Diluted earnings per share is computed using the treasury stock method by adjusting the number of shares outstanding by the shares purchased. The weighted average shares outstanding for the diluted earnings per share calculations are 1,207,858 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 1,203,258 for the three months ended September 30, 2005.

NOTE 6. DIVIDENDS AND STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
 
This fiscal year Eagle has paid a dividend of $0.22 per share, on August 25, 2006. A dividend of $0.22 per share was declared on October 19, 2006, payable November 17, 2006 to stockholders of record on November 3, 2006. Eagle Financial MHC, Eagle's mutual holding company, has waived the receipt of dividends on its 648,493 shares.

At their regular meeting on July 21, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program for up to 28,750 shares. This represented approximately 6% of the outstanding common stock held by the public. The repurchased shares will be held as treasury stock and will be held for general corporate purposes and/or issuance pursuant to Eagle's benefit plans. As of November 1, 2006, 21,015 shares have been purchased under this program.

NOTE 7. MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS

The Bank allocates its total cost in mortgage loans between mortgage servicing rights and loans, based upon their relative fair values, when loans are subsequently sold or securitized, with the servicing rights retained. Fair values are generally obtained from an independent third party. Impairment of mortgage servicing rights is measured based upon the characteristics of the individual loans, including note rate, term, underlying collateral, current market conditions, and estimates of net servicing income. If the carrying value of the mortgage servicing rights exceeds the estimated fair market value, a valuation allowance is established for any decline, which is viewed to be temporary. Charges to the valuation allowance are charged against or credited to mortgage servicing income. Periodic independent valuations of the mortgage servicing rights are performed. As a result of the most recent valuation, no temporary decline in the fair value was determined to have occurred, and no valuation allowance has been established. The following schedules show the activity in the mortgage servicing rights and the valuation allowance.

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains certain “forward-looking statements.” Eagle Bancorp (“Eagle” or the “Company”) desires to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this statement for the express purpose of availing itself of the protections of the safe harbor with respect to all such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, which are included in Management's Discussion and Analysis, describe future plans or strategies and include Eagle's expectations of future financial results. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Eagle's ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies or qualitative or quantitative changes based on market risk is inherently uncertain. Factors which could affect actual results but are not limited to include (i) change in general market interest rates, (ii) general economic conditions, (iii) local economic conditions, (iv) legislative/regulatory changes, (v) monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Treasury and Federal Reserve, (vi) changes in the quality or composition of Eagle's loan and investment portfolios, (vii) demand for loan products, (viii) deposit flows, (ix) competition, and (x) demand for financial services in Eagle's markets. These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of their dates.

Overview

The Company's primary activity is its ownership of its wholly owned subsidiary, American Federal Savings Bank (the “Bank”). The Bank is a federally chartered savings bank, engaging in traditional banking activities: acquiring deposits from local markets and investing in loans and investment securities. The Bank's primary component of earnings is its net interest margin (also called spread or margin), the difference between interest income and interest expense. The net interest margin is managed by management (through the pricing of its products and by the types of products offered and kept in portfolio), and is affected by moves in interest rates. Noninterest income in the form of fee income and gain on sale of loans adds to the Bank's income.

The Bank has a strong mortgage lending focus, with the majority of its loans in single-family residential mortgages. This has led to successfully marketing home equity loans to its customers, as well as a wide range of shorter term consumer loans for various personal needs (automobiles, recreational vehicles, etc.). In recent years the Bank has focused on adding commercial loans to its portfolio, both real estate and non-real estate. The purpose of this diversification is to mitigate the Bank's dependence on the mortgage market, as well as to improve its ability to manage its spread. The Bank's management recognizes the need for sources of fee income to complement its margin, and the Bank now maintains a significant loan service portfolio, which provides a steady source of fee income. The gain on sale of loans also provides significant fee income in periods of high mortgage loan origination volumes. Fee income is also supplemented with fees generated from the Bank's deposit accounts. The Bank has a high percentage of non-maturity deposits, such as checking accounts and savings accounts, which allows management flexibility in managing its spread. Non-maturity deposits do not automatically reprice as interest rates rise, as do certificates of deposit.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview (continued)

For the past two years, management's focus has been on improving the Bank's core earnings. Core earnings can be described as income before taxes, with the exclusion of gain on sale of loans and adjustments to the market value of the Bank's loan service portfolio. Management believes that the Bank will need to continue to focus on increasing net interest margin, other areas of fee income, and controlling operating expenses to achieve earnings growth going forward. Management's strategy of growing the bank's loan portfolio and deposit base is designed to help achieve these goals: loans typically earn higher rates of return than investments; a larger deposit base will yield higher fee income; increasing the asset base will reduce the relative impact of fixed operating costs. The biggest challenge to the strategy is funding the growth of the Bank’s balance sheet in an efficient manner. Deposit growth will be difficult to maintain due to fierce competition and wholesale funding (which is usually more expensive than retail deposits) will likely be needed to supplement it.

The level and movement of interest rates impacts the Bank's earnings as well. The yield curve continues to be flat, i.e. short-term interest rates are approximately at the same level as long-term interest rates. This can have a negative impact on the Bank's net interest margin as its deposits are typically priced relative to short-term rates, while the majority of its loan products are priced relative to long-term rates. The Bank has been able to partially offset this effect by reinvesting investment proceeds in the loan portfolio, because as noted earlier, loans typically earn higher rates of return than investments. Additionally, many of the Bank’s investments which mature in the coming year are at low (below current market) interest rates, affording an opportunity to reinvest the proceeds at the current higher rates and increasing interest income in the coming quarters.

Financial Condition

Comparisons in this section are for the three month period ended September 30, 2006.

Total assets increased by $6.84 million, or 3.02%, to $233.02 million at September 30, 2006, from $226.18 million at June 30, 2006. Total liabilities increased by $5.94 million to $209.57 million at September 30, 2006, from $203.63 million at June 30, 2006. Total equity increased $890,000 to $23.44 million at September 30, 2006 from $22.55 million at June 30, 2006.

Financial Condition (continued)

Loans receivable increased $3.92 million, or 2.78%, to $144.78 million at September 30, 2006 from $140.86 million at June 30, 2006. Single family mortgage loans were the loan category with the largest increase, $2.50 million, and most other loan categories showed some increase. Total loan originations were $28.25 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, with single family mortgages accounting for $15.54 million of the total. Home equity and construction loan originations totaled $4.30 million and $3.42 million, respectively, for the same period. Commercial real estate and land loan originations totaled $2.59 million. Loans held-for-sale increased to $2.43 million at September 30, 2006 from $918,000 at June 30, 2006.

Deposits grew $1.82 million, or 1.04%, to $176.16 million at September 30, 2006 from $174.34 million at June 30, 2006. Growth in certificates of deposit and interest bearing checking accounts contributed to the increase in deposits. Non-interest checking showed a modest increase, while money market and passbook savings accounts declined slightly. As stated above in the Overview section, deposit growth is expected to continue to be difficult to achieve due to the fierce competition among financial institutions in our markets. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank increased $3.46 million, or 15.47%, to $25.83 million from $22.37 million.

The growth in total equity was the result of earnings for the three months of $422,000 and a decrease in other comprehensive loss of $670,000 (mainly due to a decrease in net unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale). These were partially offset by the payment of a $0.22 per share regular cash dividend and stock repurchases.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2006 and 2005

Net Income. Eagle's net income was $422,000 and $499,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006, and 2005, respectively. The decrease of $77,000, or 15.43%, was due to decreases in noninterest income of $106,000 and net interest income of $16,000, as well as an increase in noninterest expense of $24,000. Eagle's tax provision was $69,000 lower in the current quarter. Basic earnings per share were $0.39 for the current period, compared to $0.46 for the previous year's period.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 (Continued)

Net Interest Income. Net interest income decreased slightly to $1.654 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 from $1.670 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. This decrease of $16,000 was the result of an increase in interest expense of $572,000, partially offset by the increase in interest and dividend income of $556,000.

Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income was $2.994 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to $2.438 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2005, representing an increase of $556,000, or 22.81%. Interest and fees on loans increased to $2.311 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $1.790 million for the same period ended September 30, 2005. This increase of $521,000, or 29.11%, was due primarily to the increase in the average balances on loans receivable for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. Average balances for loans receivable, net, for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 were $144.36 million, compared to $113.75 million for the previous year. This represents an increase of $30.61 million, or 26.91%. The average interest rate earned on loans receivable increased by 11 basis points, from 6.29% at September 30, 2005 to 6.40% at September 30, 2006. Interest and dividends on investment securities available-for-sale (AFS) increased to $660,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 from $623,000 for the same quarter last year. Average balances on investments decreased to $65.44 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to $73.84 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The average interest rate earned on investments increased to 4.10% from 3.45%. Interest on securities held to maturity (HTM) decreased from $14,000 to $11,000 due to lower balances.

Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased to $1.340 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, from $768,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005, an increase of $572,000, or 74.48%. Interest on deposits increased to $934,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, from $666,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. This increase of $268,000, or 40.24%, was the result of an increase in average rates paid on deposit accounts. Certificates of deposit and money market accounts showed increases in average rates paid while passbook savings and checking accounts had no change. Average balances in interest-bearing deposit accounts increased slightly to $161.48 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to $160.62 million for the same quarter in the previous year. The significant increase in the average balance of borrowings from the FHLB and the issuance of the trust preferred securities last year resulted in an increase in interest paid on borrowings to $406,000 in the current quarter compared to $127,000 in the previous year’s quarter. The average rate paid on borrowings also increased from 3.94% last year to 5.27% this year. The average rate paid on all liabilities increased 99 basis points from the quarter ended September 30, 2005 to the quarter ended September 30, 2006.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 (Continued)

Provision for Loan Losses. Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to maintain the total allowance for loan losses at a level considered adequate by Eagle’s subsidiary, American Federal Savings Bank (the Bank), to provide for probable loan losses based on prior loss experience, volume and type of lending conducted by the Bank, available peer group information, and past due loans in portfolio. The Bank's policies require the review of assets on a quarterly basis. The Bank classifies loans as well as other assets if warranted. While the Bank believes it uses the best information available to make a determination with respect to the allowance for loan losses, it recognizes that future adjustments may be necessary. No provision was made for loan losses for either the quarter ended September 30, 2006 or the quarter ended September 30, 2005. This is a reflection of the continued strong asset quality of the Bank's loan portfolio, as non-performing loan ratios continue to be below peer averages. Total classified assets decreased slightly from $700,000 at June 30, 2006 to $672,000 at September 30, 2006 and total less than 1% of the total loan portfolio. At quarter end, the Bank had no other real estate owned.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income decreased to $537,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, from $643,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of $106,000. This was the result of a decrease in net gain on sale of loans and to the absence of an adjustment of $46,000 to the valuation of the Bank’s mortgage servicing rights as occurred in the first quarter of 2005. That adjustment was reflected in mortgage loan servicing fees in 2005. Mortgage loan servicing fees decreased to $138,000 for the current quarter from $191,000 for the previous year’s quarter. Income from sale of loans decreased to $119,000 from $173,000 due to lower mortgage loan originations. Other noninterest income increased to $145,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 from $135,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. This was primarily due to increased fee income on electronic payments.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased by $24,000, or 1.51%, to $1.616 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, from $1.592 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to increases in legal and accounting fees of $24,000, advertising expense of $23,000, and occupancy expense of $17,000. Legal and accounting fees were higher due to outsourcing the Bank’s internal audit function and higher legal fees at the holding company level. Advertising expense was higher due to increased promotion of checking products. Occupancy expense was higher due to maintenance work done on several branch buildings. The slowdown in mortgage loan prepayments led to a decrease in the amortization of mortgage servicing fees of $30,000. Other expense categories showed minor changes.

Income Tax Expense. Eagle's income tax expense was $153,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to $222,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was 26.61% and was 30.79% for the quarter ended September 30, 2005.

Liquidity, Interest Rate Sensitivity and Capital Resources

The Company's subsidiary, American Federal Savings Bank (the Bank), is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as defined by the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) regulations. The OTS has eliminated the statutory requirement based upon a percentage of deposits and short-term borrowings. The OTS states that the liquidity requirement is retained for safety and soundness purposes, and that appropriate levels of liquidity will depend upon the types of activities in which the company engages. For internal reporting purposes, the Bank uses the previous regulatory definitions of liquidity. The Bank's average liquidity ratio was 17.34% and 17.96% for the months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity, Interest Rate Sensitivity and Capital Resources

The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investments, funds provided from operations, and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. Scheduled repayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities and maturities of investment securities are generally predictable. However, other sources of funds, such as deposit flows and loan prepayments, can be greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank uses liquidity resources principally to fund existing and future loan commitments. It also uses them to fund maturing certificates of deposit, demand deposit withdrawals and to invest in other loans and investments, maintain liquidity, and meet operating expenses.

Liquidity may be adversely affected by unexpected deposit outflows, higher interest rates paid by competitors, and similar matters. Management monitors projected liquidity needs and determines the level desirable, based in part on commitments to make loans and management's assessment of the bank's ability to generate funds.

At June 30, 2006 (the most recent report available), the Bank's measure of sensitivity to interest rate movements, as measured by the OTS, worsened from the previous quarter. The Bank's capital ratio as measured by the OTS decreased from the previous quarter. The Bank’s strong capital position mitigates its interest rate risk exposure. The Bank is well within the guidelines set forth by the Board of Directors for interest rate risk sensitivity.

As of September 30, 2006, the Bank's regulatory capital was in excess of all applicable regulatory requirements. At September 30, 2006, the Bank's tangible, core, and risk-based capital ratios amounted to 10.91%, 10.91%, and 15.47%, respectively, compared to regulatory requirements of 1.5%, 3.0%, and 8.0%, respectively.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Our financial statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time and due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than do the general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Application of Critical Accounting Policies
 
There are a number of accounting estimates performed by the Company in preparing its financial statements. Some of the estimates are developed internally, while others are obtained from independent third parties. Examples of estimates using external sources are the fair market value of investment securities, fair value of mortgage servicing rights, deferred compensation, and appraised value of foreclosed properties. It is management's assertion that the external sources have access to resources, methodologies, and markets that provide adequate assurances that no material impact would occur due to changes in assumptions. The following accounting estimates are performed internally:

 
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL) - Management applies its knowledge of current local economic and real estate market conditions, historical experience, loan portfolio composition, and the assessment of delinquent borrowers' situations, to determine the adequacy of its ALLL reserve. These factors are reviewed by the Bank's federal banking regulator and the Company's external auditors on a regular basis. The current level of the ALLL reserve is deemed to be more than adequate given the above factors, with no material impact expected due to a difference in the assumptions.

Deferred Loan Fees - Management applies time study and statistical analysis to determine loan origination costs to be capitalized under FAS 91. The analysis is reviewed by the Company's external auditors for reasonableness. No material impact is expected if different assumptions are used, as many of our loans have a short duration.

Deferred Tax Assets - Management expects to realize the deferred tax assets due to the continued profitability of the Company.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments - Management uses an internal model to determine fair value for its loan portfolio and certificates of deposit. The assumptions entail spreads over the Treasury yield curve at appropriate maturity benchmarks. Assumptions incorporating different spreads would naturally deliver varying results; however, due to the short-term nature of the loan portfolio and certificates of deposit, changes in the results would be mitigated. Currently, the fair value is only presented as footnote information, and changes due to new assumptions would not, in management's opinion, affect the reader's opinion of the Company's financial condition.

Economic Life of Fixed Assets - Management determines the useful life of its buildings, furniture, and equipment for depreciation purposes. These estimates are reviewed by the Company's external auditors for reasonableness. No material impact is expected if different assumptions were to be used.
