State of Oklahoma,  is a savings bank holding company that owns HCB Investments,
Inc.  ("HCBI") and HEARTLAND  Community  Bank and its  subsidiary  (the "Bank").
Bancshares'  business is primarily that of owning the Bank, and participating in
the Bank's  activities.  HCBI holds a $500,000  initial  investment in EastPoint
Technologies  LLC, which is the company whose core processing  software the Bank
utilizes.  The accompanying  condensed consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of Bancshares,  HCBI, and the Bank and are collectively referred to
as the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were
prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not
include  all  of the  information  required  by  generally  accepted  accounting
principles. The unaudited statements reflect all adjustments,  which are, in the
opinion  of  management,  necessary  for  fair  presentation  of  the  financial
condition  and  results  of  operations  and cash  flows of the  Company.  Those
adjustments  consist  only  of  normal  recurring  adjustments.   The  condensed
consolidated  statements of income and comprehensive income for the three months
ended September 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the  Company's  fiscal year ending June 30, 2003.  The unaudited
condensed  consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
for the year ended June 30, 2002,  contained in the  Company's  Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2002.

NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

     The weighted average number of common shares used to calculate earnings per
share for the periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, were as follows:

                                       ==========   ==========


     The Company has issued stock options that have the potential to be dilutive
to its weighted  average  shares  calculation,  and were  dilutive for the three
months ending  September 30, 2002 and 2001. In addition,  the Company has issued
MRP shares that have the potential to be dilutive to its weighted average shares
calculation, but were anti-dilutive for these three month periods.

NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     In the  ordinary  course of business,  the Company has various  outstanding
commitments   and  contingent   liabilities   that  are  not  reflected  in  the
accompanying  consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company may be
a defendant from time to time in certain claims and legal actions arising in the
ordinary course of business.  In the opinion of management,  after  consultation
with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to
have a material adverse effect on the consolidated  financial  statements of the
Company.

NOTE 4 - MONTICELLO BRANCH SALE

     On July 19, 2002, the Bank sold its Monticello branch to Simmons First Bank
of South Arkansas.  The sale included  approximately $8.3 million in loans, $1.5
million  in fixed  assets,  $0.2  million in other  assets and $13.2  million in
deposits.  The Bank recognized a premium on the deposits of  approximately  $0.9
million and the difference was paid in cash to the buyer.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     When used in this Form 10-Q,  the words or phrases  "will  likely  result,"
"are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated,"  "estimate,"  "project" or
similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within
the  meaning of the  Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform  Act of 1995.  Such
statements are subject to certain risks and  uncertainties  including changes in
economic  conditions  in the  Company's  market  area  changes  in  policies  by
regulatory  agencies,  fluctuations in interest  rates,  demand for loans in the
Company's market area, and competition that could cause actual results to differ
materially  from  historical   earnings  and  those  presently   anticipated  or
projected.  The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on
any such forward-looking  statements,  which speak only as of the date made. The
Company  wishes to advise readers that the factors listed above could affect the
Company's financial performance and could cause the Company's actual results for
future periods to differ  materially  from any opinions or statements  expressed
with respect to future periods in any current statements.

     The Company does not undertake,  and specifically disclaims any obligation,
to  publicly  release  the  result  of any  revisions  which  may be made to any
forward-looking  statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of
such  statements or to reflect the occurrence of  anticipated  or  unanticipated
events.

GENERAL

     The Bank's principal  business consists of attracting savings deposits from
the general public and investing those funds in loans secured by first mortgages
on existing owner-occupied single-family residences in the Bank's primary market
area,  commercial and multi-family real estate loans and consumer and commercial
business loans.  The Bank also maintains a substantial  investment  portfolio of
mortgage-related   securities,   nontaxable  municipal   securities,   and  U.S.
government and agency securities.

     The Bank's net income is dependent  primarily  on its net interest  income,
which  is  the  difference   between   interest  income  earned  on  its  loans,
mortgage-backed  securities  and  securities  portfolio  and  interest  paid  on
customers' deposits and other borrowings. The Bank's net income is also affected
by the level of  noninterest  income,  such as  service  charges  on  customers'
deposit  accounts,  net gains or losses on the sale of loans and  securities and
other fees.  In  addition,  net income is  affected by the level of  noninterest
expense, which primarily consists of employee compensation  expenses,  occupancy
expenses and other expenses.

     The  financial  condition  and  results of  operations  of the Bank and the
thrift  and  banking  industries  as  a  whole  are  significantly  affected  by
prevailing economic conditions, competition and the monetary and fiscal policies
of governmental  agencies.  Lending  activities are influenced by demand for and
supply of credit,  competition  among lenders and the level of interest rates in
the  Bank's  market  area.  The  Bank's  deposit  flows  and  costs of funds are
influenced  by  prevailing  market  rates of  interest,  primarily  on competing
investments, as well as account maturities and the levels of personal income and
savings in the Bank's market area.

AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST AND AVERAGE YIELDS AND RATES

     The following table sets forth information  regarding the Company's average
interest-earning  assets  and  interest-bearing  liabilities  and  reflects  the
average   yield   of   interest-earning   assets   and  the   average   cost  of
interest-bearing  liabilities for the periods  indicated.  Average  balances are
derived from daily balances. The table also presents information for the periods
indicated  with respect to the  difference  between the weighted  average  yield
earned  on  interest-earning  assets  and  the  weighted  average  rate  paid on
interest-bearing   liabilities,   or  "interest   rate  spread,"  which  savings
institutions have traditionally  used as an indicator of profitability.  Another
indicator  of an  institution's  net  interest  income  is  its  "net  yield  on
interest-earning  assets,"  which  is its net  interest  income  divided  by the
average balance of  interest-earning  assets. Net interest income is affected by
the interest rate spread and by the relative amounts of interest-earning  assets
and  interest-bearing  liabilities.  The yield on nontaxable  securities has not
been  adjusted  to a tax  equivalent  basis.  The  yield on  available  for sale
securities is based on amortized cost.  Loans on a nonaccrual basis are included
in the  computation  of the  average  balance  of loans  receivable.  Loan  fees
deferred and  accreted  into income are  included in interest  earned.  Whenever
interest-earning  assets  equal  or  exceed  interest-bearing  liabilities,  any
positive interest rate spread will generate net interest income.

RATE/VOLUME ANALYSIS

     The following  table analyzes  dollar amounts of changes in interest income
and  interest  expense  for major  components  of  interest-earning  assets  and
interest-bearing  liabilities.  The  table  distinguishes  between  (i)  changes
attributable  to volume  (changes  in volume  multiplied  by the prior  period's
rate),  (ii) changes  attributable  to rate  (changes in rate  multiplied by the
prior  period's  volume)  and (iii)  changes  in  rate/volume  (changes  in rate
multiplied by changes in volume).

COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND JUNE 30, 2002

     The  Company had  consolidated  total  assets of $260.9  million and $276.4
million at September 30, 2002, and June 30, 2002, respectively. During the three
month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company experienced a decrease in its
consolidated  loan  portfolio  from $124.2  million at June 30, 2002,  to $113.1
million at September 30, 2002. Of the $11.1  million  decrease,  $8.3 million is
due to the sale of loans in the Monticello branch sale.

     During  this  same  period,   investments  and  mortgage-backed  securities
increased  from $118.2  million at June 30, 2002, to $120.0 million at September
30, 2002.  While  investments  and  mortgage-backed  securities  increased  $1.8
million for the three month period  ended  September  30, 2002,  there were $5.9
million in paydowns  offset with  purchases  of $6.2  million and a $1.5 million
increase in the market value of the securities.

     Deposits  decreased from $165.0 million at June 30, 2002, to $150.2 million
at September 30, 2002. Of the $14.8  million  decrease,  $13.2 million is due to
the sale of deposits in the Monticello branch sale. Although the Bank's level of
deposits  has been  sufficient  to provide for adequate  liquidity,  the deposit
market  remains  competitive.   The  outstanding  balances  of  FHLB  borrowings
decreased from $82.3 million at June 30, 2002, to $80.0 million at September 30,
2002.

     Stockholders'  equity  amounted to $28.4 million at September 30, 2002, and
$26.7 million at June 30, 2002.  The changes in equity were  primarily due to an
increase  in  accumulated  other  comprehensive  income  and net  income for the
period.  At  September  30, 2002,  the Bank's  regulatory  capital  exceeded all
applicable regulatory capital requirements.

COMPARISON  OF RESULTS OF  OPERATIONS  FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED  SEPTEMBER 30,
2002 AND 2001

     Net Income.  Net income for the three months ended  September 30, 2002, was
approximately  $725,000  compared to net income of $285,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2001. The changes resulted primarily from an increase in net
interest income of $49,000, an increase in noninterest income of $753,000 offset
by an increase  in the  provision  for loan and  investment  loss of $30,000,  a
decrease  in the income tax benefit of  $295,000  and a increase in  noninterest
expense  of  $37,000.  The  specific  reasons  for  the  above  changes  and the
Monticello branch sale effect on net income are discussed below.

     Interest  Income.  Interest income for the three months ended September 30,
2002, was  approximately  $3,972,000,  or $729,000 less than interest income for
the three months ended  September 30, 2001.  The total average  interest-earning
assets  decreased $21.0 million,  while the yield decreased from 7.01% to 6.42%.
Of the  $729,000  decrease  in  interest  income,  $370,000  was  due to  volume
decreases in loans, $182,000 was due to rate decreases on loans, $98,000 was due
to rate decreases on taxable investment and mortgage-backed securities,  $62,000
was due to  volume  decreases  on  nontaxable  investments  and  mortgage-backed
securities,  $60,000  was due to rate  decreases  on FHLB  stock,  offset  by an
increase in the volume of taxable investments and mortgage-backed securities.

     For the three months ended September 30, 2002, compared to the three months
ended  September 30, 2001,  the average  balance of loans  receivable  decreased
$17.6 million,  total loan interest  income  decreased  $528,000 and the average
yield on loans decreased 54 basis points. For the same comparative  periods, the
average  balance  of  investments  and  mortgage-backed   securities  receivable
decreased $3.7 million, interest income decreased $141,000 and the average yield
decreased   30  basis   points.   Further,   the   average   balance   of  other
interest-earning  assets  (primarily  FHLB DDA's and FHLB stock)  increased $0.3
million,  interest income decreased  $60,000 and the average yield decreased 159
basis points.

     On July  19,  2002,  the Bank  sold its  Monticello  branch  that  included
approximately  $8.3 million in loans at a rate of  approximately  8.10  percent.
This  transaction  had the  effect of  reducing  average  loans  outstanding  by
approximately $6.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2002, and
reducing interest income by approximately $133,000 for the same period.

     Interest  Expense.  Total average  interest-bearing  liabilities  decreased
$17.2 million,  while the average  interest rate on such  liabilities  decreased
from 5.00% to 4.00%. The average balance of interest-bearing  deposits decreased
$7.4 million,  deposit interest expense decreased  $647,000 and the average cost
decreased 155 basis points.  The average balance of FHLB advances decreased $9.8
million, FHLB interest expense decreased $130,000 and the average cost increased
7 basis points.

     Of the  $778,000  decrease in interest  expense,  $86,000 was due to volume
decreases in deposits,  $589,000 was due to rate decreases on deposits, $145,000
was due to volume  decreases on FHLB advances,  offset by a $16,000 increase due
to rate increases on FHLB advances and the difference is an increase due to both
rate and volumes on deposits.

     On July  19,  2002,  the Bank  sold its  Monticello  branch  that  included
approximately $13.2 million in deposits at a rate of approximately 2.90 percent.
This  transaction  had the effect of reducing  average  deposits  outstanding by
approximately  $10.4 million  during the three months ended  September 30, 2002,
and reducing interest expense by approximately $75,000 for the same period.

     Net  Interest  Income.  Net  interest  income  for the three  months  ended
September 30, 2002, was $1.7 million,  or $49,000 more than net interest  income
for the three months  ended  September  30,  2001.  The increase in net interest
income for the three months  ended  September  30,  2002,  compared to the three
months ended  September 30, 2001,  was the result of an increase in our interest
rate spread of 41 basis  points.  This trend  reflects the  liability  sensitive
nature of the Company  which would,  keeping all other things  equal,  typically
show improved net interest income in a decreasing interest rate environment.

                                    Page 12


     Provision  for Loan and  Investment  Losses.  During the three months ended
September  30,  2002,  the  Bank's  management   continued  its  review  of  the
appropriateness  of the amount of the allowance for loan and investment  losses.
Based on these reviews, management made a total of $90,000 in provision for loan
losses for the three months ended  September  30, 2002.  The  allowance for loan
losses  of $1.6  million  at  September  30,  2002,  represented  1.38% of gross
outstanding loans which compares to 1.22% as of June 30, 2002. The provision was
made  in  consideration  of  reviews  of  individual  loans  and the  fact  that
nonperforming  loans as of  September  30,  2002,  as a percent  of total  loans
increased to 1.51% from 1.44% as of June 30, 2002. In addition, total classified
assets as a percent of the Bank's tangible  capital plus allowance for loan loss
was 35.9% as of September 30, 2002, which compares to 31.0% as of June 30, 2002.
As of  September  30,  2002,  the Bank had $8.7  million  in  assets  classified
substandard or doubtful as compared to $7.1 million as of June 30, 2002.

     Management evaluates the carrying value of the loan portfolio  periodically
and  provisions  are  made,  if  necessary.   While  management  uses  the  best
information  available to make  evaluations,  future provisions to the allowance
may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in
making the evaluations. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral
part of their examination process,  periodically review the Bank's allowance for
loan losses.  Such  agencies  may require the Bank to  recognize  changes to the
allowance based upon their  judgments and the  information  available to them at
the time of their examination.

     There were no significant changes in loan terms during the period, nor were
there  significant   changes  in  the  estimation   methodologies   employed  or
assumptions utilized. Nonperforming loan and loss trends did not indicate a need
to substantially modify loss experience factors during the period.

     Noninterest Income.  Noninterest income is typically comprised primarily of
gains on the sales of loans and service  charges on deposit  accounts.  However,
for the three months ended September 30, 2002, the Company  recognized a gain on
the sale of its Monticello branch of approximately $743,000.  Noninterest income
for the three months ended  September  30, 2002,  was  approximately  $1,128,000
compared to  approximately  $375,000 for the three months  ended  September  30,
2001.  This  increase of  approximately  $753,000 is primarily the result of the
$743,000 gain on the sale of the Monticello branch.

     Based  on the  average  for the six  months  ended  June  30,  2002,  it is
estimated that the sale of the Monticello  branch will result in approximately a
$49,000  decrease in  noninterest  income per quarter,  primarily  consisting of
service charges on deposit accounts.

     Noninterest  Expense.  The major  components  of  noninterest  expense  are
salaries and employee  benefits paid to or on behalf of the Company's  employees
and  directors,   professional   fees  paid  to  consultants,   attorneys,   and
accountants,  occupancy  expense for ownership and  maintenance of the Company's
buildings,   furniture  and  equipment  and  data  processing  expenses.   Total
noninterest  expense for the three months ended  September  30, 2002,  was $1.75
million compared to $1.72 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001.
Significant  components  of the increase in  noninterest  expense were a $33,000
increase  in  salaries  and  employee  benefits,  a  $17,000  increase  in  data
processing  expense, a $27,000 increase in professional fees, a $46,000 increase
in other  expenses,  offset by a $39,000  decrease in net occupancy  expense,  a
$15,000 decrease in  communication,  postage,  printing and office  supplies,  a
$19,000  decrease  in  amortization  of  goodwill  and  a  $13,000  decrease  in
advertising.

     Based  on the  average  for the six  months  ended  June  30,  2002,  it is
estimated that the sale of the Monticello  branch will result in approximately a
$93,000  decrease in noninterest  expense per quarter,  primarily as a result of
decreased salaries and employee benefits,  occupancy expense and data processing
expense.

     Income Taxes.  The effective income tax rates for the Company for the three
months ended  September  30, 2002 and 2001 were 27.2% and (9.2)%,  respectively.
The  variance in the  effective  rate from the  expected  statutory  rate is due
primarily to tax exempt interest.

     The negative  rate for fiscal three months ended  September  30, 2001, is a
net tax benefit and increases  net income.  The net tax benefit is primarily due
to tax exempt income. The corresponding  deferred tax asset totals approximately
$1.7 million as of September 30, 2002, and $1.7 million as of June 30, 2002. The
recoverability  of this asset is  entirely  contingent  upon the  production  of
taxable income for income tax reporting  purposes.  Management

                                    Page 13


anticipates  that the Company  will produce such income in the near future based
on management's current forecasts of earnings.

SOURCES OF CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY

     The Company has no business other than that of the Bank and banking related
activities. Bancshares' primary sources of liquidity are cash, dividends paid by
the Bank and earnings on investments and loans. In addition, the Bank is subject
to  regulatory   limitations  with  respect  to  the  payment  of  dividends  to
Bancshares.

     The Bank has historically  maintained  substantial  levels of capital.  The
assessment of capital  adequacy is dependent on several factors  including asset
quality,  earnings  trends,  liquidity and economic  conditions.  Maintenance of
adequate  capital levels is integral to provide  stability to the Bank. The Bank
needs to maintain  substantial  levels of regulatory  capital to give it maximum
flexibility in the changing regulatory  environment and to respond to changes in
the market and economic conditions.

     The Bank's primary sources of funds are savings  deposits,  borrowed funds,
proceeds  from  principal  and  interest  payments on loans and  mortgage-backed
securities,  interest  payments and  maturities  of  investment  securities  and
earnings.  While  scheduled  principal  repayments on loans and  mortgage-backed
securities  and  interest  payments on  investment  securities  are a relatively
predictable  source  of  funds,  deposit  flows  and  loan  and  mortgage-backed
securities  prepayments  are  greatly  influenced  by  general  interest  rates,
economic conditions, competition and other factors.

     At September  30, 2002 and June 30, 2002,  the Company had  designated  all
securities as available  for sale.  In addition to internal  sources of funding,
the Bank as a member of the FHLB, has substantial  borrowing  authority with the
FHLB.  The  Bank's  use of a  particular  source  of  funds  is  based  on need,
comparative total costs and availability.

     At  September  30,  2002,  the Bank  had $4.5  million  in  commitments  to
originate  loans  (including   unfunded  portions  of  construction  loans)  and
approximately  $1.1  million in unused  lines of credit.  At the same date,  the
total amount of  certificates  of deposit which were  scheduled to mature in one
year or less was $84.7 million.  Management  anticipates that the Bank will have
adequate  resources to meet its current  commitments  through  internal  funding
sources described above.

     Management is not aware of any current  recommendations  by its  regulatory
authorities,  legislation, competition, trends in interest rate sensitivity, new
accounting guidance or other material events and uncertainties that would have a
material effect on the Bank's ability to meet its liquidity demands.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

     The financial  statements and related  financial data presented herein have
been prepared in  accordance  with  instructions  to Form 10-Q which require the
measurement of financial  position and operating  results in terms of historical
dollars,  without considering changes in relative purchasing power over time due
to inflation.

     Unlike most  industrial  companies,  virtually all of the Bank's assets and
liabilities  are  monetary in nature.  As a result,  changes in  interest  rates
generally  have  a  more  significant   impact  on  a  financial   institution's
performance than do changes in the rate of inflation.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     For a discussion of the Company's asset and liability  management  policies
as well as the  potential  impact of interest rate changes upon the market value
of the Bank's portfolio equity, see "MARKET RISK" in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2002. There has been no material change
in the Company's asset and liability position since June 30, 2002.

                                    Page 14


ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     The Company's  Chief  Executive  Officer and Chief  Financial  Officer have
reviewed and evaluated the  effectiveness of the Company's  disclosure  controls
and  procedures  (as  defined  in 15 C.  F. R. '  240.13a-14(c)  and 15 C. F. R.
'240.15-14(c))  as of a date  within  ninety  days  prior to the  filing of this
quarterly  report.  Based upon that evaluation,  the Chief Executive Officer and
Chief  Financial  Officer have concluded that the Company's  current  disclosure
controls and procedures are effective.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS

     There were no significant  changes in the Company's internal controls or in
other factors that could  significantly  affect those controls subsequent to the
date of evaluation.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION
          -----------------

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

commitments   and  contingent   liabilities   that  are  not  reflected  in  the
accompanying  consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company may be
a defendant in certain claims and legal actions  arising in the ordinary  course
of  business.  In the  opinion  of  management,  after  consultation  with legal
counsel,  the ultimate  disposition  of these  matters is not expected to have a
material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

                                  CERTIFICATION


I, Scott A. Swain, certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of HCB Bancshares, Inc.;

2.   Based on my knowledge,  this  quarterly  report does not contain any untrue
     statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact  necessary to
     make the statements  made, in light of the  circumstances  under which such
     statements  were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by
     this quarterly report;

3.   Based on my  knowledge,  the  financial  statements,  and  other  financial
     information  included  in this  quarterly  report,  fairly  present  in all
     material respects the financial  condition,  results of operations and cash
     flows of the  registrant  as of, and for,  the  periods  presented  in this
     quarterly report;

4.   The  registrant's  other  certifying  officers  and I are  responsible  for
     establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
     in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the registrant and we have:

     a)   designed  such  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  to ensure  that
          material  information  relating  to  the  registrant,   including  its
          consolidated subsidiaries,  is made known to us by others within those
          entities,  particularly  during  the  period in which  this  quarterly
          report is being prepared;

     b)   evaluated the  effectiveness of the registrant's  disclosure  controls
          and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of
          this quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date"); and

     c)   presented  in  this  quarterly   report  our  conclusions   about  the
          effectiveness  of the disclosure  controls and procedures based on our
          evaluation as of the Evaluation Date;

5.   The registrant's other certifying  officers and I have disclosed,  based on
     our most recent  evaluation,  to the  registrant's  auditors  and the audit
     committee of  registrant's  board of directors (or persons  performing  the
     equivalent function):

     a)   all  significant  deficiencies  in the design or operation of internal
          controls  which could  adversely  affect the  registrant's  ability to
          record,  process,   summarize  and  report  financial  data  and  have
          identified for the  registrant's  auditors any material  weaknesses in
          internal controls; and

     b)   any fraud, whether or not material,  that involves management or other
          employees who have a  significant  role in the  registrant's  internal
          controls; and

6.   The  registrant's  other  certifying  officers and I have indicated in this
     quarterly report whether or not there were significant  changes in internal
     controls  or in other  factors  that could  significantly  affect  internal
     controls  subsequent to the date of our most recent  evaluation,  including
     any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material
     weaknesses.
