(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CSB Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Commercial and Savings Bank and CSB Investment Services, LLC (together referred to as the “Company” or “CSB”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2008, and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures typically included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted. The Annual Report for CSB for the year ended December 31, 2007, contains consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures, which should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or any future interim period.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which provides all entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The objective of the FAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply the complex provisions of hedge accounting. FAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 3 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (FAS NO. 157)
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FAS No. 157, which, among other things, requires enhanced disclosures about assets and liabilities carried at fair value. FAS No. 157 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels defined by FAS No. 157 hierarchy are as follows:
     
Level I:
  Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.
 
   
Level II:
  Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities include items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.
 
   
Level III:
  Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.
The following table presents the assets reported on the consolidated statements of financial condition at their fair value as of March 31, 2008 by level within the fair value hierarchy. No liabilities are carried at fair value. As required by FAS No. 157, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of CSB Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) at March 31, 2008 as compared to December 31, 2007, and the consolidated results of operations for the quarterly period ending March 31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The purpose of this discussion is to provide the reader with a more thorough understanding of the consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim consolidated financial statements and related footnotes.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

When used herein, the terms “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “believes”, and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or its management are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results, performance or achievements may materially differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause or contribute to such material differences include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, interest rate environment, competitive conditions in the financial services industry, changes in law, governmental policies and regulations, and rapidly changing technology affecting financial services.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets were $344.8 million at March 31, 2008, compared to $350.3 million at December 31, 2007, representing a decrease of $5.5 million or 1.6%. Cash and cash equivalents increased $12.6 million, or 103.3%, during the three-month period ending March 31, 2008, due to a $14.3 million increase in Federal funds sold and a $1.7 million decrease in cash and due from banks. Securities decreased $8.1 million or 10.9% during the first three months of 2008 primarily due to calls within the US Agency portfolio and principal repayments within the mortgage-backed securities portfolio. Net loans decreased $9.8 million, or 3.8%, while deposits decreased $12.4 million, or 4.8%, during the three-month period. Short-term borrowings of Federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreement and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings decreased $2.7 million, while other borrowings increased $7.9 million during the period as a $10 million investment leverage strategy was executed during the first quarter 2008.
Net loans decreased $9.8 million, or 3.8%, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2008. The credit card portfolio with outstanding balances of $2.2 million was sold during the quarter. The company recognized a net gain on the sale of $261,000. These cards represented less than 1% of loans outstanding. Additional loan balance decreases occurred due to a payoff of several rate sensitive commercial loans as very low fixed rate commercial loan rates were being offered within the Company’s market area. Consumer home equity lines recognized a $1.0 million or 4.9% balance increase for the quarter over December 31, 2007. The allowance for loan losses amounted to $2,691,000, or 1.09% of total loans at March 31, 2008 compared to $2,586,000 or 1.01% of total loans at December 31, 2007.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The increase in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans is attributed to the additional provision of $107,000 during the quarter, minimal net charge-offs of $2,100 for the quarter and the decline of outstanding loan balances. The Company continues to reflect improved credit quality with the reduction of non-performing loans and other real estate owned at March 31, 2008 in comparison to December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2007.

The ratio of gross loans to deposits was 100.0% at March 31, 2008, compared to 98.93% at December 31, 2007. The increase in this ratio is primarily the result of deposit shrinkage experienced during the three months ended March 31, 2008.
The Company had net unrealized gains of $270,000 within its securities portfolio at March 31, 2008, compared to net unrealized losses of $362,000 at December 31, 2007. Management has considered industry analyst reports, sector credit reports and the volatility within the bond market in concluding that the gross unrealized losses of $249,000 within the portfolio as of March 31, 2008, were primarily the result of customary and expected fluctuations in the bond market. As a result, all security impairments as of March 31, 2008, are considered temporary.
Management continues to evaluate the three (3) private label CMO’s held within the investment portfolio for any deterioration of investment quality. As of March 31, 2008, within this investment sector, the Company has $4.5 million current value investments, original face of $6.5 million, with gross unrealized losses of $62 thousand. All bonds are rated AAA on March 31, 2008, collateralized primarily by 1-4 family mortgage loans and borrowers in a wide geographical dispersion. All credit scores and loan to value ratios exceed sub prime status.
Short-term borrowings decreased $2.7 million from December 31, 2007 and other borrowings increased $7.9 million as the Company borrowed a $10 million in medium-term advances (1-4 years) from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) to fund $10 million in an investment leverage strategy.
Deposits decreased $12.4 million, or 4.8% from December 31, 2007 with non-interest bearing deposits declining $7.4 million and interest-bearing deposit accounts decreasing $5.0 million. By deposit type, increases were recognized only in money market savings accounts and term deposits greater than $100 thousand. The bank is subject to a first quarter seasonality decrease within its deposit accounts due to its commercial customer base reliance on logging, sawmills, and lumber as well as the tourism and lodging business. On a daily average, deposit balances decreased $4.7 million or 1.8% during the first quarter 2008 to $251.0 million declining from a daily average of $255.7 million for the fourth quarter 2007.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Total shareholders’ equity amounted to $37.1 million, or 10.8%, of total assets, at March 31, 2008, compared to $36.3 million, or 10.4% of total assets, at December 31, 2007. The increase in shareholders’ equity during the three months ended March 31, 2008 was due net income of $1,002,000 and an increase in unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities. These gains were partially offset by purchases of $113,000 of treasury shares and dividends declared of $439,000. The Company and its subsidiary bank met all regulatory capital requirements at March 31, 2008.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Company recorded net income of $1,002,000, or $0.41 per share, as compared to net income of $815,000, or $0.33 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The $187,000 increase in net income for the quarter was principally due to a $261,000 gain on the sale of the credit card portfolio, $124,000 increase in net interest income and an $48,000 increase in non-interest income. These gains were offset by a $29,000 increase in the provision for loan losses, a $109,000 increase in the federal income tax provision and a $109,000 increase in non-interest expenses.
Interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, was $5,283,000, representing a $137,000 increase, or 2.7%, compared to the same period in 2007. This increase was primarily due to an increase in loan volume and both investment volume and interest rate. Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 was $1,904,000, an increase of $13,000, or 0.7%, from the same period in 2007. The increase in interest expense occurred due to an increase in borrowing volume to support asset funding for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. During first quarter 2008, maturing time deposits renewed at interest rates that were lower.
The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, was $107,000, compared to a $78,000 provision for the same quarter in 2007. The provision for loan losses is determined based on management’s calculation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, which includes provisions for classified loans as well as for the remainder of the portfolio based on historical data including past charge-offs and current economic trends.
Non-interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, was $955,000, an increase of $309,000, or 47.9%, compared to the same quarter in 2007. This increase was primarily due to gain on the sale of the credit card portfolio of $261,000 while other increases in other core fees and services were recognized in service charges on deposit accounts of $12,000, Trust and brokerage fees of $19,000 and a $17,000 increase in debit card interchange income.
Non-interest expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, increased $109,000, or 4.1%, compared to the first quarter of 2007. An increase in occupancy and equipment expense results from a full quarter’s recognition of expenses in 2008 as compared to 2007 from the opening of a branch office in the Orrville, Ohio market in March 2007. Salaries and employee benefits increased $130,000, or 9.2%, primarily the result of increased salary levels due to merit increases, increased medical and retirement benefits and increased bonus accruals based on projections of incentive goals. Other expenses declined with reductions in postage, paper and printing, and telephone expense.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Federal income tax expense increased $109,000, or 28.0% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the first quarter of 2007. The provision for income taxes was $498,000 (effective rate of 33.2%) for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $389,000 (effective rate of 32.3%) for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase in the effective tax rate resulted from a decrease in tax-exempt interest income and increased income generated by the company.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Federal Reserve Board (FRB) has established risk-based capital guidelines that must be observed by financial holding companies and banks. Failure to meet specified minimum capital requirements could result in regulatory actions by the Federal Reserve or Ohio Division of Financial Institutions that could have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Management believes there were no material changes to Capital Resources as presented in CSB Bancorp’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, and as of March 31, 2008 the holding company and its bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity refers to the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash to fund current loan demand, meet deposit withdrawals, pay operating expenses and meet other obligations. The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, which totaled $24.8 million at March 31, 2008, an increase of $12.6 million from $12.2 million at December 31, 2007. Net income, securities available-for-sale, and loan repayments also serve as sources of liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents and estimated principal cash flow and maturities on investments maturing within one year represent 15.7% of total assets as of March 31, 2008 compared to 4.5% of total assets at year-end 2007. Other sources of liquidity include, but are not limited to, purchase of federal funds, advances from the FHLB, adjustments of interest rates to attract deposits, and borrowing at the Federal Reserve discount window. Management believes that its sources of liquidity are adequate to meet cash flow obligations for the foreseeable future.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements (as such term is defined in applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules) that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
