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

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of CSB Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) at September 30, 2007 as compared to December 31, 2006, and the consolidated results of operations for the quarterly period ending September 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. 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.

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 $330.1 million at September 30, 2007, compared to $327.2 million at December 31, 2006, representing an increase of $2.9 million or 0.9%. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $6.4 million, or 36.1%, during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2007, due to a $1.4 million decrease in cash and due from banks and a $5.0 million decrease in Federal funds sold. Securities decreased $4.1 million or 5.8% during the first nine months of 2007 primarily due to maturities and principal repayments. Net loans increased $13.2 million, or 5.8%, while deposits decreased $6.6 million, or 2.5%, during the nine-month period. Short-term borrowings of Federal funds purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreement and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings increased $3.8 million, while other borrowings increased $4.6 million during the period as a liquidity source to cover loan demand and decreased deposit balances.

Net loans increased $13.2 million, or 5.8%, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007. This increase was due to a combination of increased loan demand and production within the Company’s market area. The increase in balances was concentrated in commercial loans of $9.6 million and mortgage loans of $5.2 million, with a decline in consumer credit balances of $1.6 million. The allowance for loan losses amounted to $2,554,000, or 1.04% of total loans at September 30, 2007 compared to $2,607,000 or 1.12% of total loans at December 31, 2006.

CSB BANCORP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The decrease in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans is attributed to both loan growth and the recognition of losses during the period. The components of the change in the allowance for loan losses during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, included a provision of $354,000 and net loan charge-offs of $459,000. Loans past due more than 90 days and still accruing interest, and loans placed on nonaccrual status, aggregated $1,092,000, or 0.44% of total loans at September 30, 2007, compared to $1,509,000 or 0.65% of total loans at December 31, 2006.

The ratio of gross loans to deposits was 96.9%, compared to 89.3% at December 31, 2006. The increase in this ratio is due to loan growth coupled with deposit shrinkage experienced during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

The Company had net unrealized losses of $568,000 within its securities portfolio at September 30, 2007, compared to net unrealized losses of $884,000 at December 31, 2006. Management has considered industry analyst reports, sector credit reports and the volatility within the bond market in concluding that the gross unrealized losses of $647,000 within the portfolio as of September 30, 2007, were primarily the result of customary and expected fluctuations in the bond market. As a result, all security impairments as of September 30, 2007, are considered temporary.

As of September 30, 2007, Management evaluated the three (3) private label CMO’s held within the investment portfolio for loans to borrowers with low FICO scores. Within this investment sector, the Company has $4.7 million current value investments, original face of $6.5 million, with gross unrealized losses of $28 thousand. All bonds are rated AAA on September 30, 2007, 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 increased $3.8 million from December 31, 2006 and other borrowings increased $4.6 million as the Company borrowed a $5 million longer-term advance from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”).

Total shareholders’ equity amounted to $35.9 million, or 10.9%, of total assets, at September 30, 2007, compared to $35.1 million, or 10.7% of total assets, at December 31, 2006. The increase in shareholders’ equity during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was due net income of $2,634,000 and a decrease in unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities. These gains were partially offset by purchases of $654,000 of treasury shares and dividends declared of $1,330,000. The Company and its subsidiary bank met all regulatory capital requirements at September 30, 2007.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006

For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the Company recorded net income of $863,000, or $0.35 per share, as compared to net income of $814,000, or $0.32 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The $49,000 increase in net income for the quarter was principally due to a $96,000 increase in net interest income and an $86,000 increase in non-interest income. These gains were offset by a $76,000 increase in the provision for loan losses, a $38,000 increase in the federal income tax provision and a $18,000 increase in non-interest expenses.

CSB BANCORP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, was $5,418,000, representing a $262,000 increase, or 5.1%, compared to the same period in 2006. This increase was primarily due to an increase in loan volume and interest rates. Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was $2,028,000, an increase of $166,000, or 8.9%, from the same period in 2006. The increase in interest expense occurred due to an increase in average rates paid across the board on deposits, while borrowing rates declined from 4.37% to 4.24% for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. During third quarter 2007, lower rate maturing time deposits renewed at interest rates that are currently higher. Additionally, some customers continue to shift funds from lower yielding deposits to higher yielding time deposits.

The provision for loan losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, was $151,000, compared to a $75,000 provision for the same quarter in 2006. 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 September 30, 2007, was $762,000, an increase of $86,000, or 12.7%, compared to the same quarter in 2006. This increase was primarily due to increases in Trust and brokerage fees of $53,000 a result of increased asset values and fees and a $30,000 increase in debit card interchange income. These gains were partially offset by a reduction of $10,000 in other credit card fee income.

Non-interest expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, increased $18,000, or 0.7%, compared to the third quarter of 2006. This increase was due in part to increased occupancy and equipment expenses from opening a new branch office in the Orrville, Ohio market as well as a complete remodeling of the South Clay Street office in Millersburg to accommodate the consolidation and closing of 6 West Jackson Street. Other increases in expenses were recorded in marketing and an ATM debit card vendor conversion in the third quarter of 2007. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $52,000, or 3.3%, primarily the result of increased third quarter 2006 bonus accruals. Professional and directors fees decreased due to a lower number of outside directors as well as reduced fees payable to a third party vendor in connection with the overdraft privilege program.

Federal income tax expense increased $38,000, or 10.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the third quarter of 2006. The provision for income taxes was $416,000 (effective rate of 32.5%) for the three months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $378,000 (effective rate of 31.7%) for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase in the effective tax rate resulted from a decrease in tax-exempt interest income as a portion of total income before income taxes.

Nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006

Net income for the nine months ending September 30, 2007, was $2,634,000, or $1.07 per share, as compared to $2,264,000 or $0.89 per share during the same period in 2006. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.08% and 9.92%, respectively, for the nine-month period of 2007, compared to .95% and 8.69%, respectively for 2006.

Net interest income increased $59,000 or 0.6% to $9,920,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 s compared to the same period in 2006. Comparative net income grew because of an equivalent increase in non-interest income of $331,000 and a $331,000 decrease in non-interest expenses compared to the same period in 2006. The improvements in net income were partially offset by an increase to the provision to loan losses of $132,000.

CSB BANCORP, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, was $15,853,000 an increase of $982,000 or 6.6% from the same period in 2006. Interest income on loans increased $1,138,000, or 9.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to the same period in 2006. This increase was primarily due to an increase in average gross loan balances of $15.6 million coupled with an interest rate increase of 16 basis points for the comparable nine-month periods. Interest income on securities decreased $166,000, or 6.4%, as average investment balances decreased $8.1 million.

Interest expense increased $923,000 to $5,933,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Interest expense on deposits increased $883,000, or 22.8%, from the same period as last year, while interest expense on other borrowings increased $40,000 or 3.6%. The increase in interest expense has been caused by higher interest rates being paid across the board on interest-bearing deposit accounts and short-term borrowings. Lower rate time deposits continue to renew at higher interest rates and some depositors have moved monies from lower yielding saving instruments to higher rate short-term time deposits and the competition for deposits continues to increase. The net interest margin declined by 10 basis points for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, to 4.36%, from 4.46% for the same period in 2006.

The provision for loan losses was $354,000 during the first nine months of 2007, compared to $222,000 in the same nine-month period of 2006. The provision or credit 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 increased $331,000, or 16.7%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to the same period in 2006. The increase in non-interest income was partially due to the recovery of an insurance claim of $187,000 resulting from a prior period cash irregularity. Trust and brokerage fees increased $152,000, or 38.8%, from the same period in 2006 while service charges on deposits declined $50,000 or 5.1% as customers used the overdraft privilege product less frequently in 2007 as compared to 2006, following the product’s introduction.

Non-interest expenses decreased $331,000, or 4.0%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006. The cash irregularity of $237,000 occurred during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $132,000, or 3.0%, primarily due to managerial staff decreases during 2007 and lower overall bonuses paid during the first quarter of 2007. Professional and directors fees decreased due to a lower number of outside directors as well as reduced fees payable to a third party vendor in connection with the overdraft privilege program. Occupancy and telephone expense have increased during the first nine-months of 2007 as compared with 2006 due to the opening of the Orrville area branch and remodeling and consolidation of the Millersburg downtown offices.

The provision for income taxes was $1,255,000 (effective rate of 32.3%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $1,035,000 (effective rate of 31.4%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase in the effective tax rate resulted from a decrease in tax-exempt interest income as a portion of total income before income taxes.

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

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, 2006, and as of September 30, 2007 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 $11.3 million at September 30, 2007, a decrease of $6.4 million from $17.7 million at December 31, 2006. 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 9.6% of total assets as of September 30, 2007 compared to 6.3% of total assets at year-end 2006. 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.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

During the first nine months of 2007, the Company’s contractual obligations have not changed materially from those discussed in the Company’s Annual Report of Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The Standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. FAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

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

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS-(continued)

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. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007 provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. FIN 48 is an interpretation of FAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, and it seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of measurement and recognition in accounting for income taxes. In addition, FIN No. 48 requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s results of operations.
