LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------
1. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lincoln Park
Bancorp (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Lincoln Park Savings
Bank (the "Bank"). The Company's business is conducted principally through the
Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in
accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and regulation S-X and do not
include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of
financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have
been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31,
2005, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for
the entire fiscal year.
3. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net income per common share is based on the weighted average number of
common shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income per share is calculated
by adjusting the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
to include the effect of contracts or securities exercisable or which could be
converted into common stock, if dilutive, using the treasury stock method.
4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We consider accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions
by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value
of certain assets or on income to be critical accounting policies. Material
estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes relate to the
determination of the allowance for loan losses. Determining the amount of the
allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment.
Management reviews the level of the allowance on a quarterly basis, at a
minimum, and establishes the provision for loan losses based on the composition
of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, loss experience, economic conditions,
and other factors related to the collectibility of the loan portfolio. Since
there has been no material shift in loan portfolio, the level of the allowance
for loan losses has changed primarily due to changes in the size of the loan
portfolio and the level of nonperforming loans. We have allocated the allowance
among categories of loan types as well as classification status at each
period-end date. Assumptions and allocation percentages based on loan types and
classification status have been consistently applied. Management regularly
evaluates various risk factors related to the loan portfolio, such as type of
loan, underlying collateral and payment status, and the corresponding allowance
allocation percentages.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------
4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)
Although we believe that we use the best information available to
establish the allowance for loan losses, future additions to the allowance may
be necessary based on estimates that are susceptible to change as a result of
changes in economic conditions and other factors. In addition, the regulatory
authorities, as an integral part of their examinations process, periodically
reviews our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize
adjustments to the allowance based on its judgments about information available
to it at the time of their examinations.
5. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment." Statement No. 123(R) revised
Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and supersedes APB
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related
implementation guidance. Statement No. 123(R) will require compensation costs
related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial
statements (with limited exceptions). The amount of compensation cost will be
measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability
instruments issued. Compensation cost will be recognized over the period that an
employee provides service in exchange for the award.
On April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") adopted a new
rule that amends the compliance dates for Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based
Payment" ("SFAS No. 123R"). Under the new rule, the Company is required to adopt
SFAS No. 123R in the first annual period beginning after (June 15, 2005 for non
SB issuers, first annual period beginning after December 15, 2005 for SB
issuers). The Company has not yet determined the method of adoption or the
effect of adopting SFAS No. 123R, and it has not determined whether the adoption
will result in amounts that would be similar to the current pro forma
disclosures under SFAS No. 123.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
ITEM 2.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT
This Form 10-QSB may include certain forward-looking statements based on current
management expectations. The actual results of the Company could differ
materially from those management expectations. Factors that could cause future
results to vary from current management expectations include, but are not
limited to, general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes,
monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government, changes in tax policies,
rates and regulations of federal, state and local tax authorities, changes in
interest rates, deposit flows, the cost of funds, demand for loan products,
demand for financial services, competition, changes in the quality or
composition of loan and investment portfolios of the Bank, changes in accounting
principles, policies or guidelines, and other economic, competitive,
governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's operations,
markets, products, services and prices.
COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT MARCH 31, 2005 AND DECEMBER 31, 2004
Our total assets increased by $94,000, or 0.1%, to $86.8 million at
March 31, 2005, from $86.7 million at December 31, 2004. During the three months
ended March 31, 2005, the level of cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.5
million, or 59.0%, to $2.4 million at March 31, 2005 from $5.9 million at
December 31, 2004. Term deposits increased $496,000 or 612.3% to $577,000 at
March 31, 2005 when compared with $81,000 at December 31, 2004. The decrease in
cash and cash equivalents and the increase in term deposits during this three
month period resulted from deployment of funds raised from the initial public
stock offering that was completed on December 16, 2004.
Securities available for sale decreased $742,000 or 17.2% to $3.6
million at March 31, 2005 when compared with $4.3 million at December 31, 2004.
The decrease in securities available for sale during the 2005 period resulted
primarily from maturities of $700,000, unrealized loss of $16,000 and repayments
of $11,000. Securities held to maturity increased $2.3 million or 13.5% to $19.3
million at March 31, 2005 when compared with $17.0 million at December 31, 2004.
During the three months ended March 31, 2005, purchases of securities held to
maturity amounted to $3.5 million which was sufficient to offset maturities and
repayments of $1.1 million.
Loans receivable amounted to $58.6 million and $57.2 million at March
31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, representing an increase of $1.4
million or 2.5%. Our increase in loans resulted primarily from increased one-to
four family mortgage loan originations as borrowers continued to take advantage
of low market interest rates.
Total deposits decreased $775,000, or 1.4% to $56.4 million at March 31,
2005 from $57.2 million at December 31, 2004. Advances from Federal Home Loan
Bank of New York ("FHLB") increased $655,000 or 4.1% to $16.8 million at March
31, 2005 when compared with $16.1 million at December 31, 2004. The proceeds
from new advances were used to fund deposit outflow.
Stockholders' equity totaled $12.9 million and $12.8 million at March
31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively, reflecting net income of $120,000
for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and offset by other comprehensive
loss, net of income taxes, of $17,000.

LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005 AND
2004
GENERAL. Net income decreased $21,000, or 14.9%, to $120,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2005, from $141,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2004. The decrease in net income reflects increases in provision for
loan losses and non-interest expenses along with a decrease in non-interest
income, sufficient to offset an increase in net interest income and a decrease
in income taxes.
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased $142,000, or 15.9%, to $1.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $892,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2004. The increase in interest income is due to increases
of $101,000 in interest income from loans, $37,000 in interest on securities,
and $3,000 in interest income from other interest earning assets.
Interest income from loans increased by $101,000, or 15.2%, to $765,000
for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $664,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2004. The increase was due to a $9.1 million or 18.7% increase
in the average balance of loans to $57.9 million during the quarter ended March
31, 2005 from $48.8 million during the same quarter in 2004, sufficient to
offset a decrease in the average yield to 5.28% from 5.44%. Interest income from
securities, including available for sale and held to maturity, increased by
$37,000, or 16.8%, to $257,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from
$220,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The increase in interest
income from securities was due to an increase of $3.8 million or 19.2% in the
average balance of securities to $23.6 million during the quarter ended March
31, 2005 from $19.8 million during the same quarter in 2004 and a decrease in
the average yield to 4.36% in 2005 from 4.44% in 2004. Interest income from
other interest-earning assets increased $3,000, or 37.5% to $11,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 2005, from $8,000 for the three months ended March
31, 2004. The increase in interest income from other interest-earning assets was
due to an increase in the average yield to 1.74% in 2005 from 1.30% in 2004, and
an increase in the average balance to $2.8 million in 2005 from $2.5 million in
2004.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Total interest expense increased $58,000, or 18.7%, to
$368,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from $310,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2004. The interest expense on interest-bearing deposits
increased by $9,000 or 4.0% to $233,000 in 2005 when compared with $224,000 in
the comparable 2004 period. The increase in interest expense on deposits
resulted from an increase in the average cost of interest-bearing deposits to
1.67% from 1.62%, reflecting the increasing market interest rates during the
period between the comparable quarters and an increase in the average balance of
interest-bearing deposits to $55.6 million in 2005 from $55.4 million in 2004.
The interest expense on borrowed money increased $49,000 or 57.0% to $135,000 in
2005 from $86,000 in comparable 2004 period. The increase resulted from an
increase of $5.0 million in the average balance of borrowed money to $16.8
million in 2005 from $11.8 million in 2004 and an increase of 30 basis points in
the cost of borrowed money to 3.21% in 2005 from 2.91% in 2004.
NET INTEREST INCOME. Net interest income increased $84,000, or 14.4%, to
$666,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from $582,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2004. Our interest rate spread decreased to 2.88% for the
quarter ended March 31, 2005 from 3.17% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004,
reflecting an increase of eighteen basis points in the cost of our interest
bearing liabilities. Despite the decline in net interest spread, net interest
income increased due to increases in both total and net interest-earning assets.
Our net interest margin decreased to 3.16% in 2005 from 3.27% in 2004.

LINCOLN PARK BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------------------------------
COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2005 AND
2004 (CONT'D.)
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. We establish provisions for loan losses,
which are charged to operations, at a level necessary to absorb known and
inherent losses that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the date of
the financial statements. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan
losses, management considers historical loss experience, the types of loans and
the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect
the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying
collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently
subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision
as more information becomes available or as future events change. Based on our
evaluation of these factors, management recorded a provision for loan losses of
$27,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and a recovery of $16,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2004.
The allowance for loan losses was $183,000, or 0.31% of gross loans
outstanding at March 31, 2005, as compared with $110,000, or 0.22% of gross
loans outstanding at March 31, 2004. The level of the allowance is based on
estimates, and the ultimate losses may vary from the estimates.
NON-INTEREST INCOME. Non-interest income decreased $13,000, or 44.8%, to
$16,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to $29,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2004. The primary reason for the decrease in
non-interest income was a loss of $7,000 during the March 31, 2005 quarter on
the call of an investment security that was purchased at a premium, compared to
a gain of $2,000 during the March 31, 2004 quarter on the call of an investment
security that was purchased at a discount.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSES. Non-interest expenses were $459,000 and $392,000
for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, representing
an increase of $67,000 or 17.1%. The increase in non-interest expenses is
primarily due to increases in other expenses of $58,000 primarily due to
additional legal, accounting, printing and other expenses associated with being
a public company.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE. The provision for income taxes decreased to $76,000
for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from $94,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2004. The decrease in the provision for income taxes is
primarily due to a decrease in income before income taxes of $39,000 to $196,000
for the three months ended March 31, 2005, as compared to $235,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2004.
MANAGEMENT OF MARKET RISK
GENERAL. The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in
nature. Consequently, our most significant form of market risk is interest rate
risk. Our assets, consisting primarily of mortgage loans, have longer maturities
than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits. As a result, a principal
part of our business strategy is to manage interest rate risk and reduce the
exposure of our net interest income to changes in market interest rates. Our
full board of directors is responsible for evaluating the interest rate risk
inherent in our assets and liabilities, for determining the level of risk that
is appropriate, given our business strategy, operating environment, capital,
liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with
the guidelines approved by the board of directors. Senior management monitors
the level of interest rate risk and reports to the board of directors on a
regular basis with respect to our asset/liability policies and interest rate
risk position.

MANAGEMENT OF MARKET RISK (CONT'D.)
We have emphasized the origination of fixed-rate mortgage loans for
retention in our portfolio in order to maximize our net interest income. We
accept increased exposure to interest rate fluctuations as a result of our
investment in such loans. In a period of rising interest rates, our net interest
rate spread and net interest income may be negatively affected. However, this
negative impact is expected to be mitigated somewhat by the net proceeds from
the stock offering completed in December 2004 which will support the future
growth of our interest-earning assets. In addition, we have sought to manage and
mitigate our exposure to interest rate risks in the following ways:
o We maintain moderate levels of short-term liquid assets. At March 31,
2005, our short-term liquid assets totaled $3.3 million;
o We originate for portfolio adjustable-rate mortgage loans and adjustable
home equity lines of credit. At March 31, 2005, our adjustable-rate
mortgage loans totaled $9.7 million and our adjustable home equity lines
of credit totaled $6.2 million;
o We attempt to increase the maturity of our liabilities as market
conditions allow. In particular, in 2004, we have emphasized
intermediate- to long-term FHLB advances as a source of funds. At March
31, 2005, we had $13.1 million of FHLB advances with terms to maturity
of between three and ten years; and
o We invest in securities with step-up rate features providing for
increased interest rates prior to maturity according to a pre-determined
schedule and formula. However, these step-up rates may not keep pace
with rising interest rates in the event of a rapidly rising rate
environment. In addition, these investments may be called at the option
of the issuer.
NET PORTFOLIO VALUE. The Company utilizes an outside vendor to prepare
the computation of accounts by which the net present value of the Company's cash
flow from assets, liabilities and off balance sheet items (the company's net
portfolio value or "NPV") would change in the event of a range of assumed
changes in market interest rates. The vendor provides the Company with an
interest rate sensitivity report of net portfolio value by utilizing a
simulation model that uses a discounted cash flow analysis and an option-based
pricing approach to measuring the interest rate sensitivity of net portfolio
value. The model estimates the economic value of each type of assets, liability
and off-balance sheet contract under the assumption that the yield curve
increases or decreases instantaneously by 200 basis points. A basis point equals
one-hundredth of one percent, and 100 basis points equals one percent. An
increase in interest rates from 3% to 5% would mean, for example, a 200 basis
point increase in the change of interest rates.
The most recent NPV analysis prepared for the Company was as of December
31, 2004. That analysis was included in the Company's 2004 Annual Report to
stockholders.

MANAGEMENT OF MARKET RISK (CONT'D.)
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodology used in the
vendor's interest rate risk measurement. Modeling changes in net portfolio value
require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in
which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. In
this regards, the net portfolio value estimate assumes that the composition of
our interest-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a
period remains constant over the period being measured and assumes that a
particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield
curve regardless of the duration or re-pricing of specific assets and
liabilities. Accordingly, although the net portfolio value estimate provides an
indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time,
such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of
the effect of changes in market interest rates on its net interest income and
will differ from actual results.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Bank is required to maintain levels of liquid assets sufficient to ensure
the Bank's safe and sound operation. Liquidity is the ability to meet current
and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Bank adjusts its
liquidity levels in order to meet funding needs for deposit outflows, payment of
real estate taxes from escrow accounts on mortgage loans, repayment of
borrowings, when applicable, and loan funding commitments. The Bank also adjusts
its liquidity level as appropriate to meet its asset/liability objectives.
The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, amortization and prepayments
of loans and mortgage-backed securities principal, FHLB advances, maturities of
investment securities and funds provided from operations. While scheduled loan
and mortgage-backed securities amortization and maturing investment securities
are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flow and loan and
mortgage-backed securities prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest
rates, economic conditions and competition.
The Bank's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a product of
its operating, investing and financing activities.
The primary sources of investing activity are lending and the purchase of Agency
and mortgage-backed securities. Net loans amounted to $58.6 million and $57.2
million at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. Securities
available for sale totaled $3.6 million and $4.3 million at March 31, 2005 and
December 31, 2004, respectively. Securities held to maturity totaled $19.3
million and $17.0 million at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.
In addition to funding new loan production and securities purchases through
operating and financing activities, such activities were funded by principal
repayments on existing loans and mortgage-backed securities.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business
management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments,
such as federal funds and interest-bearing deposits. If the Bank requires funds
beyond its ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with
the FHLB which provide an additional source of funds. At March 31, 2005,
advances from the FHLB amounted to $16.8 million.
The Bank anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its
current loan commitments. At March 31, 2005, the Bank has outstanding
commitments to originate loans of $1.9 million. Certificates of deposit
scheduled to mature in one year or less at March 31, 2005, totaled $16.5
million. Management believes that, based upon its experience and the Bank's
deposit flow history, a significant portion of such deposits will remain with
the Bank.
