                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

                                  June 30, 1998

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation -

         The accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements for the three and
six months  ended June 30, 1998 include the  accounts of Algiers  Bancorp,  Inc.
(the "Company"), its wholly owned subsidiary, Algiers Homestead Association (the
"Association")  and  its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Algiers.Com,  Inc.,  L.L.C.
("ACI").  Currently,  the business and  management of Algiers  Bancorp,  Inc. is
primarily  the business  and  management  of the  Association.  All  significant
intercompany   transactions   and   balances   have  been   eliminated   in  the
consolidation.  ACI owns a 51% interest in Planet Mortgage, Inc., L.L.C. that is
engaged in the  formation of an Internet site for the  solicitation  of mortgage
loans and the sale of  advertising  space to real estate related  companies.  No
income or expense for the activities of ACI was incurred during this quarter. It
is  anticipated  that the web site will be functional  in the fourth  quarter of
1998.

         On February 5, 1996,  the  Association  incorporated  Algiers  Bancorp,
Inc., to facilitate the conversion of the Association  from mutual to stock form
(the "Conversion").  In connection with the Conversion,  the Company offered its
common stock to the depositors and borrowers of the  Association as of specified
dates, to an employee stock ownership plan and to members of the general public.
Upon  consummation  of the Conversion on July 8, 1996, all of the  Association's
outstanding  common  stock was issued to the  Company,  the  Company  became the
holding  company for the  Association  and the Company  issued 648,025 shares of
common stock.  The  Conversion  was accounted for under the pooling of interests
method of accounting.

         The  accompanying  consolidated  unaudited  financial  statements  were
prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and, therefore,  do not
include  information  or  footnotes  necessary  for a complete  presentation  of
financial  position,  results of operations  and cash flows in  conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.  However, all adjustments  (consisting
only of normal  recurring  accruals)  which,  in the opinion of management,  are
necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated  financial statements have
been included.  The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1998.

Note 3 - Employee Stock Ownership Plan-

         The Company  sponsors a leveraged  employee stock ownership plan (ESOP)
that  covers  all  employees  who have at least  one  year of  service  with the
Company. The ESOP shares initially were pledged as collateral for the ESOP debt.
The debt is being  repaid  based on a ten-year  amortization  and the shares are
being  released for  allocation to active  employees  annually over the ten-year
period. The shares pledged as collateral are deducted from stockholders'  equity
as unearned ESOP shares in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition.

         As  shares  are  released   from   collateral,   the  Company   reports
compensation expense equal to the current market price of the shares.  Dividends
on  allocated  ESOP shares are  recorded as a  reduction  of retained  earnings;
dividends  on  unallocated  ESOP shares are  recorded as a reduction of unearned
ESOP  shares.  ESOP  compensation  expense  was  $38,000 and $35,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,  respectively,  based on the annual release
of shares.

Note 4 - Management Recognition Plan-

         On July 18, 1997,  the Company  established  the 1997  Recognition  and
Retention Plan as an incentive to retain  personnel of experience and ability in
key positions. A total of 25,921 shares of stock of the Company will be acquired
by the Plan

         Plan  share  awards are  earned by  recipients  at a rate of 20% of the
aggregate  number  of  shares  awarded  by the  plan  over  five  years.  If the
employment  of an employee or service as a  non-employee  director is terminated
prior to the fifth  anniversary  of the date of grant of a plan share  award for
any reason other than death,  disability  or  retirement,  the  recipient  shall
forfeit the right to any shares subject to the award which have not been earned.
During the six months  ended June 30, 1998, a total of 4,502 shares were awarded
under the Plan.  Those shares will be taken from the treasury  stock the Company
currently  owns until such time as the total number of shares under the Plan can
be  purchased.  For the six months ended June 30, 1998,  $15,000 was included in
compensation expense for the shares awarded under the Plan in 1998.

                     ALGIERS BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

         The following discussion compares the consolidated  financial condition
of Algiers Bancorp,  Inc. and Subsidiaries at June 30, 1998 to December 31, 1997
and the results of  operations  for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998
with the same periods in 1997. Currently, the business and management of Algiers
Bancorp, Inc. is primarily the business and management of the Association.  This
discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim consolidated financial
statements and footnotes included herein.

         This  quarterly   report   includes   statements  that  may  constitute
forward-looking statements,  usually containing the words "believe," "estimate,"
"project," "expect," "intend" or similar expressions.  These statements are made
pursuant to the safe harbor  provisions  of the  Private  Securities  Litigation
Reform Act of 1995.  Forward-looking  statements  inherently  involve  risks and
uncertainties  that could cause actual results to differ  materially  from those
reflected  in the  forward-looking  statements.  Factors that could cause future
results to vary from current  expectations  include, but are not limited to, the
following:  changes in economic conditions (both generally and more specifically
in the  markets  in which the  Company  operates);  changes in  interest  rates,
deposit  flows,  loan demand,  real estate  values and  competition;  changes in
accounting principles,  policies or guidelines and in government legislation and
regulation  (which  change  from time to time and over which the  Company has no
control); and other risks detailed in this quarterly report and in the Company's
other public filings. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking  statements,  which reflect management's analysis only as of the
date hereof.  The Company  undertakes  no  obligation  to publicly  revise these
forward-looking  statements to reflect events or circumstances  that arise after
the date hereof.

Changes in Financial Condition

         Total  assets  increased  $1.1  million or 2.4% from  $45.3  million at
December 31, 1997 to $46.4  million at June 30, 1998.  The increase in assets is
primarily  due to an  increase  in  deposits,  loans and  investment  securities
available for sale.

         Interest-earning  deposits  in other  banks  and  investments  was $9.5
million at June 30, 1998 and $6.2 million at December 31,  1997.  This  increase
was due to the purchase of $5.3 million of investment  securities during the six
months ending June 30, 1998. These assets currently  provide a higher yield than
mortgage-backed securities and have shorter maturities.

         The  mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio  decreased  $4.0 million or
14.0% from $28.4 million at December 31, 1997 to $24.5 million at June 30, 1998,
as the  amount  of  mortgage-backed  securities  maturing  increased  and no new
mortgage-backed  securities were purchased.  Mortgage-backed securities amounted
to $24.5  million or 52.8% of total assets at June 30,  1998,  compared to $28.4
million or 62.7% of total assets at December 31, 1997.

         Due to an increase in the demand for  single-family  mortgage  loans in
the  Association's  market area,  the loan  portfolio  increased $1.2 million or
13.0% over the past six months from $9.2  million at December  31, 1997 to $10.4
million at June 30, 1998.

         Total deposits  increased $1.5 million or 4.2% to $37.0 million at June
30, 1998 from $35.5 million at December 31, 1997.  The increase was primarily in
certificate of deposit accounts.

         Total  stockholders'  equity  declined by $395,000  during the past six
months.  Net income was $105,000,  and additional paid -in capital  increased by
$13,000,  but these  items were  offset by the  purchase of $432,000 of treasury
stock,  a $32,000  increase  in the reserve for  unrealized  loss on  securities
available-for-sale  during the period, and a $29,000 dividend declared on common
stock.  Stockholders'  equity at June 30, 1998 totaled $9.14 million or 19.7% of
total assets  compared to $9.54 million or 21.1% of total assets at December 31,
1997.

Results of Operations

         The  profitability of the Company depends primarily on its net interest
income,  which  is the  difference  between  interest  and  dividend  income  on
interest-earning  assets,  principally  mortgage-backed  securities,  loans  and
investment  securities,  and interest expense on  interest-bearing  deposits and
borrowings.  Net interest  income is dependent  upon the level of interest rates
and the extent to which such rates are  changing.  The  Company's  profitability
also is dependent,  to a lesser extent, on the level of its non-interest income,
provision for loan losses,  non-interest  expense and income taxes.  For the six
months ended June 30, 1998, net interest income before provision for loan losses
was more than total non-interest  expense.  During the six months ended June 30,
1997,  net interest  income before  provision for loan losses was nominally less
than total  non-interest  expense  due to the  additional  expenses  incurred in
connection  with  the  benefit  plans  that  were  adopted  as a  result  of the
conversion  to  stock.   Total   non-interest   expense   consists  of  general,
administrative and other expenses, such as compensation and benefits,  occupancy
and equipment  expense,  federal insurance  premiums,  and  miscellaneous  other
expenses.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>
         The  Company's  net income  for the three  months  ended June 30,  1998
decreased $48,000 or 47.1% compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997. The
decrease was due to a decrease of $132,000 or 75.0% in  non-interest  income,  a
$3,000 or .7% increase in interest  expense,  and a $5,000 or 30.0%  increase in
income taxes partially  offset by a decrease of $49,000 or 13.7% in non-interest
expenses and an increase of $43,000 or .6% in interest income.

         The  Company's  net  income  decreased  by  $59,000 or 36.0% in the six
months ended June 30, 1998 from the six months ended June 30, 1997. The decrease
was due to a decrease of $141,000 or 66.0% in non-interest  income, which factor
was partially offset by an increase of $32,000 or 4.8% in net interest income, a
decrease of $44,000 or 6.6% in non-interest  expense and a decrease of $6,000 or
11.5% in income tax expense.

         Total  interest  income  increased  by $24,000  or 1.5%  during the six
months ended June 30, 1998  compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997,  due
to an increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets from 6.77% in the
first six  months of 1997 to 7.05% in the first six  months of 1998.  The higher
yield was  partially  offset by a $2.5  million  or 5.47%  decrease  in  average
interest-earning  assets.  The decrease in the average balance was primarily due
to the pay off of a $1.5 million  advance  from the Federal Home Loan Bank,  the
Company's repurchase of $432,000 of common stock since the December 31, 1997 and
the payment of  dividends  on common stock of $60,000.  Total  interest  expense
decreased by $8,000 or 9.0% in the six months  ending June 30, 1998  compared to
the six months ending June 30, 1997, primarily due to decreases in FHLB advances
of $1.5  million and a decrease  in average  deposits of $435,000 or 1.2% in the
first six months of 1998 over the  comparable  1997  period.  The lower  average
balance was partially offset by an increase the average rate on interest-bearing
liabilities to 4.79% from 4.77% over the same period in 1997.

         The increased net interest  income of $32,000 was due to an increase in
the average  interest  rate spread to 2.26% in the first half of 1998 from 2.00%
in the first half of 1997. The higher spread was partially  offset by a decrease
of  $435,000 or 1.2% in net  average  interest-earning  assets in the six months
ended June 30,  1998 over the  comparable  1997  period.  The  average  yield on
interest-earning  assets increased to 7.05% during the six months ended June 30,
1998 compared to 6.77% during the six months ended June 30, 1997.  The increased
yield on assets was  primarily  due to an increase in the average rate earned on
investments.  In the six months ending June 30, 1998, the Company used a portion
of its maturing  mortgage-backed  securities  and  interest-earning  deposits in
other banks to fund the repurchase of $432,000 of its  outstanding  common stock
and to  purchase  $5.3  million of  investments  issued by  agencies of the U.S.
Government.  The average rate on deposits  increased from 4.77% during the first
six months of 1997 to 4.79% during the first six months of 1998.

         During the quarter  ended June 30, 1998  compared to the same period of
1997,  non-interest  income  decreased  $132,000 due to a decrease of $54,000 in
recovery  of GIC bonds  previously  written  off, a $47,000  decrease in service
charges and fees mostly that were  reclassified  to interest  income,  a $40,000
decrease  in  recapture  of  allowance  on GIC bonds,  and a $7,000  decrease in
miscellaneous  income,  partially  offset by a $16,000  increase in gain-sale of
investments.

         The  Association  had no provision or credit for loan losses in the six
months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997. Total non-performing loans at June 30, 1998
was $511,000  compared to $636,000 at December 31, 1997,  and the  allowance for
loan losses at June 30, 1998 was  $445,000  compared to $485,000 at December 31,
1997  attributable to a reduction in the specific  reserve for real estate owned
due to the sale of property that was fully reserved.

         The  decrease in  non-interest  income in the six months ended June 30,
1998 was due to a decrease of $62,000 in recapture of allowance on GIC bonds,  a
decrease of $54,000 in  recovery  of GIC bonds  previously  written  off,  and a
decrease  of $50,000 in  service  charges  and fees,  offset by an  increase  of
$31,000 in gain on sale of investments.

         The $44,000  decrease in total  non-interest  expense in the six months
ended June 30, 1998 was due to an $87,000  decrease in compensation  expense,  a
$7,000  decrease in occupancy  and  equipment  expense and a $4,000  recovery of
provision for losses on real estate owned partially offset by a $22,000 increase
in  professional  services,  an $18,000  increase  in other  expenses,  a $9,000
increase  in  computer  expenses  and a $5,000  increase  in  deposit  insurance
premiums.

         Total non-interest  expense decreased $49,000 in the three months ended
June 30, 1998  compared to the three months ended June 30, 1997 due to a $33,000
decrease in compensation  expense, a $19,000 decrease in professional  services,
an $8,000  decrease in occupancy and equipment,  a $4,000  decrease in provision
for losses on real estate  owned,  and a $1,000  decrease  in real estate  owned
expenses,  partially offset by a $6,000 increase in computer expenses,  a $6,000
increase  in other  expenses,  a $3,000  increase  in FHLB  charges and a $1,000
increase in deposit  insurance  premiums.  The $6,000 increase in other expenses
was due to an increase of $30,000 representing a payment made by the Association
to settle a labor and  personnel  dispute,  partially  offset by a reduction  in
expenses of the Company's  discontinued 70% owned subsidiary Jefferson Community
Lending Corporation, L.L.C.

         The $6,000 or 11.5% decrease in income tax expense was primarily due to
a decrease of $65,000 or 30.1% in pre-tax  income for the six months  ended June
30, 1998 from the comparable  1997 period.  Net income in the first half of 1997
of $164,000 was reduced by the recovery of GIC bonds  previously  written off of
$62,000 that was non-taxable income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The  Association is required under  applicable  federal  regulations to
maintain  specified  levels of "liquid"  investments in qualifying types of U.S.
Government, federal agency and other investments having maturities of five years
or less.  Current OTS regulations  require that a savings  institution  maintain
liquid  assets  of  not  less  than  4% of  its  average  daily  balance  of net
withdrawable  deposit  accounts and  borrowings  payable in one year or less. At
June 30, 1998, the  Association's  liquidity was 18.3% or $6.5 million in excess
of the minimum OTS requirement of 4%.

         The Association is required to maintain  regulatory  capital sufficient
to meet tangible,  core and risk-based  capital ratios of 1.5%,  3.0%, and 8.0%,
respectively. At June 30, 1998, the Association's tangible and core capital both
amounted to $7.3 million or 16.28% of adjusted  total  assets of $44.0  million,
and the Association's  risk-based  capital amounted to $7.5 million or 60.98% of
adjusted risk-weighted assets of $12.3 million.

</TABLE>

         Based on the above capital ratios,  the Association  meets the criteria
for a  "well  capitalized"  institution  at June  30,  1998.  The  Association's
management  believes that under the current  regulations,  the Association  will
continue to meet its minimum capital  requirements  in the  foreseeable  future.
However,  events  beyond  the  control  of the  Association,  such as  increased
interest  rates or a downturn in the economy of the  Association's  area,  could
adversely affect future earnings.

The Year 2000

         The Company is currently  addressing  the computer and data  processing
issues relating to the Year 2000.  Management has completed the assessment phase
and certain hardware and software,  which is not Year 2000 compliant,  have been
identified which will have to be replaced at a cost of approximately $15,000. In
addition,  the  Association's  on-line data  processor  will be replaced with an
in-house  system  that is Year 2000  compliant,  before  the end of the  current
quarter.  The additional  cost of conversion will be  approximately  $20,000 for
additional training and implementation. As of June 30, 1998 approximately $5,000
has been spent on Year 2000  issues.  It is  management's  opinion  that  issues
related to the Year 2000 are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the
Company's   liquidity,   capital   resources  or  results  of  operations  on  a
consolidated basis.
