RIVER VALLEY BANCORP

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

River Valley Bancorp (the “Corporation” or the “Company”) is a unitary savings and loan holding company whose activities are primarily limited to holding the stock of River Valley Financial Bank (“River Valley” or the “Bank”). The Bank conducts a general banking business in southeastern Indiana which consists of attracting deposits from the general public and applying those funds to the origination of loans for consumer, residential and commercial purposes. River Valley’s profitability is significantly dependent on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income generated from interest-earning assets (i.e. loans and investments) and the interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities (i.e. customer deposits and borrowed funds). Net interest income is affected by the relative amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest received or paid on these balances. The level of interest rates paid or received by the Bank can be significantly influenced by a number of competitive factors, such as governmental monetary policy, that are outside of management’s control.

NOTE 1:  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Corporation included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year. The consolidated condensed balance sheet of the Corporation as of December 31, 2006 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Corporation as of that date.

NOTE 2:  PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiary, the Bank. The Bank currently owns four subsidiaries. Madison First Service Corporation, which was incorporated under the laws of the State of Indiana on July 3, 1973, currently holds land and cash but does not otherwise engage in significant business activities. RVFB Investments, Inc., RVFB Holdings, Inc., and RVFB Portfolio, LLC were established in Nevada the latter part of 2005. They hold and manage a significant portion of the Bank’s investment portfolio. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3:   EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share have been computed based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding. Unearned Employee Stock Ownership Plan shares have been excluded from the computation of average common shares outstanding.

Diluted earnings per share
Income available to common shareholders and assumed conversions	$	558		1,647,506	$	.34		503		1,647,203	$	.31

Options to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock at $22.67 per share were outstanding at June 30, 2007, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option price was greater than the average market price of the common shares.

NOTE 4:  CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and Indiana jurisdictions.  With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local examinations by tax authorities for years before 2003.

The Company adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, on January 1, 2007.  FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company did not identify any uncertain tax positions that it believes should be recognized in the financial statements.

NOTE 5:  FUTURE ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.  This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy about the assumptions used to measure fair value and clarifies assumptions about risk and the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) finalized Issue No. 06−5, Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance - Determining the Amount That Could Be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85−4 (Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance).  This issue requires that a policyholder consider contractual terms of a life insurance policy in determining the amount that could be realized under the insurance contract.  It also requires that if the contract provides for a greater surrender value if all individual policies in a group are surrendered at the same time, that the surrender value be determined based on the assumption that policies will be surrendered on an individual basis.  Lastly, the issue discusses whether the cash surrender value should be discounted when the policyholder is contractually limited in its ability to surrender a policy.  This issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  Adoption of EITF No. 06-5 has not had a material impact on the financial condition of results of operations.

8

On February 15, 2007, the FASB issued its Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.  FAS 159 permits entities to elect to report most financial assets and liabilities at their fair value with changes in fair value included in net income.  The fair value option may be applied on an instrument-by-instrument or instrument class-by-class basis.  The option is not available for deposits withdrawable on demand, pension plan assets and obligations, leases, instruments classified as stockholders’ equity, investments in consolidated subsidiaries and variable interest entities and certain insurance policies. The new standard is effective at the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008, and early application may be elected in certain circumstances.  The Company expects to first apply the new standard at the beginning of its 2008 fiscal year.  The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have a material impact on financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE 6:  RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2006 consolidated condensed financial statements to conform to the June 30, 2007 presentation.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q") contains statements which constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements appear in a number of places in this Form 10-Q and include statements regarding the intent, belief, outlook, estimate or expectations of the Corporation (as defined in the notes to the consolidated condensed financial statements), its directors or its officers primarily with respect to future events and the future financial performance of the Corporation. Readers of this Form 10-Q are cautioned that any such those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. The accompanying information contained in this Form 10-Q identifies important factors that could cause such differences. These factors include changes in interest rates; loss of deposits and loan demand to other financial institutions; substantial changes in financial markets; changes in real estate values and the real estate market; or regulatory changes.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The notes to the consolidated financial statements contain a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies presented on pages 55 through 58 of the Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2006. Certain of these policies are important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of mortgage servicing rights.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is a significant estimate that can and does change based on management’s assumptions about specific borrowers and current general economic and business conditions, among other factors. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on at least a quarterly basis. The evaluation by management includes consideration of past loss experience, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, the current condition and amount of loans outstanding, identified problem loans and the probability of collecting all amounts due.

The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of probable losses inherent in the Corporation’s loan portfolios. In determining the appropriate amount of the allowance for loan losses, management makes numerous assumptions, estimates and assessments.

9

The Corporation’s strategy for credit risk management includes conservative, centralized credit policies, and uniform underwriting criteria for all loans as well as an overall credit limit for each customer significantly below legal lending limits. The strategy also emphasizes diversification on a geographic, industry and customer level, regular credit quality reviews and quarterly management reviews of large credit exposures and loans experiencing deterioration of credit quality.

The Corporation’s allowance consists of three components: probable losses estimated from individual reviews of specific loans, probable losses estimated from historical loss rates, and probable losses resulting from economic or other deterioration above and beyond what is reflected in the first two components of the allowance.

Larger commercial loans that exhibit probable or observed credit weaknesses are subject to individual review. Where appropriate, reserves are allocated to individual loans based on management’s estimate of the borrower’s ability to repay the loan given the availability of collateral, other sources of cash flow and legal options available to the Corporation. Included in the review of individual loans are those that are impaired as provided in SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan. Any allowances for impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or fair value of the underlying collateral. The Corporation evaluates the collectibility of both principal and interest when assessing the need for a loss accrual. Historical loss rates are applied to other commercial loans not subject to specific reserve allocations.

Homogenous loans, such as consumer installment and residential mortgage loans are not individually risk graded. Rather, standard credit scoring systems are used to assess credit risks. Reserves are established for each pool of loans based on the expected net charge-offs for one year. Loss rates are based on the average net charge-off history by loan category.

Historical loss rates for commercial and consumer loans may be adjusted for significant factors that, in management’s judgment, reflect the impact of any current conditions on loss recognition. Factors which management considers in the analysis include the effects of the national and local economies, trends in the nature and volume of loans (delinquencies, charge-offs and non-accrual loans), changes in mix, credit score migration comparisons, asset quality trends, risk management and loan administration, changes in the internal lending policies and credit standards, collection practices and examination results from bank regulatory agencies and the Corporation’s internal loan review.

An unallocated reserve is maintained to recognize the imprecision in estimating and measuring loss when evaluating reserves for individual loans or pools of loans. Allowances on individual loans and historical loss rates are reviewed quarterly and adjusted as necessary based on changing borrower and/or collateral conditions and actual collection and charge-off experience.

The Corporation’s primary market area for lending is Clark, Floyd and Jefferson counties in southeastern Indiana and portions of northeastern Kentucky. When evaluating the adequacy of allowance, consideration is given to this regional geographic concentration and the closely associated effect changing economic conditions have on the Corporation’s customers.

The Corporation has not substantively changed any aspect to its overall approach in the determination of the allowance for loan losses. There have been no material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques as compared to prior periods that impacted the determination of the current period allowance.

10

VALUATION OF MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS

The Company recognizes the rights to service mortgage loans as separate assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The total cost of loans when sold is allocated between loans and mortgage servicing rights based on the relative fair values of each. Mortgage servicing rights are subsequently carried at the lower of the initial carrying value, adjusted for amortization, or fair value. Mortgage servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based on the fair value of those rights. Factors included in the calculation of fair value of the mortgage servicing rights include, estimating the present value of future net cash flows, market loan prepayment speeds for similar loans, discount rates, servicing costs, and other economic factors. Servicing rights are amortized over the estimated period of net servicing revenue. It is likely that these economic factors will change over the life of the mortgage servicing rights, resulting in different valuations of the mortgage servicing rights. The differing valuations will affect the carrying value of the mortgage servicing rights on the consolidated balance sheet as well as the income recorded from loan servicing in the income statement. As of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, mortgage servicing rights had carrying values of $391,000 and $525,000, respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

At June 30, 2007, the Corporation’s consolidated assets totaled $336.7 million, a decrease of $5.5 million, or 1.6% from December 31, 2006. The decrease in assets resulted primarily from a $7.4 million decline in the investment portfolio offset in part by a $2.5 million increase in loans, including loans held for sale.  Deposits also declined by $5.9 million due in part to a decline in local municipality deposits.

The Corporation’s consolidated allowance for loan losses totaled $1.9 million and $2.2 million on June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, which represented .78% and .89% of total loans. Non-performing loans (defined as loans delinquent greater than 90 days and loans on non-accrual status) totaled $2,197,000 and $1,114,000 at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 respectively. The increase in non-performing loans from December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007 was primarily due to an increase in non-performing residential loans which are well collateralized.  Although management believes that its allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2007, was adequate based upon the available facts and circumstances, there can be no assurance that additions to such allowance will not be necessary in future periods, which could negatively affect the Corporation’s results of operations.

Deposits totaled $214.4 million at June 30, 2007, a decrease of $5.9 million, or 2.7%, compared to total deposits at December 31, 2006. This change was due primarily to decreases in the level of demand deposits held by local municipalities due to the late collection of tax revenues.

Borrowings remained steady at $95.2 million from December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007. Of total borrowings, $88.0 million represents FHLB Advances with average rates of 4.63% and 4.69% period to period.

Shareholders’ equity totaled $24.3 million at June 30, 2007, an increase of $130,000, or .54% from the $24.1 million reported at December 31, 2006. The increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily due to net income of $1.1 million offset by dividends of $649,000 and an increase in unrealized losses on securities available for sale of $316,000.

The Bank is required to maintain minimum regulatory capital pursuant to federal regulations. At June 30, 2007, the Bank’s regulatory capital exceeded all applicable regulatory capital requirements.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2007 AND 2006

GENERAL

The Corporation’s net income for the six months ended June 30, 2007, totaled $1,090,000, an increase of $184,000 or 20.4% from the $906,000 reported for the period ended June 30, 2006. The increase in income in the 2007 period was primarily attributable to increases in non-interest income.

11

NET INTEREST INCOME

Total interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 increased by $786,000, or 8.6%, to $10.0 million from the $9.2 million recorded for the same period in 2006.  The increase represents across the board increases, with increases in non-interest income exceeding the increases in non-interest expense.

Total interest expense for the same period nearly matched the increase in interest income with an increase of $795,000, or 15.2%, from $5.2 million at June 30, 2006 to $6.0 million at June 30, 2007.  Of this increase, $436,000 was attributable to interest expense on deposits and $358,000 to interest expense on borrowings.  These increases translate to a 13.3% increase in interest expense on deposits, to $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 18.4% increase on interest expense on borrowings, to $2.3 million at the same date.

Net Interest Income remained constant at $4.0 million for both June 30, 2007 and the same period of 2006, due primarily to the effective management of the interest margin.

PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS

A provision for losses on loans is charged to income to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered appropriate by management based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, the status of past due principal and interest payment, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to the Bank’s market area, and other factors related to the collectibility of the Bank’s loan portfolio. As a result of such analysis, management recorded a $96,000 provision for losses on loans for the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to $168,000 for the same period in 2006. The 2007 provision amount was predicated on the increase in the balance of the loan portfolio, coupled with the decrease in the level of delinquent loans year-to-year. While management believes that the allowance for losses on loans is adequate at June 30, 2007, based upon the available facts and circumstances, there can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance will be adequate to cover losses on non-performing assets in the future.

OTHER INCOME

Other income increased by $200,000, during the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the same period in 2006. This change was due to an increase in income from trust department operations of approximately $60,000, over the same period in 2006 due primarily to estate fees collected, increases in service charges and fees of $71,000 over the same period, and $37,000 in revenue from the Bank’s new wealth management division.

OTHER EXPENSE

Other expenses remained constant at $3.7 million, period to period, for June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006. Period to period increases in personnel costs and professional expenses were offset by decreases in other managed expenses such as data processing expenses and a reduction in the amortization expense for mortgage servicing rights.

INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes totaled $402,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, in line with the $404,000 for the same period in 2006.  The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was 26.9% as compared to 30.8% for the same period in 2006.  The decrease was primarily due to an increase in tax-exempt income from cash surrender value life insurance and municipal investments.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2007 AND 2006

GENERAL

The Corporation’s net income for the three months ended June 30, 2007, totaled $558,000, an increase of $55,000, or 10.9% from the $503,000 of net income reported in the comparable 2006 period. The increase represents across the board increases, with increases in non-interest income exceeding increases in non-interest expense.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Total interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 amounted to $5.0 million, a increase of $272,000, or 5.7%, from the comparable quarter in 2006, reflecting the effects of an increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding. Interest income on loans totaled $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $277,000, or 6.9%, from the comparable quarter in 2006.  The average yield on loans at June 30, 2007 was 7.05% compared to 6.79%, an increase of .26%, for the same date in 2006.

Interest expense on deposits experienced a modest modest increase of $92,000, or 5.2%, to a total of $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006.  Interest expense on borrowings totaled $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $191,000, or 19.8%, over the comparable quarter in 2006. The increase resulted from an increase in the average borrowings outstanding from year-to-year. The average cost of deposits at June 30, 2007 was 3.84% compared to 3.58% for the same date in 2006, a change of .26%, nearly exactly matching the changes in loan yields over the same period.

As a result of the foregoing offsetting changes in interest income and interest expense, net interest income remained constant at $2.0 million for both three month periods.

PROVISION FOR LOSSES ON LOANS

A provision for losses on loans is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered appropriate by management based upon historical experience, the volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, the status of past due principal and interest payments, general economic conditions, particularly as such conditions relate to the Bank’s market area, and other factors related to the collectibility of the Bank’s loan portfolio. As a result of such analysis, management recorded a $48,000 provision for losses on loan for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and $84,000 was recorded in the 2006 period. While management believes that the allowance for losses on loans is adequate at June 30, 2007, based upon the available facts and circumstances, there can be no assurance that the loan loss allowance will be adequate to cover losses on non-performing assets in the future.

OTHER INCOME

Other income increased by $104,000, or 16.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the same period in 2006, due to strong income in the trust and wealth management divisions and increased income from service charges and fees.

OTHER EXPENSE

Other expenses increased by $100,000, or 5.4%, during the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006. The increase was due to an increase in salaries/benefits due to the growth of the Bank, and professional fees incurred during the period.

13

INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes totaled $197,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $26,000, or 11.8%, as compared to the same period in 2006.   The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was 26.1% as compared to 30.7% for the same period in 2006.  The decrease was primarily due to an increase in tax-exempt income from cash surrender value life insurance and municipal investments.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

An important part of River Valley Financial Bank’s asset/liability management policy includes examining the interest rate sensitivity of the assets and liabilities and monitoring the expected effects of interest rate changes on its net portfolio value.

Presented below, as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, is an analysis performed by the OTS of River Valley’s interest rate risk as measured by changes in River Valley’s net portfolio value (“NPV”) for instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in the yield curve, in 100 basis point increments, up 300 basis points and down 200 basis points.

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

On April 27, 2007, Cecilia Means filed a putative class action complaint in the Marion County Superior Court, Marion County, Indiana, on behalf of herself and others who paid funds into a pre-need trust (the “Pre-Need Trust”) for burial services and merchandise from Grandview Memorial Gardens, against the Bank, a former trustee of the Pre-Need Trust; three other banks that serve or have served as trustees of the Pre-Need Trust; and the current and former owners of Grandview Memorial Gardens.  The complaint alleges that the Bank and other trustees did not properly account for funds placed in the Pre-Need Trust and did not properly verify the legitimacy of disbursements from the Pre-Need Trust in violation of certain state statutes and in breach of the trustees’ alleged fiduciary duties.  The complaint is not specific as to the amount of damages sought but states that the plaintiff believes that the Pre-Need Trust has an estimated $4 million in unfunded liabilities.
