See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. THE BOSTON BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Boston Bancorp ("Bancorp" or the "Company") was formed in October 1984 and, effective March 1, 1985, acquired all of the outstanding shares of the South Boston Savings Bank ("South Boston" or the "Bank") in exchange on a one-for-one basis for Bancorp common stock. Bancorp thereby became the holding company for the Bank. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore do not include information or all footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes, and other information included in Bancorp's Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended October 31, 1994. The financial information included herein reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the unaudited consolidated financial condition as of July 31, 1995 and October 31, 1994 and the unaudited consolidated results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended July 31, 1995 and 1994 and the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended July 31, 1995 and 1994. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. NOTE B) EARNINGS PER SHARE Primary earnings per share for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 and 1994 were calculated by adding the common stock equivalents, which would arise from the exercise of outstanding stock options granted under the Company's stock option plans, to the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. The number of shares used for calculating primary earnings per share for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 were 5,324,122 and 5,215,783, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1994, 5,377,916 and 5,467,570, respectively. The weighted average number of shares outstanding during the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 were 5,216,677 and 5,143,490, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1994 were 5,233,286 and 5,285,032, respectively. The calculation of the common stock equivalent under primary earnings per share is based, in part, on an average stock price for the period. The calculation of the common stock equivalent under fully diluted earnings per share is based, in part, on the price of the stock at the end of the period, if higher than the average price during the period. Fully diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 were based on 5,324,122 shares, and for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1994 were based on 5,398,340 and 5,467,570 shares, respectively. NOTE C) INVESTMENT AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE At October 31, 1993 the Company reclassified its investment and mortgage-backed securities portfolios as available for sale. As a result of the reclassifications, all investments and mortgage-backed securities are carried at fair value. Any after-tax net unrealized gain or loss on these securities will be recognized as a credit or charge to stockholders' equity. Securities classified as available for sale include securities that management intends to use as part of its asset/liability management strategy or that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, significant prepayment risk and similar economic factors. NOTE D) LOANS HELD FOR SALE Loans originated by the Bank, including educational, certain commercial loans, and residential loans which conform to specific underwriting standards outlined by FNMA and FHLMC, are classified as held for sale and recorded at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated market value. The amount by which cost exceeds market value, if any, is accounted for as a valuation allowance. Changes in the valuation allowances are included in the determination of net income of the period in which such a change occurs. Gains and losses on loan sales are determined using the specific identification method. Interest income on loans held for sale is accrued currently and classified as interest on loans. NOTE E) SUBSEQUENT EVENT - DIVIDEND PAYMENT On August 17, 1995, the Board of Directors of Bancorp voted a quarterly dividend of $.19 per share on each outstanding share of Bancorp common stock. Such dividend is payable on September 15, 1995 to stockholders of record on August 31, 1995. THE BOSTON BANCORP MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FINANCIAL CONDITION The total assets of The Boston Bancorp increased to $2.086 billion at July 31, 1995 from $2.033 billion at October 31, 1994, primarily as a result of an increase in the fair value of the Company's investment portfolio which is classified as available for sale under FAS 115. The deposits of the Bank decreased to $1.336 billion at July 31, 1995, from $1.398 billion at October 31, 1994. The decrease was offset, in part, by an increase in the Company's borrowings of approximately $14.4 million. At July 31, 1995, the Company's investment portfolio, which is comprised of investment securities, mortgage-backed securities and federal funds sold totaled $1.655 billion compared to $1.569 billion at October 31, 1994. The average life of the investment portfolio, including mortgage-backed securities, declined to 5.3 years at July 31, 1995 compared to 6.0 years at October 31, 1994. This decline is the result of portfolio restructuring designed to reduce interest rate risk on the Company's balance sheet. Despite these changes, the Company's investment portfolio remains sensitive to changes in interest rates, and the value of the portfolio would be favorably affected by a decline in prevailing rates and adversely affected by an increase in prevailing rates. At July 31, 1995, $219.6 million of the mortgage-backed securities portfolio was represented by Federal National Mortgage Association ( FNMA ), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ( FHLMC ), or Government National Mortgage Association ( GNMA ) adjustable-rate mortgages. The Bank's continued use of GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC 15-year mortgage-backed securities, both seasoned as well as newly issued FNMA and FHLMC 5 and 7-year balloon payment mortgage-backed issues, 30-year seasoned shorter weighted average maturity obligations issued by the above mentioned entities, and one and three year adjustable-rate mortgage-backed securities, has resulted in a mortgage-backed securities portfolio with an average life at July 31, 1995 of approximately 5.3 years. At July 31, 1995, the amortized cost of the Company's mortgage-backed securities portfolio exceeded its fair value by $8.8 million, as compared with an excess of amortized cost over fair value at October 31, 1994, of $61.0 million. The fair value of the Company's equities portfolio increased to $193.4 million at July 31, 1995 from $187.5 million at October 31, 1994. The fair value of preferred stock issues held by the Company totaled $10.4 million at July 31, 1995 compared to $17.4 million at October 31, 1994. The fair value of the common equity portfolio totaled $183.0 million at July 31, 1995, compared to $170.1 million at October 31, 1994. The common stock portfolio continues to be yield oriented and weighted towards public utility, telephone, bank, and other high quality dividend paying issues. At July 31, 1995, the fair value, net of tax, of the Company's investment portfolio, including mortgage-backed securities, was in excess of its amortized cost by $23.8 million, which under FAS 115 is included as a separate component of stockholders' equity in the Company's unaudited consolidated statements of financial condition as of July 31, 1995. At October 31, 1994, the fair value, net of tax benefit, of the investment portfolio had been $25.8 million less than its amortized cost. Loans, net, including loans held for sale, decreased to $359.4 million at July 31, 1995 from $368.4 million at October 31, 1994. Mortgage loan originations for the three months ended July 31, 1995 decreased to $5.7 million from $36.9 million for the comparable period ended July 31, 1994 due to a more competitive lending environment. Of the $5.7 million in mortgage loans originated during the three months ended July 31, 1995, $5.6 million were residential mortgage loans, of which $1.3 million were adjustable rate loans and $4.3 million were fixed rate loans. The remaining $0.1 million represents a loan secured by a multi-family residential property. Commercial real estate loans and loans secured by residential rental properties with more than four units are generally written on three or five year notes with interest rates fixed at the time of commitment. Options to extend the notes for another three or five years, subject to strict performance and valuation criteria, may be granted at origination and exercisable at maturity. Interest rates during the extended terms are based on pre-set spreads over U.S. Treasury securities with comparable maturities. Amortization periods are generally twenty years. Loans commitments outstanding as of July 31, 1995 totaled $5.2 million, compared to $12.1 million as of July 31, 1994, and were comprised of fixed and adjustable rate residential mortgage loans totaling $3.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively, as of July 31, 1995, and $3.5 million and $5.8 million, respectively, as of July 31, 1994, and commercial and multi-family mortgage loan commitments totaling $1.4 million as of July 31, 1995 and $2.8 million as of July 31, 1994. During the current fiscal quarter, the Bank entered into severance agreements with certain of its employees providing for either one or two years' compensation in the event of termination of employment following a change of control. Nonperforming Assets and Restructured Loans: The following table summarizes nonperforming assets and restructured loans at the dates shown. The Company ceases accruing interest on all loans delinquent 90 or more days.

(b) Substantive foreclosure is a circumstance in which a loan has reached such a status that it is economically the same as if the loan collateral is foreclosed. There are several criteria used to determine if a property has been substantively foreclosed. These criteria are: the borrower has little or no equity in the collateral, proceeds for repayment of the loan can be expected to come only from the operation or sale of the collateral and the borrower has either formally or effectively abandoned control of the collateral or retained control of the collateral, but, because of the current financial condition of the borrower or the economic prospects for the borrower and/or the collateral in the foreseeable future, it is doubtful that the borrower will be able to rebuild equity in the collateral or otherwise repay the loan in the foreseeable future. Total loans 90 or more days delinquent, FAS 66 loans, and mortgages substantively foreclosed and in foreclosure decreased to $17.1 million at July 31, 1995 from $23.0 million at October 31, 1994. This change is largely attributable to a decrease in FAS 66 loans to $6.6 million at July 31, 1995 from $10.1 million at October 31, 1994 reflecting the borrowers' increased investments in these properties, and a decrease in other real estate owned (mortgages substantively foreclosed or in foreclosure) to $4.1 million at July 31, 1995 from $7.8 million at October 31, 1994. Mortgage loans relating to FAS 66 or in foreclosure at July 31, 1995 were comprised of $3.0 million of loans secured by 1-4 family residential property (19 loans) and $7.7 million of loans secured by commercial real estate (8 loans). As of July 31, 1995, the Bank's allowance for possible loan losses totaled $11.1 million compared to $9.5 million at October 31, 1994. The provision for possible loan losses totaled $1.0 million for the fiscal 1995 third quarter. Charge-offs, net of recoveries, for the quarter ended July 31, 1995 totaled $398,000, including $200,000 of charge-offs on commercial real estate loans and $192,000 of net charge-offs on residential and multi-family real estate loans. The loan loss provision charged to operations and the related balance in the allowance for possible loan losses is based upon periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio by management. These evaluations consider several factors including, but not limited to, general economic conditions, loan portfolio composition, prior loss experience and management's estimation of future potential losses. While management uses available information to establish the allowance for possible loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary if economic developments differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for possible loan losses. Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance based on judgments different from those of management. The activity and the allowance for possible loan losses by type of loan is as follows: Nine Months Ended July 31, -------------------- 1995 1994 ---- ---- (Dollars in thousands) Balance at beginning of period .............. $ 9,471 $ 9,325 Additions to reserve: Commercial real estate .................... 2,220 3,840 Residential/multi-family real estate ...... 720 936 Consumer .................................. 60 24 ------- ------- Total ....................................... 3,000 4,800 ------- ------- Charge-offs (net of recoveries): Commercial real estate (a) ................ 670 3,391 Residential/multi-family real estate (b) .. 648 592 Consumer .................................. 73 64 ------- ------- Total ....................................... 1,391 4,047 ------- ------- Balance at end of period .................... $11,080 $10,078 ======= ======= (a) Includes reserve allocations in the amounts of $667,000 on four loans (two allocations totaling $519,000 are on performing loans), and $392,000 on three performing loans for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. (b) Includes reserve allocations in the amounts of $585,000 on six loans (three allocations totaling $502,000 are on performing loans), and $340,000 on two performing loans for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Restructured loans, net, decreased to $2.5 million at July 31, 1995 from $3.0 million at October 31, 1994. These loans were restructured as a result of increased vacancies and reduced rental rates. Specific reserves established for restructured loans totaled $953,000 at July 31, 1995 and $550,000 at October 31, 1994. Restructured loans at July 31, 1995 were comprised of $483,000 of first mortgage loans secured by 1-4 family residential property (2 loans), $1.9 million of first mortgage loans secured by 5 or more family residential property (2 loans), and $84,000 of first mortgage loans secured by commercial real estate (1 loan). These loans have interest rates ranging from 7.5% - 10.0% with a weighted average interest rate of 9.20%. Total deposits decreased 4.4% to $1.336 billion at July 31, 1995 from $1.398 billion at October 31, 1994. Because the rates paid on the Bank s short term deposits did not rise as rapidly as comparable market rates, primarily in the first fiscal quarter, monies flowed into more competitive accounts including bond and equity mutual funds. Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased to $427.3 million at July 31, 1995 from $470.0 million at October 31, 1994. Borrowings, comprised of reverse repurchase agreements, increased to $69.3 million at July 31, 1995 from $10.3 million at October 31, 1994. The increase in borrowings were utilized, in part, to offset deposit outflows. Stockholders' equity increased to $179.8 million at July 31, 1995 from $117.6 million at October 31, 1994. The increase in stockholders equity reflects a $49.5 million increase in net unrealized gain on securities available for sale, net of tax, from a net unrealized loss of $25.8 million at October 31, 1994 to a net unrealized gain of $23.7 million. Stockholders' equity also increased by $14.4 million of net income for the nine months ended July 31, 1995, while being reduced by $2.1 million utilized to repurchase shares of the Company s common stock under a stock repurchase program which was terminated in December 1994 and by dividends paid to stockholders of $2.9 million. Under current regulations of the FDIC, BIF-insured banks, including South Boston, are required to maintain minimum levels of Tier 1 capital. Highly rated banks (i.e., those with a composite rating of 1 under the CAMEL rating system and that are not experiencing or anticipating significant growth) are required to maintain Tier 1 capital of at least 3% of their total assets. For all other banks, the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets is 4% to 5%. The FDIC has authority to impose higher requirements for individual banks. The Bank is also required to maintain a minimum level of risk-based capital. Under the risk-based standards, BIF-insured institutions are required to have a ratio of risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of at least 8%. The Bank had ratios of Tier 1 capital to total assets of 6.81% and risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets of 18.17% at July 31, 1995. Based on its capital ratios as of July 31, 1995, the Bank believes it was "well capitalized" at such date under the FDIC's prompt corrective action regulations, assuming the absence of alternative classification by the FDIC based on other factors. RESULT OF OPERATIONS Net income for the three months ended July 31, 1995 decreased to $4.5 million, or $.84 per share (fully diluted), from $6.2 million, or $1.14 per share (fully diluted), for the three months ended July 31, 1994. Net income for the nine months ended July 31,1995 decreased to $14.4 million, or $2.71 per share (fully diluted), from $20.2 million, or $3.70 per share (fully diluted) for the nine months ended July 31, 1994. The decrease in net income for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 reflects lower net interest and dividend income resulting from higher rates of interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, increased operating expenses and loss on sales of loans, offset, in part, by higher net realized gains on securities during the current quarter. The fiscal quarter ended July 31, 1995 included one-time charges of approximately $942,000, or $0.18 per share on a tax-effected basis, related to the acquisition by the Bank of certain banking facilities from a limited partnership which had formerly leased the properties to the Bank. The amount paid by the Bank was sufficient to enable the partnership to repay its mortgage loans, including prepayment penalties, and also included lump sum payments to certain limited partners (all of whom are Bank employees) in satisfaction of their partnership claims. Without these expenses, net income for the fiscal 1995 third quarter would have totaled $5.4 million, or $1.02 per share. The Company anticipates an annual after-tax savings of approximately $300,000 resulting from this transaction. Net interest and dividend income for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 decreased 19.3% to $13.2 million and 8.3% to $42.6 million, respectively, as compared to $16.4 million and $46.5 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1994. The decreases primarily reflect higher rates of interest paid on all major categories of interest-bearing liabilities and a shift in the mix of liabilities, offset, in part, by higher rates of interest earned on investment securities. Interest earned on the investment portfolio totaled $26.9 million for the three month period ended July 31, 1995, compared with $26.6 million for the comparable period of 1994, and increased 4.6% to $81.2 million for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 from $77.6 million for the nine months ended July 31, 1994. This increase primarily reflects higher rates of interest earned during the nine months ended July 31, 1995 as compared with the same period in fiscal 1994. Interest income on the loan portfolio for the three months ended July 31, 1995 increased 3.5% to $8.6 million as compared to $8.3 million for the comparable period in fiscal 1994, and decreased 1.2% to $25.1 million for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 as compared to the nine months ended July 31, 1994. The income earned on the loan portfolio during the quarter ended July 31, 1995 was higher than in the third quarter of 1994, reflecting an increase in interest rates, and higher average balances outstanding during this quarter as compared with the same period in fiscal 1994. The income earned on loans was lower during the nine months ended July 31, 1995 as compared with the same period in fiscal 1994, due to lower average yield earned on loans, offset, in part, by higher average balances during the current period. The average balance of loans outstanding for the current fiscal year was affected by the conversion of $11.9 million of loans to mortgage-backed securities during the quarter ended January 31, 1995. The average balance of loans outstanding was also affected by the Bank's conversion of loans totaling $99.3 million to mortgage-backed securities during the fiscal year ended October 31, 1994. The following table sets forth the weighted average yields on the loan and investment portfolios, the weighted average rate paid on deposits, borrowings, medium-term notes and advances and the interest rate spread between yields earned on loans and investments and rates paid for funds during the periods indicated.

The average yield on the loan portfolio increased to 8.86% for the three months ended July 31, 1995, but decreased to 8.61% for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 reflecting lower average interest rates earlier in the current fiscal year, as compared to 8.76% for both the three and nine months ended July 31, 1994. The average yield on the investment portfolio increased to 6.78% and 6.77% for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, respectively, as compared to 6.66% and 6.46% for the same periods in fiscal 1994, due primarily to rising interest rates. Total interest expense increased to $22.4 million and $63.7 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, respectively, as compared to $18.6 million and $56.6 million for the same periods in 1994, primarily due to higher interest rates resulting in an increase in all major categories of interest expense offset, in part, by lower average balances in deposits. The weighted average cost of funds increased to 4.83% and 4.59% for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, respectively, as compared to 3.93% and 4.00% for the same periods in 1994. Total other income increased to $2.0 million from $809,000 for the three months ended July 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, due primarily to higher net realized gains on securities in the current quarter which totaled $3.4 million as compared to $251,000 in the quarter ended July 31, 1994, offset, in part, by a $2.0 million loss on sales of loans. Total other income decreased to $3.3 million from $9.8 million for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, due primarily to lower net realized gains on securities of $4.0 million and an increase in loss on sales of loans totaling $2.6 million in the current fiscal year as compared to $7.3 million in net realized gains and $2,000 in gain on sales of loans for the nine months ended July 31, 1994. Gross realized gains on the sales of securities totaled $8.4 million and $13.5 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, respectively. Gross realized losses on the sales of securities during such periods totaled $5.0 million and $9.5 million, respectively. Other operating income for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 decreased 13.8% to $330,000 and 33.8% to $1.1 million, respectively, as compared to $383,000 and $1.7 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1994. Other operating income was higher during the prior fiscal year due to the receipt of a state tax refund in the amount of $510,000 received by the Bank in February 1994, which reduced state tax expense, and accrued interest totaling $474,000 which is included in other operating income for the three and six months ended April 30, 1994. During the three months ended July 31, 1995, a $2.0 million loss on sales of loans was incurred primarily from a loss of $1.1 million on a loan with a remaining principal balance of approximately $2.8 million, and a $800,000 writedown on a loan held for sale. During the second fiscal quarter, a charge to income was taken in the amount of $1.0 million to writedown the value of a real estate loan held for sale, resulting in a loss on sales of loans in the amounts of $2.0 million and $2.6 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, respectively, from a gain of $2,000 for the fiscal nine month period in 1994. Total other expenses increased to $7.9 million and $22.4 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, respectively, as compared to $6.8 million and $21.4 million for the same periods in fiscal 1994, primarily due to increased fees for professional services, and expenses associated with the resolution of the limited partnership which had formerly leased certain banking facilities to the Bank. Fees for professional services increased to $1.6 million and $4.4 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, respectively, as compared to $492,000 and $1.7 million for the same periods in 1994. The additional professional services are being incurred in connection with resolutions previously adopted by the Board of Directors in response to regulatory examinations of the Bank and Company. Salaries and employees benefits expense, which increased by $242,000 to $3.6 million for the three months ended July 31, 1995, includes a payment in the amount of $933,000 to certain limited partners (all of whom are employees of the Bank) in satisfaction of their partnership-related claims. Salaries and employees benefits expense decreased by $599,000 to $9.8 million for the nine months ended July 31, 1995, reflecting a reduction in the Company's profit sharing provision for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 of $378,000 and $1.0 million, respectively, as compared to the same period in fiscal 1994. Expenses associated with other real estate for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 decreased $374,000 and $1.2 million, to ($247,000) and ($511,000), respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1994, reflecting increased rental income received through the operation of other real estate owned. Other operating expenses for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995 increased to $1.3 million and $3.6 million, respectively, as compared to $1.0 million and $3.2 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1994, respectively, due primarily to expenses in the amount of $413,000 related to the acquisition of the formerly leased banking facilities paid during the quarter ended July 31, 1995. The provision for federal and state taxes decreased to $1.8 million and $6.2 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, respectively, as compared to $2.7 million and $9.8 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1994, respectively, reflecting lower effective tax rates and pretax income resulting from lower net realized gains on the sale of securities during the nine months ended July 31, 1995. The combined federal and state income tax rate decreased to approximately 30% and 33% for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. This decrease stems from the fact that a larger percentage of pretax income for the three and nine months ended July 31, 1995, as compared to the same periods in 1994, is taxed at a lower rate.
