ITEM 9. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
The Registrant hereby incorporates by reference into this Item 9 the
summary monthly financial data as of January 31, 2002 attached as
Exhibit 99.0, which is being furnished in accordance with Rule 101(e)(1) under
Regulation FD and shall not be deemed to be filed.
The Registrant hereby incorporates by reference into this Item 9 the
Loan Portfolio Segment Reports as of January 31, 2002, attached as
Exhibit 99.1, which are being furnished in accordance with Rule 101(e)(1)under
Regulation FD and shall not be deemed to be filed. This information is being
presented by management of the Registrant in response to the request of various
analysts and investors for additional information regarding the single family
loan portfolio of Registrant's sole subsidiary, First Federal Bank of
California (the "Bank"). Specifically, the report presents information which
management believes is relevant to the perceived issue of prepayment risk on
recently originated single family home loans in the Bank's portfolio.
Information regarding prepayment risk on other loans in the Bank's portfolio is
not presented herein.
A discussion of the factors that could impact this area as to the Bank's
loan portfolio in general, and the Registrant's overall business and financial
performance, can be found in the Registrant's reports filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. These factors include, among others, general economic
and business conditions and changes therein, competition, consumer preferences
and various other matters beyond the Registrant's control. Given these concerns,
investors and analysts should not place undue reliance on the enclosed
information. These reports speak only as of their stated date, and the
Registrant undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise the reports,
although it may do so from time to time as management of the Registrant
believes is warranted.
S I G N A T U R E S
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
