NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements of CFS Bancorp, Inc. (including its
consolidated subsidiaries, the Company) included herein are unaudited; however,
such information reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation for the interim periods. The financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
The annualized results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year
ending December 31, 2004. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are
unaudited and do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete
presentation of financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The March 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes for the year
ended December 31, 2003 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States 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 income and expense during
the reported period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period's consolidated
financial statements to place them on a basis comparable with the current
period's consolidated financial statements.
2. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for its stock options in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued by Employees (APB
No. 25). Under APB No. 25, as the exercise price of the Company's employees'
stock options, which have been granted, equals the market price of the
underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.
Compensation expense for shares granted under the Recognition and Retention Plan
(RRP) is ratably recognized over the period of service, usually the vesting
period, based on the fair value of the stock on the date of grant.
Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (FAS No. 123), pro forma net income and
pro forma earnings per share are presented in the following table as if the fair
value method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans had been utilized.
The effects of applying FAS No. 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not
indicative of future amounts.

Pro forma diluted earnings per share ...... 0.09 0.04
The fair value of the option grants for the three months ended March 31,
2004 and 2003 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option value model, with the
following assumptions:
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
----------------------------
2004 2003
-------- --------
Dividend yield .......... 3.0% 3.1%
Expected volatility ..... 27.8 30.2
Risk free interest ...... 3.1 3.9
Original expected life... 10 years 10 years
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable. Option valuation models such as the Black-Scholes
require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock
price volatility. The Company's stock options have characteristics significantly
different from traded options and, inasmuch as changes in the subjective input
assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's
opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single
measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.
3. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Change in the fair value of securities available-for-sale is presented on
a net basis on the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders' Equity.

5. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities
In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46),
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. The objective of this
interpretation is to provide guidance on how to identify a variable interest
entity (VIE) and determine when the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling
interest, and results of operations of a VIE need to be included in a company's
consolidated financial statements.
In December 2003, the FASB reissued FIN 46 with certain modifications and
clarifications. Application of this guidance was effective for interests in
certain VIEs commonly referred to as special-purpose entities (SPEs) as of
December 31, 2003. Application for all other types of entities is required for
periods ending after March 15, 2004, unless previously applied. The adoption of
FIN 46 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations,
financial position, or liquidity because the Company has not identified any
VIEs.
6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
9
On April 1, 2004, a substantial portion of the remaining shares in the
Company's Recognition and Retention Plan (RRP), a stock-based incentive plan,
became fully vested. The amortized cost related to these shares was $1.2
million, which had been accrued over the past 12 months. On April 1, 2004, the
remaining 1,050 shares available for grant were granted to two employees. As of
April 1, 2004, there was a total of 17,850 shares that have not yet vested and
will vest at the rate of 20% per year from the date of grant.
Subsequent to March 31, 2004, the Company foreclosed on a motel located
South of Chicago, Illinois which had secured a commercial real estate loan. As
of March 31, 2004, the book value of this loan was $4.5 million and the Company
had $1.4 million of its allowance for losses on loans allocated to this loan.
After taking a $1.8 million charge-off, the Company transferred the asset to
real estate owned at its net realizable value. The Company has received a $2.7
million offer to purchase this asset from an independent third-party for cash.
The Company has a signed contract for sale and anticipates closing to take place
during the second quarter of 2004.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
When used in this Form 10-Q or future filings by the Company with the SEC,
in the Company's press releases or other public or stockholder communications,
the words or phrases "would be," "will allow," "intends to," "will likely
result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimate,"
"project," or similar expressions, or the negative thereof, are intended to
identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any
such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and to
advise readers that various factors, including regional and national economic
conditions, changes in levels of market interest rates, credit and other risks
which are inherent in the Company's lending and investment activities,
legislative changes, changes in the cost of funds, demand for loan products and
financial services, changes in accounting principles and competitive and
regulatory factors, could affect the Company's financial performance and could
cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from
those anticipated or projected. Such forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance. The Company does not undertake, and
specifically disclaims any obligation, to update any forward-looking statements
to reflect occurrences or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date
of such statements.
OVERVIEW
The Company's net income increased to $1.2 million ($0.11 diluted earnings
per share) for the first quarter 2004, up from $654,000 ($0.06 diluted earnings
per share) for the same period of 2003. During the three months ended March 31,
2004, the financial services industry continued to be impacted by the low
interest rate environment.
10
While refinancing and prepayment activity slowed from the record levels
felt during the year ended 2003, the Company was able to increase its net
interest margin to 1.98% for the first quarter 2004 from 1.81% for the previous
year period. The improvement in net interest margin was primarily related to the
Company's lower average cost of deposits during the first quarter of 2004, which
amounted to 1.67%, down 63 basis points from 2.30% for the first quarter of
2003.
The Company's fixed-rate Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings continue
to significantly impact earnings as the average cost on these borrowings for the
first quarter 2004 was 6.02%, relatively stable from the average cost during the
first quarter 2003 of 5.96%. While the advances can be prepaid, the Company
would incur a substantial prepayment penalty, calculated based on the present
value of the future cash flows discounted at current interest rates. As of March
31, 2004, the Company estimated the prepayment penalty to be $61.9 million to
pay off its aggregate FHLB advances. With an anticipated increase in interest
rates, the Company expects the estimated prepayment penalties to decrease in
future periods. The Company will continue to evaluate its FHLB advances and the
associated prepayment penalties.
The Company's income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2004
was $21,000 or 1.7% of pre-tax income compared to income tax expense of $313,000
or 32.4% of pre-tax income for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The
significant decrease in income tax expense resulted primarily from the
application of available tax credits and the effects of permanent tax
differences on the Company's pre-tax earnings. The Company anticipates that
these tax credits and permanent differences will continue to have a favorable
impact on tax expense throughout the remainder of 2004.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and follow
general practices within the industry in which it operates. Application of these
principles requires management to make estimates or judgments that affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These
estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial
statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements
could reflect different estimates or judgments. Certain policies inherently have
a greater reliance on the use of estimates, and as such have a greater
possibility of producing results that could be materially different than
originally reported. Estimates or judgments are necessary when assets and
liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the
value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants
an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an
asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying
assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial
statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record
valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on
quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party sources, when
available. When third-party information is not available, valuation adjustments
are estimated in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal
cash flow modeling techniques.
The most significant accounting policies followed by the Company are
presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. These policies
along with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes and
in this Management's Discussion and Analysis, provide
11
information on the methodology and policies relating to the valuation of
significant assets and liabilities. Management views critical accounting
policies to be those which are highly dependent on subjective or complex
judgments, estimates and assumptions, and where changes in those estimates and
assumptions could have a significant impact on the financial statements.
Management currently views the determination of the allowance for losses on
loans to be a critical accounting policy.
Allowance for Losses on Loans. The allowance for losses on loans
represents management's estimates of probable credit losses inherent in the loan
portfolio, which is the largest asset type on the Company's consolidated balance
sheet. Estimating the amount of the allowance for losses on loans requires
significant judgments using estimates such as the amount and timing of expected
future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous
loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of current economic
trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change.
Loan losses are charged off against the allowance, while recoveries of amounts
previously charged off are credited to the allowance. The Company establishes
provisions for losses on loans, which are charged to operations, in order to
maintain the allowance for losses on loans at a level which is deemed
appropriate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio.
In determining the appropriate level of the allowance for losses on loans,
among other factors, management considers:
- past and anticipated loss experience,
- evaluations of real estate collateral,
- current and anticipated economic conditions,
- volume and type of lending, and
- levels of non-performing and other classified loans.
The amount of the allowance is based on estimates, and ultimate losses may
vary from such estimates. Management assesses the allowance for losses on loans
on a quarterly basis and makes appropriate provisions to maintain the allowance
at an appropriate level. The actual determination of the total provision is the
combination of specific reserves, which may be established from time to time on
individual classified assets and a general reserve that is based in part on
certain loss factors applied to various loan pools as stratified by the Company
considering historical charge-offs and delinquency levels. To the extent that
actual outcomes differ from management estimates, an additional provision for
loan losses could be required that could adversely affect earnings or financial
position in future periods. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an
integral part of their examination processes, periodically review the provision
for losses on loans for Citizens Financial Services, FSB (the Bank or Citizens)
and the carrying value of its other non-performing assets, based on information
available to them at the time of their examinations. Any of these agencies could
require the Bank to make additional provisions for losses on loans in the
future.
Additionally, the Company engages an independent third party to
periodically review its commercial loans and commercial real estate loans. The
recommendations of this review are reviewed and compared to the Company's asset
classification, and adjustments are made as deemed appropriate by management.
12
Goodwill and Intangible Assets. The Company records all assets and
liabilities acquired in purchase acquisitions, including goodwill and other
intangibles, at fair value as required by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill and
indefinite-lived assets are no longer amortized but are subject, at a minimum,
to annual tests for impairment. Under certain situations, interim impairment
tests may be required if events occur or circumstances change that would more
likely than not reduce the fair value of an asset below its carrying amount.
Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives using
the straight-line method and are subject to impairment if events or
circumstances indicate a possible inability to realize the carrying amount. The
initial recognition of goodwill and other intangible assets and subsequent
impairment analysis require management to make subjective assumptions regarding
the fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities. It is possible that
these judgments may change over time as market conditions or Company strategies
change, and these changes may cause the Company to record impairment charges to
adjust the goodwill to its estimated fair value.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income. Net income for the first quarter of 2004 was $1.2 million, up
from $654,000 reported in the same quarter of the previous year. First quarter
diluted earnings per share equaled $0.11, an 83% increase over diluted earnings
per share of $0.06 in the first quarter of 2003. The improvement in diluted
earnings per share primarily reflects an improvement in the net interest margin
as well as increases in non-interest income.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income is the principal source of
earnings for the Company and consists of interest income on loans and investment
securities less interest expense on deposits and borrowed funds. Net interest
income is a function of the Company's interest rate spread, which is the
difference between the average yield earned on the Company's interest-earning
assets and the average rate paid on its interest-bearing liabilities, and the
relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The
Company's interest rate spreads were 1.68% and 1.48% for the three months ended
March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The
15
Company's net interest margin (which is net interest income as a percentage of
average interest-earning assets) was 1.98% and 1.81% for the three months ended
March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
The Company's net interest income for the first quarter of 2004 was $7.3
million, up 8.1% from $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2003. The increase
in net interest income was primarily due to reduced rates paid on our
interest-bearing deposits, which more than offset the declines in yields on
interest-earning assets. The continuing low interest rate environment throughout
2003 and into 2004 has allowed the Company to further reduce deposit rates. The
Company expects its net interest income and net interest margin to continue to
improve in the second quarter of 2004 as loan volume increases and interest
expense declines due to the withdrawal or repricing to lower rates of $186.6
million in certificates of deposit which currently have a weighted average cost
of 2.33% and are scheduled to mature in the second quarter.
Interest Income. Total interest income decreased by $1.2 million from the
first quarter of 2003 to $17.4 million during the first quarter of 2004
primarily due to the lower average yields earned and the lower average balances
of interest-earning assets.
The Company's average yield on interest-earning assets decreased 27 basis
points during the first quarter of 2004 to 4.70% from 4.97% during the first
quarter of 2003. The decrease was mainly caused by the lower rate environment
during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the same period of 2003.
As a result of the lower rate environment, the average yields on loans
receivable decreased 79 basis points during the first quarter of 2004 from the
first quarter of 2003. The decrease in yields on loans receivable was partially
offset by an increase in average yields on the Company's securities portfolio to
3.25% from 2.89% for the first quarter of 2003. The increase in yields on the
securities portfolio was primarily caused by the lower yields earned during the
first quarter of 2003 as accelerated prepayments of mortgage loans underlying
mortgage-related securities caused the rate of premium amortization on these
securities to be accelerated over the scheduled amounts during the period.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense decreased by $1.7 million from
the first quarter of 2003 to $10.1 million for the first quarter of 2004. The
average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 2.0% and the average
cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 47 basis points. As mentioned
above, the low interest rate environment has allowed the Company to reduce its
funding costs on interest-bearing deposits. The Company also incurred less
interest expense on its fixed-rate FHLB debt as the average balance decreased
6.9% due to normal amortization for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 from the
same prior period 2003.
Provision for Losses on Loans. The Company's provision for losses on loans
increased to $739,000 for the first quarter of 2004 from $478,000 for the first
quarter of 2003. The increase was primarily a result of the Company increasing a
specific reserve for one non-performing commercial real estate loan secured by a
motel located South of Chicago, Illinois. As of March 31, 2004, the book value
of this loan was $4.5 million. In May 2004, the Company charged off $1.8
million, of which $1.4 million had previously been allocated in the allowance
for losses on loans, related to this loan and transferred it to real estate
owned at its net realizable value. Also during May 2004, the Company received a
$2.7 million offer to purchase the asset from an independent third-party for
cash. The Company has a signed contract for sale and anticipates closing to take
place during the second quarter of 2004.
16
The Company maintains the allowance for losses on loans at a level that
management believes will be adequate to cover inherent losses on existing loans
based on internal evaluations of collectibility, prior loss experience, value of
underlying collateral and other factors including the composition and
concentrations within the loan portfolio and the level and trends of classified
assets and non-performing assets. As of March 31, 2004, the allowance for losses
on loans to total loans receivable was 1.15%, up from 1.06% at December 31,
2003.
Non-interest income. Non-interest income was $2.9 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 2004, an increase of $663,000 over the first quarter of 2003.
This increase was mainly a result of increased fees on the Company's Overdraft
Protection Program of $193,000, a $321,000 gain on the sale of
available-for-sale securities, and a $150,000 increase in other income. The
Company continues to seek additional sources of non-interest income.
Non-interest expense. Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2004
was $8.3 million, an increase of $693,000 over the $7.6 million reported during
the first quarter of 2003. This increase was primarily due to compensation and
benefits increases related to the addition of six commercial loan officers and
seven credit administration and analyst professionals hired during the second
half of 2003 as the Company restructured its Commercial Loan Department.
Also contributing to the increase in non-interest expense for the quarter
ended March 31, 2004 was $16,000 of amortization expense for the core deposit
intangible that was recorded in September 2003 for acquisition of the Bank's
branch office in Bolingbrook, Illinois. There were no core deposit intangibles
recorded or amortized during the quarter ended March 31, 2003.
Other general and administrative expenses increased $144,000 in the first
quarter of 2004 compared to the first quarter of 2003. Expenses related to
improvements to the Company's electronic banking program contributed $40,000 to
this increase as the Company continued to upgrade its online banking and bill
pay functions. The new products, rolled out to customers in April 2004, provide
several enhancements to the Company's electronic delivery channels which allows
the customer to utilize a virtual website for almost all of their banking needs.
Also included in other general and administrative expense for the quarter ended
March 31, 2004 were estimated losses of $132,000 on the Company's investments in
various tax credit investment funds. In accordance with its tax strategy, the
Company participates in these partnerships to receive low-income housing
credits.
As of April 1, 2004, the majority of the Company's Recognition and
Retention Plan, a stock-based incentive plan established in February 1999, will
be 100% vested. As such, the Company expects to realize a monthly reduction of
approximately $100,000 pretax in compensation and benefit expenses related to
this plan for the remainder of 2004 compared to 2003.
Income Tax Expense. The Company's income tax benefit for the three months
ended March 31, 2004 was $21,000 or 1.7% of pre-tax income compared to income
tax expense of $313,000 or 32.4% of pre-tax income for the three months ended
March 31, 2003. The significant decrease in income tax expense resulted
primarily from the application of available tax credits and the effects of
permanent tax differences on the Company's pre-tax earnings.
17
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
General. During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company's total
assets decreased by $13.8 million to $1.56 billion from $1.57 billion at
December 31, 2003. The significant changes in the composition of the balance
sheet during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 included a decrease in cash and
cash equivalents of $14.7 million which was a result of a decrease of total
deposits of $16.5 million.
Securities. Amortized cost of the Company's securities and their fair

Total loans increased slightly during the first quarter of 2004 as loan
fundings were partially offset by refinancing and prepayment activity. The
Company estimates its pipeline at the end of the first quarter remains strong
with over $80.0 million of new loan originations for commercial and retail loans
expected to close during the second quarter of 2004.
Allowance for Losses on Loans. The Bank's policy is to establish
allowances for estimated losses on loans when it determines that losses are
expected to be incurred on such loans. The allowance for losses on loans is
maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb losses inherent
in the portfolio. Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is
based on an evaluation of the portfolio, past loss experience, current economic
conditions, volume, growth and composition of the portfolio, and other relevant
factors. The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses which are
charged against income.
At March 31, 2004, the Bank's allowance for losses on loans amounted to
$11.3 million or 48.14% and 1.15% of the Bank's non-performing loans and total
loans receivable, respectively. The Bank's provision for losses on loans
amounted to $739,000 and $478,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and
2003, respectively. Management of the Bank believes that, as of March 31, 2004,
the allowance for losses on loans was adequate.
The following is a summary of changes in the allowance for losses on loans
for the periods presented:

Management of the Bank determines the sufficiency of the allowance for
losses on loans based upon its periodic assessment of the risk elements in its
loan portfolio. Management of Citizens utilizes analytical data as well as
anticipated borrower performance in light of general economic conditions
existing in the Bank's market area.
The determination of the adequacy of the allowance at March 31, 2004
specifically considered various factors, including the balance of outstanding
loans and the increases in the ratio of commercial loans to total loans. These
loans were in excess of 60% of total loans receivable at March 31, 2004. Because
of the fact that commercial loans have historically resulted in more losses than
retail loans, the Bank's classified commercial loans are evaluated and allocated
separately from the general allocation of the entire portfolio.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets. During 2003, the Company recorded
approximately $1.2 million in goodwill and $325,000 in core deposit intangibles
in connection with the acquisition of a branch office in Bolingbrook, Illinois.
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, which requires that
goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives no longer be amortized
but be reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if certain
indicators arise. The Company will perform an annual impairment test of goodwill
each year. Impairment losses on recorded goodwill, if any, will be recorded as
operating expenses. These core deposit intangibles are being amortized over an
estimated useful life of five years.
20
Goodwill at March 31, 2004 was $1.2 million and core deposit intangibles
were $293,000. Amortization expense related to the branch acquisition is
expected to be recorded in the amount of $65,000 each year for five years.

========== ========== ========== ==========
Deposits were $958.9 million at March 31, 2004 compared to $975.4 million
at December 31, 2003. The decrease of $16.5 million was primarily the result of
a $31.1 million decrease in certificates of deposit accounts which was partially
offset by a $14.6 million increase in core deposits. Of the remaining
certificates of deposit accounts, approximately $186.6 million are expected to
withdraw or reprice at lower current market rates when these deposits mature in
the second quarter of 2004. The current weighted average rate on these deposits
is 2.33%.
Borrowed money consists of the following:

Advances totaling $400.0 million with final maturities in 2010 contain
call dates in 2004. Advances totaling $6.5 million with final maturities in 2008
contain call dates in 2004.
The advances can be prepaid subject to a substantial penalty which is
calculated based on the present value of the future cash flows at current
interest rates. At March 31, 2004, the Company estimated the prepayment penalty
at $61.9 million to pay off the aggregate advances. Should interest rates
increase, the Company expects the estimated prepayment penalty to decrease.

Capital Resources. Stockholders' equity was $158.5 million at March 31,
2004 compared to $156.0 million at December 31, 2003. The $2.6 million increase
includes:
- Net income of $1.2 million,
- Increases in unrealized appreciation on available-for-sale
securities of $1.3 million, and
- Exercises of stock options totaling $1.0 million.
Cash dividends declared of $1.2 million partially offset these increases.
During the first quarter of 2004, the Company repurchased 5,142 shares of
its common stock at an average price of $14.98 per share pursuant to the share
repurchase program announced in July 2002. Since its initial public offering,

LIQUIDITY AND COMMITMENTS
The Company's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a
product of operating, investing and financing activities. The Company's primary
historical sources of funds are:
- deposits,
- scheduled payments of amortizing loans and mortgage-related
securities,
- prepayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mortgage-related
securities,
- maturities of investment securities and other short-term
investments,
- funds provided from operations, and
- borrowings from the FHLB.
Scheduled payments from the amortization of loans, mortgage-related
securities, maturing investment securities, and short-term investments are
relatively predictable sources of funds, while deposit flows and loan
prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions
and competitive rate offerings. In addition, the Company invests excess funds in
federal funds sold and other short-term interest-earning assets which provide
liquidity to meet lending requirements. At March 31, 2004, the Company had cash
and cash equivalents of $163.5 million which was a decrease of $14.7 million
from December 31, 2003.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function. Excess
liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments such as
interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold. On a longer-term basis, the
Company invests funds not used for maintaining and expanding the loan portfolio
in securities. Given the current low interest rate environment, the Company is
investing these funds predominantly in relatively low yielding assets with
estimated average durations of two years or less with the expectation that the
funds will be readily
23
available for investment in higher yielding assets when the interest rate market
turns upward. The Company uses its sources of funds primarily to meet its
ongoing commitments, fund loan commitments, pay maturing certificates of deposit
and savings withdrawals, and maintain a securities portfolio. The Company
anticipates that it will continue to have sufficient funds to meet its current
commitments.
The liquidity needs of the parent company, CFS Bancorp, Inc., consist
primarily of operating expenses, dividend payments to stockholders and stock
repurchases. The primary sources of liquidity are securities available-for-sale
and dividends from the Bank. On a parent company-only basis, at March 31, 2004,
the Company had $7.5 million in securities available-for-sale. These sources of
liquidity can also be supplemented by fees assessed by the Company to the Bank.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS. The following table presents significant fixed
and determinable contractual obligations to third parties by payment date as of
March 31, 2004.

======== =========== =========== ========= =========
See the Deposits and Borrowed Money section for further discussion
surrounding the Company's FHLB advances. The Company's operating lease
obligations reflected above include the future minimum rental payments, by year,
required under the lease terms for premises and equipment. Many of these leases
contain renewal options, and certain leases provide options to purchase the
leased property during or at the expiration of the lease period at specific
prices.
The Company also has commitments to fund maturing certificates of deposit
which are scheduled to mature within one year or less. These deposits total
$397.2 million at March 31, 2004. Based on historical experience, management
believes that a significant portion of the maturing deposits will remain with
the Bank.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET OBLIGATIONS. The Company is a party to financial
instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet
the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments involve, to
varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in
the balance sheet. The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of
non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments
to extend credit and letters of credit is represented by the contractual
notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies
in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance
sheet instruments.

======== =========== =========== ========= =========
The above listed commitments do not necessarily represent future cash
requirements, in that these commitments often expire without being drawn upon.
Letters of credit include credit enhancements which are related to the
issuance by municipalities of taxable and nontaxable revenue bonds. The proceeds
from the sale of such bonds are loaned to for-profit and not-for-profit
companies for economic development projects. In order for the bonds to receive a
triple-A rating which provides for a lower interest rate, the FHLB-IN issues, in
favor of the bond trustee, an Irrevocable Direct Pay Letter of Credit for the
account of the Bank. Since the Bank, in accordance with the terms and conditions
of a Reimbursement Agreement between the FHLB-IN and the Bank, would be required
to reimburse the FHLB-IN for draws against the Letter of Credit, these
facilities are analyzed, appraised, secured by real estate mortgages, and
monitored as if the Bank funded the project initially.
The Company has not used, and has no intention of using, any significant
off-balance sheet financing arrangements for liquidity purposes. In addition,
the Company has not had, and has no intention to have, any significant
transactions, arrangements or other relationships with any unconsolidated,
limited purpose entities that could materially affect the Company's liquidity or
capital resources. The Company has not traded in and has no intention of trading
in derivatives or commodity contracts.
