreclosure in-substance. This property is carried at the fair market of the property value, net of selling expenses. 13 September 30, 2002 ----------------------------------------------------- First Financial Citizens ------------------------- -------------------------- Amount % Amount % ------------------------- -------------------------- Total risk-based capital (to risk-weighted assets) $14,485 21.11% $3,994 19.68% Tier I capital (to risk-weighted assets) $14,102 20.55% $3,752 18.49% Tier I capital (to adjusted total assets) $14,102 11.67% $3,752 19.68% The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") required each federal banking agency to implement prompt corrective actions for institutions that it regulates. In response to this requirement, regulations were adopted requiring banks to meet specified capital requirements. The rules provide that a bank is "well capitalized" if its total risk-based capital ratio is 10% or greater, its Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio is 6% or greater, its leverage capital ratio is 5% or greater and the institution is not subject to a capital directive. Under these regulations, First Financial and Citizens were deemed to be "well capitalized" as of December 31, 2002 and September 30, 2002. There are no conditions or events since those notifications that management believes would change its classifications. Liquidity The liquidity of the Company depends primarily on the dividends paid to it by First Financial and Citizens. The payment of cash dividends by First Financial and Citizens on their common stocks is limited by regulations of the OTS and the FDIC, which are tied to their level of compliance with their regulatory capital requirements. First Financial's and Citizens' primary sources of funds are deposits and proceeds from principal and interest payments of loans. Additional sources of liquidity are advances from the FHLB of Cincinnati and other borrowings, such as Federal Funds purchased. At December 31, 2002, First Financial had advances from the FHLB totaling $1.0 million. First Financial utilizes FHLB of Cincinnati borrowings during periods when management believes that such borrowings provide a lower cost source of funds than deposit accounts and it desires liquidity in order to help expand its lending operations. The Company's operating activities produced positive cash flows for the quarters ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. The Company's most liquid assets are cash and cash-equivalents, which include investments in highly liquid, short-term investments. At December 31, 2002 and September 30, 2002, cash and cash equivalents totaled $15.1 million and $9.6 million, respectively. At December 31, 2002, First Financial and Citizens had $78.1 million in certificates of deposits due within one year and $21.3 million due between one and three years. Management believes, based on past experience, that First Financial and Citizens will retain much of the deposits or replace them with new deposits. At December 31, 2002, First Financial and Citizens had $1.4 million in outstanding commitments to originate mortgages, unused home equity and commercial lines of credit totaling $3.0 million and available construction loan draws of $1.7 million. First Financial and Citizens intend to fund these commitments with short-term investments and proceeds from loan repayments. 14 Item 3 Controls and Procedures (a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
