(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are
prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for
complete financial statements.  All adjustments are of a normal and
recurring nature and, in the opinion of management, the statements
include all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Operating results for the nine months ended June 30, 2004, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
fiscal year ending September 30, 2004.  The consolidated balance sheet
of the Company as of September 30, 2003, has been derived from the
audited balance sheet of the Company as of that date.

     In preparing the financial statements, management is required to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues
and expenses for the period.  Material estimates that are particularly
susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the
determination of the allowances for losses on loans, real estate owned,
and valuation of mortgage servicing rights.  Management believes that
these allowances are adequate, however, future additions to the
allowances may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions.

     The Company's critical accounting policies involving the more
significant judgements and assumptions used in the preparation of the
consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2004, have remained
unchanged from September 30, 2003.  These policies relate to provision
for loan losses and mortgage servicing rights.  Disclosure of these
critical accounting policies is incorporated by reference under Item 8
"Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the Company's year ended September 30, 2003.

     Certain quarterly amounts for previous periods have been
reclassified to conform to the current quarter's presentation.

(10) SEGMENT INFORMATION

     In accordance with SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information," the Company has identified three
principal operating segments for purposes of financial reporting:
Banking, Local Mortgage Banking, and National Mortgage Banking.  These
segments were determined based on the Company's internal financial
accounting and reporting processes and are consistent with the
information that is used to make operating decisions and to assess the
Company's performance by the Company's key decision makers.

     The National Mortgage Banking segment originates mortgage loans for
sale to investors.  The Local Mortgage Banking segment originates
mortgage loans for sale to investors and for the portfolio of the
Banking segment.  The Banking segment provides a full range of banking
services through the Bank's branch network, exclusive of mortgage loan
originations.  A portion of the income presented in the Mortgage Banking
segment is derived from sales of loans to the Banking segment based on a
transfer pricing methodology that is designed to approximate economic
reality.  The Other and Eliminations segment includes financial
information from the parent company plus inter-segment eliminations.

     The following table presents financial information from the
Company's operating segments for the periods indicated.  Dollar amounts

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.


GENERAL

     The principal business of the Company is to provide banking
services through the Bank.  Specifically, the Bank obtains savings and
checking deposits from the public, then uses those funds to originate
and purchase real estate loans and other loans. The Bank also purchases
mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") and other investment securities
from time to time as conditions warrant.  In addition to customer
deposits, the Bank obtains funds from the sale of loans held-for-sale,
the sale of securities available-for-sale, repayments of existing
mortgage assets, and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank
("FHLB").  The Bank's primary sources of income are interest on loans,
MBS, and investment securities plus customer service fees and income
from mortgage banking activities.  Expenses consist primarily of
interest payments on customer deposits and other borrowings and general
and administrative costs.

     The Bank is regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS")
and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), and is subject
to periodic examination by both entities.  The Bank is also subject to
the regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
("FRB"), which establishes rules regarding reserves that must be
maintained against customer deposits.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

ASSETS
     The Company's total assets as of June 30, 2004, were $1,345.8
million, an increase of $238.5 million from September 30, 2003, the
prior fiscal year end.  $193.0 million of this increase was due to the
purchase of mortgage-backed securities which were financed primarily
with repurchase agreements.

     As the Bank originates mortgage loans each month, management
evaluates the existing market conditions to determine which loans will
be held in the Bank's portfolio and which loans will be sold in the
secondary market.  Loans sold in the secondary market can be sold with
servicing released or converted into MBS and sold with the loan
servicing retained by the Bank.  At the time of each loan commitment, a
decision is made to either hold the loan for investment, hold it for
sale with servicing retained, or hold it for sale with servicing
released.  Management monitors market conditions to decide whether loans
should be held in portfolio or sold and if sold, which method of sale is
appropriate.  During the nine months ended June 30, 2004, the Bank
originated and purchased $696.7 million in mortgage loans held for sale,
$384.1 million in mortgage loans held for investment, and $5.5 million
in other loans.  This total of $1,086.3 million in loans originated
compares to $1,024.6 million in loans originated during the nine months
ended June 30, 2003.

     Included in the $233.7 million in loans held for sale as of June
30, 2004, are $77.2 million in mortgage loans held for sale with
servicing released.  All loans held for sale are carried at the lower of
cost or fair value.

     The Bank classifies problem assets as "substandard," "doubtful"
or "loss."  Substandard assets have one or more defined weaknesses,
and it is possible that the Bank will sustain some loss unless the
deficiencies are corrected.  Doubtful assets have the same defects as
substandard assets plus other weaknesses that make collection or full
liquidation improbable.  Assets classified as loss are considered
uncollectible and of such little value that a specific loss allowance is
warranted.

     The following table summarizes the Bank's classified assets as
reported to the OTS, plus any classified assets of the holding company.

     Management records a provision for loan losses in amounts
sufficient to cover current net charge-offs and an estimate of probable
losses based on an analysis of risks that management believes to be
inherent in the loan portfolio.  The Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
("ALLL") recognizes the inherent risks associated with lending
activities but, unlike specific allowances, have not been allocated to
particular problem assets but to a homogenous pool of loans.  Management
believes that the specific loss allowances and ALLL are adequate.  While
management uses available information to determine these allowances,
future allowances may be necessary because of changes in economic
conditions.  Also, regulatory agencies (OTS and FDIC) review the Bank's
allowance for losses as part of their examinations, and they may require
the Bank to recognize additional loss provisions based on the
information available at the time of their examinations.

     The following table sets forth the activity in the allowance for
loan losses for the nine months ending June 30, 2004, and 2003.  Dollar
amounts are expressed in thousands.

LIABILITIES AND EQUITY
     Customer and brokered deposit accounts increased $53.8 million
during the nine months ended June 30, 2004.  This increase was due
primarily to the purchase of  $60.1 million in brokered deposit accounts
during the quarter ended June 30, 2004.  The weighted average rate on
customer and brokered deposits as of June 30, 2004, was 1.90%, a
decrease from 2.27% as of June 30, 2003.

     Advances from the FHLB were $319.6 million as of June 30, 2004, an
increase of $11.5 million from September 30, 2003.  During the nine-
month period, the Bank borrowed $361.9 million of new advances and
repaid $350.2 million.  Management uses FHLB advances at various times
as an alternate funding source to provide operating liquidity and to
fund the origination and purchase of mortgage loans.

     During the nine months ended June 30, 2004, the Bank financed the
purchase of mortgage-backed securities primarily with repurchase
agreements.  A total of $194.4 million of mortgage-backed securities
were sold under agreements to repurchase, and repurchase agreements of
$22.2 million were repaid.

                                  12



     Escrows were $6.0 million as of June 30, 2004, a decrease of $2.3
million from September 30, 2003.  This decrease is due to amounts paid
for borrowers' taxes during the fourth calendar quarter of 2003.

     Total stockholders' equity as of June 30, 2004, was $133.5 million
(9.9% of total assets).  This compares to $127.4 million (11.5% of total
assets) at September 30, 2003.  On a per share basis, stockholders'
equity was $15.79 on June 30, 2004, compared to $15.09 on September 30,
2003.

     The Company paid cash dividends on its common stock of $0.85 on
November 28, 2003, and $0.20 on February 27, 2004, and May 28, 2004.
Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2004, the Company announced a
cash dividend of $0.20 per share to be paid on August 27, 2004, to
stockholders of record as of August 6, 2004.

     Total stockholders' equity as of June 30, 2004, includes an
unrealized loss of $2.2 million, net of deferred income taxes, on
available for sale securities.  This amount is reflected in the line
item "Accumulated other comprehensive income."


RATIOS
     The following table illustrates the Company's return on assets
(annualized net income divided by average total assets); return on
equity (annualized net income divided by average total equity); equity-
to-assets ratio (ending total equity divided by ending total assets);
and dividend payout ratio (dividends paid divided by net income).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Comparison of three months and nine months ended
June 30, 2004 and 2003.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2004, the Company had net
income of $6,012,000 or $0.71 per share.  This compares to net income of
$6,791,000 or $0.81 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2003.

     For the nine months ended June 30, 2004, the Company had net income
of $18,851,000 or $2.23 per share.  This compares to net income of
$17,725,000 or $2.10 per share for the nine months ended June 30, 2003.


NET INTEREST MARGIN
       The Company's net interest margin is comprised of the difference
("spread") between interest income on loans, MBS and investments and
the interest cost of customer deposits and other borrowings.  Management
monitors net interest spreads and, although constrained by certain
market, economic, and competition factors, it establishes loan rates and
customer deposit rates that maximize net interest margin.

     The following table presents the total dollar amounts of interest
income and expense on the indicated amounts of average interest-earning
assets or interest-costing liabilities for the nine months ended June
30, 2004 and 2003.  Average yields reflect reductions due to non-accrual
loans.  Once a loan becomes 90 days delinquent, any interest that has
accrued up to that time is reserved and no further interest income is
recognized unless the loan is paid current.  Average balances and
weighted average yields for the periods include all accrual and non-
accrual loans.  The table also presents the interest-earning assets and
yields for each respective period.  Dollar amounts are expressed in
thousands.

     Net interest margin before loan loss provision for the three months
ended June 30, 2004, increased $868,000 from the same period in the
prior year.  This resulted from a decrease in total interest expense due
primarily to a decrease in the interest rate paid on interest-costing
liabilities.

     Net interest margin before loan loss provision for the nine months
ended June 30, 2004, increased $3.6 million from the same period in the
prior year.  Specifically, total interest expense decreased $4.0 million
due to a 95 basis point decrease in the interest rate paid on interest-
costing liabilities.  Total interest income decreased $443,000 from the
same period in the prior year.  This decrease resulted from a 116 basis
point decrease in the average rate earned on interest-earning assets,
largely offset by a $192.4 million increase in the average balance of
interest-earning assets.


PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
     The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $265,000 during
the quarter ended June 30, 2004, due to an increase in commercial real
estate loans classified as "substandard."  Management performs an
ongoing analysis of individual loans and of homogenous pools of loans to
assess for any impairment.  On a consolidated basis, loan loss reserve
was 47.6% of total classified assets at June 30, 2004, 51.2% at
September 30, 2003, and 52.2% at June 30, 2003.

     As stated above, management believes that the provisions for loan
losses is adequate.  The provision can fluctuate based on changes in
economic conditions or changes in the information available to
management.  Also, regulatory agencies review the Company's allowances
for losses as a part of their examination process and they may require
changes in loss provision amounts based on information available at the
time of their examination.

OTHER INCOME
     Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2004, increased
$1.0 million from the same period in the prior year.  Gain on sale of
loans held for sale increased $1.3 million due to an increase in
mortgage banking volume.  Loan servicing fees increased $670,000 due
primarily to a decrease in the amortization of capitalized servicing.
This resulted from decreases in actual prepayments and estimated future
prepayments of the underlying mortgage loans during the quarter.
Customer service fees and charges increased $647,000 due primarily to
fee income earned by the Company's national mortgage banking operation.
These increases were offset by a decrease in other income of $1.5
million due primarily to the effect of recording the net fair value of
certain loan-related commitments in accordance with FASB Statement No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."

     Other income for the nine months ended June 30, 2004, increased
$4.7 million from the same period in the prior year. Provision for
losses on real estate owned decreased $2.1 million due primarily to a
reserve recorded in the prior year on a hotel property in the Southeast
area of Kansas City, Missouri.  This property was sold in April 2003.
Loan servicing fees increased $1.7 million due to a decrease in the
amortization of capitalized servicing.  This resulted from decreases in
actual prepayments and estimated future prepayments of the underlying
mortgage loans during the nine-month period. Customer service fees and
charges increased $1.1 million due primarily to fee income earned by the
Company's national mortgage banking operation.  Gain on sale of
securities available for sale increased $477,000 due to the sale of
corporate debt securities and the sale of an asset-backed security which
the Company had previously deemed impaired.  Other income decreased
$232,000 due primarily to the effect of recording the net fair value of
certain loan-related commitments in accordance with FASB Statement No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,"
which was largely offset by an increase in mortgage loan prepayment
penalties and a decrease in expenses on foreclosed assets held for sale.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
     Total general and administrative expenses for the three months
ended June 30, 2004, increased $3.4 million from the same period in the
prior year.  Specifically, compensation, fringe benefits, and
commission-based mortgage banking compensation  increased $2.0 million
due primarily to the addition of the national mortgage banking
operation.  Advertising increased $693,000, and other expenses increased
$570,000 due primarily due to an increase in data processing and other
charges related to the addition of the national mortgage banking
operation.

                                  15


     Total general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
June 30, 2004, increased $7.2 million from the same period in the prior
year. Specifically, compensation, fringe benefits, and commission-based
mortgage banking compensation increased $4.4 million due primarily to
the addition of the national mortgage banking operation.  The number of
full time equivalent employees increased from 325 at June 30, 2003, to
421 at June 30, 2004.  Advertising increased $1.2 million, and other
expenses increased $1.2 million due primarily to an increase in data
processing and other charges related to the addition of the national
mortgage banking operation.


REGULATION

     The Bank is a member of the FHLB System and its customers' deposits
are insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") of the
FDIC.  The Bank is subject to regulation by the OTS as its chartering
authority.  Since passage of the Financial Institutions Reform,
Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 ("FIRREA" or the "Act"), the
FDIC also has regulatory control over the Bank.  The transactions of
SAIF-insured institutions are limited by statute and regulations that
may require prior supervisory approval in certain instances.
Institutions also must file reports with regulatory agencies regarding
their activities and their financial condition.  The OTS and FDIC make
periodic examinations of the Bank to test compliance with the various
regulatory requirements.  The OTS can require an institution to re-value
its assets based on appraisals and to establish specific valuation
allowances.  This supervision and regulation is intended primarily for
the protection of depositors.  Also, savings institutions are subject to
certain reserve requirements under Federal Reserve Board regulations.


INSURANCE OF ACCOUNTS
     The SAIF insures the Bank's customer deposit accounts to a maximum
of $100,000 for each insured member.  Deposit insurance premiums are
determined using a Risk-Related Premium Schedule ("RRPS"), a matrix
which places each insured institution into one of three capital groups
and one of three supervisory groups.  Currently, deposit insurance
premiums range from 0 to 27 basis points of the institution's total
deposit accounts, depending on the institution's risk classification.
The Bank is currently considered "well capitalized", which is the most
favorable capital group and supervisory subgroup.  SAIF-insured
institutions are also assessed a premium to service the interest on
Financing Corporation ("FICO") debt.

REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
     At June 30, 2004, the Bank exceeds all capital requirements
prescribed by the OTS.  To calculate these requirements, a thrift must
deduct any investments in and loans to subsidiaries that are engaged in
activities not permissible for a national bank.  As of June 30, 2004,
the Bank did not have any investments in or loans to subsidiaries
engaged in activities not permissible for national banks.

     The following tables summarize the relationship between the Bank's
capital and regulatory requirements.  Dollar amounts are expressed in
thousands.

LOANS TO ONE BORROWER
     Institutions are prohibited from lending to any one borrower in
excess of 15% of the Bank's unimpaired capital plus unimpaired surplus,
or 25% of unimpaired capital plus unimpaired surplus if the loan is
secured by certain readily marketable collateral.  Renewals that exceed
the loans-to-one-borrower limit are permitted if the original borrower
remains liable and no additional funds are disbursed.  Additionally,
certain exceptions are permitted with prior approval from the OTS which
limit institutions from lending to any one borrower in excess of  the
lesser of 30% of the Bank's unimpaired capital or $30 million.  As of
June 30, 2004, the Bank has obtained one such exception to the loans to
one borrower limit from the OTS.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Liquidity measures the ability to meet deposit withdrawals and
lending commitments.  The Bank generates liquidity primarily from the
sale and repayment of loans, retention or newly acquired retail
deposits, and advances from FHLB of Des Moines' credit facility.
Management continues to use FHLB advances as a primary source of short-
term funding.  At June 30, 2004, there was $110.3 million available to
the Bank in the form of FHLB advances.  The Bank has established
relationships with various brokers, and, as a secondary source of
liquidity, the Bank purchases brokered deposit accounts.  At June 30,
2004, the Bank has $60.1 million in brokered deposits, and it could
purchase up to $200.5 million in additional brokered deposits and remain
"well capitalized" as defined by the OTS.

     Fluctuations in the level of interest rates typically impact
prepayments on mortgage loans and MBS.  During periods of falling
interest rates, these prepayments increase and a greater demand exists
for new loans.  The Bank's customer deposits are partially impacted by
area competition.  Management believes that the Bank will retain most of
its maturing time deposits in the foreseeable future.  However, any
material funding needs that may arise in the future can be reasonably
satisfied through the use of additional FHLB advances and/or brokered
deposits.   Management is not aware of any other current market or
economic conditions that could materially impact the Bank's future
ability to meet obligations as they come due.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     For a complete discussion of the Company's asset and liability
management policies, as well as the potential impact of interest rate
changes upon the market value of the Company's portfolio, see the
"Asset/Liability Management" section of the  Company's Annual Report
for the year ended September 30, 2003.

     Management recognizes that there are certain market risk factors
present in the structure of the Bank's financial assets and liabilities.
Since the Bank does not have material amounts of derivative securities,
equity securities, or foreign currency positions, interest rate risk
("IRR") is the primary market risk that is inherent in the Bank's
portfolio.  On a quarterly basis, the Bank monitors the estimate of
changes that would potentially occur to its net portfolio value
("NPV") of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet items assuming a
sudden change in market interest rates.  Management presents a NPV
analysis to the Board of Directors each quarter and NPV policy limits
are reviewed and approved.  There have been no material changes in the
market risk information provided in the Annual Report for the year ended
September 30, 2003.

                                  17




Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

     An evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures
was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the
Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO")
within the 90-day period preceding the filing date of this quarterly
report.  Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that
the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in
ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in
the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i)
accumulated and communicated to management in a timely manner, and (ii)
recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods
specified by the SEC.  Since the date of this evaluation, there have not
been any significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect those controls.
