                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE (1) - BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

     In the opinion of Downey Financial Corp. and subsidiaries  ("Downey," "we,"
"us" and "our"), the accompanying  consolidated financial statements contain all
adjustments  (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair
presentation of Downey's financial  condition as of March 31, 2002, December 31,
2001 and March 31, 2001 and the results of operations, comprehensive income, and
changes  in cash  flows  for the three  months  ended  March 31,  2002 and 2001.
Certain prior period  amounts have been  reclassified  to conform to the current
period presentation.

     The accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America  for  interim  financial  statements  and  are in  compliance  with  the
instructions  for Form 10-Q and  therefore  do not include all  information  and
footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial  condition,  results of
operations, comprehensive income and cash flows. The following information under
the heading  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition  and
Results  of  Operations  is  written  with  the  presumption  that  the  interim
consolidated  financial  statements  will be read in  conjunction  with Downey's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001,  which contains
among  other  things,  a  description  of  the  business,   the  latest  audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto,  together with Management's
Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition and Results of Operations as of
December 31, 2001 and for the year then ended. Therefore,  only material changes
in financial  condition and results of operations are discussed in the remainder
of Part I.

NOTE (2) - EARNINGS PER SHARE

     Earnings per share is calculated on both a basic and diluted  basis.  Basic
earnings  per  share  excludes  dilution  and is  computed  by  dividing  income
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding  for the period.  Diluted  earnings per share reflects the potential
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock
were  exercised or  converted  into common  stock or resulted  from  issuance of
common stock that then shared in earnings.

     The following  table presents a  reconciliation  of the components  used to
derive basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated.

(1)  The estimated fair value may exceed book value for certain asset strata and
     excluded  loans  sold or  securitized  prior  to 1996  without  capitalized
     mortgage servicing rights.



     Key assumptions, which vary due to changes in market interest rates and are
used to determine  the fair value of our  mortgage  servicing  rights,  include:
expected prepayment speeds, which impact the average life of the portfolio;  the
earnings  rate on  custodial  accounts,  which  impact  the  value of  custodial
accounts;  and the discount  rate used in valuing  future cash flows.  The table
below  summarizes  the  estimated  changes  in the fair  value  of our  mortgage
servicing  rights  for  changes  in  those   assumptions   individually  and  in
combination associated with an immediate 100 basis point increase or decrease in
market rates.  Also summarized is the earnings impact associated with provisions
to or  reductions  in the valuation  allowance  for mortgage  servicing  rights.
Impairment is measured on a disaggregated  basis based upon the predominant risk
characteristics  of the  underlying  mortgage  loans  such as term  and  coupon.
Certain  stratum may have  impairment,  while other stratum may not.  Therefore,
changes in overall fair value may not equal  provisions  to or reductions in the
valuation allowance.

                                       8



     The sensitivity  analysis in the table below is hypothetical  and should be
used with caution. As the figures indicate, changes in fair value based on a 100
basis point  variation in assumptions  generally  cannot be easily  extrapolated
because the  relationship of the change in the assumptions to the change in fair
value may not be linear.  Also,  in this  table,  the effect  that a change in a
particular  assumption may have on the fair value is calculated without changing
any other assumption. In reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in
another, which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

NOTE (5) - ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Derivatives

     We offer  short-term  interest  rate lock  commitments  to help us  attract
potential home loan borrowers.  The commitments  guarantee a specified  interest
rate for a loan if our  underwriting  standards are met, but do not obligate the
potential  borrower.  The  residential   one-to-four  unit  interest  rate  lock
commitments we ultimately  expect to sell in the secondary market are treated as
derivatives. Consequently, as derivatives, the hedging of the expected rate lock
commitments  do  not  qualify  for  hedge  accounting.   Associated  fair  value
adjustments  are recorded in current  earnings under net gains on sales of loans
and  mortgage-backed  securities  with an offset to the balance  sheet in either
other  assets,  or accounts  payable and  accrued  liabilities.  Fair values for
interest rate lock  commitments  are based on observable  market prices acquired
from third parties.  The carrying amount of loans held for sale includes a basis
adjustment to the loan at funding resulting from the change in the fair value of
the interest  rate lock  derivative  from the date of  commitment to the date of
funding.  At March 31, 2002, we had rate lock  commitments  estimated to sell as
part of our secondary  marketing  activities of $235 million,  with an estimated
fair value of $236  million,  including  a $2.7  million  gain  associated  with
mortgage servicing rights.

Hedging Activities

     As  part  of our  secondary  marketing  activities,  we  typically  utilize
short-term forward sale and purchase contracts--derivatives--that mature in less
than one year to offset the impact of  changes in market  interest  rates on the
value of our  residential  one-to-four  unit interest rate lock  commitments and
loans held for sale. We do not generally enter into derivative  transactions for
purely  speculative  purposes.  Contracts  designated to loans held for sale are
accounted  for  as  cash  flow  hedges  because  these  contracts  have  a  high
correlation  to the price  movement of the loans being hedged (within a range of
80% - 125%). The measurement approach for determining the ineffective aspects of
the hedge is established at the inception of the hedge.  Changes in forward sale
contract values not designated to loans held for sale and the ineffectiveness of
hedge  transactions that are not perfectly  correlated are recorded in net gains
on sales of loans  and  mortgage-backed  securities.  Changes  in  forward  sale
contract  values  designated  as cash flow  hedges  for loans  held for sale are
recorded in other  comprehensive  income,  net of tax,  provided cash flow hedge
requirements are met. The offset to these changes in forward

                                       9



sale  contract  values are recorded in the balance sheet as either other assets,
or accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The amounts recorded in accumulated
other  comprehensive  income will be recognized in the income statement when the
hedged  forecasted  transactions  settle.  We  estimate  that all of the related
unrealized  gains or losses in accumulated  other  comprehensive  income will be
reclassified into earnings within the next three months. Fair values for forward
sale  contracts  are based on  observable  market  prices  acquired  from  third
parties.  At March 31, 2002,  forward sale  contracts  amounted to $623 million,
with an  estimated  fair  value of $628  million,  of which  $392  million  were
designated as cash flow hedges, and there were no forward purchase contracts.

     We have not discontinued any designated derivative  instruments  associated
with  loans  held for sale due to a change  in the  probability  of  settling  a
forecasted transaction.

     The following  table  contains the amount of expected rate lock  commitment
derivatives for loans  originated for sale, loans held for sale and the notional
amounts for their associated hedging derivatives (i.e., forward sale contracts).
Also shown is the impact from  non-qualifying  hedges and the ineffectiveness of
cash flow  hedges on net gains  (losses)  on sales of loans and  mortgage-backed
securities (i.e., SFAS 133 effect), as well as the impact to other comprehensive
income (loss) from qualifying cash flow transactions.

NOTE (6) - INCOME TAXES

     Downey and its wholly owned subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income
tax return and various state income and franchise tax returns on a calendar year
basis. The Internal  Revenue Service and state taxing  authorities have examined
Downey's tax returns for all tax years through 1995 and are currently  reviewing
returns  filed for the 1996 and 1997 tax  years.  Tax years  subsequent  to 1997
remain open to review by federal and state tax authorities.  Downey's management
believes it has adequately provided for potential exposure with regard to issues
that may be raised in the years currently under examination and open to review.

NOTE (7) - CURRENT ACCOUNTING ISSUES

     Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 142. SFAS 142 applies to
all acquired intangible assets whether acquired singularly,  as part of a group,
or in a business  combination.  The  Statement  supersedes  APB  Opinion No. 17,
"Intangible  Assets," and carries  forward  provisions  in Opinion 17 related to
internally developed intangible assets. The Statement changes the accounting for
goodwill from an amortization  method to an impairment-only  approach.  Goodwill
should no longer be  amortized,  but  instead  tested  for  impairment  at least
annually at the reporting unit level.  The  accounting  provisions are effective
for fiscal years  beginning  after December 31, 2001. Our intangible  assets and
goodwill  are  related to branch  acquisitions  and not within the scope of SFAS
142.  However,  this may change as the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board is
currently  reconsidering  the exclusion of amortization  of goodwill  related to
branch  acquisitions  and is expected to issue a final  Statement  in the fourth
quarter of 2002.  We  recognized  an  unidentified  intangible  asset for branch
acquisitions because the fair value of the liabilities assumed exceeded the fair
value of the assets acquired. For the first quarter of 2002, our amortization of
excess of cost over fair value of branch acquisitions was $0.1 million and as of
March 31, 2002, this asset totaled $3.0 million.

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143. Statement of Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 143,  "Accounting  for Asset  Retirement  Obligations"
("SFAS 143"),  addresses  financial  accounting  and  reporting for  obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible  long-lived assets and the associated
asset  retirement  costs.  This Statement is effective for financial  statements
issued for fiscal years  beginning  after June 15, 2002. It is anticipated  that
the  financial  impact  of this  Statement  will not have a  material  effect on
Downey.

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144. Statement of Financial
Accounting  Standards  No. 144,  "Accounting  for the  Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"),  addresses  financial  accounting and reporting
for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets.  This Statement  supersedes
SFAS No.  121,  "Accounting  for the  Impairment  of  Long-Lived  Assets and for
Long-Lived  Assets  to  be  Disposed  Of,"  and  the  accounting  and  reporting
provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting
the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business,  and Extraordinary,  Unusual
and  Infrequently  Occurring  Events and  Transactions,"  for the  disposal of a
segment  of  a  business.  This  Statement  also  eliminates  the  exception  to
consolidation for a subsidiary for which control is likely to be temporary.  The
provisions of this Statement are effective for financial  statements  issued for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those
fiscal  years.  The  provisions  of this  Statement  generally are to be applied
prospectively.  It is  anticipated  that the financial  impact of this Statement
will not have a material effect on Downey.

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

     Certain  statements  under this  caption  may  constitute  "forward-looking
statements"  under the Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995 which
involve risks and  uncertainties.  Our actual  results may differ  significantly
from the results  discussed  in such  forward-looking  statements.  Factors that
might  cause  such a  difference  include,  but are  not  limited  to,  economic
conditions, competition in the geographic and business areas in which we conduct
our operations,  fluctuations  in interest rates,  credit quality and government
regulation.

OVERVIEW

     Our net income for the first quarter of 2002 totaled $37.3 million or $1.32
per share on a diluted basis, up 44.3% from the $25.9 million or $0.91 per share
in the year-ago first quarter.

     The  increase in net income  between  first  quarters was due to higher net
income from both of our business segments as follows:

     o    Banking  operations  contributed  $10.2 million to the increase in net
          income reflecting:

          o    a $14.3  million  increase  in net gains  from sales of loans and
               mortgage-backed securities, and mortgage servicing rights;

          o    a  $7.6  million  improvement  in  our  loan  servicing  activity
               primarily due to a smaller  addition to the  valuation  allowance
               for mortgage servicing rights;

          o    a $3.8 million increase in net interest income due to an increase
               in our effective interest rate spread; and

          o    a $1.3 million increase in loan and deposit related fees.

          Those favorable items were partially offset by:

          o    an $8.0 million  increase in  operating  expenses  reflecting  an
               increased  number of branch locations and higher loan origination
               activity; and

          o    a $1.4 million increase in provision for loan losses.

     o    Real estate  investment  activities  contributed  $1.2  million to the
          increase in net income reflecting:

          o    a recapture of $1.3 million of a previously established valuation
               allowance; and

          o    an  increase  of $0.3  million  in net  gains  to a total of $0.6
               million.

     In  addition  to higher  net  income,  our key  performance  measures  also
improved between first quarters as follows:

     o    our efficiency  ratio (the  percentage of our net interest  income and
          other income,  excluding income from real estate investment activities
          and investment  securities gains or losses,  used to cover our general
          and administrative expense) improved from 45.8% to 41.8%;

     o    our return on average assets improved from 0.94% to 1.36%; and

     o    our return on average equity improved from 16.28% to 19.96%.

     Our single family loan  originations  totaled  $2.259  billion in the first
quarter of 2002,  up 57.1% from the $1.438  billion we  originated  in the first
quarter of 2001 but down 9.6% from the record  $2.500  billion we  originated in
the previous  quarter.  Of the current quarter total,  $992 million  represented
originations of loans for portfolio,  of which $107 million represented subprime
credits.  In addition to single family loans, we originated $46 million of other
loans in the quarter.

     At quarter-end,  our assets totaled $10.9 billion and our deposits  totaled
$8.6  billion,  both of which  were down  slightly  from a year ago.  During the
quarter,  six new in-store branches and one new traditional  branch were opened,
bringing our total  branches at quarter end to 144, of which 74 are in-store.  A
year ago, branches totaled 121, of which 56 were in-store.

     Our  non-performing  assets  increased $1 million during the quarter to $94
million or 0.86% of total assets.  This increase was due to a rise in commercial
real estate  non-accrual  loans of $2 million due primarily to a shopping center
loan whose principal  tenant declared  bankruptcy  during the quarter and ceased
paying rent.

                                       12



     At  March  31,  2002,  our  primary  subsidiary,  Downey  Savings  and Loan
Association,  F.A. (the "Bank")  exceeded all  regulatory  capital  tests,  with
capital-to-asset  ratios of 7.61% for both  tangible and core capital and 15.39%
for risk-based  capital.  These capital levels are significantly above the "well
capitalized"  standards defined by the federal banking regulators of 5% for core
and tangible capital and 10% for risk-based capital.

     We  have  established   various   accounting   policies  which  govern  the
application of accounting  principles generally accepted in the United States of
America  in  the  preparation  of  our  financial  statements.  Our  significant
accounting policies are described in Downey's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2001.  Certain  accounting  policies  require us to make
significant  estimates  and  assumptions  which  have a  material  impact on the
carrying  value of certain assets and  liabilities,  and we consider these to be
critical accounting policies.  The estimates and assumptions we use are based on
historical experience and other factors, which we believe to be reasonable under
the  circumstances.   Actual  results  could  differ  significantly  from  these
estimates  and  assumptions  which could have a material  impact on the carrying
value of assets and  liabilities  at the balance  sheet dates and our results of
operations for the reporting periods.

     We believe the following are critical  accounting policies that require the
most significant estimates and assumptions that are particularly  susceptible to
significant change in the preparation of our financial statements:

     o    Allowance   for  losses  on  loans  and  real   estate.   For  further
          information,   see   Financial   Condition--Problem   Loans  and  Real
          Estate--Allowance for Losses on Loans and Real Estate on page 31.

     o    Allowance for mortgage servicing rights. For further information,  see
          Note 4 on page 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

                                       13



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME

     Net interest  income is the  difference  between the interest and dividends
earned  on  loans,   mortgage-backed   securities  and   investment   securities
("interest-earning  assets") and the interest paid on deposits,  borrowings  and
capital  securities  ("interest-bearing  liabilities").  The spread  between the
yield on interest-earning  assets and the cost of  interest-bearing  liabilities
and the  relative  dollar  amounts of these assets and  liabilities  principally
affects net interest income.

     Our net interest income totaled $79.9 million in the first quarter of 2002,
up $3.8 million or 5.0% from the same period last year. The improvement  between
first  quarters  reflected an increase in our  effective  interest  rate spread,
which averaged 3.03% compared to 2.87% a year ago. The improvement between first
quarters was due to our cost of funds  declining  more rapidly than our yield on
earning assets. This is indicative of what typically happens when interest rates
decline,  as there is an administrative  lag in the repricing of our loans which
are primarily  priced to the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB")  Eleventh  District
Cost of Funds Index  ("COFI").  Our earning assets averaged $10.5 billion during
the quarter, slightly below the year-ago level.

     The  following  table  presents for the periods  indicated the total dollar
amount of:

     o    interest income from average interest-earning assets and the resultant
          yields; and

     o    interest  expense  on  average  interest-bearing  liabilities  and the
          resultant costs, expressed as rates.

     The table also sets forth our net interest income, interest rate spread and
effective  interest rate spread. The effective interest rate spread reflects the
relative level of interest-earning  assets to  interest-bearing  liabilities and
equals:

     o    the difference between interest income on interest-earning  assets and
          interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, divided by

     o    average interest-earning assets for the period.

     The table also sets forth our net interest-earning  balance--the difference
between the average balance of  interest-earning  assets and the average balance
of total deposits, borrowings and capital securities--for the periods indicated.
We included non-accrual loans in the average interest-earning assets balance. We
included  interest from non-accrual  loans in interest income only to the extent
we received  payments and to the extent we believe we will recover the remaining
principal  balance of the loans.  We computed  average  balances for the quarter
using the  average of each  month's  daily  average  balance  during the periods
indicated.

     Changes in our net interest  income are a function of both changes in rates
and  changes  in  volumes  of  interest-earning   assets  and   interest-bearing
liabilities. The following table sets forth information regarding changes in our
interest  income and  expense for the periods  indicated.  For each  category of
interest-earning  assets  and  interest-bearing  liabilities,  we have  provided
information on changes attributable to:

     o    changes in  volume--changes in volume multiplied by comparative period
          rate;

     o    changes in  rate--changes  in rate  multiplied by  comparative  period
          volume; and

     o    changes  in  rate/volume--changes  in rate  multiplied  by  changes in
          volume.

     Interest-earning asset and interest-bearing  liability balances used in the
calculations  represent quarterly average balances computed using the average of
each month's daily average balance during the period indicated.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

     Provision for loan losses was $1.4 million in the current quarter,  up from
$0.1 million in the first quarter of 2001. For further information regarding our
allowance  for loan  losses,  see  Financial  Condition--Problem  Loans and Real
Estate--Allowance for Losses on Loans and Real Estate on page 31.

OTHER INCOME

     Our total other income was $31.4  million in the first  quarter of 2002, up
$25.3 million from a year ago reflecting:

     o    a  $14.3  million  increase  in  net  gains  on  sales  of  loans  and
          mortgage-backed securities, and mortgage servicing rights;

     o    a $7.6 million  improvement in our loan servicing  activity  primarily
          due to a smaller  addition to the  valuation  allowance  for  mortgage
          servicing rights;

     o    a $2.0  million  increase  from real  estate held for  investment  due
          primarily to sales activity; and

     o    a $1.3 million increase in loan and deposit related fees.

                                       16



LOAN AND DEPOSIT RELATED FEES

     Loan and deposit related fees totaled $11.5 million in the first quarter of
2002,  up $1.3 million from a year ago.  Our deposit  related fees  increased by
$0.7 million or 18.8%,  primarily due to higher fees from our checking accounts.
Our loan related fees  accounted for $0.6 million of the increase  between first
quarters, of which $0.2 million represented higher loan prepayment fees.

     The following  table presents a breakdown of loan and deposit  related fees
during the periods indicated.



                                                                    Three Months Ended

REAL ESTATE AND JOINT VENTURES HELD FOR INVESTMENT

     Income from our real estate and joint ventures held for investment  totaled
$3.0 million in the first  quarter of 2002, up from $1.0 million a year ago. The
$2.0 million increase in our income from real estate held for investment was due
primarily to sales activity.  Sales in the first quarter of 2002 resulted in the
recapture of $1.3 million of a previously established valuation allowance and an
increase of $0.3  million in net gains to a total of $0.6  million.  Those gains
primarily  relate to joint venture  projects and are reported in the category of
equity in net income from joint ventures.

     The table below sets forth the key  components  comprising  our income from
real estate and joint venture operations during the periods indicated.

SECONDARY MARKETING ACTIVITIES

     Sales of loans and  mortgage-backed  securities we originated  increased in
the first  quarter of 2002 to $1.381  billion  from $597 million a year ago. Net
gains  associated with these sales totaled $16.2 million in the first quarter of
2002, up from $2.1 million a year ago. Net gains included the  capitalization of
mortgage  servicing  rights  of $15.0  million  in the  first  quarter  of 2002,
compared to $5.4 million a year ago.

     A loss of $0.6 million was recorded in loan servicing from our portfolio of
loans serviced for others during the first quarter of 2002, an improvement  from
a loss of $8.2 million in the  year-ago  period.  This $7.6 million  improvement
primarily  reflected a smaller addition to the valuation  allowance for mortgage
servicing rights, $0.4 million in the current quarter compared to $8.3 million a
year ago.  At March 31,  2002,  we  serviced  $6.4  billion  of loans for others
compared  to $5.8  billion at December  31,  2001 and $4.3  billion at March 31,
2001.

OPERATING EXPENSE

     Our operating expense totaled $45.2 million in the current quarter, up $8.0
million or 21.4% from the first  quarter of 2001  because of higher  general and
administrative  expense.  That  increase  was  primarily  due  to  higher  costs
associated  with an  increased  number  of  branch  locations  and  higher  loan
origination activity.

     The  following  table  presents a breakdown  of key  components  comprising
operating expense during the periods indicated.

Banking

     Net  income  from our  banking  operations  for the first  quarter  of 2002
totaled $35.6 million, up $10.2 million or 40.5% from $25.3 million in the first
quarter of 2001.  The increase  between first quarters  primarily  reflected the
following:

     o    a $14.3  million  increase  in net  gains  from  sales  of  loans  and
          mortgage-backed securities, and mortgage servicing rights;

     o    a $7.6 million  improvement in our loan servicing  activity  primarily
          due to a smaller  addition to the  valuation  allowance  for  mortgage
          servicing rights, $0.4 million in the current quarter compared to $8.3
          million a year ago;

     o    a $3.8 million  increase in net interest  income due to an increase in
          our effective interest rate spread; and

     o    a $1.3 million increase in loan and deposit related fees.

Those favorable items were partially offset by the following:

     o    an $8.0 million increase in operating expenses reflecting an increased
          number of branch locations and higher loan origination activity; and

     o    a $1.4 million  increase in provision for loan losses due primarily to
          a commercial real estate loan that became impaired during the quarter.

Real Estate Investment

     Net income from our real estate investment  operations totaled $1.8 million
in the first quarter of 2002, up from $0.6 million in the year-ago quarter.  The
increase was primarily  attributed to higher sales activity that resulted in the
recapture of $1.3 million of a previously established valuation allowance and an
increase of $0.3  million in net gains that  totaled $0.6 million in the current
quarter.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

LOANS AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES

     Total loans and  mortgage-backed  securities,  including  those we hold for
sale,  declined $44 million during the first quarter to a total of $10.1 billion
or 92.4% of assets at March 31, 2002. The decrease  represented a lower level of
loans held for sale and mortgage-backed  securities available for sale, as loans
held for  investment  increased  by $94  million.  Given the low  interest  rate
environment  and  borrower  preference  for fixed  rate  loans,  our  annualized
prepayment speed in the current quarter was 39%,  compared to 27% a year ago and
37% during the previous quarter.

     The following table sets forth loans originated,  including purchases,  for
investment and for sale during the periods indicated.

(1)      Residential one-to-four unit loans, primarily fixed.



     Originations of one-to-four unit  residential  loans totaled $2.259 billion
in the first quarter of 2002,  of which $992 million or 44% were for  portfolio,
with the  balance  for sale in the  secondary  market.  This was 9.6%  below the
$2.500  billion  originated in the fourth quarter of 2001, but 57.1% higher than
the $1.438 billion we originated in the year-ago  first quarter.  Of the current
quarter  originations for portfolio,  $107 million  represented  originations of
subprime  credits as part of our continuing  strategy to enhance the portfolio's
net yield. During the current quarter,  80% of our residential  one-to-four unit
originations represented refinancing transactions.  This is down from 82% in the
previous quarter,  but up from 71% in the year-ago first quarter. In addition to
single  family loans,  we  originated  $46 million of other loans in the current
quarter.

     During the current  quarter,  loan  originations  for investment  consisted
primarily of adjustable  rate mortgages tied to COFI, an index which lags behind
the movement in market  interest  rates.  This  experience is similar to that of
recent quarters.

     Our adjustable rate mortgages:

     o    generally begin with an incentive  interest rate, which is an interest
          rate below the current  market rate,  that  adjusts to the  applicable
          index plus a defined  spread,  subject to periodic and lifetime  caps,
          after one, three, six or twelve months;

     o    generally  provide  that  the  maximum  interest  rate  we can  charge
          borrowers  cannot exceed the  incentive  rate by more than six to nine
          percentage points,  depending on the type of loan and the initial rate
          offered; and

     o    limit  interest  rate  adjustments,  for loans  that  adjust  both the
          interest rate and payment amount simultaneously,  to 1% per adjustment
          period  for those  that  adjust  semi-annually  and 2% per  adjustment
          period for those that adjust annually.

     Most of our adjustable rate mortgages  adjust the interest rate monthly and
the payment annually. These monthly adjustable rate mortgages:

     o    have a lifetime interest rate cap, but no specified  periodic interest
          rate adjustment cap;

     o    have a periodic cap on changes in required monthly payments; and

     o    allow  for  negative  amortization,  which  is the  addition  to  loan
          principal of accrued  interest that exceeds the required  monthly loan
          payments.

                                       21



     If a loan incurs significant negative amortization, the loan-to-value ratio
could  increase  which  indicates an  increased  risk that the fair value of the
underlying  collateral  on the loan would be  insufficient  to satisfy fully the
outstanding  principal and interest.  A loan-to-value  ratio is the ratio of the
principal  amount of the loan to the lower of the sales price or appraised value
of the property securing the loan at origination. We currently impose a limit on
the amount of negative amortization.  The principal plus the added amount cannot
exceed 125% of the  original  loan amount,  except for subprime  loans and loans
with  loan-to-value  ratios of 80% or greater  wherein the borrower has obtained
private  mortgage  insurance  to reduce  the  effective  loan-to-value  ratio to
between  70% and 78%.  In those  two  instances,  the  principal  plus  negative
amortization cannot exceed 110% of the original loan amount.

     At March 31, 2002,  $6.7 billion of the  adjustable  rate  mortgages in our
loan  portfolio  were  subject to negative  amortization,  of which $166 million
represented the amount of negative amortization included in the loan balance.

     We also  continue to originate  residential  fixed  interest  rate mortgage
loans to meet  consumer  demand,  but we  intend to sell the  majority  of these
loans. We sold $1.381 billion of loans in the first quarter of 2002, compared to
$1.472 billion in the previous  quarter and $597 million in the first quarter of
2001. All were secured by residential  one-to-four  unit property,  and at March
31, 2002, loans held for sale totaled $388 million.

     At March 31, 2002,  our unfunded  loan  application  pipeline  totaled $1.3
billion.  Within that pipeline,  we had  commitments to borrowers for short-term
interest  rate locks of $660  million,  of which $289  million  were  related to
residential  one-to-four  unit loans being  originated for sale in the secondary
market.  Furthermore,  we had commitments on undrawn lines and letters of credit
of $89  million  and loans in process of $56  million.  We believe  our  current
sources of funds will enable us to meet these obligations.

     We carry  loans for sale at the lower of cost or fair  value.  At March 31,
2002, no valuation  allowance was required as the fair value exceeded book value
on an aggregate basis.

     At March 31, 2002, our  residential  one-to-four  units subprime  portfolio
consisted of  approximately  80% "A-"  credit,  17% "B" credit and 3% "C" credit
loans.  At March 31, 2002, the average  loan-to-value  ratio at origination  for
these loans was approximately 75%.

     We carry mortgage-backed securities available for sale at fair value which,
at March 31, 2002,  reflected an unrealized  loss of $2.9  million.  The current
quarter-end unrealized loss, less the associated tax effect, is reflected within
a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) until realized.

DEPOSITS

     At March 31, 2002,  our deposits  totaled $8.6 billion,  down slightly from
both the year-ago level and year-end 2001.  Compared to the year-ago period, our
certificates  of deposit  declined  $2.1 billion or 29.9%,  which was  partially
offset by an increase in our lower-rate  transaction  accounts--i.e.,  checking,
regular  passbook  and money  market--of  $2.0  billion,  more than  double  the
year-ago level. Within transaction  accounts,  approximately 99% of the increase
was in our passbook  accounts,  as depositors moved monies from  certificates of
deposit  because they seemed more  interested in liquidity  given the relatively
low level of interest  rates. At March 31, 2002, the average deposit size of our
traditional  branches was $105  million,  while the average size of our in-store
branches was $17 million,  or $21 million excluding the 18 new in-store branches
opened within the past 12 months.

BORROWINGS

     During the current  quarter,  our borrowings  declined $202 million to $1.3
billion,  due to a decrease in FHLB advances.  This followed an increase of $595
million during the fourth quarter of 2001.

     The following table sets forth information concerning our FHLB advances and
other borrowings at the dates indicated.

CAPITAL SECURITIES

     On July 23,  1999,  we issued $120  million in capital  securities  through
Downey  Financial  Capital  Trust  I.  The  capital   securities  pay  quarterly
cumulative  cash  distributions  at an annual rate of 10.00% of the  liquidation
value of $25 per share.  Interest expense on our capital  securities,  including
the  amortization  of deferred  issuance  costs,  was $3.0 million for the first
quarter of 2002.

ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT AND MARKET RISK

     Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse  changes in market  prices and
interest rates.  Our market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk in our
lending and deposit taking activities.  This interest rate risk primarily occurs
to the  degree  that our  interest-bearing  liabilities  reprice  or mature on a
different basis--generally more rapidly--than our interest-earning assets. Since
our  earnings  depend  primarily  on  our  net  interest  income,  which  is the
difference between the interest and dividends earned on interest-earning  assets
and the interest  paid on  interest-bearing  liabilities,  one of our  principal
objectives is to actively  monitor and manage the effects of adverse  changes in
interest  rates on net interest  income while  maintaining  asset  quality.  Our
primary strategy to manage interest rate risk is to emphasize the origination of
adjustable rate mortgages or loans with relatively  short  maturities.  Interest
rates on adjustable rate mortgages are primarily tied to COFI.

     In  addition  to the market  risk  associated  with our lending and deposit
taking  activities,  we also have  market  risk  associated  with our  secondary
marketing activities.  Changes in mortgage interest rates,  primarily fixed rate
mortgages,  impact  the  fair  value  of  loans  held  for  sale  as well as our
off-balance sheet commitments where we have committed to an interest rate with a
potential  borrower for a loan we intend to sell (known as an interest rate lock
derivative).  Our objective is to hedge against  fluctuations  in interest rates
through use of forward sale and  purchase  contracts  with  government-sponsored
enterprises and whole loan sale contracts with various parties.  These contracts
are typically  obtained at the time the interest rate lock commitments are made.
Therefore,  as interest  rates  fluctuate,  the changes in the fair value of our
interest  rate lock  commitments  and  loans  held for sale tend to be offset by
changes in the fair value of the hedge contracts.  Although we continue to hedge
as previously done, SFAS 133, as applied to our risk management strategies,  may
increase or decrease reported net income and stockholders' equity,  depending on
levels of  interest  rates  and other  variables  affecting  the fair  values of
derivative  instruments and hedged items, but will have no effect on the overall
economics of the transactions.

     Changes in mortgage  interest  rates also impact the value of our  mortgage
servicing  rights.  Rising interest rates typically result in slower  prepayment
speeds on the loans  being  serviced  for  others  which  increase  the value of
mortgage  servicing rights.  Declining interest rates typically result in faster
prepayment  speeds  which  decrease  the  value of  mortgage  servicing  rights.
Currently, we do not hedge our mortgage servicing rights against that risk.

     We currently do not enter into hedging contracts for speculative purposes.

     There has been no significant  change in our market risk since December 31,
2001.

                                       26



     One measure of our  exposure  to  differential  changes in  interest  rates
between assets and  liabilities is shown in the following table which sets forth
the repricing frequency of our major asset and liability  categories as of March
31, 2002,  as well as other  information  regarding  the  repricing and maturity
differences between our interest-earning  assets and total deposits,  borrowings
and capital  securities  in future  periods.  We refer to these  differences  as
"gap." We have  determined  the repricing  frequencies by reference to projected
maturities,   based  upon  contractual  maturities  as  adjusted  for  scheduled
repayments  and "repricing  mechanisms"--provisions  for changes in the interest
and dividend  rates of assets and  liabilities.  We assume  prepayment  rates on
substantially  all  of  our  loan  portfolio  based  upon  our  historical  loan
prepayment  experience and anticipated future prepayments.  Repricing mechanisms
on a number of our assets are subject to limitations, such as caps on the amount
that interest rates and payments on our loans may adjust, and accordingly, these
assets do not normally respond to changes in market interest rates as completely
or rapidly as our  liabilities.  The interest rate sensitivity of our assets and
liabilities  illustrated in the following table would vary  substantially  if we
used different assumptions or if actual experience differed from the assumptions
set forth.

     Our six-month gap at March 31, 2002 was a positive 18.02%.  This means that
more  interest-earning  assets  reprice  within six months than total  deposits,
borrowings and capital securities.  This compares to a positive six-month gap of
12.01% at December 31, 2001 and 19.74% at March 31, 2001.  We continue to pursue
our strategy of emphasizing the  origination of adjustable  rate mortgages.  For
the twelve  months  ended  March 31,  2002,  we  originated  and  purchased  for
investment $3.7 billion of adjustable rate loans which represented approximately
99% of all loans we originated and purchased for investment during the period.

     At March 31, 2002, 99% of our  interest-earning  assets mature,  reprice or
are estimated to prepay within five years,  unchanged from December 31, 2001 and
up  slightly  from 98% at March 31,  2001.  At March 31,  2002,  loans  held for
investment  and  mortgage-backed   securities  with  adjustable  interest  rates
represented  92% of those  portfolios.  During  the first  quarter  of 2002,  we
continued  to offer  residential  fixed  rate  loan  products  to our  customers
primarily for sale in the secondary  market.  We price and originate  fixed rate
mortgage loans for sale into the secondary  market to increase  opportunities to
originate  adjustable rate mortgages and to generate fees and servicing  income.
We also originate  fixed rate loans for portfolio to facilitate the sale of real
estate  acquired in settlement of loans and which meet specific  yield and other
approved guidelines.

     At March  31,  2002,  $9.4  billion  or 93% of our  total  loan  portfolio,
including  mortgage-backed  securities,  consisted  of  adjustable  rate  loans,
construction loans, and loans with a due date of five years or less, compared to
$9.3 billion or 91% at December  31, 2001,  and $9.4 billion or 91% at March 31,
2001.

PROBLEM LOANS AND REAL ESTATE

Non-Performing Assets

     Non-performing  assets consist of loans on which we have ceased the accrual
of interest,  which we refer to as non-accrual  loans,  loans  restructured at a
below market rate,  real estate  acquired in settlement of loans and repossessed
automobiles.  Non-performing  assets  increased  $1 million  during the  current
quarter to $94 million or 0.86% of total assets. This increase was primarily due
to a $2 million rise in commercial real estate  non-accrual loans as a result of
a shopping center loan whose principal  tenant  declared  bankruptcy  during the
quarter and ceased  paying rent.  Non-performing  assets at quarter end included
non-accrual loans aggregating $4 million which were not contractually  past due,
but were deemed  non-accrual  due to  management's  assessment of the borrower's
ability to pay.

Delinquent Loans

     Loans delinquent 30 days or more declined during the first quarter to 1.05%
at March 31, 2002,  from 1.10% at December 31, 2001, but were above the 0.73% of
a year ago. The decline  during the current  quarter  primarily  occurred in our
residential one-to-four units category.

Allowance for Losses on Loans and Real Estate

     We  maintain a valuation  allowance  for losses on loans and real estate to
provide for losses inherent in those  portfolios.  The adequacy of the allowance
is  evaluated  quarterly  by  management  to maintain  the  allowance  at levels
sufficient to provide for inherent losses.

     We adhere to an internal asset review system and loss allowance methodology
designed to provide  for timely  recognition  of problem  assets and an adequate
valuation  allowance to cover asset losses. The amount of the allowance is based
upon the summation of general valuation allowances,  allocated allowances and an
unallocated  allowance.  General  valuation  allowances relate to assets with no
well-defined  deficiency or weakness and takes into  consideration  loss that is
imbedded  within  the  portfolio  but  has  not  yet  been  realized.  Allocated
allowances  relate to  assets  with  well-defined  deficiencies  or  weaknesses.
Included in both these allowances are those amounts associated with assets where
it is probable that the recorded value of the asset declined and the loss can be
reasonably  estimated.  If we determine the carrying  value of our asset exceeds
its net fair value and no alternative  payment  source  exists,  then a specific
allowance  is  recorded  for the  amount  of that  difference.  The  unallocated
allowance  is  more   subjective   and  is  reviewed   quarterly  to  take  into
consideration  estimation  errors and economic  trends that are not  necessarily
captured in determining the general valuation and allocated allowances.

     Allowances  for losses on all assets  were $38  million at March 31,  2002,
compared to $39 million at December 31, 2001, and $37 million at March 31, 2001.

     Our provision  for loan losses was $1.4 million in the current  quarter and
exceeded our net loan  charge-offs  by $1.2 million  resulting in an increase in
the allowance  for loan losses to $37.3  million at March 31, 2002.  The current
quarter  allowance  increase  reflected an increase of $1.2 million in allocated
allowances due primarily to a commercial  real estate loan that became  impaired
during the quarter. There were no changes in our general valuation allowances or
our unallocated allowance of $2.8 million.

     The  following  table  summarizes  the activity in our  allowance  for loan
losses during the periods indicated.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

     Our sources of funds  include  deposits,  advances  from the FHLB and other
borrowings;  proceeds  from the sale of real estate,  loans and  mortgage-backed
securities;  payments of loans and  mortgage-backed  securities and payments for
and sales of loan servicing; and income from other investments.  Interest rates,
real estate sales activity and general economic conditions  significantly affect
repayments  on loans and  mortgage-backed  securities  and  deposit  inflows and
outflows.

     Our primary  sources of funds  generated in the first  quarter of 2002 were
from:

     o    principal repayments--including  prepayments, but excluding refinances
          of our existing loans--on loans and mortgage-backed securities of $786
          million;

     o    maturities and sales of U.S. Treasury  securities,  agency obligations
          and other  investment  securities  available for sale of $225 million;
          and

     o    a net decrease of our loans held for sale of $111 million.

     We used these funds for the following purposes:

     o    to  originate  and  purchase  loans  held  for  investment,  excluding
          refinances of our existing loans, of $851 million;

     o    to paydown our borrowings by $202 million; and

     o    to purchase U.S.  Treasury  securities,  agency  obligations and other
          investment securities available for sale of $75 million.

     Our principal source of liquidity is our ability to utilize borrowings,  as
needed.  Our primary  source of borrowings  is the FHLB. At March 31, 2002,  our
FHLB borrowings  totaled $1.3 billion,  representing  12.1% of total assets.  We
currently  are  approved by the FHLB to borrow up to 40% of total  assets to the
extent we provide  qualifying  collateral and hold sufficient  FHLB stock.  That
approved  limit  would  have  permitted  us,  as of  quarter  end,  to borrow an
additional $3.0 billion. To the extent deposit growth over the remainder of 2002
falls short of satisfying ongoing  commitments to fund maturing and withdrawable
deposits,  repay  maturing  borrowings,  fund  existing and future  loans,  make
investments,  and continue branch improvement programs, we will utilize our FHLB
borrowing  arrangement or possibly  other sources.  As of March 31, 2002, we had
commitments to borrowers for short-term rate locks of $660 million,  undisbursed
loan funds and unused  lines and  letters of credit of $145  million,  and other
contingent  liabilities of $3 million.  We believe our current  sources of funds
enable  us  to  meet  these  obligations  while  maintaining  our  liquidity  at
appropriate levels.

     Another  measure of liquidity in the savings and loan industry is the ratio
of  cash  and  eligible  investments  to the  sum of  withdrawable  savings  and
borrowings  due within one year.  At March 31, 2002,  the Bank's ratio was 3.9%,
compared to 4.3% at December 31, 2001 and 4.6% at March 31, 2001.

     The  holding  company  currently  has  liquid  assets,  including  due from
Bank--interest-bearing  balances, of $22 million and can obtain further funds by
means of  dividends  from  subsidiaries,  subject  to  certain  limitations,  or
issuance of further debt or equity.

     Stockholders'  equity  totaled $768 million at March 31, 2002, up from $734
million at December 31, 2001 and $649 million at March 31, 2001.

REGULATORY CAPITAL

     Our core and  tangible  capital  ratios were both 7.61% and our  risk-based
capital  ratio  was  15.39%.   The  Bank's   capital  ratios  exceed  the  "well
capitalized"  standards  of 5.00% for core  capital  and 10.00%  for  risk-based
capital, as defined by regulation.

     The following table is a reconciliation of the Bank's  stockholder's equity
to federal regulatory capital as of March 31, 2002.
