See notes to consolidated financial statements 6 TF FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2002 (unaudited) and December 31, 2001 and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 (unaudited) include the accounts of TF Financial Corporation (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiaries Third Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), TF Investments Corporation, Penns Trail Development Corporation and Teragon Financial Corporation. The Company's business is conducted principally through the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all of the disclosures or footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other period. For further information, refer to consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. NOTE 3 - CONTINGENCIES The Company, from time to time, is a party to routine litigation that arises in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of this litigation, if any, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. NOTE 4 - OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) The Company's other comprehensive income consists of net unrealized gains on investment securities and mortgage-backed securities available for sale. Total comprehensive income for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was $1,682,000 and $2,180,000, net of applicable income tax of $596,000 and $919,000, respectively. Total comprehensive income for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was $5,416,000 and $5,700,000, net of applicable income tax of $2,052,000 and $2,255,000, respectively. NOTE 5- RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. 7 NOTE 6- NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, "Business Combinations", SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets", and SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". The adoption of these statements did not have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company. On January 1, 2002, the Company also adopted Statement of Position (SOP) 01-6, "Accounting by Certain Entities That Lend to or Finance the Activities of Others", which reconciles and conforms existing differences in the accounting and financial reporting guidance in the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guides, Banks and Savings Institutions, Audits of Credit Unions, and Audits of Finance Companies. It also carries forward accounting guidance for practices deemed to be unique to certain financial institutions. The adoption of this SOP had no impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. On October 1, 2002 the FASB issued SFAS No. 147,"Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions." Except for transactions between two or more mutual enterprises, SFAS No. 147 removes the acquisitions of financial institutions from the scope of both SFAS No. 72 and FASB Interpretation No. 9 and requires that those transactions be accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142. Thus, the requirement of SFAS No. 72 to recognize (and subsequently amortize) any excess of the fair value of liabilities assumed over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired ("SFAS 72 Goodwill") as an unidentifiable intangible no longer applies to acquisitions within the scope of SFAS No. 147. In addition, SFAS No. 147 amends SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," to include within its scope long-term customer relationship intangible assets of financial institutions such as depositor-relationship intangible assets. Consequently, those intangible assets are subject to undiscounted cash flow recoverability tests and impairment loss recognition and measurement provisions. Finally, SFAS No. 147 provides that branch acquisitions that meet the definition of a business should be accounted for as a business combination. SFAS No. 147 is effective October 1, 2002, although earlier application is permitted. The Company has elected to apply SFAS No. 147 as of January 1, 2002. The Company had $4,324,000 of SFAS 72 Goodwill at December 31, 2001 related to a 1996 branch acquisition that management of the Company has concluded was a business combination. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 147, as of July 1, 2002 the Company has restated its financial information to remove the amortization of goodwill from the Unaudited Consolidated Statement of Earnings retroactive to January 1, 2002. Accordingly, net income for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002 is restated to $1,285,000 and $995,000, respectively. In addition, the Company will test the goodwill for impairment prior to its fiscal year ending December 31, 2002. No impairment has been previously recognized. 8 TF FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL TF Financial Corporation may from time to time make written or oral "forward-looking statements", including statements contained in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the exhibits thereto), in its reports to stockholders and in other communications by the Company, which are made in good faith by the Company pursuant to the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company's plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions that are subject to change 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 economies 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 rate, 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 saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks involved in the foregoing. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is 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. Financial Condition The Company's total assets at September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 were $726.1 million and $711.2 million, respectively, an increase of $14.9 million, or 2.1%, during the nine-month period. The increase in total assets was primarily the result of deposit growth that was first used to repay advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank and then invested in interest-earning assets. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $32.8 million. Investment securities increased by $9.6 million due to the purchase of $13.3 million of such securities. Mortgage-backed securities available for sale increased by $30.1 million as $68.0 million in purchases of such securities more than off-set the principal paydowns received from these securities. Mortgage-backed securities held to maturity decreased by $28.8 million due to the high rate of prepayments of the mortgages underlying these pass-through securities. Similarly, high prepayments of existing mortgages in the loans receivable portfolio more than off-set new loans closed and purchased, causing a net decrease of $28.0 million in loans receivable. Total liabilities increased by $10.6 million due to $16.1 million in deposit growth, less $5.0 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, which were repaid as they matured. Non-interest bearing 9 demand deposits grew by $1.2 million while interest-bearing checking accounts increased by $1.6 million. Savings and money market accounts grew by $11.2 million and certificates of deposit increased by $2.1 million. Total consolidated stockholders' equity of the Company was $62.4 million or 8.59% of total assets at September 30, 2002, compared to $58.0 million or 8.15% of assets at December 31, 2001. During the first nine months of 2002 the Company repurchased 16,894 shares of its common stock and issued 21,338 shares pursuant to the exercise of stock options. As of September 30, 2002, there were approximately 114,000 shares available for repurchase under a previously announced share repurchase plan, and the Company will continue to repurchase shares as share availability and market conditions permit. Asset Quality During the third quarter of 2002, the Company's provision for loan and lease losses was $150,000 compared with $124,000 during the third quarter of 2001. The Company has not experienced any significant deterioration in its asset quality during the third quarter of 2002, nor has the Company experienced any significant change in the composition of its non-performing assets during such period. The following table sets forth information regarding the Company's asset quality (dollars in thousands): < September 30, December 31, ------------- ------------ 2002 2001 ---- ---- Non-performing loans $3,275 $3,776 Ratio of non-performing loans to gross loans 0.93% 0.99% Ratio of non-performing loans to total assets 0.45% 0.53% Foreclosed property $ 84 $ 40 Foreclosed property to total assets 0.01% 0.01% Ratio of total non-performing assets to total assets 0.46% 0.54% Management maintains an allowance for loan and lease losses at levels that are believed to be adequate; however, there can be no assurances that further additions will not be necessary or that losses inherent in the existing loan and lease portfolios will not exceed the allowance.

Changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately based on the absolute value of changes due to volume and changes due to rate.

Total interest income decreased by $1.4 million or 12.5% to $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared with the third quarter of 2001 primarily because of the consequences of a substantial decrease in market interest rates. Since the beginning of the first quarter of 2001, the Federal Reserve Board lowered the federal funds rate eleven times from 6.50% to 1.75%. Longer term market interest rates also decreased significantly. As a result, the Company's callable investment securities were called, higher coupon mortgage-related securities were paid down at an accelerated rate, and loans receivable were refinanced by borrowers at lower rates, or away from the Bank, resulting in large paydowns of higher yielding loans. In addition, the interest rates on the Company's adjustable rate loans adjusted downward. Thus, each component of the Company's earning assets produced less interest income because of declining market interest rates. In addition, the repayment of these mortgage-related assets produced cash and cash equivalents in amounts greater than the Corporation was able to reinvest back into longer-term, higher-yielding assets; thus, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were significantly higher during the 2002 period, while the rate earned on these assets, the federal funds rate minus 25 basis points, was substantially lower during the 2002 period. At September 30, 2002 cash and cash equivalents totaled $102.0 million or 14.0% of total assets. Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $1.0 million or 15.5% to $5.6 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2002. An increase in deposit interest expense due to an increase in the average balance of deposits was more than offset by lower market interest rates during the period and the lower rates paid on the Company's renewing certificates of deposit that had been originated when market interest rates were higher. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2001 and the first nine months of 2002, the 12 Company lowered the interest rates paid on several of its other deposit products in order to keep them in line with short term market interest rates, mainly the federal funds rate. Non-interest income. Total non-interest income was $982,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2002 compared with $474,000 for the same period in 2001. The increase is due to $419,000 in gains on sales of securities and an $87,000 increase in income from the Corporation's bank-owned life insurance which was purchased during August 2001. Non-interest expense. Total non-interest expense decreased by $194,000 to $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. The decrease in non-interest expenses is largely attributable to the elimination of $111,000 in amortization of goodwill. Please refer to Note 6 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for an explanation. The Company's effective tax rate during the third quarter of 2002 was 24.2% compared with 25.3% during the third quarter of 2001. The decrease is due to the purchase of bank-owned life insurance during August 2001. 13 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001 Net Income. The Company recorded net income of $3,655,000, or $1.34 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 as compared to $4,097,000, or $1.54 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Average Balance Sheet The following table sets forth information relating to the Company's average balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated. The yields and costs are computed by dividing income or expense by the average daily balance of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, respectively, for the periods indicated.

(3) Interest-rate spread represents the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. (4) Net yield on interest-earning assets represents net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. 14 Rate/Volume Analysis The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the change in interest income and interest expense (in thousands) attributed to (i) changes in volume (changes in the weighted average balance of the total interest earning asset and interest bearing liability portfolios multiplied by the prior year rate), and (ii) changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior year volume). Changes attributable to the combined impact of volume and rate have been allocated proportionately based on the absolute value of changes due to volume and changes due to rate. Nine months ended September 30, 2002 vs. 2001 ------------------------------------------ Increase (decrease) due to ------------------------------------------ Volume Rate Net ------------------------------------------ Interest income: Loans receivable, net $ (33) $(1,924) $(1,957) Mortgage-backed securities (561) (989) (1,550) Investment securities (168) (524) (692) Other interest-earning assets 790 (1,130) (340) ----------------------------------------- Total interest-earning assets 28 (4,567) (4,539) ========================================= Interest expense: Deposits 1,013 (3,627) (2,614) Advances from the FHLB and other borrowings (476) (118) (594) ----------------------------------------- Total interest-bearing liabilities 537 (3,745) (3,208) ========================================= Net change in net interest income $(509) $ (822) $(1,331) ========================================= Total Interest Income. Total interest income decreased by $4.5 million or 12.7% to $31.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared with the first nine months of 2001 primarily because of the consequences of a substantial decrease in market interest rates. Since the beginning of the first quarter of 2001, the Federal Reserve Board lowered the federal funds rate eleven times from 6.50% to 1.75%. Longer term market interest rates also decreased significantly. As a result the Company's callable investment securities were called, higher coupon mortgage-related securities were paid down at an accelerated rate, and loans receivable were refinanced by borrowers at lower rates, or away from the Bank, resulting in large paydowns of higher yielding loans. In addition, the interest rates on the Company's adjustable rate loans adjusted downward. Thus, each component of the Company's earning assets produced less interest income because of declining market interest rates. In addition, the repayment of these mortgage-related assets produced cash and cash equivalents in amounts greater than the Corporation was able to reinvest back into longer-term, higher-yielding assets; thus, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were significantly higher during the 2002 period, while the rate earned on these assets, the federal funds rate minus 25 basis points, was substantially lower during the 2002 period. At September 30, 2002 cash and cash equivalents totaled $102.0 million or 14.0% of total assets. Total Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $1.3 million or 15.7% to $17.3 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. An increase in deposit interest expense due to an increase in the average balance of deposits was more than offset by lower market interest rates during the period and the lower rates paid on the Company's renewing certificates of deposit that had been originated when market interest rates were higher. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2001 and the first nine months of 2002, the Company lowered the interest rates paid on several of its other deposit products in order to keep them in line with short term market interest rates, mainly the federal funds rate. 15 Non-interest income. Total non-interest income was $1,988,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 compared with $1,683,000 for the same period in 2001. The net increase is due to $419,000 in gains on sales of securities during the third quarter of 2002 and a $347,000 increase in income from the Corporation's bank-owned life insurance which was purchased during August 2001, off-set in part by $444,000 non-recurring gain on the sale of real estate which occurred during the second quarter of 2001. Non-interest expense. Total non-interest expense decreased by $765,000 to $10.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. The decrease in non-interest expenses is largely attributable to the elimination of $333,000 in amortization of goodwill. Please refer to Note 6 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for an explanation. Occupancy and equipment expense decreased in part because the Company sold one of its branch offices during the fourth quarter of 2001, and also because maintenance expenses were unusually high during the first quarter of 2001 due to inclement weather. Professional fees were lower during the first nine months of 2002 compared to the year earlier period mainly due to $60,000 of costs incurred during the first quarter of 2001 associated with the implementation of in-house item processing and statement rendering capabilities. The decrease in the other operating expense category is caused by decreased loan servicing fees which were lower by $73,000 due to a decrease in the amount of loans serviced by others, and decreased deposit account servicing charges, net of a related increase in postage expense, which were lower by $89,000 because the Company began servicing customer accounts using in-house item processing and statement rendering capabilities installed during the first quarter of 2001. The Company's effective tax rate during the first nine months of 2002 was 23.9% compared with 25.9% during the first nine months of 2001. The decrease is due to the purchase of bank-owned life insurance during August 2001. 16 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Liquidity The Company's liquidity is a measure of its ability to fund loans, pay withdrawals of deposits, and other cash outflows in an efficient, cost-effective manner. The Company's short-term sources of liquidity include maturity, repayment and sales of assets, excess cash and cash equivalents, new deposits, broker deposits, other borrowings, and new advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. There has been no material adverse change during nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 in the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to fund their operations. At September 30, 2002, the Company had commitments outstanding under letters of credit of $1.5 million, commitments to originate or purchase loans of $31.0 million, and commitments to fund undisbursed balances of closed loans and unused lines of credit of $27.1 million. Capital Requirements The Bank is in compliance with all of its capital requirements as of September 30, 2002. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Asset and Liability Management The Company's market risk exposure is predominately caused by interest rate risk, which is defined as the sensitivity of the Company's current and future earnings, the values of its assets and liabilities, and the value of its capital to changes in the level of market interest rates. Management of the Company believes that there has not been a material adverse change in market risk during the nine months ended September 30, 2002.
