NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared in
   accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
   financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10
   of Regulation S-X.  Certain information required for a complete presentation
   in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles has been omitted.
   All adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
   presentation of the interim financial statements have been included.  The
   results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998, are
   not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire
   fiscal year or any interim period.

   On March 31, 1998, in accordance with its plan of conversion and
   reorganization Pocahontas Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") sold 3,570,750 shares
   of common stock at a price per share of $10.00. In addition, each of the
   769,924 shares of common stock of Pocahontas Federal Savings & Loan
   Association (the "Bank"), held by public stockholders were exchanged for
   4.0245 shares of common stock of the Company in accordance with the Plan of
   Conversion and Agreement and Plan or Reorganization. At March 31, 1998 the
   Company had 6,669,309 outstanding shares of common stock.  Financial
   information presented is for the Company, except for periods prior to
   conversion and reorganization, which are for the Bank, except for
   classifications within stockholders' equity in the condensed consolidated
   statement of financial condition and earnings per common share.

   The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the
   consolidated financial statements and notes of the Bank, including a summary
   of significant accounting policies followed by the Company, included in the
   Annual Report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997.  The accompanying
   unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
   Company and the Bank. The intercompany accounts of the Company and the Bank
   have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

   The earnings per share amounts were computed using the weighted average
   number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. In accordance with
   Statement of Position No. 93-6, Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock
   Ownership Plans, issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
   Accountants, shares owned by the Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan that
   have not been committed to be released are not considered to be outstanding
   for the purpose of computing earnings per share.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Pocahontas Bancorp, Inc.
Pocahontas, Arkansas

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial
condition of Pocahontas Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 1997,
and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and cash flows for
the three-month and six-month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997.  These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated statement of financial condition of Pocahontas
Federal Savings and Loan Association and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1997
(see Note 1 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements),
and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and
cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report
dated October 30, 1997, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth in
the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial condition as of
September 30, 1997, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to
the consolidated statement of financial condition from which it has been
derived.

ITEM 2

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

Financial Condition at March 31, 1998, as compared to September 30, 1997

Total assets increased $17.3 million or 4.5% to $400.7 million at March 31,
1998, as compared to $383.4 million at September 30, 1997.  This increase was
primarily due to an increase of $15.4 million, or 9.6%, in the loan portfolio.
The growth in the loan portfolio was due to continued strong loan demand in the
Company's local market.

Deposits increased $37.4 million or 26.0% to $180.8 million primarily due to the
acquisition of deposits and premises and equipment of three branches located
within the Bank's market area. As a result of this transaction, deposits
increased $27.9 million. The remainder of the increase was due to increased
activity within the Bank's market area.

FHLB advances decreased $71.1 million or 37.3%. This decrease was due to the
increase in deposits discussed above and the new equity discussed below. The
cash resulting from these transactions was used to repay FHLB advances.

Stock subscription refunds payable increased $36.6 million to $36.6 million due
to oversubscriptions in the stock offering discussed below and the resulting
requirement to refund such subscriptions.  Funding for these refunds will come
primarily from increases in FHLB advances.

The Company concluded its second step stock offering, as described in Note 1 to
the condensed consolidated financial statements, on March 31, 1998 and raised
approximately $33 million of new equity.  The proceeds of such offering were
used primarily to repay FHLB advances.

Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 1998 and 1997

For the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Bank had net income of $668,000
as compared to $642,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, an increase
of $26,000 or 4.0%.  The increase in net income was primarily attributable to an
increase in net interest income after provision for loan losses of $421,000 or
23.5% and an increase in other income of $46,000 or 14.7%.  The increase in net
interest income was primarily due to a change in the Bank's asset/liability mix.
See management's discussion of financial condition.  The change in the Bank's
asset/liability mix resulted in an increase in the net interest margin to 2.3%
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to 2.0% for the three months
ended December 31, 1997 and an increase in the interest rate spread to 2.2% at
March 31, 1998 compared to 1.8% at December 31, 1997.

The increase in net interest income was partially offset by an increase in
operating expenses of $407,000 or 36.5%.  The increase in operating expense was
primarily attributable to an increase in compensation expense. Compensation
expense increased due to an increase in number of personnel due to branches
increasing 50% and due to increases in compensation resulting from changes in
responsibility for certain employees.

For the six months ended March 31, 1998, the Bank had net income of $1,246,000
as compared to $1,226,000 for the six months ended March 31, 1997, an increase
of $20,000 or 1.6%.  The increase in net income was primarily attributable to an
increase in net interest income after provision for loan losses of $478,000 or
13.2%.  The increase in net interest income was partially offset by an increase
in operating 


                                       7
<PAGE>
 
expenses of $419,000 or 17.5%. The increase in operating expenses for the six-
month period were approximately the same as those for the three-month period
discussed above.

Non-performing Loans and Loan Loss Provisions

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses
based on management's quarterly asset classification review and evaluation of
the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of
its loan activity.  Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans of
which full collection may not be reasonably assured, considers among other
matters, the estimated value of collateral, cash flow analysis, historical loan
loss experience, and other factors that warrant recognition in providing
adequate allowances.  No provision for loan losses was made during the six month
period ended March 31, 1998, compared to $60,000 for the same period in 1997.
Management believes that the current allowance for loan loss is adequate to
absorb possible loan losses in the existing portfolio. However, future reviews
may require additional provisions.

The following table sets forth information regarding loans delinquent for 90
days or more and real estate owned by the Bank on the dates indicated.

It is the policy of the Bank to place loans 90 days or more past due on a non-
accrual status by establishing a specific interest reserve that provides for a
corresponding reduction in interest income.  Delinquent loans 90 days or more
past due decreased $464,000 or 98.7% during the six month period ended March 31,
1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Regulatory liquidity is defined as a percentage of the institution's average
daily balance of net withdrawable deposits and current borrowings, invested with
final maturities no longer than five years.  The Office of Thrift Supervision
requires 1.0% total liquidity.  The Bank's average liquidity ratio during March
1998 was 11.4% compared to 5.17% during the month of September 1997.  At March
31, 1998, the Bank was in compliance with all liquidity requirements.

At March 31, 1998, the Bank had outstanding loan commitments of $10.4 million.
Funding of these commitments will be accomplished by utilizing cash resources
from deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and/or repurchase agreements,
principal and interest payments from loans and investments.
