See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 6 NEFFS BANCORP, INC. NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2005 (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Neffs Bancorp, Inc. (the "Corporation") and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Neffs National Bank (the "Bank"). All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 3l, 2005. These statements should be read in conjunction with notes to the financial statements contained in the 2004 Annual Report to Stockholders. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Neffs Bancorp, Inc. Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2004. NOTE 2. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Corporation is subject to certain routine legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. It is management's opinion that the ultimate resolution of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial position or results of operations. NOTE 3. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME The components of other comprehensive income and related tax effects for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 are as follows:

7 NOTE 4. EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share is based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during each year. The Corporation currently maintains a simple capital structure, thus there are no dilutive effects on earnings per share. NOTE 5. GUARANTEES The Corporation does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than its standby letters of credit. Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Generally, all letters of credit, when issued have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as those that are involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Corporation, generally, holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments. The Corporation has $392,000 of standby letters of credit as of June 30, 2005. Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of collateral and the enforcement of guarantees would be sufficient to cover the potential amount of future payment required under the corresponding guarantees. The current amount of the liability as of June 30, 2005 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not material. NOTE 6. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47, "Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations - an interpretation of SFAS No. 143," ("FIN 47"). This Interpretation provides clarification with respect to the timing of liability recognition for legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets when the timing and/or method of settlement of the obligation are conditional on a future event. FIN 47 is effective for all fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005 (December 31, 2005, for calendar-year companies). Retrospective application for interim financial information is permitted but is not required. Early adoption of this Interpretation is encouraged. We do not expect the adoption of FIN 47 to materially impact our consolidated financial statements. In May 2005, FASB issued SFAS 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections". The Statement requires retroactive application of a voluntary change in accounting principle to prior period financial statements unless it is impracticable. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 replaces APB Opinion 20, "Accounting Changes", and SFAS 3, "Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements". SFAS 154 will be effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Management currently believes that adoption of the provisions of SFAS 154 will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. 8 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations analyzes the major elements of the Corporation's balance sheets and statements of income. This section should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's financial statements and accompanying notes. Management of the Corporation has made forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements may be subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of the Corporation and its subsidiary. When words such as "believes," "expects," "anticipates" or similar expressions occur in this Form 10-Q, management is making forward-looking statements. Readers should note that many factors, some of which are discussed elsewhere in this report and in the documents that management incorporates by reference, could affect the future financial results of the Corporation and its subsidiary, both individually and collectively, and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q. These factors include the following: * operating, legal and regulatory risks; * economic, political and competitive forces affecting banking, securities, asset management and credit services businesses; and * the risk that management's analyses of these risks and forces could be incorrect and/or that the strategies developed to address them could be unsuccessful. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to publicly revise or update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this report. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in other documents that the Corporation files periodically with the Securities and Exchange Commission. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Disclosure of the Corporation's significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the financial statements of the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. Some of these policies are particularly sensitive, requiring significant judgments, estimates and assumptions to be made by management, most particularly in connection with determining the provision for loan losses and the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses. Additional information is contained in this Form 10-Q on page 11 9 under the paragraph titled "Provision for Loan Losses" and on page 14 under the paragraphs titled "Loan and Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses". OVERVIEW Net income for the second quarter of 2005 decreased .9% to $769,000 as compared to $776,000 for the second quarter of 2004 and total revenues increased 3.6% from $2.576 million to $2.670 million for the quarter. Net income per common share decreased 1.0% to $3.90 per share from $3.94 per share in the second quarter a year ago. At June 30, 2005, the Corporation had total assets of $212 million, total loans of $79.1 million, and total deposits of $172.9 million. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Average Balances and Average Interest Rates Interest earning assets averaged $204.3 million for the second quarter of 2005 as compared to $197.1 million for the same period in 2004. The yield on earning assets for the second quarter of 2005 remained constant at 5.1% over the same period last year. The growth in interest earning assets was mainly the result of an increase of $7 million in average total loans. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased from $155.9 million during the second quarter of 2004 to $157.2 million during the second quarter of 2005. Growth in average interest bearing liabilities was the result of an increase in time deposits of $8.1 million offset by decreases in demand deposits and savings deposits of $700,000 and $6.2 million, respectively. The decline in demand deposits and savings deposits was offset by growth in time deposits due to the favorable interest rate structure for this product. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was 2.8% for the second quarter of 2005 and 2.6% for the second quarter of 2004, an increase of 20 basis points. This was the result of the increasing interest rate environment that was experienced during much of 2004 and into 2005. Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on assets and interest expense incurred on liabilities used to fund those assets. Interest earning assets primarily include loans and securities and Federal Funds Sold. Liabilities used to fund such assets include deposits and borrowed funds. Changes in net interest income and margin result from the interaction between the volume and composition of earning assets, related yields and associated funding costs. Interest income increased by $89,000, or 3.5% over the second quarter of 2004. The increase in interest income is attributed to the slight rise in interest rates on the Bank's loan and securities portfolios and the increase in average earning assets. Interest expense for the second quarter of 2005 increased by $112,000, or 11.2%, compared to the second quarter of 10 2004. The increase was due to the increase in rates being offered and paid on interest bearing deposits, mainly certificates of deposits. Net interest income decreased by $23,000 or 1.5% over the second quarter of 2004. As marketplace rates started to increase on loans and securities, the Corporation slightly raised the rates being offered on interest bearing deposit accounts. Net income for the second quarter of 2005 was to some extent affected by those increasing rate adjustments. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, interest income increased by $202,000 or 4.1%, over the same period in 2004. The increase for the first six months was mostly related to the increasing interest rates being offered on loan products. Interest earning assets for the first six months of 2005 averaged $203.5 million versus $194.9 million for the comparable period in 2004. The yield on those assets remained constant at 5.1% for the first six months of 2005 as compared to the first six months of 2004. Interest expense for the first six months of 2005 increased $95,000 or 4.6% as compared to the fist six months of 2004. The level of average interest-bearing liabilities increased from $154.2 million for the first half of 2004 to $157.1 million for the first six months of 2005. The average rate paid for the first half of 2005 was 2.7%, this rate remained unchanged as compared to the first half of 2004. Net interest income for the first six months of 2005 increased by $107,000 or 3.7% over the same period in 2004. The company's net interest margin remained stable at 3.0% from the same period last year. Net interest margin represents the difference between interest income, including net loan fees earned, and interest expense, reflected as a percentage of average earning assets. Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2005 was 2.9%, which is slightly lower than the 3.1% recorded for the same period in 2004. During the second quarter of 2005, yields on earning assets stayed unchanged at 5.1%, yields on interest bearing deposits increased to 2.8%, as compared to 2.6%, for the second quarter of 2004. Provision for Loan Losses Based on historical and projected loss trends, no provision for loan losses was made for the second quarter of 2005. During the second quarter of 2004, the provision for loan losses was $15,000. For the second quarter of 2005, management concluded that the allowance for loan losses had an adequate balance to justify no provision for this quarter. For six months ending June 30, 2005, there was no provision for loan losses as compared to the $30,000 provision for the six months ending June 30, 2004. Based on historical and projected loss trends, management concluded that the allowance for loan loss had an adequate balance to justify no provision for the first six months of 2005. 11 Non-interest Income Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2005 increased by $5,000, or 7.7% from the same period in 2004. Non-interest income for the first six months of 2005 increased by $12,000 or 9.8% from the same period in 2004. The increase was attributable to increases in fee income derived from the sale of loan related insurance and ATM fees. Non-interest Expense For the second quarter of 2005, non-interest expenses increased by $7,000, or 1.1%, to $654,000, compared to $647,000 over the same period in 2004. This increase is primarily the result of an increase in salaries and employee benefits offset by a decrease in miscellaneous expenses. Salary expenses and employee benefits, which represent the largest component, 47.6%, of non-interest expenses, increased by $39,000, or 14.3%, for the second quarter of 2005. This increase is the result of increases in health insurance costs and the hiring of additional personnel to meet the demands of business growth. Occupancy expense for the second quarter of 2005 increased by $4,000 or 10.8% as compared to the second quarter of 2004. This increase is mostly the result of repairs and maintenance made to the main building. Furniture and equipment expenses for the second quarter of 2005 increased by $11,000 or 28.2% as compared to the second quarter of 2004. This increase is due to increased depreciation expense on equipment additions. Other expenses decreased by $56,000 or 25.7% throughout the second quarter of 2005 as compared to the second quarter of 2004. This decrease is mostly related to a $50,000 donation made to Northern Lehigh School District Educational Foundation during the second quarter of 2004. The bank received a 90% or $45,000 state tax credit to offset this donation. A similar donation was made in the first quarter of 2005. For the first six months of 2005, non-interest expense increased by $30,000 or 2.5% over the same period in 2004. Salary expenses and employee benefits, which represents the largest component, 50.5%, of non-interest expenses, increased by $73,000 or 13.3%, over the first six months of 2004. The increase was due to normal salary adjustments, hiring of additional staff, and increases in health insurance premiums. Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses for the first six months of 2005 increased by $23,000 or 15.7% as compared to the first six month of 2005. This increase was mostly the result of increased depreciation expense on equipment additions and repairs and maintenance performed on the main building. 12 Net other expenses decreased by $36,000 or 10.4% for the first six months ended June 30, 2005 over the first half of 2004. This decreases in net other expenses is due to decreases in various categories. One key measure used to monitor progress in controlling overhead expenses is the ratio of net non-interest expense to average assets. Net non-interest expenses equal noninterest expenses (excluding foreclosed real estate expenses) less non-interest income (exclusive of nonrecurring gains), divided by average assets. This annualized ratio was 1.11% for the three months ended June 30, 2005, slightly lower than 1.13% for the three months ended June 30, 2004. It was 1.06% for the first six months of 2005, which remained unchanged from the same period one year ago. Another productivity measure is the operating efficiency ratio. This ratio expresses the relationship of non-interest expenses (excluding foreclosed real estate expenses) to net interest income plus noninterest income (excluding nonrecurring gains). For the quarter ended June 30, 2005, the operating efficiency ratio was 41.9%, which remained constant from the same period in 2004. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, this ratio was 39.1% compared to 39.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Provision for Federal Income Taxes The provision for federal income taxes was $139,000 for the second quarter of 2005, as compared to $142,000 for the same period in 2004. For six months ended June 30, the provision was $317,000 and $265,000 for 2005 and 2004, respectively. The effective tax rate, which is the ratio of income tax expense to income before income taxes, was 15.3% for the second quarter of 2005 and 15.5% for the second quarter of 2004. The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2005 and 2004 were 16.5% and 14.7%, respectively. The effective tax rate is lower than the statutory rate of 34% due to tax-exempt interest income on securities and loans. Net Income Net income for the second quarter of 2005 was $769,000, a decrease of $7,000 or ..9% over the $776,000 recorded in the second quarter of 2004. Net income for the first six months of 2005 increased by $67,000 or 4.4% as compared to June 30, 2004. This was mainly due to a favorable interest rate climate and growth in higher yielding securities. Return on Average Assets Return on average assets (ROA) measures the Corporation's net income in relation to its total average assets. The Corporation's annualized ROA for the second quarter of 2005 remained constant 1.5% as compared to the second quarter of 2004. The ROA for the first six months of 2005 also remained constant at 1.5% as compared to the same period in 2004. 13 Return on Average Equity Return on average equity (ROE) indicates how effectively the Corporation can generate net income on the capital invested by its stockholders. ROE is calculated by dividing net income by average stockholders' equity. For purposes of calculating ROE, average stockholders' equity includes the effect of unrealized gains or losses, net of income taxes, on securities available for sale. The annualized ROE for the second quarter of 2005 was 8.1% as compared to 8.7% for the second quarter of 2004. The ROE for the first six months of 2005 was 8.6% as compared to 8.6% for the same period of 2004. FINANCIAL CONDITION Securities During the first six months of 2005 securities available for sale remained relatively unchanged at $44.1 million as compared to December 31, 2004. Securities held to maturity decreased slightly from $79.3 million to $78.6 million Federal funds sold increased by $1.1 million from $1.8 million to $2.9 million during the first six months of 2005 from December 31, 2004. Total securities and federal funds sold aggregated $125.6 million at June 30, 2005, and represented 59.2% of total assets. The average yield on the combined securities portfolio for the first six months of 2005 was 5.1% as compared to 4.4% for the similar period of 2004. For the second quarter of 2005, the average yield on the combined securities portfolio was 5.1% as compared to 4.3% for the same period in 2004. The weighted average life of the combined securities portfolio was approximately 9 years at June 30, 2005 with a weighted yield of 5.2% as compared to 4.3% for the same period in 2004. Net Loans Receivable During the first six months of 2005 net loans receivable increased by $2.1 million or 2.8% from $76.3 million at December 31, 2004, to $78.4 million on June 30, 2005. Loans receivable represented 45.8% of total deposits and 37.3% of total assets at June 30, 2005, as compared to 44.9% and 36.7%, respectively, at December 31, 2004. Loan and Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses There were no non-performing assets (non-performing loans and foreclosed real estate, excluding loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest) at June 30,2005. There was no foreclosed real estate held by the Corporation as of June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. 14 The following summary table presents information regarding non-performing loans and assets as of June 30, 2005 and December 3l, 2004.

Interest Rate Sensitivity The management of interest rate sensitivity seeks to avoid fluctuating net interest margins and to provide consistent net interest income through periods of changing interest rates. The Corporation's risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments, or market risk, is composed primarily of interest rate risk. The primary objective of the Corporation's asset/liability management activities is to maximize net interest income while maintaining acceptable levels of interest rate risk. The Bank's Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) is responsible for establishing policies to limit exposure to interest rate risk, and to ensure procedures are established to monitor compliance with those policies. The Corporation's Board of Directors approves the guidelines established by ALCO. An interest rate sensitive asset or liability is one that, within a defined period, either matures or experiences an interest rate change in line with general market interest rates. Historically, the most common method of estimating interest rate risk was to measure the maturity and repricing relationships between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities at specific points in time (GAP), typically one year. Under this method, a company is considered liability sensitive when the amount of its interest-bearing liabilities exceeds the amount of its interest-earning assets within the one-year horizon. However, assets and liabilities with similar repricing characteristics may not reprice at the same time or to the 16 same degree. As a result, the Corporation's GAP does not necessarily predict the impact of changes in general levels of interest rates on net interest income. Management believes the simulation of net interest income in different interest rate environments provides a more meaningful measure of interest rate risk. Income simulation analysis captures not only the potential of all assets and liabilities to mature or reprice, but also the probability that they will do so. Income simulation also attends to the relative interest rate sensitivities of these items, and projects their behavior over an extended period of time. Finally, income simulation permits management to assess the probable effects on the balance sheet not only of changes in interest rates, but also of proposed strategies for responding to them. The Corporation's income simulation model analyzes interest rate sensitivity by projecting net interest income over the next 12 months in a flat rate scenario versus net income in alternative interest rate scenarios. Management continually reviews and refines its interest rate risk management process in response to the changing economic climate. Currently, the Corporation's model projects a proportionate 200 basis point change during the next year. The Corporation's ALCO policy has established that income sensitivity will be considered acceptable if overall net income volatility in a plus or minus 200 basis point scenario is within 5% of net interest income in a flat rate scenario. At June 30, 2005, the Corporation's simulation model indicates net interest income would increase 2.5% within the first year if rates increased as described above. The model projects that net interest income would decrease by 4.6% in the first year if rates decreased as described above. All of these forecasts are within an acceptable level of interest rate risk per the policies established by ALCO. Liquidity Liquidity management involves the ability to generate cash or otherwise obtain funds at reasonable rates to support asset growth and reduce assets to meet deposit withdrawals, to maintain reserve requirements, and to otherwise operate the Corporation on an ongoing basis. Liquidity needs are generally met by converting assets into cash or obtaining sources of additional funds, mainly deposits. Primarily cash and federal funds sold, and the cash flow from the amortizing securities and loan portfolios provide liquidity sources from asset categories. The primary source of liquidity from liability categories is the generation of additional core deposit balances. Additionally, the Corporation has established secondary sources of liquidity consisting of federal funds lines of credit and borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank, which can be drawn upon if needed. In view of the primary and secondary sources as previously mentioned, management believes that the Corporation is capable of meeting its anticipated liquidity needs. 17 Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements The Corporation's financial statements do not reflect off-balance sheet arrangements that are made in the normal course of business. Those off-balance sheet arrangements consist of unfunded loans and letters of credit made under the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments. These commitments, at June 30, 2005 totaled $8.127 million. This consisted of $1.970 million in tax-exempt loans, commercial real estate, construction, and land development loans, $3.664 million in home equity lines of credit, $392,000 in standby letters of credit and the remainder in other unused commitments. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because many of them will expire without being drawn upon, they do not generally present any significant liquidity risk to the Corporation. Management believes that any amounts actually drawn upon can be funded in the normal course of operations. The Corporation has no investment in or financial relationship with any unconsolidated entities that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on liquidity or the availability of capital resources. Capital Adequacy At June 30, 2005, stockholders' equity totaled $38.6 million, up 3.3% over stockholders' equity of $37.3 million at December 31, 2004. The increase in stockholders' equity for the six months ended June 30, 2005 included a $27,000 unrealized gain, net of income taxes, on securities available for sale. Excluding this unrealized gain, gross stockholders' equity changed by an increase of $1,213,000 in retained net income. Risk-based capital provides the basis for which all banks are evaluated in terms of capital adequacy. The risk-based capital standards require all banks to have Tier 1 capital of at least 4% and total capital, including Tier 1 capital, of at least 8% of risk-adjusted assets. Tier 1 capital includes common stockholders' equity together with related surpluses and retained earnings. Total capital may be comprised of total Tier 1 capital plus qualifying debt instruments, and the allowance for loan losses. 18 The following table provides a comparison of the Corporation's risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratios to the minimum regulatory requirements for the periods indicated:
For Capital June 30, December 31, Adequacy 2005 2004 Purposes ---------------------------------------- Risk-Based Capital Ratios: Tier 1 Capital 40.92% 40.4% 4.00% Total Capital 41.62% 41.2% 8.00% Leveraged Capital 18.45% 18.0% 4.00%
The Bank's capital ratios are not materially different from that of the Corporation. At June 30, 2005, the capital levels of the Bank met the definition of a "well capitalized" institution. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Corporation's exposure to market risk has not changed significantly since December 31, 2004. The market risk principally includes interest rate risk, which is discussed in the Management's Discussion and Analysis above. ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures The Corporation maintains controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Corporation files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based upon their evaluation of those controls and procedures as of June 30, 2005, the chief executive officer and principal financial officer of the Corporation concluded that the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures were adequate. The Corporation made no changes in its internal controls or in other factors that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect these controls during the quarter ended June 30, 2005, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. 19 PART II.
