      NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Community Federal Bancorp, Inc. (The "Company") was incorporated
in the State of Delaware on November 22, 1995, for the purpose of
becoming a holding company to own all of the outstanding capital
stock of Community Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), an existing
Stock Bank which was 100% owned by Community Federal Mutual
Holding Company (the "MHC").  Upon the conversion from a
federally chartered mutual holding company form of organization
to a federally chartered stock savings association (the
"Conversion"), the MHC was dissolved.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements as of June 30, 1999, and for the three  and nine month
periods then ended, include the accounts of the Company and the
Bank.  All significant intercompany transactions and accounts
have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared by
the company without an audit, but in the opinion of management,
reflect all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of
financial position and results of operations for the three and
nine month periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.  Results of
operations for the current interim period are not necessarily
indicative of results expected for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1999.  While certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have
been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange commission, management believes
that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading.  These condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
September 30, 1998.  The accounting policies followed by the Bank
are set forth in the summary of significant accounting policies
in the Bank's September 30, 1998 consolidated financial
statements.

2.  STOCK CONVERSION

On March 14, 1996, the Conversion to a federally chartered stock
savings bank through amendment of its charter, dissolution of the
MHC, and issuance of common stock to the company was completed.
Related thereto, the Company sold 4,628,750 shares of common
stock, par value $.01 per share, at an initial price of $10 per
share in subscription and community offerings.  Costs associated
with the Conversion were approximately $1,300,000 including
underwriting fees.  These conversion costs were deducted from the
gross proceeds of the sale of the common stock.


                               5

<PAGE>

In connection with the Conversion, the Company has established an
employee stock ownership plan (the "ESOP").  The ESOP purchased
approximately 8%, or 363,200 shares, of the total shares of
common stock sold.  The company lent $3,632,000 to the ESOP for
the purchase of the shares of common stock.  Unearned
compensation for the ESOP was charged to stockholders' equity and
is reduced ratably in connection with principal payments under
the terms of the Plan.


The Management Recognition and Retention Plan Trust and the Stock
Option Plan (the "Plans") were approved by shareholders and was
effective April 1, 1997. Under the Management Recognition and
Retention Plan ("MRP"), employees and directors could be awarded
an aggregate amount of shares of common stock equal to 4% of the
shares issued in the Conversion (185,150 shares of common stock).
The aggregate fair market value of the shares purchased by the
MRP is considered unearned compensation at the time of purchase
and compensation is earned ratably over the stipulated vesting
period.  Under the Company's Stock Option Plan,  employees and
directors could be granted options to purchase an aggregate
amount of shares of common stock equal to 10% of the shares
issued in the Conversion (462,875 shares of common stock) at
exercise prices equal to the market price of the common stock on
the date of grant.  The Company accounts for the Stock Option
Plan under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share were computed by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
during the three and nine months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.
Common stock outstanding consists of issued shares less treasury
stock, unallocated ESOP shares, and shares owned by the MRP and
Stock option plan trust.  Diluted earnings per share for the
three and nine months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, were computed
by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares
of common stock and the dilutive effect of the shares awarded
under the MRP and Stock Option plans, based on the treasury stock
method using an average fair market value of the stock during the
respective periods.

4.  PENDING ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The AICPA has issued Statements of Position 98-1, Accounting for
the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal
Use.  This statement requires capitalization of external direct
costs of materials and services; payroll and payroll-related
costs for employees directly associated; and interests costs
during development of computer software for internal use
(planning and preliminary costs should be expensed).  Also,
capitalized costs of computer software developed or obtained for
internal use should be amortized on a straight-line basis unless
another systematic and rational basis is more representative of
the software's use.

This statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1998 (prospectively) and is
not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated
financial statements.

The AICPA has issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5 Reporting
on Cost of Start-up-Activities.  This SOP provides guidance on
the financial reporting of start-up cost and organization costs.
It requires cost of start-up activities and organization cost to
be expensed as incurred and the initial application of this SOP
should be reported as the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle.  This SOP is effective for financial
statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998.
Earlier application is encouraged in fiscal years for which
annual financial statements previously have not been issued.
Management does not believe that the adoption of this statement
will have a material impact on the presentation of the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.

                             8

In October 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 134, Accounting for Mortgage Backed Securities
Retained After the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale
by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise.  This Statement, an amendment
to SFAS No. 65, requires that after the securitization of
mortgage loans held for sale, an entity engaged in mortgage
banking activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed
securities or other retained interest based on its ability to
sell or hold those investments.  This Statement is effective for
first fiscal quarter beginning after December 15, 1998.  The
Company adopted the provisions of this Statement on January 1,
1999.  Based on the Company's current operating activities, the
adoption of this Statement did not have a impact on the
presentation of the Company's financial condition or results of
operations.

In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137 Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133.  This statement delays
the effective date of Statement 133 from fiscal quarters of all
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999, with earlier
application encouraged to fiscal quarters of all fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000.

5.  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The Company adopted SFAS No 130 October 1, 1998 SFAS No. 130
established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components.

The Company has classified certain securities as available for
sale in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board
Statement No. 115. For the three month period ended June 30, 1999
the net unrealized gain on these securities decreased by $1.6
million and increased $369,000 for the same period in 1998.  For
the nine month periods ended June 30, 1999, the net unrealized
gain on these securities decreased by $1.3 million and increased
$3.8 million for the same period in 1998.  Pursuant to Statement
No. 115, any unrealized gain or loss activity of available for
sale securities is to be recorded as an adjustment to a separate
component of shareholder's equity, net of income tax effect.
Accordingly, for the three and nine month periods ended June 30,
1999 and 1998, the Company recognized a corresponding adjustment
in the net unrealized gain component of equity.

                               9
<PAGE>

Since comprehensive income is a measure of all changes in equity
of an enterprise that result from transactions and other economic
events of the period, this change in unrealized gain serves to
increase or decrease comprehensive income.  The following table
represents comprehensive income for the three and nine month
periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998:

6.  COMMITMENTS and CONTINGENCIES

On January 21, 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved
the Key Employee Retention Plan for certain officers and  the
Severance Pay Plan for substantially all employees of the Company
and the Bank.  Under the provisions of the Plan, the Company
could be continently liable to the employees if an employee is
terminated within one year after a change of control of the
Company.  As of June 30, 1999, the amount the Company could be
continently liable would be approximate $295,000.


7. SALE OF BANK

The Company and First M&F Corp. Of Kosciusko, MS, have signed a
definitive agreement for First M&F Corp. to acquire Community
Federal Bancorp, and its subsidiary, Community Federal Bank.
Under the terms of the Agreement, First M&F will issue .2855
share of its common stock (subject to adjustment under certain
circumstances) plus $8.8457 of cash for each share of Community
Federal common stock.  The transaction, which will be accounted
for as a purchase, should be a tax-free exchange relative to the
stock received and is subject to the approval of the stockholders
of First M&F Corp. and Community Federal and regulatory
authorities.

Part 1
Item 2

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS

On March 25, 1996, Community Federal Bancorp, Inc. (The
"Company") completed the sale of 4,628,750 shares of its common
stock in an initial public offering at a price of $10.00 and
simultaneously acquired the shares of common stock of Community
Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank") in connection with the mutual
to stock conversion (the "Conversion").  Costs associated with
the conversion were approximately $1,300,000.  Prior to March 25,
1996, the Company had not issued any stock, had no assets or
liabilities, and had not engaged in any business activities other
than of an organizational nature.

Comparisons of Financial Conditions at June 30, 1999 and
September 30, 1998

Total assets increased by $33.4 million, or 12.1%, from $275.3
million at September 30, 1998 to $308.7 million at June 30, 1999.
The increase in total assets was primarily attributed to a $30
million increase in securities available for sale and a $3.7
million increase in cash and cash equivalents. These increases
were primarily funded by approximately $27 million in additional
FHLB Advances.

Equity increased $688,000 since September 30, 1998, which was
primarily attributed to $2.3 million in net income for the nine
month period, a decrease of $672,000 in unearned compensation,
offset by a decrease of $570,000 in unrealized gain on securities
available for sale, the purchase of $785,000 in treasury stock
and the declaration of dividends of $1,088,000.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998

The company reported net income for the three months ended June
30, 1999 of $805,000 as compared to $886,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1998.  The decrease in income for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 was due mainly to an increase in other
operating expense.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 amounted to $1.8 million as compared
to $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998.  Total
interest income increased $454,000 during the quarter ended June
30, 1999 as compared to the same three month period of the prior
year.  This increase resulted primarily from increased interest
and fees on the higher average balance in interest earning
assets. Total interest expense increased $374,000 during the
third quarter 1999 compared to the same three month period of the
previous year.  The main reason for this increase is due to an
increase in interest expense associated with FHLB advances to
fund the growth in interest earning assets.

                              11
<PAGE>

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income increased $10,000 from $481,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 to $491,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1999.  This increase was due to a $13,000 increase in
deposit fees, a $28,000 increase in loan fees, offset by a
$31,000 decrease in other income.                  .

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased $176,000 from $851,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 to $1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1999.  The main reason for this increase
was related to compensation expense, office occupancy and
equipment expense.

Provision for Income Tax

Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 1999
increased $8,000 to $482,000 as compared to income tax expense of
$474,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998.


Comparisons of Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998.

The Company reported net income for the nine months ended June
30, 1999 of $2,312,000 as compared to $2,280,000 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1998, an increase of $32,000.  The increase
in income for the nine months ended June 30, 1999 was due mainly
to an increase in non-interest income.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the nine
months ended June 30, 1999 amounted to $5.4 million as compared
to $5.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1998.  Total
interest income increased $1.8 million during the nine months
ended June 30, 1999 as compared to the same nine month period of
the prior year.  This increase resulted primarily from increased
interest and fees on the higher average balances in interest
earning assets.  Total interest expense for the nine month period
ended June 30, 1999 increased $1.6 million compared to the same
nine month period of the prior year.  The above resulted from the
increase in FHLB advances to fund the growth in interest earning
assets.

Provisions for Loan Losses

A $62,500 provision for loan losses was made during the nine
months ended June 30, 1999 to correspond with the volume in the
mortgage and consumer loan portfolio, compared to the $55,000
provision made during the nine months ended June 30, 1998.  This

                              12

<PAGE>

adjustment reflects management's estimates which took into
account historical experience, the amount of nonperforming
assets, and general economic conditions.


Noninterest Income

Non-interest Income increased $358,000 from $915,000 for the nine
months ended June 30, 1998 to $1.3 million for the nine months
ended June 30, 1999.  This increase was due to increased fee
income and gain on the sale of securities available for sale.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased by $485,000 from $2.6 million for
the nine months ended June 30, 1998 to $3.1 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 1999.  The increase was primarily due to an
increase in compensation expense and office occupancy and
equipment expense.

Capital Resources

The Bank's primary sources of funds are customer deposits,
repayments of loan principal, and interest from loans and
investments.  While scheduled principal repayments on loans and
mortgage-backed securities are relatively predictable source of
funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced
by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.
The Bank manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a
desired deposit balance.  In addition, the Bank invests in short
term interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet
lending requirements.

The Bank is required to maintain certain levels of regulatory
capital.  At June 30, 1999, the Bank was in compliance with all
regulatory capital requirements.

Year 2000 Issue

The Company uses a wide range of software and related
technologies throughout its business that will be affected by the
date change in the year 2000.  This date change requires
modification of portions of the Company's software so that its
computer systems will properly recognize dates beyond December
31, 1999.  The Company believes that with the current and planned
upgrades or modifications to existing software and conversion to
new software, the impact of the Year 2000 issue can be mitigated.

The Company believes all of the computerized systems that process
checking accounts, savings accounts, CDs, IRAs, indirect
deposits, ATMs, installment loans, commercial loans, mortgage
loans, and general ledger are ready for the Year 2000.

The Company has established a contingency plan for the period of
time that the Company is going through the century change an is
exposed to the Year 2000 issue.  This plan is designed to address

                              13

<PAGE>

the most likely risk facing the Company during that period.  Some
of these risks include application system failures, power
outages, security systems, and environmental systems.

The Company relies on several third party service providers who
are also affected by the Year 2000 issue.  The Company has worked
closely with these providers to monitor, to the extent possible,
the progress of their Year 2000 efforts.  There can be no
assurance that the potential impact of a major interruption or
failure in the services provided by these companies would not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
condition or results of operations.

The Year 2000 project cost is expected to total approximately
$18,000 of which $10,000 has already been expensed.
