Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

General

MutualFirst Financial, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), was organized in September 1999. On December 29, 1999, it acquired the common stock of Mutual Federal Savings Bank ("Mutual Federal") upon the conversion of Mutual Federal from a federal mutual savings bank to a federal stock savings bank.

Mutual Federal was originally organized in 1889 and currently conducts its business from seventeen full service offices located in Delaware, Randolph, Grant, and Kosciusko counties, Indiana, with its main office located in Muncie. Mutual Federal's principal business consists of attracting deposits from the general public and originating fixed rate and adjustable rate loans secured primarily by first mortgage liens on one-to four-family residential real estate as well as commercial real estate and loans on consumer goods. Mutual Federal's deposit accounts are insured up to applicable limits by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) of the FDIC.

Mutual Federal currently owns two subsidiaries, First MFSB Corporation and Third MFSB Corporation. The assets of First MFSB Corporation consist of an investment in Family Financial Life Insurance Company. Family Financial is an Indiana stock insurance company that primarily engages in retail sales of mortgage and credit life insurance products in connection with loans originated by its shareholder financial institutions. Third MFSB, which does business as Mutual Financial Services, offers tax deferred annuities and long term health and life insurance products. All securities-related products and services made available through Mutual Financial Services are offered by a third party independent broker-dealer.

The Company's results of operations depend primarily on the level of net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investments, and costs incurred with respect to interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and borrowings. Results of operations also depend upon the level of the Company's non-interest income, including fee income and service charges, and the level of its non-interest expense, including general and administrative expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies

The notes to the consolidated financial statements contain a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies presented on pages 22 and 23 of the Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2001. Certain of these policies are important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Management believes that its critical accounting policies include determining the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of foreclosed assets and real estate held for development and the valuation of intangible assets.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is a significant estimate that can and does change based on management's assumptions about specific borrowers and current general economic and business conditions, among other factors. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on at least a quarterly basis. The evaluation by management includes consideration of past loss experience, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, the current condition and amount of loans outstanding, identified problem loans and the probability of collecting all amounts due.

The determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the economic environment and market conditions. A worsening or protracted economic decline would increase the likelihood of additional losses due to credit and market risk and could create the need for additional loss reserves.

Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs. Management estimates the fair value of the properties based on current appraisal information. Fair value estimates are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the economic environment, market conditions, and real estate market. A worsening or protracted economic decline would increase the likelihood of a decline in property values and could create the need to write down the properties through current operations.

Intangible Assets

The Company periodically assesses the impairment of its goodwill and the recoverability of its core deposit intangible. Impairment is the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds it implied fair value. If actual external conditions and future operating results differ from the Company's judgments, impairment and/or increased amortization charges may be necessary to reduce the carrying value of these assets to the appropriate value.

Forward Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q") contains statements which constitute forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements may appear in a number of places in this Form 10-Q and include statements regarding the intent, belief, outlook, estimate or expectations of the company, its directors or its officers primarily with respect to future events and the future financial performance of the company. Readers of this Form 10-Q are cautioned that any such forward looking statements are not guarantees of future events or performance and involve risk and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those in the forward looking statements as a result of various factors. The accompanying information contained in this Form 10-Q identifies important factors that could cause such differences. These factors include changes in interest rate; the loss of deposits and loan demand to other financial institutions; substantial changes in financial markets; changes in real estate values and the real estate market; or regulatory changes.

Financial Condition

Assets totaled $784.5 million at September 30, 2002, an increase of $15.2 million from $769.3 million at December 31, 2001. The primary reason for the increase was an $11.3 million increase in loans, including loans held for sale, from $653.6 million at December 31, 2001 to $665.0 million at September 30, 2002. Also, investment securities available for sale increased $10.9 million from $31.6 million at December 31, 2001 to $42.5 million at September 30, 2002. These increases were partially offset by a reduction of cash and cash equivalents from $30.6 million at December 31, 2001, to $22.6 million at September 30, 2002 to help fund the increases in loans and investments. Excluding loans held for sale, the real estate mortgage loan portfolio decreased $6.4 million during the period. Consumer loans increased $15.9 million and commercial business loans increased $6.9 million.

Allowance for loan losses increased $1.2 million from $5.4 million at December 31, 2001 to $6.6 million at September 30, 2002. The Company determined to increase its allowance primarily due to an increase in classified commercial and one- to four- family real estate loans. This was partially accomplished through the
