Yes.  It is showing the balance as of the block it is currently on.   It won't necessarily reflect your current balance until the block height reflects the current block (or more specifically the last block which contains a tx involving one of your addresses).  If you think about it, there is no way it could.  The client is scanning the blockchain looking for unspent outputs.  When it shows you have 1.2 BTC what it means is the sum of the value of all your unspent outputs is 1.2 BTC.  If it is on block X and you have an unspent output worth 0.3 BTC in block Y (where Y>X) it doesn't "know" about it yet.  When it reaches block Y that unspent output will be added to the wallet balance and the client will be updated to reflect 1.5 BTC.
