Quarterly Report for the Fiscal Quarter Ended

December 31, 2021

This Quarterly Report provides an update to the Annual Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Accordingly, it does not contain all the information required to meet the annual disclosure obligations and should be reviewed in conjunction with the Annual Report. This report has been compiled to fulfill the disclosure requirements of the OTC Market Group, Inc. ("OTC") and the sequential Items contained herein correspond to the sequential format of the OTC disclosure guidelines.

On February 26, 2021, California First National Bancorp completed the sale of California First National Bank ("Bank"), merged its California First Leasing subsidiary into itself and changed its name to "California First Leasing Corporation" (the "Company" or "CalFirstLease").

Statements made in this report that are not strictly historical in nature constitute "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements involve management assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Such statements include, but are not limited to, beliefs regarding projected changes in lease originations and in the lease and loan portfolio, the credit quality of the lease and loan portfolio, the adequacy of reserves for credit losses, investments in equity securities, swings in stock prices and the potential for this to cause significant volatility in reported net earnings, the impact of external events on business activities and opportunities, estimates of expected tax rates applicable to future periods, impact of changes in interest rates and equity and fixed income markets. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include political, economic, business, competitive, market, regulatory and other risks, including the future impact of the novel coronavirus disease ("COVID-19") outbreak and measures taken in response to it for which future developments are highly uncertain and difficult to predict. Consequently, if management assumptions prove to be incorrect or such risks or uncertainties materialize, the Company's actual results could differ materially from the results forecast in the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement, and the Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update this information to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date hereof (January 27, 2022).
