      Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(1)  Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
     have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted
     Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial
     information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and
     Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not
     include all of the information and footnotes required by
     GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
     management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal
     recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have
     been included.  The results of operations and other data for
     the nine  month period ended March 31, 1997  are not
     necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for
     the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 1997.

     The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
     amounts of IFB Holdings, Inc.  (the "Holding Company") and
     its wholly-owned subsidiary, Investors Federal Bank,
     National Association, (the "Bank"), and the Bank's wholly-
     owned subsidiary, Investors Federal Service Corporation for
     the nine months ended March 31, 1997.  The consolidated
     financial statements for the prior periods include accounts
     of the Bank and its subsidiaries.  Material intercompany
     accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
     consolidation.

(2)  Conversion to Stock Ownership and National Bank

     The Board of Directors of the Bank, on September 23, 1996,
     unanimously adopted a Plan of Conversion pursuant to which
     the Bank converted from a federally chartered mutual savings
     bank to a federally chartered stock savings bank, with the
     concurrent formation of the Holding Company.  The Holding
     Company, on December 30, 1996,  sold 592,523 shares of
     common stock at $10.00 per share  during the subscription
     offering.  The proceeds from the conversion, after
     recognizing conversion expenses and underwriting costs of
     approximately $403,000, were $5,522,000 and are recorded as
     common stock and additional paid in capital on the
     accompanying unaudited consolidated statement of financial
     condition.  The Holding Company utilized approximately
     $2,762,000 of the net proceeds to purchase all of the
     capital stock of the Bank.

     On January 30, 1997, the Bank changed its charter from a
     federally chartered savings bank   to a national bank.

     The Bank has established for eligible employees an Employee
     Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") in connection with the
     conversion.  The ESOP borrowed $474,010 from the Holding
     Company and purchased 47,401 common shares issued in the
     conversion.  The Bank is making the scheduled discretionary
     cash contributions to the ESOP sufficient to service the
     amount borrowed.   To date, the Bank has made payments of
     $43,255 ($33,960 principal) to the Holding Company.   The
     $440,050 ESOP obligation ($474,010 in stock issued by the
     Holding Company on December 30, 1996 less the principal
     payments made by the Bank) is reflected in the accompanying
     consolidated financial statements as a charge to unearned
     compensation and a credit to common stock and paid-in
     capital.  The unamortized balance of unearned compensation
     is shown as a deduction of stockholders' equity.  The unpaid
     balance of the ESOP loan is eliminated in consolidation.

<PAGE>

(3)  Pro Forma Earnings Per Share

     On December 30, 1996, 592,523 shares of the Company's stock
     were issued, including 47,401 shares issued to the ESOP. 
     Earnings per share amounts for the three month and nine
     month  periods ended March 31, 1997 are based upon 547,333
     shares, exclusive of unallocated shares issued to the ESOP,
     as though those shares were outstanding for the entire
     period.   The computation does not reflect the pro forma
     effects of the investment income that would have been earned
     had the net proceeds from conversion been received at the
     beginning of the nine month period.

(4)  Commitments and Contingencies

     Commitments to originate and purchase mortgage loans of
     $859,000 at March 31, 1997, represent amounts which the Bank
     plans to fund within the normal commitment period of sixty
     to ninety days.  As of March 31, 1997, the Bank had no
     commitments to purchase mortgage-backed securities, CMOs or
     investment securities.  The Bank had no commitments
     outstanding to sell mortgage loans, mortgage-backed
     securities, CMOs or investment securities at March 31, 
     1997.

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

General

     IFB Holdings, Inc. was organized, as a Delaware corporation,
in October 1996 at the direction of the Bank's Board of Directors
to acquire all of the capital stock that the Bank issued upon its
conversion from mutual to stock form of ownership.  The business
of the Holding Company consists primarily of the business of the
Bank.  There are no current arrangements, understandings or
agreements to expand its business activities or make any business
acquisitions.

     Investors Federal Bank, National Association was originally
founded in 1934 as a federally chartered savings and loan
association located in Chillicothe, Missouri under the name
Chillicothe Federal Savings and Loan Association.  In 1974, the
Bank changed its name to Investors Federal Savings and Loan
Association, and in 1988 the Bank changed its name to Investors
Federal Bank and Savings Association. On December 30, 1996, the
Bank completed a conversion from mutual to stock ownership.  On
January 30, 1997, the Bank changed its charter to a national bank
charter and its name to Investors Federal Bank, National
Association.  Its deposits are insured up to the maximum
allowable amount by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(the "FDIC").  The Bank serves Livingston, Caldwell, and Daviess
Counties, Missouri.  The Bank conducts business through its main
office and two branches located in Hamilton and Gallatin,
Missouri.

     The Bank's business strategy is to operate as a well-
capitalized, profitable and independent community financial
institution dedicated to home-mortgage lending and to providing
quality service to its customers.  The Bank intends to implement
this strategy by (i) closely monitoring the needs of its
customers and providing quality service; (ii) maintaining asset
quality; (iii) utilizing investments in mortgage-backed
securities and other investment securities to invest excess funds
and to increase net interest income; (iv) maintaining capital in
excess of the regulatory requirements; (v) attempting to increase
the Bank's earnings; (vi) managing interest rate risk by
attempting to match asset and liability maturities and rates.

     The earnings of the Bank  depend primarily on its net
interest income, which is the difference between interest earned
on its loans and investments and the interest paid on its
interest-bearing liabilities, consisting of deposits and FHLB
advances.  The Bank, like other financial institutions, is
subject to interest-rate risk to the degree that its interest-
earning assets mature or reprice at different times, or on
different bases, than its interest-bearing liabilities.  The
Bank's operating results are also affected by the amount of its
noninterest income, including gain on the sales of investments,
service charges, and other income.  Non-interest expense consists 
primarily of employee compensation, occupancy expenses, FDIC
insurance premiums and other general and administrative expenses. 
 The Bank's operating results are significantly affected by
general economic and competitive conditions, in particular, the
changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions
by regulatory authorities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Bank's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents,
which includes short-term investments.   The levels of these
assets are dependent on the Bank's lending, investing, operating,
and deposit activities during any given period.  At March 31,
1997 and June 30, 1996, cash and cash equivalents totalled $2.4
million and $2.1 million, respectively.

     The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits, FHLB
advances, repayments on loans, the 


maturity of investment securities and income from operations. 
While maturity and scheduled

<PAGE>

amortization of loans and investment securities are predictable
sources of funds, deposit inflows and mortgage prepayments are
greatly influenced by local conditions, general interest rates
and regulatory changes.

           The primary investment activity of the Bank is the
origination and purchase of mortgage loans.  Another investment
activity of the Bank is the investment of funds in U.S. agency
bonds, mortgage-backed and related securities, collateralized
mortgage obligations and FHLB overnight funds.  During periods
when the Bank's loan demand is limited, the Bank may purchase
short-term investment securities to obtain a higher yield than
otherwise available.

     At March 31, 1997, the Bank had outstanding loan commitments
of $859,000.  The Bank anticipates it will have sufficient funds
available to meet its commitments.  Certificates of deposit that
were scheduled to mature in one year or less at March 31, 1997
were $13.3 million.  Management believes that a significant
portion of such deposits will remain with the Bank.

     Under federal law, the Bank is required to meet certain
leverage and risk-based capital requirements.  The leverage ratio
requires a minimum ratio of "Tier 1 capital" to adjusted total
assets.  At March 31, 1997, the Bank exceeded both of the 
capital requirements.  The Bank's capital ratios were:   11.13%
leverage capital and 27.14% risk-based capital.  The Bank had
"Tier 1 capital"  of $5.8 million at March 31, 1997 and risk-
based capital of $6 million.

Financial Condition

     Total assets increased $2.2 million, or 4.2%, to $54.8
million at March 31, 1997 from $52.6 million at June 30, 1996. 
This was primarily the result of increases of $2 million, or
930.2%, in investment securities held-to-maturity.   The increase
in investment securities held-to-maturity was due to the sale of
IFB Holdings, Inc. common stock, which generated net proceeds of
$5 million on December 30, 1996, after deducting a $474,010  loan
by IFB Holdings, Inc. for the purchase of common stock by the
Employee Stock Ownership Plan.   

     FHLB Advances decreased $2.8 million, or 20.7%, to $10.7
million at March 31, 1997,  from $13.5 million at June 30, 1996. 
Proceeds from the sales of mortgage-backed and related 
securities as well as proceeds from the sale of IFB Holdings,
Inc. common stock were used to pay down the advances.

     Total equity increased $5.2 million, or 157.6%, from $3.3
million at June 30, 1996 to $8.5 million at March 31, 1997.  The
increase was primarily due to the sale of IFB Holdings, Inc.
common stock.  In addition, net income during the nine months
ended March 31, 1997 was $173,000 and net unrealized loss on
investment securities available-for-sale, net of taxes, increased
$4,000.

Asset Quality

     The Bank regularly reviews interest earning assets to
determine proper valuation.  Management's monitoring of the asset
portfolio includes reviews of historical loss experience, known
and inherent risks in the portfolio, the value of any underlying
collateral, prospective economic conditions and the regulatory
environment.  The Banks non-accrual mortgage loans decreased from
$118,000 at June 30, 1996 to $90,000 at March 31, 1997.

     The table on the following page sets forth information
regarding the Bank's non-accrual loans and foreclosed real estate
at the dates indicated.  The Bank discontinues accruing interest
on delinquent loans no later than ninety days past due.  At March
31, 1997, the Bank has no restructured loans within the meaning
of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 15.

Results of Operations

     Comparisons of quarterly results in this section are between
the three month periods ended March 31, 1997, and March 31, 1996
and between the nine month periods then ended.

General

     Net income for the third quarter ended March 31, 1997 was
$130,000, an increase of $28,000 or 27.5% from the $102,000 net
income for the third quarter ended March 31, 1996.  Net income
for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, was $173,000, a
decrease of $136,000 or 44% from the $309,000 net income for the
comparable period ended March 31, 1996.

Interest Income

     There was little change in interest income of $961,000 for
the quarter ended March 31, 1997, as compared to $963,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996.  However, interest on investment
securities increased $21,000, or 39.6% from $53,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996, to $74,000 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1997 due to the increase in the amount of investment
securities owned during the period.  In addition, interest on
other earning assets increased $28,000, or 233.3% from $12,000
for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, to $40,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997.  The increase was a result of the proceeds
from the conversion temporarily being invested in interest
earning deposits in other institutions.  Interest income for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 was $2.9 million, an increase of
$200,000, or 7.4% over the same period ended March 31, 1996.  
The increase  resulted primarily from an increase in interest on
loans receivable, investment securities, and other interest
earning assets.  Interest on mortgage loans increased $88,000, or
5.3% for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the
same period ended March 31, 1996.  Interest on investment
securities increased $61,000, or 45.9%, from $133,000 to $194,000
for the nine months ended March 31, 1997.   Interest on other
interest earning assets increased 43,000, or 153.6% for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period ending
March 31, 1996.  

Interest Expense

     Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 was
$556,000 as compared to $597,000 for the quarter ended March 31,
1996, a decrease of $41,000, or 6.9%.  Interest on advances from
FHLB was $163,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, as
compared to $190,000 for the same period ended March 31, 1996, a
decrease of $27,000 or 14.2%.  The decrease was due to a decrease
in the amount of advances outstanding during the three month
period.     Interest expense for the nine months ended March 31,
1997 was $1.8 million as compared to $1.7 million for the nine
months ended March 31, 1996, an increase of 5.9%.  The increase
is the result of increases in Federal Home Loan Bank advances
over the comparable period last year.

Net Interest Income

     Net interest income before provisions for loan losses was
$405,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, as compared to
$366,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, an increase of
$39,000 or 10.7%.  Net interest income before provisions for loan
losses was $1.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1997,
as compared to $999,000  for the nine months ended March 31,
1996, an increase of $101,000 or 10.1%.

Noninterest Income

     Noninterest income was $63,000 for the quarter ended March
31, 1997 as compared to $67,000 for the quarter ended March 31,
1996, a decrease of $4,000 or 6%.  Noninterest income was
$204,000 for the nine months

<PAGE>

ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $254,000 for the nine months
ended March 31, 1996, a decease of $50,000 or 19.7%.   Gains on
the sales of mortgage-backed and related securities increased
$5,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, as compared to the
quarter ended March 31, 1996, but decreased $25,000, or 64.1% for
the nine months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period
ended March 31, 1996.   In addition, income from fees and service
charges decreased $9,000 or 15.5% from $58,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, to $49,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997.  For the nine months ended March 31, 1997,
income from service charges and fees was $159,000, a decrease of
$45,000 or 22% as compared to the same period ended March 31,
1996.

Noninterest expense

     Noninterest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1997

March 31, 1996 to $256,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

as compared to $770,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996,

increase of compensation and benefits as well as  principal
payments  made on the ESOP loan .  In addition, for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997, SAIF insurance premiums increased
$209,000 or 307.4% as compared to the nine months ended March 31,
1996, due to a special one-time SAIF assessment incurred on
September 30, 1996.

$27,000, or 49.1%, from $55,000 for the quarter ended March 31,
1996, to $82,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.  The
increase is due to an increase in income for the quarter.  The
provision for federal and state income taxes decreased $58,000 to
$112,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to
